My stay was wonderful. The staff was friendly and approachable. Very close to the beach. Lots of shopping close by. My only issue is the parking. It is quite expensive. Other than that, everything else is great.

Beautiful and clean location and great surroundings. TV channels are streaming and at times connection is not good. Entrance to the hotel is confusing and during check in staff should have shared with us that there are fireworks at our hotel and should share more about relevant info we should know.

We stayed here during Thanksgiving week. When we arrived we were told about all the fees and towel cards and parking. 1. Park across the street at the car park. 2. We went out and purchased shampoo and conditioner, laundry detergent and dishwashing liquid. On the last night we needed to wash a quick load and asked the front desk if they had any for purchase. The employee states, “Oh no, you are supplied these daily, we are sorry we did not.” While we were out on the last day the maintenance folks had installed bathroom shampoo, conditioner and body wash holders and left a full bottle of conditioner. I spoke with the manager about the lack of this service and she was very rude and told me they were not a hotel and they did not supply.edits what I stated. It was not a pleasant experience with the management team.

I like the best are the staff. The day we arrived we were greeted by the parking attendant. The check-in process was very smooth, amenities were explained, we were provided with the required access cards and best of all we were assigned high floor corner suite overlooking the ocean and diamond crater. We saved on parking by almost half the price we are going to pay at the hotel by buying a monthly pass at the nearby parking garage as suggested by the hotel staff. To use the elevator you need to key in your specific floor number so we felt much safer. Overall we are satisfied with our stay.

Our family had a great stay at The Grand Islander The room was the perfect size with plenty of room. Access to the beach was a short walk through the complex, we liked that everything was an easy walking distance. If you didn't want to walk, the Village has everything you need. My only complaint or suggestion...why not queen size beds instead of doubles? A couple can not comfortably sleep on a double, and we are not large people.

Our room was super spacious and if we ran out of anything we called downstairs and they brought it back up. You really feel like you were in a village with all the things to do and see! Lots of photo ops, pools, gym, Starbucks, and entertainment by main check in desk. We saw the 5 min Friday night fireworks too. Great service !

Grand Islander experience
This property is the best at the Hilton Hawaiian village because it’s the newest and there’s a private pool on the 3rd floor that is barely used. It is a big difference when you check out the other pools on the property. The room and everything in this timeshare condo type apartment was top of the line and newer. It made the stay comfortable and luxurious.

Wonderful stay!
This place is in a great location. No need for a car really unless you are exploring the other parts of Oahu. Ubers very reasonable around here. Room was perfect for our family of 4. Only bad part was our first room was on the 5th floor and from our balcony and all windows looked directly at a huge air conditioning duct. Like that is all you could see. I wanted to cry, went down to the desk, and they said it was a "resort view". I showed them a picture of it. She was a little shocked at what we had as a view too. Moved us up to the 29th floor the next day! Great service! Room had everything you could need! Parking is steep! Downstairs pools were overcrowded, but had some good pools on the 3rd, and 4th floor. One was adults only, loved that! I would say that it was a perfect stay with great customer service! Kids are 18 and 21 and had a blast. I recommend taking a ride on the Mai Tai catamaran! Look at Groupon for deals on the island. Don't waste money on turtle tours, they were at all the beaches, INCLUDING the water right in front of the hotel. That was a surprise! Saw 3-4 of them while snorkleing.

The hotel room itself was beautiful and clean and the staff were so helpful and friendly. I would not stay at this property again though because they nickel and dime you for everything. Beach chairs for example were $85 for two. If you want to sit in a chair at the beach or lagoon this is your only option. Also, the entire Hilton resort is huge and takes awhile to get from one place to another. For these reasons I would not stay here again.

Family vacation
Room was beautiful and very comfortable. Parking fee was ridiculous and not listed when I made the reservation so it was a surprise to pay $62/night in addition to the resort fee. And the one parking garage for all the Hilton towers was not connected to our particular tower so for the high fee we still had to walk through the village to get to and from. Elevators were frustrating as the digital touch screen did not always work so we had to re-enter our floor number multiple times before it worked almost every time we used it. TV’s in room used a mouse system on the remote for apps and was very difficult to use at times. Other than the elevator, tvs and parking fee, our stay was great. Good pools and everything you need was available in the village. Lots of shops, restaurants, and live entertainment at night, and lots of pools to choose from. Would stay here again.

Our suite was on the 32nd floor with two balconies. The suite was really nice with upgraded appliances and the staff did a great job daily. The private pool at the grand islander was nice, and the facilities were great. The suite was lacking some expected items like dish cloths and towels, there was no recycling, and the pull out couch bed was horrible (the main king bed was nice). I liked the countertop chargers and waterfall shower. Expect to pay a lot of extra for valet parking ($72 US a day and they don’t even go to your hotel, you have to go to the main lobby a block away). Also there’s a daily resort fee too of $40. Two chairs and an umbrella at the beach will run you $90US a day. The hotel itself is beautiful. The pools are all nice, the beach is nice, the food and options and shopping is great. Make sure to catch the fireworks on the beach or from your balcony on Friday nights.

Decent hotel but could have been more accomodating
Check in was not available until 4pm. We were at the hotel by 11am so this was a major inconvenience for us. We felt like an entire day was wasted. The staff did not inform us of the lounge on the 3rd floor that we could have waited in and let the kids swim while we wait. We also had to park offsite because the hotel parking was ridiculously expensive. The hotel was clean and the kitchen was nice and had everything we needed to cook. I wish the hotel staff was a little more accomodating. The hot tub was also not available during most of our stay which was a bummer as well.

Grand Islander: Grand Experience
It would be helpful to know the Hilton Hawaiian Village is truly a village with the 5 or 6 hotels on outside and restaurants/ cafe/bar/pools are contained between them. If you crave variety in food choices, yu might head to Waikiki. That was a drawback fo us. Our Grand Islander suite was clean, comfortable and had a well-equipped kitchen. Mountain views were spectacular and we had 2 balconies to choose from so breeze wasn't a problem.

Wonderful Vacay with the fam! 9/10!
Definitely, one of our favorite trips largely due to the hotel. We had a 2 bedroom suite for our family of 5. There was so much room, loved that there was a kitchen and laundry - washer and dryer! Bonus points for the bidet. Housekeeping came everyday to our room and the whole hotel in general was very clean. What would have made this trip a 10/10 is having valet at the actual hotel. We had to walk about 5 minutes to another part of the resort just to do valet. Just a bit difficult to do with little children in tow and carrying groceries. Valet was $70, compared to $60 self park.

The grounds alone were worth the stay.
This was an amazing trip with all the bells and whistles. We got upgraded to the penthouse (incredible) we had ocean view before upgrade and they honored that view with the upgrade! They give you free bottled water which is a great reminder to stay hydrated. You cannot beat the view and the grounds were pristine which is impressive when you consider the amount of foot traffic this place sees in a day. The pools are beautiful but prepare to find difficulty getting a spot at the pool (it fills up quickly). Our kiddos were absolutely thrilled with all the amenities! Comfortable bedding which is very important to me. The Aloha spirit is everywhere. REMEMBER to treat everyone with kindness especially those taking care of you during our stay. We saw some nastiness because of guests being either tired or grouchy either way it was totally not warranted and directed at people who are taking care of you in such a welcoming manner.
