Top Magic Island Hotel Reviews

Ala Moana Hotel by Mantra

10/10 Excellent

"This Hotel was actually the only hotel I have ever stayed in that I never had to ask for anything, like new sheets or new towels or for the garbage to be emptied. They came every day to clean the room like clockwork. The staff was amazing and friendly. The hotel was always packed and it's probably because they do a great job in the impression they leave on all their customers. I will stay here again for sure and the amenities are great. The restaurants offer a discount for staying there and the stores as well. This hotel guarantees a great night sleep. I stood on the 32nd floor and it was very pretty the view of the mountains every morning. 10 out of 10."

Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, staff and amenities. Property was well maintained with beautiful grounds and there were so many resort activity options. Lots of restaurants and shopping options. Lots of nearby tour attractions. Loved the hop on hop off trolley. Especially love the Royal Hawaiian shopping center connection that provided so much in every direction. Beautiful beach area and scenic ocean views. Dreamy Vacation. Wonderful place to celebrate anniversaries, birthdays, honeymoons, etc."

Waikiki Marina Resort at the Ilikai

10/10 Excellent

"I wasn't sure what to expect because based on the price being so much better I was a little nervous. However, this hotel did not disappoint. It is a gigantic property the rooms are huge and everything was very clean. We were in a city facing room that had a gigantic balcony and had a beautiful view, There were washer/dryers a few doors down from the room which we used without any issue. There is so much right around the hotel. There are shops right on the ground floor. The bus stops right out front and the hop on hop off Waikiki trolley stops in front of the hotel for the pink line and the other lines are just a five minute walk. In the courtyard they have performances on different nights. You can see the Hilton fireworks right from the courtyard also. The restaurant downstairs was amazing. It is expensive of course... like everywhere else, but was great. Staff was amazing. Will stay again!"

"The location is excellent, and shopping areas are within walking distance. Although the parking space is a bit tight, it is great to have free parking in such a prime location. The owner is extremely kind and very responsive; whenever I sent a message, I received a quick reply. There were no issues with the plumbing or bathroom facilities either. I had a very comfortable trip to Hawaii."
