We loved the pool and that it was opened until midnight. The drinks at the bar were good. Only thing we could not bring snacks to the pool, like chips, we had kids.

All went well until this morning when I was putting my personal items in my car and the door to my room slammed shut. That would have not been a big deal normally, but there was no one on site to help me. There was a note on the lobby door that they would be unavailable from 7 a.m. until 9 a.m. It was not 9:30 and I had a 10 appointment. So, I climbed in the window because I had to get to my appointment. I'm 78 years old.

This could be a great little hotel but it needs so much work. Everything is old in the rooms and they look shabby. Do not expect to love the rooms. Gross carpets do bring your slippers and Clorox wipes for everything. We have seen roaches each time we have been there. However The theme, pool area and restaurants are excellent.

Pet-Friendly

The location is great and the pool is large and open most of the day until midnight. The hotel in pet friendly, but unfortunately I did observe multiple dogs at the pool and a guest even had their dog in the water. I do not think pets should be allowed in the pool but I was not sure what the policy was here. Otherwise, we had a great stay and the Reef bar was excellent.

Booked this "resort" with the hopes to have an amazing getaway with my girls....we were all super excited to get away for the long weekend. Unfortunately upon arriving we were disappointed to see it wasnt what we expected....resort is old and outdated....but we were already there and decided to give it a chance. We got to our suite and waited about an hour for our room to cool off Unfortunately we realized the ac wasnt working....called the front desk and maintenance was quick to respond to our inconvenience....maintenance personnel indicated that it couldn't be fixed he recommended we were to be moved to another room....once moved to another room we were getting ready for our dinner reservations and another problem arised in the new suite....bath tub was clogged the bath tub quickly would fill up with water and would take a while to drain.....called front desk and was informed maintenance was gone for the day....they then proceeded to tell me they'd give us access to another room down the aisle so we could use the shower until the next morning maintenance would arrive. Service was good....employees were really helpful but the establishment needs a renovation.....all these small inconveniences made a difference to our trip.

I loved staying here, and will definitely be back. Being a Hawaiian at heart, this brought me back to my favorite hotel that I used to stay at in Honolulu 40 years ago. Unfortunately, that hotel is long gone, but I have now found a perfect replacement, that is much easier to get to rather than a five hour flight. Mahalo a nui loa for a great couple of days. Aloha, e a hui hou!

One night stay

When my Wife and l arrived to the property check in was fine. We made ourselves to the pool which was nice. We returned to our room to shower. My Wife told me she had a slight strughle with the shower. She did manage to shower , she lndicated that it was hard to work before l got in. I did manage to get it to work and showered after all. The shower control was sticking in the closed postion which was a little bit of a struggle. I called to request an additional half to 1 hr stay due to over sleeping. I called at 11:23 a.m. , the desk clerk mentioned it would be an additional 40.00 . I declined to accept the offer and proceeded to leave on time. No sooner than l hung up the phone with the desk the cleaning lady showed up to ask if we were leaving at 12 pm. I said we were leaving by 12 pm. I found this odd considering this has never been the case in our 21 yrs of staying there. Call it strange of all times. I went to the front desk and returned the keys. I mentioned the shower control in the room to make someone aware of the problem. The clerk told me that l neededto send an email with pics. My reply was lm just lnforming you . Her reply was it was not her responseability ,after l mentioned that it was to just make somebody aware. She continued to carry on about it. I refused to continue the conversation and walked out. My Wife went in to explain what she experienced in the shower as well. The desk clerk decided to give my wife a hard time about it as well . My Wife

Not a 3 star motel

The room was extremely hot when we arrived and took 1 day to cool down to a comfortable temperature. Bed comforter was old and torn. Carpet was old, worn and had stains. Shower tub did not drain properly and filled while showering. Ice machine was far away in the workout room. Pool was clean and open late which was nice.
