Great Location, but …
If not for the excellent location (walking distance to Kailua town, and the sunset views are spectacular), I would seriously consider staying somewhere else on my next trip (approx. every 3-5 years). The exorbitant resort fee is a ripoff, and to charge for self-parking ABOVE AND BEYOND the fee is almost criminal. What do you get for this fee? 2 bottles of water — for the stay, not each day! — doesn’t come close to justifying the fee. I was given a coupon for 2 Mai Tais; when I explained that we do not like Mai Tais, I was told that this is not exchangeable for anything else (I was even willing to redeem them for a single drink of another type, but we were basically told ‘too bad’ — I guess guests who do not drink alcohol are similarly just out of luck. There are no snack or beverage machines. The fitness machines are hard to figure out, and unlike any I have seen in other resorts. If the fee is going towards resort maintenance, the results are not obvious; the place is somewhat run-down since our last trip (the ponds are filthy). And I find it insulting that visitors for the luau might find parking more easy than paying guests. And for the third time, I will argue for a hot tub (and you can certainly find a place for it; several years ago, I was told ‘yes, many people make that comment.’ So, why don’t you heed such comments?) The food at Don’s is good, but there should be lighter options for those who just want a snack (see comment about lack of machines above).

disappointed
Our room was large but smelled a bit of mold, also the sliding door to the deck was off the track and was hard to open and close, our back deck had only two chairs even thought we had three registered guests while the decks on either side of us had three! i requested to be in a renovated room but i am pretty sure i didn’t get that- the floor boa da outside the room were sheets of wood !!

Too noisy
Beautiful hotel with a large restaurant and view of the ocean. It took a little long to check in. Room was large, comfortable and clean. My main issue with this hotel was that there were groups of children running around outside the rooms until late hours. We were in the Bay Tower and the bar across the street kept us up until 1am with loud music every night. I was very unhappy with all the noise.

Location, location, location
Excellent location, location, location. On the point, beautiful sunsets from the room or bar/pool. Near shops and restaurants. The staff were friendly and responsive, availability of services good. This resort is older, noticeable in the rooms; loose plumbing, noisy ventilation, a heavy, sticky sliding door to the lanai. However, the bed was very comfortable, linens and towels fresh and clean. Restaurant service was very slow, the food just okay, a lively bar.
