Top Makiki Forest Recreation Area Hotel Reviews

Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The hotel has a great location, and I love that the pool is right by the beachfront. The room was clean and comfortable, and the housekeeping staff were nice and cleaned our room every day, which we really appreciated. The only downside was that there was sometimes a wait for the elevators. I also appreciated the complimentary water bottles and free water refill stations throughout the hotel. I just wish the bottles had a wider opening so it would be easier to add ice. However, considering that we paid around $60 per day for the resort fee, I expected the amenities to feel more upscale. Overall, we had a great stay!"
