Saved POKE!

It was wonderful and what got me the most is that we had poke that needed to be frozen for our trip! They offered to freeze it before we left the hotel. I really appreciated that. Not other hotel would do it. We checked out at 11am however our flight was at 4:45pm

Room was decent size, but a bizarre layout with all glass from bathroom, shower and bedroom. Good thing I was alone. Very strange. A bit noisy maybe for some but didn’t bother me. Low murmur of Voices from bar next door. TV didn’t work, didn’t notice until 10pm. Staff came, tried to reprogram but couldn’t. I was offered a room change, but at that late hour I was exhausted and didn’t want to pack up. Only stayed one night. Pool area looked nice. Small, but clean and comfortable.

I recently stayed at the Polynesian Residences and had a fantastic experience. The location is a major plus, with easy walkability to the beautiful beachfront and close access to numerous convenient stores and restaurants. The studio layout includes a sink, microwave, and two-burner stove, making it a cost-effective option for travelers who prefer to prepare their own meals rather than dining out. The hotel is family-friendly, with spacious rooms and bathrooms that accommodate everyone comfortably. The front desk staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. The pool area was a delightful retreat, not crowded, providing a perfect spot to relax. Additionally, the second-floor deck offers a great space for various open-air activities. For the price in Waikiki, I highly recommend the Polynesian Residences for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay!

For the price I paid, it’s about what you might expect. The bathrooms smell moldy (our fan didn’t work) and the coffee machine in the room did not work. Beds were comfy, and pool area: a great place to hang out. Staff are very helpful.
