The hotel had many pleasant seating areas in both quiet and busy areas. Great. Terrific staff at this hotel! Friendly, helpful. Just wonderful." - Ruben Pradel, Des Moines, Washington "What a beautiful Hotel! Very nice staff." - Matt Grabowski, East Pointe, Missouri "From the moment we checked in to the time we left, we were impressed by your staff's willingness to go the extra nine yards to make sure our stay was enjoyable. The grounds were immaculate, the pool area always clean and neat with enough chaises and towels available, as well as shaded areas that we could retreat to when necessary. We also appreciated the little things: rows of orchids in the lobby, room amenities, soft Hawaiian music poolside capturing the mood of the islands, the magnificent views of Waikiki. All subtle reminders that we were truly in paradise. When we return next year, we will choose Marriott because of the outstanding service and luxury that you offer at affordable prices. Thank you for your high standards of excellence." - Mr. & Mrs. William H. Swick, Manahawkin, New Jersey "I was very impressed with the cleanliness of the room. This hotel staff was awesome! They make a great team running the hotel. Everyone I came in contact with was excellent. Again, I must say how much I enjoyed this hotel!

We felt very comfortable here." - Robert & Pamela Starrett, Redding, Connecticut "The rooms were beautifully and luxuriously decorated with the most comfortable and luxurious beds we have ever slept on.

Just a few steps from the Pacific Ocean!" - Rhonda C. of Springhill, LA "This hotel made everything perfect." - Mike W. of Iowa City, IA "Across from Waikiki Beach and near everything. The service was outstanding and the staff is very friendly. This hotel has all the amenities. Poolside entertainment and bar are excellent. This hotel is one of the best in Waikiki." - Jerome L. "Thank you so much for making our stay so enjoyable. We stayed one night at the Hilton before we stayed with you the rest of our trip & there's No comparison! Your rooms & hospitality FAR exceed the Hilton. Thanks for being so nice! Everyone was nice, helpful from the maids to the bellboy and valet guys. The desk help was wonderful, too.

Our handmade sushi soap is made by using real nigiri sushi rice molds from Japan, and the fish part is made by hand marbling white veins of soap into colored soap for a more realistic and natural look where no two pieces are alike. Like a great Japanese sushi chef, this takes a practiced eye and hand to get the sushi fish looking just right. Nigiri means "pressed in the hand." The sushi chef forms a small oval of rice and then tops it with a choice strip of fish or shellfish. Our Maguro(Tuna) nigiri sushi soap, Salmon nigiri soap, and Hirame(Halibut) nigiri sushi soap will leave you smelling clean, not fishy. It is scented with the fresh smell of peppermint. These handmade glycerin soaps are hypo-allergenic and made with the highest quality of ingredients. See our complete soap ingredient listing below.
