The Twin Fin

Honolulu, Oahu

Virgin rating

The hotel

Situated right at the end of Waikiki Beach, just across the road from that soft, powdery sand, this large friendly hotel is in a slightly quieter spot than some other hotels and offers a fun and playful atmosphere. The rooms are decorated in a colourful, tropical style. On the 3rd floor, Tiki's Grill & Bar is a cool hangout with a real Hawaiian atmosphere — there's tasty locally sourced dishes, live entertainment and an outdoor terrace to sip a cocktail as you watch the sun set.

The front desk reception is a valuable part of a stay at any hotel/resort and a warm welcome is always appreciated!! Read less

A/C and internet upgrades are a must, and what’s up with the elevators. Barely worked and took forever, no in room dining 🤦🏾‍♂️ And I won’t mention everything else. Brian was the only help and delight of the whole hotel

Very clean a little older but still very nice breakfast is ok pricey but good with a great view. We ate out everyday. Not a rowdy crowd Lotta families. Guest service very responsive and text you to see if you need anything. Would stay again. Towels chairs boogie boards etc. Available at no extra cost.

You're paying for the location and the convenience of walking across the street to get to the beach. The hotel overall is fun and funky and relaxing. We had a great time. The restaurant was one of very few places that seemed to understand gluten allergies so that was a big plus. But there were not a ton of menu options so we did need to venture out to other places to eat. The hotel is a bit dated and we had to move our boys' room after the second night because the nose the wind made whipping across their balcony sounded like people screaming. Our ocean view room didn't have that problem. Recommend for a luxury family vacation near the beach. Read less

This hotel fit our needs perfectly! The location and view were perfect. We upgraded to a suite since it there were 4 adults in the room. A standard room would have been tight. It is not a luxury hotel but for the price in Waikiki, it fit the bill. If you have money to spend go somewhere else but if you need a nice place for a home base than… Read more
