The property was fine minus the bathroom floor. It appeared stained from years of use. Front desk staff were not very helpful. Multiple days they told us they ran out of beach towels and chairs without any resolution. What did we pay the resort fee then?

Really nice hotel, staff are lovely with good amenities. As someone who burns easily, I really appreciated the aloe vera dispensers by the pool. Only reason for not giving 5 stars is that the room cleaners repeatedly forgot to replace our towels after taking them away and also took away one of our bathrobes which is explicitly told will cost you $150 if not in the room when leaving. I’m sure just a friendly mistake, other than that, I would definitely recommend.

Very convenient and walking distance to everything you need. Just a side note, there is no coffee maker in their rooms (at least the room that we stayed in), and they don’t have a complementary coffee at their lobby as it says on their hotel details on Expedia. Hope they’ve corrected that wrong info.

Our recent stay at Wayfinder in Honolulu was a mixed experience. The staff were notably polite and accommodating, swiftly addressing any issues that arose. When I called the lobby about drainage problems in the bathroom, they promptly sent someone to fix it, and the matter was resolved within minutes. However, there were significant drawbacks to my stay as well. The internet connection in the room was very poor, with almost no signal and severe lag, making it difficult to accomplish even basic tasks online. Additionally, when I requested room cleaning on the third day of my stay, I was disappointed by the quality of the service.It felt rushed and incomplete. Also the room didn't look as good as the pictures online. Overall, it was okay, but there's room for improvement.

The property is cute and clean and fun. I appreciated the free welcome drink at the pool bar. The rooms are loud though! Road noise and a loud buzzing about every hour that woke us up all night. Also the pillows are too soft in my opinion. The parking is also way too expensive $45.

Food was fantastic. Try the rising sun poke. Probably the best Poke we had throughout our stay. Hotel was clean and convenient. Parking sucks. On street parking is available but fills up super fast. Onsite parking is limited and is 45$ a night which seemed steep. Overall, would highly recomend the hotel.

We had a very nice stay at this property. But we asked to change room as we originally were in a corner king balcony room which was not clean and very noisy with road noise outside. We were given a pool side room and had a wonderful stay in a very comfortable room, it was very clean and comfortable and quiet. The staff were very kind and accommodating and we loved the pool and had a very nice lunch at the restaurant and drinks by the pool. We really enjoyed our stay but it depends on what room you get. Easy walkable distance to the beach, ABC store nearby.

Nice botique feel, good pool area, service very good. Main issue I had was the electrical/lights. The light switches are on cords and hide/fall behind the tables making it hard to find and turn on/off. This was especially a problem when I first walked into the dark room--you have to put your key into a slot to get them turned on but they also have to be turned on.

This was my first time in Hawaii and the Wayfinder waikiki was the perfect hotel to stay in. Its right next to the Ala Moana canal, which has a great view. The hotel is down the street from a convenient store, and 2 blocks from tje beach. I would stay here again. The only complaint i had was the smell of the room. There was definitely moisture in the air, but i didnt spot any mold or mildew. I just sprayed lysol and opened the balcony door and the smell was gone.
