Ask for a room on the ocean side, even if garden view, to avoid having to frequently cross the street; rooms in the ocean wings seem larger, too.
"Located on one of the very best beaches in Hawaii, this Sheraton offers a quality resort experience without being overly opulent or glitzy."
"Commanding a premier location on famous Po‘ipū Beach... this resort offers a full array of services and amenities in a beautiful tropical setting."
"The Sheraton's ocean-wing accommodations are so close to the water you can practically feel the spray of the surf as it hits the rocks below." Full review
"This appealingly low-key resort lives up to its ideal beachfront location, where the western horizon sees a riot of color at sunset and rainbows arc over a rocky point after the occasional shower" Full review
