yes they have issues but we loved it.

first the criticisms you will read on trip advisor are generally true: -no room service -pool very small - very limited pool service -no plants in the hotel itself - management standoffish - mai tai bar food limited and pricey but we just spent five awesome night there and i give it five stars. here is what i would say - if you visit in late september when all the kids are in school, the hotel is not crowded at all. no issue getting seats by the pool. no issue getting beach seats if you want them. we didn’t. we got our spot by the pool every day as our home base - the surfing is awesome!! we had a range of surfer from a beginner dad to very good kids and there is a perfect surf break for everyone some where nearby. advanced surfers can go to kaisers or ala moana bowl and beginners will be very happy at canoes in front of the hotel. the hotel also has a cage which you can use to lock up your board at night. this is a huge perk. you can rent a board from big wave dave’s for a week and get a great rate and leave it in the cage over night. no charge. - there is no need to eat in the hotel there are literally hundreds of awesome restaurants right outside your door within a few so that’s blocks in waikiki. we had awesome sushi and korean barbecue and acai bowls! - the historic rooms we had were great! yes there is no ocean view but you soon realize tue garden views are gorgeous. the royal palms garden is really amazing. the historic rooms we had were also BIG and has been recently redone. i am super picky about deteriorated rooms and mine was immaculate. the bedwas huge and comfortable - the yoga was great. i practice daily at at studio at home in california and was just delighted with the 8 am yoga on the grass so that’s it. my two sons and i loved it.

This lived up to its reputation and our expectations. ended in the tower on the top floor. it was just fantastic. right on the beach, bar was great, staff most accommodating and friendly. valet service was excellent. close to all the restaurants, shops etc in Waikiki.
