Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort
Staff was wonderful and lots of local activities. We booked an ocean view and ended up with a partial ocean view. The worst were the flies that were everywhere on the property and around the pools! We gave up laying by the pools because it was just too annoying! We ended up at the beach each day
