We stayed here because my husband was attending a conference and I read the great reviews on Trip Advisor. Given that we were switching over from another hotel, I called the Moana Surfrider the morning of the switch and asked if early check-in was possible. As suggested by other Trip Advisor reviewers, I requested a room in the Banyan/Tower wing.... more

We just got back from a great three night stay at the Surfrider. First of all, the hotel has a spectacular location. The international marketplace is right across the street and everything is within walking distance on the Waikiki strip. Service was great, we had absolutely no problems. When you check-in, you are greeted with a cool washcloth, a small... more

SO! This was my second stay at the Surfrider - the last stay was in February of '06 - so my first stay under the Westin brand. Check-in was very fast and we were greeted with cool towels and tea or juice. Very friendly front desk staff as well. They haven't really made any changes (from what I could see)... more

On our recent trip to Hawaii, we stopped in Honolulu to see Pearl Harbor and shop before continuing on to the Big Island and stayed 2 nights at the Moana Surfrider. We stayed in the recently renovated Banyan Wing in a partial Oceanview room. While the Banyan Wing is very beautiful and they have done a good job with the... more

I read all the reviews on trip advisors and stayed in the tower with ocean view. Wonderful views and it feel likes you are on the beach. had dinner at grill near the superb banyan tree, food was average but what a location. Did a morning walk down the beach and back. Only stayed for one night but nice operation,... more

my husband and i stayed for 3 nights and loved it. by the foot traffic in and out of the lobby, it is obvious that this is the place to be -- and be married! there were sooo many couples posing for photos on the stairway. the room was elegant and compact. we enjoyed the location and loveliness of this... more

We had to great pleasure of staying at the Westin Moana Surfrider April 14-18, 2008. We had a previous one night stay at this property 5 years ago and fell in love with the beauty of the hotel. WOW, since the change over to Westin the resort is even better. Upon arrival we were greeted at the front steps by... more

We tried to get into the Tower Wing, based on reviews here. Could only get Diamond and thought, "it's only 2 nights, how bad can it be"! HA! I agree with everything 'skyagan' here says in his/her review - take a look at my pics of the bathrooms, which is the only way I can get my revenge for the... more
