Beautiful Hotel
Me, my wife & 2 small daughters stayed in an oceanfront room for Fathers Day weekend. The location was amazing, overlooking the beach with a great view of Diamond head & the swimming pool directly on the water. The kiddy pool was great for my toddler & my older daughter loved the waterslides & hot tubs. We had sunset drinks & appetizers at the Rumfire bar after an afternoon swim & it was excellent.
My room was fair sized, well maintained, clean & the patio had the best view ever. I saw at least 5 turtles swimming below my room & watched the paddle surfers catch waves as I sipped on cold beers, a very enjoyable experience. The pool & beach were never overcrowded & the guests were mostly families & friendly Japanese tourists.
The only drawback is the food was very exensive, but we were glad they conveniently have a Baskin robbins & Peets cofee. There are cheaper places to eat & go shopping at the nearby International marketplace or if you have a rental car like we did, you can save a little money by driving over to Safeway for drinks & snacks. We ate on Kapahulu ave & every day we would cruise over to Shimazu shaved ice nearby on School st.
We visited Hanauma bay, Sea Life park, Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki beach, Pearl Harbor & Nuuani Pali lookout. Overall the experience was awesome, I would highly recommend this Hotel.
