Top 5 Hotel in Hawaii

Marriott Vacation Club, 2249 Poipu Rd, Koloa, HI 96756, United States

“Best beaches ever! Every day, I saw either sea turtles or seals. Service was pretty dang good. 👌 I stayed there for two weeks, worry-free, knowing that the very friendly staff would take care of my every need. Recommend staying here.”

4-820 Kuhio Hwy Suite 1, Kapaʻa, HI 96746, United States

“Very nice resort. Pool was excellent and loved that there were three hot tubs and that they all had sand at the bottom. Also liked the free beach chairs even though the beach is not really useful for swimming or snorkeling. It still was nice for watching the sunrise and relaxing to the sound of waves coming in.”

555 Kaukahi St, Wailea, HI 96753, United States

“An amazing experience. The suites were well furnished, clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Don't forget the amazing shower and soaker tub. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was excellent. It's an adult only resort, which made the atmosphere more relaxed. The resort isn't cheap, but neither is the experience. 👍”

69-550 Waikōloa Beach Dr, Waikoloa Village, HI 96738, United States

“Many reasons for my ratings 1. When I called about a crib for my infant I could not get an answer if there was one available. It seems like an easy math problem to me, since all you have to do is calculate the number of cribs vs the number of people requesting. I was told it was first come first serve, which again doesn’t help since I need to know if I should bring one with me on the plane or if that is one less thing I would need to bring for my family of 5. It’s about convenience and customer service. Also, it’s not peak season so it shouldn’t have been that hard when we asked. 2. In the room there were cockroaches and wine glasses with lipstick stains on them, might as well toss those since you can’t get it out and it’s just a bad look. There was also no dish soap to wash the dishes. 3. When booking this reservation, when checking in and during our marketing tour, I specifically asked if we would have access to the pools of all the different Hilton properties around since we were staying at one and of course I was told yes. After packing up my three children and our pool equipment and driving over to Kingsland we were then rejected and told we were given wrong information. I have a 7, 5 and 1 year old so I’m sure you can imagine my disappointment to find that out. It takes a lot of work to even travel 5 minutes down the road with all of them let alone with our pool gear! As a courtesy it would have been beneficial to just let us enjoy the couple hours there, but instead we were told we had no access. 4. At the pool when requesting towels for our family. We were told that we are supposed to receive them at check in, which we didn’t and that we need to request the from our room, so even though we have our room key and our information we had to go back to the room, request the towels, wait 20-30 minutes and then be given our towels that were already at the front desk which was connected to the pool. I’m sorry, what kind of game are we playing here? I’m already at the pool, just look up our info and give me our towels! It just seems to me that the staff are very good about telling you what they think you want to hear vs what I actually want to hear, which is the truth. I have three kids and we love going on these trips and having the space, but I need accurate information so I’m not shuffling them around and wasting our time for no reason. If we do buy a timeshare it most likely wont be with Hilton because of this experience on this trip. It was inconvenient and lacked good customer service. If the tour was more about truth then I could have invested our time and money into it for our future vacations. Overall the location and space of the rooms and the whole suit are great and needed for our family, we loved the pool and water slide at Kohala and the views and lagoon at Hilton Waikoloa Village, but I’d most likely find another company that will be honest with me and give me the information needed to make my life easier instead of causing more issues.”

9400 Kaumualii Hwy, Waimea, HI 96796, United States

“Could not have picked a better place to stay for our honeymoon! Got the Ocean Front cottage, and it was absolutely perfect. Fell asleep to the sound of the waves, woke up to the sound of the birds, and no other noises the entire time! So peaceful and intimate. We preferred this very much so to any of the condos or hotels in the more touristy areas. The interior of the cottage was nothing fancy, but it was spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. Felt very authentic for the locale. The staff was super friendly, too; and it was a short drive into town for breakfast and tasty coffee in the mornings. 10/10.”

69-450 Waikōloa Beach Dr, Waikoloa Village, HI 96738, United States

“We come here every year, but this time around it feels like some of the rooms are falling into disrepair. We had a "newly remodeled" room, but all they have done is put in new flooring and new couch and dining chairs. Everything else has been left the same. We also found things were missing in the kitchen such as pans, bowls and silverware. We only had two of four teaspoons, so we had to wash every time we ate. We had a broken screen door, broken ceiling fan, and grout in the shower that needed serious attention. The grounds are immaculate and the staff friendly and accommodating, but they need to pay attention to what's going on inside.”

2426 Kūhiō Ave., Honolulu, HI 96815, United States

“Absolutely wonderful experience. Breakfast was the best part of the trip. Delicious fresh breakfast every AM. 2 blocks from beach. Loved that the beach rental room was open to come and go as you please and you don’t have to check items out at the front desk. Hotel was very clean and relaxing. Beds were comfortable. Rooms are a tiny bit small but not an issue for two people. Highly recommend.”

79-7346 Mamalahoa Hwy, Kealakekua, HI 96750, United States

“Me and my family did the facility tour and not only was the experience amazing but so we’re the staff. The process they go through to make such high quality products for us is fantastic. The manager and our tour guide were extremely welcoming and made sure we had a great time during our visit. The coffee and bakery treats were delicious and i can’t wait to brew some of my own.”

Marriott Vacation Club, 3325 Holokawelu Wy, Lihue, HI 96766, United States

“Awesome views, the landscaping is spectacular, the rooms (we had a 2 BR) are big and clean. We had a view of the pool and the bay which was stunning. This is a calm and relaxing resort in a secluded area of the Island surrounded by a golf course, the bay, lagoons another Marriott resort and, oh yeah the Airport. Even though the place is near the airport, it is not a very active airport so it really isn't an issue. The staff is great as well. The one thing this is NOT is a beach resort. They do have beach chairs available to take to other beaches but there is no beach here. Since it is a Hawaiian resort you might assume there is a beach. There is no beach. However, knowing that going in you can find other beautiful beaches on the island. You are allowed to use the beach at the other Marriott resort down the street, but since this fair skinned Irish lad needs shade, without an umbrella, this was not an option for us. Also, there is no restaurant or bar on premises. This is not that uncommon for Marriott Vacation locations. We have stayed in two other locations that were also sans bar and restaurant, Tucson Arizona and Absecon NJ, but still it would be nice to have a pool bar. Not sure why they don't, as there is plenty of room for one. All-in-all, if you set your expectations based on what this place does NOT have, it really is a lovely place. Very lovely, in fact.”

19-3948 Old Volcano Rd, Volcano, HI 96785, United States

“Best food in Volcano, but you'll pay for it. Volcano has very few places to eat, and they close on random nights - on the night we went, this was the only one open. Be prepared to pay near-Oahu-hotel-level prices for very good but not outstanding food & drinks. Popular and good, though.”

99-252 Crater Rim Drive, Volcano, HI 96785, United States

“The people are nice but the room keys get demagnetized pretty easily. The location is unbeatable though. It’s in the middle of Kilauea Volcano National Park so it a short way to crater views and the visitor center. It’s dark at night so you can see all the stars. One of my favorite place to stay.”

2181 Kalākaua Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815, United States

“The Hokulani is a great location and I would recommend it to those traveling and want a more urban stay. The bathroom itself was beautiful and spacious. The staff was friendly and responsive. You’re right in the midst of the beach, food and shopping, and a quick trip for different excursions around the island.”

1 Manele Bay Rd, Lanai City, HI 96763, United States

“Our ocean front room was spectacular !!!We even had a tv inside the mirror in our bathroom—loved that!!! We were celebrating my birthday and upcoming retirement so they left a very nice note in our room and a huge cheese and fruit tray and a bottle of wine. Everything here is pure perfection. We had lunch reservations at their Views restaurant and were taken there in a Tesla where the rear doors lifted like wings. The restaurant provided amazing views and we ordered a lobster, scallop and shrimp salad that was sooooo delicious. We’ve learned to get 2 entrees and share them. The other was the most tender & tasty filet mignon. If it wasn’t for the pictures I’d have thought this was a dream. Our room was perfectly situated to watch the beautiful sunrise. Afterwards we enjoyed a satisfyingly delicious breakfast of lobster and ahi tuna eggs Benedict. We then spent the day enjoying the adults only pool with a waterfall and lava rock hot tub. Just as Cinderella’s evening had to end, so did our stay. We enjoyed every single moment while here before flying off in one of their private jets back to Oahu. Thank you to each and every staff member that made our stay so memorable!!!!”

Kaua'i, 520 Aleka Loop, Kapaʻa, HI 96746, United States

“We really enjoyed our stay here. Very pleasantly surprised at the beach front location. Although the beach is not swimmable it is great to have right outside your door! Restaurant on site was great, the food and service were awesome. We …”

2885 Kalākaua Ave, Honolulu, HI 96815, United States

“Great place to stay and to chill out. Quiet and great views from the upper floors. | Walking distance to Waikiki. Hotel is clean and well maintained. ||Staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Melissa Y, the front desk manager, who …”

75-6040 Ali‘i Dr, Kailua-Kona, HI 96740, United States

“Very nice resort, we experienced a quiet stay. Location to town is great, however a rental car is suggested. The staff were all fantastic. The pools are right by the shoreline so to sit and listen to the waves crashing is very relaxing. The only thing that would make it much better would be if a restaurant was on site for the days you don’t feel like cooking or going into town to eat.”

3411 Wilcox Rd, Lihue, HI 96766, United States

“Room is excellent. Just needed more towels and blanket and after hours security not working.||Otherwise the room was excellent and surrounding was good. It was quiet, and it looks like someone live their also , like long term. I like the room cause we can cook breakfast before we headed out.||||Mahalo for everything.”

5520 Ka Haku Rd, Princeville, HI 96722, United States

“We had the most fabulous time at One Hotel, Hanalei Bay! We were instantly transported to paradise from the moment we walked inside. All of our experiences exceeded our expectations, from the incredible service, the amenities, the stunning views, and delicious food/cocktails. The absolute best view of Kauai and Hanalei Bay. Vincent went above and beyond for our group, and was so accommodating and friendly. We really enjoyed our time spent at the pool taking in the stunning views of the bay. Mo was our server and he really took care of us. We plan to come back again and again, we can not recommend this serene hotel enough!”

450 Lewers St, Honolulu, HI 96815, United States

“Great hotel that was exactly as described. Property is older (like most Waikiki hotels) but they have done a great job. Our room was comfortable, spacious, AC worked great, and had a little kitchenette which was very convenient. Hotel has beach chairs, umbrellas and extra goodies for guests to use. The location is excellent, walking distance to everything and with a biki bike station out front. What I loved most about this hotel though was the staff - they were so friendly, helpful and kind. Will definitely stay here again on a future trip - in Hawaii, I need something comfortable, safe and decent as I plan to spend almost of my time outdoors, not in my hotel room. This hotel is spot on for that!”

5031 Hana Hwy, Hana, HI 96713, United States

“Beautiful old school resort in Hawaii. Not everyone's cup of tea since it really is very isolated. Perfect romantic getaway. The staff are absolutely a delight and all seem very excited to work there. One of the employees took the time to ask me about all the best Hyatt experiences in my travels. If you take a look at the parking situation you will need a map and also probably need one of the staff with a golf cart to help if you have any ADA concerns. Rooms are clean if generally a little dated. No TVs but AC was available in our suite. We stayed in the Oceanfront Bungalow Premier Suite and the bathroom was clearly updated and refurbished versus the photos on the website. Wifi is a little weak for any serious work at all but it does make up for the spotty cell service. Globalist recognition was excellent. Honeymoon amenity was provided in addition to a paid spa amenity basket (I paid out of pocket). Food and drinks in the hotel restaurant were excellent. The main pool was absolutely gorgeous. The views from the Adirondack chairs are amazing at night with the waves and the clear stars at night. Wished on a shooting star on our last night that we'd be back!”
