The Alohilani is at the top of my list for 3 to 5 days when we come for the month of December. It's in my top 3 or 4 along with the Royal Hawaiian, Trump and Moana Surf Rider. We would like to spend more days at one of these amazing hotels but they are a little out of our league. When the Alohilani was called the Pacific Beach I have video of that aquarium with mermaids feeding the fish which they did once a week. If I can get a special rate I would love their Diamond Head view room. Oh well, I can dream, can't I? Aloha.

It was clean, smelled and looked clean. It was ok, over rated and over priced. Nice hotel but they charge you like $45 a night for resort fee, $10 a night for microwave rental and the also charge you for parking. Pool area and marine tank is the highlight of the hotel. Great location overall. Stayed for 10 days and besides the fees stay was great.
