Hands-down, this was absolutely the best location in Waikiki to stay. We were literally two blocks from the most famous beach in the world and Duke’s statue. We could easily walk to shops and restaurants. Directly next-door to the hotel is a place where we were able to rent a scooter for two. There were also plenty of spots to eat right by the hotel that were fantastic, including a barbecue spot directly across the street. The balcony was fabulous and we spent tons of time relaxing and enjoying the view and the sounds of the city. We loved having the kitchen and even had Instacart deliver groceries early in our stay. The staff at the hotel was extremely helpful and overall we had no complaints. A fantastic stay! We super appreciated the beach chairs and used them almost daily.
