The hype
Travelers love the bidet toilets, the mesmerizing harbor views, and the escape from Waikiki's madness.
Prince Waikiki
$250-350/ notte
Prenota se You want ocean views from every room and hate the chaotic foot traffic of central Waikiki.
Perché piace così tanto
- Every single room faces the ocean (no 'city view' duds)
- Infinity pool overlooking the harbor is a legitimate Instagram icon
- Walking distance to Ala Moana Center and calmer beach parks
In sintesi: A sleek, adult-leaning tower that trades direct beach access for killer harbor views and a sanctuary vibe.
Recensito da @vantagevisual: I spent my entire afternoon at this pool deck and it was a total vibe. The harbor views are stunningly different from the usual beach scenes, and the poolside service was top-notch. Definitely grab a cabana if you want that VIP feeling.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
Reality check
You will hear sirens and street noise if you are on a lower floor, and the walk to the main Waikiki strip gets old fast.
- You prioritize a modern, spotless bathroom with a heated bidet
- You have a rental car (easy garage access compared to central Waikiki)
- You prefer a sunset cocktail by the pool over a crowded beach bar

Prima di prenotare
Buono a sapersi
- Resort fee (~$53/night) includes admission to the Honolulu Museum of Art—use it!
- The 'harbor view' is dynamic and interesting, often better than a flat blue ocean view.
- Self-parking is in a garage that allows in/out privileges; much easier than valet for frequent drivers.
Cosa portare
- Reusable water bottle (filling stations are everywhere)
- Walking shoes (you are a 15-20 min walk from the heart of Waikiki)
Genio delle camere
Migliori scelte
- Ala Moana Tower, High Floor (20+): Best views, quieter, and closer to the lobby/amenities.
- Oceanfront Premier: Guarantees a higher floor and better angle for sunsets.
Camere da evitare
- Diamond Head Tower, Low Floors: Can feel smaller, closer to street noise, and further from the main elevator bank.
- Floors 5-7 near the pool deck: Prone to daytime noise and music.

“I would appreciate a room in the Ala Moana Tower on a high floor (20+) to minimize street noise. If possible, a view facing the sunset/harbor would be wonderful.”
FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is there a beach at the hotel?

Do the windows open?
Yes, the floor-to-ceiling windows slide open about 4-6 inches to let in the breeze, but there is no balcony.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the infinity pool is heated and adults-only; the main saltwater pool is also comfortable.
Can I see the fireworks?
