Moana Surfrider, a Westin Resort & Spa

My favorite Waikiki resort

This is now my fifth time staying at the Moana and the staff never lets me down. A great retreat from the hustle and bustle out the front doors. Try the Beachhouse restaurant!

great spot!

great spot, centrally located, clean and classy

Total class in Waikiki..

There is nothing not to like here if you appreciate quality and ambiance of a bygone era.. what a relief to come home to this hotel after the "Vegas like" atmosphere of Waikiki.. a true slice of heaven.. the review here from BBUC is right on the mark..

Exquisite Hotel in Waikiki

Built in 1901, the Moana was a star from the beginning, throughout its history and transformations the Moana has always been the Grand Hotel. When approaching it on Kalakau Ave you are greeted with beautiful columns, there is a front porch with rocking chairs, a magnificent lobby. On the 2nd floor is a historical area with many pictures and brochures from the by gone eras. The hotel also offers a Historical tour which lasts about an hour on MWF at 11 am. Don't miss the huge banyan tree that is about 75 ft high and spans out about 150 ft, one of the oldest Banyan trees in Hawaii.
