  • We recently spent 8 nights at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort on Oahu. Here are 5 things you need to know before you go, from the perspective of two young(ish) adults traveling without kids. (We traveled to Hawaii for Tre's soccer tournament, but he was with his team most of the time and we barely saw him!).
    If you have any specific questions about the resort, feel free to ask them in the comments below and we will answer if we can!

    FYI there actually is an adults only pool. Its on the 4th floor of the Kalia Tower- same floor as the Spa. Kalia is a timeshare tower but all adult Hilton guests can use the pool

    Hawaii is a state. You don't go back to the "states," you return to the mainland.

    I appreciate the info about point #1, which is the most important thing for us, we are pass our 50's and the last thing we want is a place surrender by children everywhere

    I've stayed here a few times for work and really enjoyed the resort. The beach is fantastic.

    I watched up to the point where you said "a lot of kids" and that earned my 'like'! Thanks!!

    Thank you so much for this video. We’re coming in July for our wedding anniversary and was considering this hotel but we wanted a romantic stay. Glad the #1 warned us about all the children lol

    Waikiki was once a playground for Hawaiian royalty.

    @3:00 "back in the states". ....saying this in Hawaii is offensive. Hawaii is a state.

    Hi guys! Great video full of information. I am traveling with my wife to hhv next week (no kids). I have a couple of question:
    1- I read somewhere that you should rent a car to go around town and the transfer from the airport will be very expensive? Would you say a car is needed?
    2- what were the breakfast options like? Looking for recommendations for cheap food
    Thanks!!

    #1 is ridiculous... romantic getaways are what you make them, no matter where you go

    • @Caderic
      @Caderic Před 2 lety +1

      Although, I agree, romantic getaways are what you make it. Using the word ridiculous, is ridiculous in and of itself.

    Ko'olina is a great place for couple but they get also Aulani Disney for the kids. And in Aulani, they get adult pools and kid's pools as well.

    • @StarzzyJJASD
      @StarzzyJJASD Před 4 lety +1

      If I'm going on holiday to Hawaii, last thing I want to do is go to a Disney resort, especially in Hawaii, if I want Disneyland I will either go on holiday to Florida walt Disney world or Disneyland in California,

    • @forme3h
      @forme3h Před 4 lety

      Liam Daley true that. But Aulani is very different from any other Disney parks. But Koolina has other resorts too, like Marriott and Four Seasons.

    Hilton Hawaiian village hotel is dated ,they definitely could update it , and as you mentioned it's to far from everything, I prefer staying at the mona surfrider hotel perfect location very upscale clean

      @TamiVilla  Před 4 lety

      I would agree that it could use a refresh! If we ever return to Honolulu, we'll be exploring other hotels, most definitely.

    @FordFracture Před 4 lety +2

    We stayed at the tapa tower and it was great 👍 and for the food the little restaurants in the middle are better food if you ask me and cheaper . The lagoon was awful ! I don't know what was wrong but it smelled horrible and it left a greasy film on our skin .

    • @TamiVilla
      @TamiVilla  Před 4 lety

      We weren't a fan of the lagoon either and also noticed that it didn't seem to be the cleanest place to relax in the water... 😬

    Families and children are there more in the summer, Christmas and spring break. If you want to avoid all the families, plan accordingly.

      Hoa Hua Hi friend, thanks for watching! Our son is 16 years old and competing at Nationals. At that age and level, they’re not really allowed to spend time with us or stay with us. We only saw him at his games and on his day off, otherwise he was with his team staying at the host hotel and always busy at practices, meetings & team bonding events! He was tied up, so we spent the rest of the time on our own vacation. We love kids, but because we were alone 90% of the time as a couple we would have preferred a more quiet atmosphere. Cheers!
