I had a great time at this resort, especially with its family-friendly facilities and access to water sports, making it a perfect spot for family vacations. The spacious suites and on-site dining options were highlights of our stay. However, the experience was marred by the overcrowding issues and lack of cleanliness in public areas, which was concerning given the current health guidelines.

The Grand Waikikian offers spacious accommodations with a very appealing view, perfect for families, but the overall facilities and services left much to be desired. Unfortunately, maintenance issues with outdated appliances and crowded pool areas negatively impacted the experience. While the location is convenient for beach access, the overcrowding made it challenging to enjoy the amenities fully. Overall, it feels like improvements are necessary to justify the cost.
