The Royal Hawaiian just a beautiful hotel & property. Their beach has hawaiian Blue water! Breathtaking views. You’re able to reserve 2 sun loungers & umbrella for a small fee(reserve in advance). Pool is wonderful too. It looks small but it does provide a comfortable surroundings w/food & beverage service. We reserved an Outrigger Canoe Surf experience-outstanding! The hotel & staff first class - The Prime location on Waikiki Beach amazing. Food choices are plenty from the Bakery, Mai Tai’s for live music, bar, & food. You can step out for food with a short 3 minute walk & many other choices within 5-10 min walk. Go & see the hotel it’s so lovely… historical too (take the free tour @ hotel) You’ll love it too🌺

The hotel was amazing. We celebrated my wife's birthday recently. We were also upgraded to their "Apaka Suite" which was a surprise for us. The views of the hotel grounds were beautiful as we got to see the garden, ocean, and pool views from our three balconies. The one unfortunate event was that we had a bug problem, but house keeping was quick and came to clean the area in our room.

We upgraded to the Mailani Tower to ocean front rooms and we did not regret it. We spent so much time enjoying the patio. Especially, in the mornings and evenings. The hotel itself is beautiful. It is centrally located to so many shops and places to eat. We didn’t even rent a car. We took the trolley, Uber or walked everywhere.
