Frommer's "Thanks to a $16-million remodel, this appealingly low-key resort is finally living up to its ideal beachfront location." Full review

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.
Gayot "Located on one of the very best beaches in Hawaii, this Sheraton offers a quality resort experience without being overly opulent or glitzy."
DK Eyewitness "Commanding a premier location on famous Po‘ipū Beach... this resort offers a full array of services and amenities in a beautiful tropical setting."
Fodor's "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
Frommer's "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
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"The Sheraton enjoys an undeniable advantage, occupying a prime stretch of sandy, swimmable, sunset-perfect beach, with a pool and luau gardens right by the ocean" Full review

"This bland, 578-room high-rise 10 to 15 minutes from the main Waikiki action -- and, alas, its beach -- features strong service and two good restaurants." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Every room at this marinafront hotel overlooks the picturesque Ala Wai Yacht Harbor. There are two award-winning restaurants: Prince Court offers Hawai’i cuisine, Hakone traditional Japanese."
Star Service "This hotel remains one of the top business addresses here, a plush Japanese workhorse that provides fine accommodations and service but only middling facilities." Full review
Gayot "Located on the very western edge of Waikiki and set back from the beach, this twin tower hotel was completely renovated in 2011."
Zagat4.2
"The "aloha spirit" of this 28-floor, 578-unit resort... makes this "local favorite" the "essence of a Hawaiian getaway"."
Condé Nast Traveler "For the on-the-go traveler who doesn't want to to give up on amazing views and decent dining, this is a fantastic spot." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Surrounded by panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, the hotel offers contemporary accommodations, poolside cabanas, exclusive Club Lounge, and access to the Hawaii Prince Golf Club"
