We greatly enjoyed our 5 nights at Ko’olina. The cost stretched our budget, and we expected a 5-star experience. We are happy to report that we got it.
The beach villa was very nice and much calmer than the mega-properties on either side (Marriott and Disney). But this is a matter of taste.
I recommend skipping the luau at nearby Paradise Cove — hot, dusty, touristy, mediocre food. Dancers were quite good, however.
