Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa

OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean and well maintained. The staff was friendly and helpful. The pool was fun. It was convenient to have a hotel on the beach. Beach will close when sea lions swim up to the beach area. Hotel is close to restaurants and shops. I would stay here again with my family."

Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach

8/10 Good

"Our experience was great but we did not know they were doing a paint job so we weren’t allowed to go into our balcony. We found out the day we checked in. They can also upgrade on their pillows as it wasn’t that comfortable. Also hotel parking was full so we had to park across the street everyday."
