Featured Resorts

Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort

This is one of Waikiki’s most historic hotels, originally opened in 1901, and the second floor has a nice display describing the legacy of this establishment. Their three buildings surround a century-old banyan tree that lends an air of timelessness to the...

Hilton Hawaiian Village

Where do we start? We’ve reviewed every resort in Hawai‘i, and this is the biggest kahuna of them all. On a typical day they’ll have over 6,000 guests serviced by 1,700 employees, which practically qualifies it as a small town. If you’re looking for a pulsating,...

Four Seasons Resort Oahu at Ko Olina

This Four Seasons opened its doors in 2016 after a $250 million renovation to the former JW Marriott Ihilani Resort. Although the entry and footprint don't feel much different to us than the former hotel, many amenities have been added to bring it up to Four...

Embassy Suites Waikiki Beach Walk

This resort sits on top of the Waikiki Beach Walk shopping center. The Hula Tower is closest to the water, and the Aloha Tower has most of its ocean views blocked by the resort in front of them. The resort doesn’t feel like a contemporary Hawaiian resort. The lobby...

Sheraton Waikiki

Although there are bigger resorts, this 31-story tower is the biggest single hotel building in all Hawai‘i. It’s so big you can actually get lost in the hallways, which keep going and going and going. You can do a lot of walking at this sprawling hotel, which can...

The Kahala Hotel & Resort

Typically this resort is ranked among the world’s best hotels—for good reasons. This is probably our favorite O‘ahu resort. It has all the trappings of a big, fun destination resort without any of the annoyances, like waiting in line or crowds. The Kahala isn’t in...

Hyatt Centric Waikiki Beach

This is probably the only "new" resort in Waikiki that, unlike others, wasn't a resort before it opened in late 2016. It had a previous life as an office building, which gives it some added benefits, such as 12-foot ceilings, unique room layouts and a lobby on the...

Hilton Waikiki Beach

The hotel feels geared toward the business traveler with many amenities and no resort fee. Rooms are clean and very modern with their trademark Serenity beds and 42-inch TVs that you can connect to your computer. Rooms either face the mountains (which are very...
