Personally surf rider was better than Royal. Waikiki has a good infinity pool, though - and for less points you're just as close to the beach

Is it worth staying in one of the SPG hotels near Waikiki if I'm attending a wedding over in Kapolei? Looks like a 40-minute drive so I might end up going off-brand 😕

Waikiki is a fake south beach centered on a fake rodeo drive overcrowded with Japanese tourists doing high end shopping. Please stay somewhere else for your own sake. I would say the surf rider because it's great but please stay outside of Waikiki.

I stayed at the new laylow a couple month ago and it was alright

To elaborate - I don't recommend Waikiki at all. But you asked about those three. North shore Airbnb is where it's at

Not Honolulu for starters. Maui is so much better!

How many points? Caribbean Marriott Cat 3 property, 5 nights. They have an issue with the boiler so no hot water and shower stops in between. Ice cold showers for 4 days in a row 🥶. Hotel phones don’t work because network is down and only local channels work on tv. Last night they had a huge leak in the lobby. They kept knocking stuff all night to fix it and then left a large floor fan running. I understand it’s tough reopening so don’t want to push, plus they upgraded our room at check in.
