This was the 3rd and last hotel we stayed at during a 2 week holiday. We only stayed 2 nights at the end of our trip to experience Hawaii's oldest hotel. The building itself is beautiful - very grand and elegant, with beautiful check in areas, entry and cute rocking chairs on the front verandah. The room we stayed in... more

We stayed here on our honeymoon and had a wonderful time. The hotel is right on the beach in the middle of Waikiki, close to lots of shopping and restaurants, and has a beautiful old world charm. We stayed in the Tower Wing which is a newer part of the hotel - the room was large and had a beautiful... more

Let me make this short and sweet. Spent our honeymoon here form Oct 27-Nov 02. First night we checked into a tiny room but very modern. At 5am I was awaken by a cochroach crawling across my lower back. I have never jumped out of bed so fast. My wife took the roach down to the front desk in a... more

I had hesitated between the three starwood properties on waikiki beach and settled on the moana, which after all was the oldest: no regrets after a wonderful trip. First, ambience-wise the moana is uniquely effervescent yet historical, comfortable yet charming and luxurious without being at all snobbish. The royal hawaiian next door is indeed beautiful (particularly the ceilings near the... more

The smell was so strong that it seemed like mold sprouts were growing in my lungs... more

The Westin Moana Surfrider is the oldest hotel in the area but has gone through some significant upgrades recently. The... more

We stayed at the Moana last January for a week - me and my huband were so amazed about this Hotel. Our room, which faced the ocean, was on one of the top floors, amazing view over the waikiki beach. Make sure that you book Diamond Deluce Ocean, you even get your own balcony! The staff was always friendly and... more

We were upgraded to an ocean view room which was a wonderful surprise. The location of the hetel is superb. The staff was polite and helpful. We enjoyed the best Mai Tai drinks under the Banyon tree. more

We recently travelled to Hawaii for the first time and decided on the Moana Surfrider for our 7 day stay. The location of the hotel was perfect. We reserved a room in the Banyan wing with an ocean view. We loved the older section and the view along the beach to Diamond Head was beautiful. The room had recently been... more
