Which hotel is better? ResortQuest Waikiki Beach Hotel or Pacific Beach Hotel??

We will be going Early June 2008. We are a young couple but we are not into clubbing or bar scenes, we want to see all of the sights and beaches. Thanks for the help!Which hotel is better? ResortQuest Waikiki Beach Hotel or Pacific Beach Hotel??
Resort Quest Waikiki is the former Aston Waikiki. We have stayed there; rooms are clean and cute decor but rather small (no biggie as we spend our time OUTDOORS rather than in the room, anyway) and there is valet parking so expect to have to tip. Usually takes about 15 minutes for them to bring your vehicle up.


If you stay in the back building you do not get to partake in the free breakfast on the beach program (which was basically an insulated lunch kit, you grab what you want from the breakfast buffet and walk across the street to the beach.) Not familiar with Pacific Beach Hotel as we stayed at the other, but you might go to tripadvisor.com and read reviews.Which hotel is better? ResortQuest Waikiki Beach Hotel or Pacific Beach Hotel??
Pacific Beach Hotel was great. We used it for our honeymoon. Just across the street from beach and in the middle of a large retail area with plenty of shopping for the wife and lots of nice restaurants. AND the aquarium in the bar and restaurant of the hotel was a great topic of discussion as we sat at breakfast every morning. Ask for a beach view room though and they are more expensive than the regular rooms were!
My husband and I have been to waikiki 3 times...the last time we stayed at ResortQuest Waikiki Beach - we booked one of their junior suites. It was a sweet room...we really liked it - but we tend to be on the thrifty side and I have to say that it was expensive. Their prices are pretty steep - parking $20 a day, internet $13 a day, I agree with some that you're barely going to spend time in your room - so keep that in mind before you splurge.


Here are a few sites that I am almost certain will help you...I personally used them for my trips:

Good luck and have tons of fun! Aloha!
I was right next door to the Resort Quest and let me tell ya, that place looked like A LOT of fun. Constant parties. Every morning you get woken up by beautiful music, puts you in the perfect ';Hawaii mood';. they must have free breakfast because from my balcony you could see the buffet area by the pool jam packed by 8am. I'd actually consider staying there my next trip.

Depends where in the country you go. This is not a tiny island you can pee across. As long as 10 hours between destinations driving with a hot foot and several ecosystems to chose from.

    Closest airport to Lahaina: Kaanapali beach hotel?

    Whats the closest airport to Lahaina: Kaanapali beach hotelClosest airport to Lahaina: Kaanapali beach hotel?
    The closest airport is the Kapalua West Maui Airport (JHM). But you can only fly to and from Oahu (Honolulu) using that airport. You cannot fly from the mainland to JHM. So if you want to arrive on Maui at JHM and be only 10 minutes away from you hotel, then you will have to fly from the mainland to Honolulu, and there change planes to fly from Honolulu to the Kapalua West Maui Airport. The airline that does this flight is Island Air, and the planes are two-engine propeller planes that carry up to 35 passengers.





    For LOTS more info about Maui hotels, restaurants, sights, activities and more, see


    http://www.mauihawaii.orgClosest airport to Lahaina: Kaanapali beach hotel?
    Kapalua West Maui Airport (JHM): Approximate driving time to Kaanapali Beach Hotel is 10 minutes, and distance is 4 miles.
    Listen to Webkinz....you want to go to OGG. It is not very far to Lahaina and I think that you can get the hotel to shuttle you to/from the airport. However, you may want to rent a car on the island....lots of things to do and see AND you will need a car for that!
    You really want to go into OGG, Maui's main airport. It's not that big of an island, and most of the major airlines service OGG airport from the mainland. Hawaiian and Aloha service it from HNL almost every hour. It will only take you about a 45 minute, and very beautiful drive to Kaanapali beach from OGG.
