I got premium base with toasted coconut & brownie batter flavoring and coconut & choc. chip mix ins -- yummy but I couldnt finish my small because it was super sweet/dense. The experience is fun, but I will stick to fro yo for my cravings and cold stone's when I want something special. Lots of options though.

I didnt appreciate how this was handled and hopefully it wont happen to you, but beware and ask for the right size bed you need/want! Also I noticed that the staff is great but when the guests start arriving in swarms they were understaffed and that was when they got a little touchy. I couldnt judge them though, just trying to keep up! See my other review for why we could actually return :)

My husband and I stayed here on our trip using a Living Social deal. The lobby area is deceiving because it is the most modern part of the hotel (besides the pool). We were excited until we got to the 12th floor where our room was. We stepped off of the elevator and the smell was stuffy and unwelcoming -- we couldnt complain though because we knew we got a great price. The room was extremely out of date, as if we were staying at our old Aunt Betty's home for the week. BUT it was clean and the bed was comfy (though we did purchase some pillows at Walmart because the pillows were terrible). The room had a large lanai that we were able to view the city and the ocean from. This was our favorite part and absolutely made our mornings and sunsets amazing.
The staff was friendly and always helpful. Part of the deal was a full breakfast each morning -- which saved us a good amount of money! They had a good variety of hot and cold foods to choose from, including some delicious pineapple juice. Besides the out-dated room and awkward smells in the hall, we actually would stay here again! We will never find such a great price for a hotel this close to Waikiki and a 10-15 minute walk to the beach!

Staff was sweet and I would have probably returned to try a couple of their other intriguing drinks if I hadnt only discovered them the 2nd to last day of our trip.

If you have the kiddos with you, this luau would be great. I really enjoyed the activities that they have. But if you are looking for a fantastic show that will knock your socks off, hit up the PCC or maybe one of the other luaus on the island.

To top it all off we got the tiramisu which was pretty good too. Very light, maybe could use a bit more coffee flavor but it was creamy, delicious. The place was perfect for a little date night and we do plan on coming back. We went on a Tuesday and the placed was filled up by 6pm; sounded like they have some regulars. I could understand why.
