We are staying 9 nights at Aulani then 3 nights on Waikiki. Currently I have a partial ocean view room booked at the Hilton Hawaiian Village for our family of 4. After reading many, many reviews on here and other travel sites, I am seriously considering cancelling that reservation. I am worried about the size of the resort, the fact that we would only have access to 3 pools (not 5 if you read the fine print-1 is 18 and over so my family is out and 1 is for a certain tower only), and the current state of the rooms (a little dated, dingy, etc). I do like the beach location there but I don't want to deal with crazy crowds at the pool and such a big resort. Plus we will have gotten our fill of pools/slides/water slides/lazy river at Aulani.
After spending countless hours on different websites and Google maps, I am thinking of either the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort (not the Reef) or Ilikai. We like the look of the rooms at Ilikai but I am not wild about the walk to the beach (yes I know it is short). I got a really good deal at the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort with their new V 47 club so I am leaning towards that one.
Does anyone have any recent experience with either of these resorts? I haven't been to Oahu in 25 years so my memory is a bit fuzzy. Thanks in advance!
