Hotels near Sans Souci State Recreational Park, Honolulu

Booked this in 2019 for our 20th anniversary and had to cancel due to COVID and they said they would honor my booked rate for the next year. Had to cancel again and they honored my price for 2022! I was impressed with that. Hotel is in a great location-you can play in the ocean and see Diamond Head and we were lucky enough to spot two sea turtles. (one was a baby) You can walk to International Market Place, Al Moana shopping center, and Beach Walk Street with many good Restaurants. and Lewers Street. Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center down the street also. We didn't get a rental car and took an uber 4 times and had several tours booked where you get picked up and dropped off. Much cheaper than a rental car and having to pay $50 a night just to park the rental car at the hotel. Hotel was in definite need of a remodel. Was told would have a higher level room and put on first floor. We requested to move next day. Moved to 9th floor. Room was clean, hotel was clean, restaurant was very clean. People were friendly. Lots to do on Oahu. A lot of people here.

The Sheraton Waikiki has the best location. It’s minutes away from a big outlet mall with many food options and has direct access to the beach. The rooms are updated and modern and you have great views of Diamond Head. Many tour groups also depart from the bus depot next to the hotel entrance so that’s also very convenient.

very good location..infront of Nordstrom Rack Waikiki and a block away to the famous Marugame Udon..the room was outdated but very spacious, had 2 queen size beds and 1 single bed, and has a kitchen with stove top. Microwave oven and kettle upon request..will definitely book again next time

Apartments (condominiums) and hotels are integrated and not classified by floor or tower. Residents and long-term residents are mixed. There is a front desk, and spaces such as mailboxes are the same as in apartment complexes. There is a swimming pool, gym, sauna, barbecue, convenience store, water server, and laundry on the 6th floor. Gym costs $5 extra. No housekeeping due to corona. Towels can be exchanged at the front desk. Inadequate room cleaning. Rather than calling it a hotel, it's better to think that some rooms in an apartment are treated as a hotel. You can't enter the building without a card key, and the gatekeeper is stationed separately from the front desk, so security is normal. Because it is an AQUA system, you can enter HoMA and Bishop for free with a card key.

So....got a great rate on Travelzoo voucher for 4 nights. This hotel has been remodeled and is still in process of completing some work in common areas. Starbucks opened when I was there, and Monkeypod will open in the future. Staff was fabulous! No complaints there. I was able to check in early and got a partial ocean view on floor 11. Room was spotless. My only complaint, and it's a big one for me, is the soundproofing. I should say lack of it! Doors are HEAVY and each open and shut on the floor nearby is a shock to the sleeper. Also, the wind whistled and the band and traffic comes right in through slider to balcony. The band stops at 9, so that was no problem, and very nice. But....I hated the door slams and other interior noises. If you are a light sleeper, I don't think you will enjoy yourself. I wore ear plugs. Location is superb! It really can't be beat. Pool is OK. The jacuzzi was kind of icky. One being closed the entire time, the other kind of grey and the one attached to the pool generally full of kids. No jacuzzi for me. Towels and loungers were readily available. No problems there. We did have a problem at restaurant/ bar with what we think was bad turkey or mayo on a club. My grandson and I got sick within a couple hours. Unfortunately for the maintenance staff there was some cleaning up to do in the bathroom. The staff responded immediately and were so nice about it. I cannot thank them enough. However, when I reported this to the restaurant manager in the morning I was not totally happy with his response. All in all, I would stay there again for what I paid for it.

This resort is excellent with three swimming pool and a large Lagoom and only walking distance to the beach. You can find everything you need in this resort and there are ABC stores inside and we can buy all our souvenirs very easy. I will strongly recommend this hotel to my friend. Just one things that there is no bottle water provided and no boiling machine and you need to buy your bottle water on your own.

Wow! Genuinely friendly staff that is welcoming and helpful. I had no expectations on an overnight with friends from Maui. Mind blown at the level of Aloha - clean rooms, great location. Thank you Aqua Palms staff for helping create part of an incredible experience filled with so much Aloha I’m already planning a return trip with friends to stay there.

The hotel is an affordable price with simple and clean environment. The room looks new and tidy which make me pick for my four nights stay. More importantly they offer cheap parking charge compared to other hotels in Waikiki. There are two bottle of water to be provided each day and you can redeem for free in front desk which is appreciated, you can also take the refilling water in lobby. Microwave is provided in each room too.

I ended up making a few reservations here thanks to the kindness and hospitality of the staff. A special thank you to Yulia for making my stay extraordinary, she had great recommendations, made great snax and drinks at the ”paniolo” a bar and Cafe located on site and was overall just so friendly and inviting to the solo traveler. Another special thanks to Dana, who kept me on constant supply of delicious speciality coffee! My room was clean, the hotel is charming and family owned, and it's location is exceptional. 5 stars and i will be visiting again :)

Our stay at The Kahala started off a little disappointing as they didn’t have 2 bed rooms available. Luckily, they were able to quickly get a very comfortable rollaway bed to our room. The rest of our stay was nothing short of perfect. The resort is beautiful and all the amenities in the enormous room were fantastic. The scenic view room overlooks the golf course and was perfect for watching the sunrise. You can see a little bit of the ocean from the lanai if you have one. The beach is very open and not too crowded, even with the hotel saying they were fully booked. We loved that the water was waist-deep for several yards and no waves due to the reef. The restaurants were delicious and for those who are gluten-free, the chef took special care to show which items were safe during buffet times. The resort is beautiful and think the price was reasonable for what you get. It’s starting to show a little wear, but overall it’s very well taken care of and priced accordingly. I’d definitely stay here again next time I’m on Oahu!
