Hotel/Condo Recommendations

Question

Hi All,

We are a family of 4 traveling to Waikiki next month. We booked the Sheraton Princess Waikiki months ago but now having second thoughts due to current reviews (we have 2 separate rooms booked).

About Us:

Family of 4 (Parents in 60s, younger brother aged 28, and myself (30)].

Rental car also reserved.

We usually stay at hotels/resorts with 2-bedroom accommodations - are there any hotels/condos recommended with 2-bedroom offerings? Alternatively, any specific hotel suggestions for 2 separate guest-rooms?

Budget of $700 - $800/night for either a 2-bedroom accommodation or 2 separate rooms.

Sincerely appreciate all insight.

Answer

For a family of four visiting Waikiki with a preference for either a two-bedroom unit or two separate rooms, there are several accommodations that may better suit your needs than the Sheraton Princess Waikiki. Since you have a rental car, you also have flexibility for properties slightly outside the main strip, although staying near the beach is convenient for easy access to Waikiki’s attractions.

Here are some options to consider:

Two-bedroom condos or suites:
- Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort – Offers two-bedroom suites and larger family-friendly options, beachfront location, and resort amenities. Great for families wanting shared space while still having privacy.
- Marriott’s Waikiki Beach Resort – Some units have two bedrooms with kitchen facilities, pools, and beach access, ideal for a family needing separate sleeping areas.
- Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk – Two-room suites with separate bedrooms and living areas; includes breakfast and convenient location near shops and dining.
- Hilton Hawaiian Village – Lagoon or Tower Villas offer multiple bedrooms with full kitchenettes, pools, and a variety of recreational activities for families.
Two separate rooms at hotels:
- Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort – Modern rooms, flexible rates, and often offers connecting rooms if desired.
- Royal Hawaiian Hotel – Iconic resort with multiple room options, including adjacent rooms for families.
- Shoreline Hotels or boutique options – Some boutique hotels offer multiple rooms within walking distance of the beach, which may suit a budget in your range.

Additional considerations for your stay:

Confirm with the hotel or resort directly for availability of two-bedroom units or connecting rooms, as online booking platforms sometimes underrepresent options.
Check if amenities like kitchens, washers/dryers, or living areas are important for your family; this is often easier to manage in condo-style accommodations.
Consider the location relative to Waikiki Beach, restaurants, and shopping. Being slightly off the main strip can reduce noise and sometimes offer better rates.
Book early, as February is a popular travel month in Hawaii, and your budget of $700–$800 per night can secure comfortable accommodations with ocean views or beachfront access.

Overall, prioritizing either a two-bedroom condo or two adjacent rooms in a well-reviewed resort near the beach will provide comfort, privacy, and convenience for your family. Properties like Outrigger, Marriott, Embassy Suites, or Hilton Hawaiian Village are strong candidates, offering the right balance of amenities and location within your budget.
