Wyndham at Waikiki Beach Walk ** Gold Crown- 5 Star Resort **

Overall, this was a very good place. The location was great (even though not on the beach) -the beach is about a 5 minute walk. Plenty of good eating spots in immediate area. Having a car is a plus if you want to get out around town but you do have to deal with valet parking that is overpriced but at the same cost as other local hotels. Check-in was smooth and everything was ready on time. One slight issue was the "welcome desk" that wanted to talk and talk when you really only want to get to your room after a 12 hour trip and of course they are trying to schedule you a sales presentation. They did give some good local info. The entrance/lobby area was always busy.
The rooms were very nice and clean. The beds tended to be very soft and not good for one used to a firm mattress.
The pool and gym at the resort are nothing to write home about but they are adequate. Lots of activities at the resort if you are so inclined. The attached sports bar was pretty nice and you get a discount.
The booking process was very easy and very dependable.
The best thing about the resort was getting a two bedroom, two bath place, at a price cheaper than two hotel rooms at a nice place in the area.

I thought I wrote a review for Chris, but I guess I slept on it. We arrived at Honolulu at 11am and check-in was at 3pm. We decided to try and call Wyndham if they had a room ready for the family and I. Turned out there was and we had an opportunity for an early check-in!
The accomodations provided to the family was great. Condo was very spacious and accomodating for 4 adults and a toddler.
Great location, You step outside the Wyndham and across the street is the Beach Walk, filled with stores and restaurants. 2-3 blocks down the way is the end of Waikiki Beach, so its fairly secluded.
Listing was accurate and location was great. The photos you see posted are exactly what you get. Property was clean and well-maintained. The owner, Chris, provided all answers to any questions I had. Great Customer Service. I would definitely recommend staying here again to anyone, as well, as myself when I have the need to visit family in Oahu.
*The only negative I had during our stay was it was the weekend of APEC2011, which FLOODED and closed down many roads and hotels, especially the Hale Koa Hotel and Parking. Also, the weekend when all delegates arrived, staying at either Hale Koa and Halekulani, there was a checkpoint on Lewers St, right in front of the Wyndham and Embassy Suites. I had to find an available parking structure, and the only one that offered me anything was on Kalakaua Ave and McCully St, It didn't bother me much, but it did bother me. Being in Waikiki, while on vacation, how could that bring me down?

To close, I'd like to say, Chris! I'm planning to stay again fall of 2012 and I'm leaning towards staying with you again!

The resort and unit were way above expectations, the staff were very freindly and helpfull,we loved the unit we stayed in. Chris the owner was very helpfull with our booking and we will be booking a unit at the Wyndham again for next holliday, Cant wait.
Thanks Chris for making the whole experience so enjoyable
