Incredible!!
I am so happy I chose Wayfinder. It was perfect from check in to check out.
Such a special property. Everyone is so helpful and friendly. Rooms are beautiful!! Views are amazing!
The pool is amazing. Clean and quiet.
Poolside bar has delicious drinks and food.
Very safe area if you are traveling alone.
Lots of close places to walk and shop. Easy access to beach. You don’t need a car.

Coffee shop was wonderful every morning and loved the free local newspaper.

All the employees stop and say Aloha and smile as they pass you or ride elevator with you.

I will tell everyone to give Wayfinder a try!! You won’t be disappointed!

Pros:

Great stay at the Wayfinder Waikiki. I spent four nights here and it's a good base for exploring the area. The 2x bed double room was a good size for two people. Its a little on the smaller side but great attention paid to decor, finishing touches, lighting etc. Staff were always responsive, and I was able to check in early.

Pros:

Walkable distance from the beach, the canal, the zoo and many dining options. It is next to a busy main road and cars driving by do make it a bit noisy. Other than that the property itself is clean with modern beach decor.

Pros:

The room was perfect and clean. Interior of the hotel is very pretty and gives a lot of that Hawaii vibe. Staff was very friendly and always helpful. Pool was amazing too. Very close to Waikiki beach and the main street, literally 3-4 min walk. Loved everything about staying in that hotel!

Pros:

Beautiful place, full of amazing staff! K behind the check in desk couldn't have done anything more if she tried to make my stay comfortable, nothing short of brilliant!
A lovely lady in the poke restaurant also who helped me go through the menu and configure a bowl to my taste (delicious I must add) Room was very comfortable, clean and nicely designed. Pool area also nice, lots of planned activities through the day. Thoroughly recommend!

Pros:

I would definitely stay at this hotel again! I wasn't in the midst of Waikiki crowds, but a short walk away to enjoy the shops and dining and the beach. I loved the decor, my room was comfortable, quiet, staff were all super friendly, and I had a nice view. I did arrive earlier than check-in time and waited in the lobby where I was able to check in 30 min prior to the 4pm check-in time. You can leave your luggage, but I was exhausted and just wanted to relax. I did have a car and I used valet daily and they were also super friendly and prompt with getting my car. I never had to wait more than 6 min, which was pretty awesome!

Pros:

Super convenient to downtown but far enough away to be on the quieter side. The restaurant downstairs is good and the pool is gorgeous! Only complaint really is that the pillows are super duper squishy haha got a stiff neck halfway through the trip lol

Everything was quite good! Cool boutique resort that had some unique features and services. The only downside was finding a vape in our bathroom on day 7 of our stay, but assuming it was just a housekeeper that left it behind…

Pros:

Customer service was amazing! Our room and the facility was neat and clean. After travel for almost 23 hours with a 6 hour time change, I was disappointed that there was no elevator, and our room was on the 3rd floor. Staff was gracious to carry our luggage up to our room. Shopping & other dining options are a short walk.
