I had a really enjoyable experience at this hotel, especially with the direct access to Waikiki Beach and the incredible views of Diamond Head. The staff were mostly cheerful and hospitable, adding to the overall positive vibe. However, I found the dining options on the pricey side for what was offered, and the noise from the nearby hustle and bustle was a bit distracting at times. All in all, it was a lovely stay, but be ready for those extra costs.

The Moana Surfrider boasts stunning grounds and a fantastic beachside location. While I appreciated the beautiful outdoor areas and the range of cultural activities, the rooms left a bit to be desired, feeling a little outdated and not as clean as expected. The staff was incredibly friendly, and the dining options, although high-quality, could be pricey for some. Overall, it's great for those looking for a picturesque stay but be prepared for a few shortcomings in the rooms.

The Moana Surfrider has a rich history that makes it an interesting place to stay, right in the heart of Waikiki. The location is superb for accessing the beach and local amenities, and the room quality is comfortable, although on the smaller side. Service has its ups and downs, especially around the pool area, where we encountered issues with chairs being reserved and not available. Dining options are decent, but the cost feels a bit high given the amenities.
