Canoe and surf boards inside hotel decor. Duke Kahanamoku decor/history in the mail lobby. Shops and 2 restaurants inside with Waikkiki view from each. We got Waikkiki beach ocean view from the hotel balcony, 6th and 12th floor, East side, amazing we coud see sea turtles in the water from balcony. Love this place. Mae was our host in the hotel - Mahalo Mae. We flew from Poland 31 hours, 3 planes one way - it was worth for me , my fwife and our 3 dauguthers. It was holidays of our live. Mahalo and Aloha.

The location , the beachfront rooms, the vibe at dukes

Very friendly and helpful staff in all departments, spacious and clean rooms, location is perfect for beach and shopping. Restaurants could get busy at times but excellent service and food at both, recommend get to dinner early and reserve a table. No issues usually with early breakfast or lunch.

The location is phenomenal - it is right on the beach. The rooms are spacious and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The facilities in the room - coffee maker, TV, safe, iron, hairdryer, toiletries, copious amounts of towels, walk-in wardrobe - were excellent. The shower was powerful, with plenty of hot water, and the beds (two doubles) were so comfortable. The security was also great and I didn't have to wait too often for a lift (elevator). The partial ocean view was really good - we could even spot some sea turtles in the ocean from the (albeit very tiny) balcony. The Hula Grill had good quality food and the Hula Pie was really delicious :D

location is unbeatable
