Jetsetter "Perched on the white sand shores of Wailea, this all-suite resort offers a beachside fantasy on Hawaii’s Valley Isle." Full review
Fodor's "Gleaming white spires and tiled archways are the hallmark of this stunning resort that's particularly good for families." Full review
Lonely Planet "The white exterior of this Moorish wonder looks a tad dingy and the alohas were not memorably warm on our visit, making us wonder if this seaside sultan has lost some abracadabra."
Zagat4.7
""When you want to be pampered in Wailea", this "classy", "exceptional" all-suites resort is "perfect for families or couples", providing "all you could want.""
Gayot "Built under the guidance of architect Jose Luis Ezquerra in 1991, this 22-acre oceanfront resort has come a long way in its short history."

Frommer's "Not only do you get the value and quality of the Outrigger chain... you also get a terrific Waikiki Beach location and prices much lower than this property's neighbors." Full review
Fodor's "Renovated in 2012, this star of Outrigger Hotels & Resorts sits on one of the finest strands of Waikiki Beach." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"It's location over luxury at the 524-room Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach -- it's in the heart of the action on one of Waikiki's best beaches." Full review
Lonely Planet "If you want a heavy-duty party atmosphere, the Outrigger Waikiki is your ticket. It sits on perhaps the most popular stretch of Waikiki beach, where you can see and be seen, day and night." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This oceanfront hotel is the jewel in the crown of the Outrigger chain. The 500 guest rooms feature Polynesian decor."
Star Service "Plunked down between The Royal Hawaiian and Moana Surfrider, this remains one of Waikiki's most efficiently run beachfront hotels." Full review
BlackBook "The beachfront setting is more than breathtaking, the location is better than most and rocks with lots of restaurants, shops, bars and entertainment."
Afar Magazine "It’s right on the beach, just north of the main resort cluster, and though a short walk to the middle of the action, far enough to feel out of the fray." Full review
Gayot "The best feature at the Outrigger's flagship property is its central location on the beach in the middle of Waikiki."
Lonely Planet "The 524 rooms are generic and look like they could be anywhere in the world, but at least they're close to the beach (and have balconies and fridges). " Full review
