Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We had a fantastic stay at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort! The location right on Waikiki Beach is unbeatable, and the grounds are sprawling and beautiful. With five different pools, incredible dining options right on-site, easy access to the saltwater lagoon, and the famous Friday night fireworks, there is always plenty to do. Just a heads-up for future guests regarding amenities: Expedia lists a steam room and sauna, but the resort does not actually have a steam room or sauna available. Overall, it is a wonderful place for a trip to Oahu, and we would definitely return!"

10/10 Excellent
"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property was even better than the pictures. The space was clean and comfortable for our family of 9 to gather for 5 days. The beach was miles of beautiful ocean and sand just a few steps from the back door. The property had everything we needed from beach gear to kitchen and laundry supplies. Upon arrival we were greeted by the property manager with a tour and a delicious welcome basket. Exceptional home and property manager. It was hard to leave."

"The facility was great! All of my family members and I were very comfortable and the setting was wonderful. I would highly recommend this facility. I would recommend that VRBO make it more clear as to what the property damage insurance requirements are. I bought Insurance, but it wasn’t enough. I had to go back and cancel and increase the amount."
