Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort
Room was nice. Hotel was nice. In a great location. I disliked that kids were not allowed use floaties in the pool. Even when there was a private adult only pool.

Prince Waikiki
Yes, we didnt use any incidentals. But for someone in a pinch, they were well stocked.

The Twin Fin Hotel
Overall it was a great stay and we will definitely be back. Great amenities and the convenience of the Tikis Bar & Grill was so sweet!! The only thing I wish was available is… to have the gym open 24 hours. Closing at 10pm is unnecessary when a hotel is open with staff 24 hours a day.
