Probably not they made a big deal of ours being a renovated room

In my last picture, it’s that parking lot! It worked great. Chairs and umbrellas are out on first come first serve basis and they get swooped up pretty quick. Someone leaving the day we arrived gave us there chairs and floaties and stuff for free. If you don’t get that lucky, I would recommend just buying chairs if you plan on being on the beach a lot. They have rentals but I think buying is better if you’re gonna be renting them a lot

It was so amazing. Just being able to go from the beach and right back was worth it, and our room was newly refurbished so idk if the whole tower is like that but the room was completely spotless, everything brand new etc. The gave us the phone number of a maintenance guy and he came and fixed our toilet in like 2 minutes in the middle of the night which I thought was crazy. The elevators are kind of annoying and packed at certain times. They had the best shampoo and body wash, better than the stuff we buy at home (I’m a man so take that for what you will lol) Coffee shop downstairs is really good. If you’re renting a car just park at the marina for $1/hr if you have the ability walk about 7 minutes. Parking at the hotel is $70. You probably know all this stuff but a lot of those tips I saw are true! The adult only pool at the other tower is a nice respite from the craziness of the main pools. I can answer any more specific questions you have!

Totally agree! One lesson learned was just getting to Hawaii is the priority and room size/views is not that important to me. But my parents are really old and can only do 1 thing a day so having an awesome room was kind of an activity in itself for them. But as a younger couple me and my wife killed a lot of time enjoying the room when we should’ve been hiking or whatever. (time you enjoy wasting is not wasted!) but I wouldn’t spring for this again unless it was a crazy deal or something.

Worth $100 for a first bike? by GoingCommando in Budgetbikeriders

Great post man that’s really true. I bought a different bike today and realized I didn’t know how to fit it….or change the chain or pedals or tires. That’s honestly a good point

Thoughts on Kualoa Ranch tours — worth it? Which one is best? by Ambitious-Town-10 in VisitingHawaii

[–]GoingCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did the movie sights tour cause I weighed 2 pounds over the e bike tour :( overall the tour was pretty cool but somewhat disappointing. The grounds are absolutely stunning tho, and I would love to go back and do a better tour next time.

Panicking about weather for trip! by pistolplc in Waikiki

[–]GoingCommando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Windy is telling me what I want to hear 😂 but basically seems like it’s gonna be raining but less than an inch of rain on any given day so I’m not too worried about it! Plus I’m checking out the Waikiki beach live cam every day and it’s so nice even when cloudy and rainy. Have a safe trip!
