Great video and was there in that hotel , the same time as the Maui fires. I stayed in one of their 8 ocean front rooms on the 8th floor. The lanai was almost as big as the bedroom with 2 pool lounge chairs , 2 chairs , table and more extra space. Loved the extra and private outdoor square footage.

Amazing hotel. Pretty much the first Waikiki hotel to book up, often more than a year out. Next best choice... Outrigger Beachcomber.

@@TheHawaiiVacationGuide We actually booked the Embassy Suites Beach Walk for our next trip to Oahu (before heading to Aulani). After a lengthy comparison, no other Waikiki hotel offered the ammenities that compared. Talking about Venn Diagrams, it seems no other hotel there can touch the Embassy Suites for price, location, ammenities, pool, service, size of rooms, view, etc. If you've covered that hotel in a review, I'll need to look it up.

Younger vacationers prefer BNB, Air BNB, Hostels, STR unlike their parents and grand parents generation. They are more interested in ACTIVITIES, rather than the glitz of a resort. The tourist industry is still pushing a dinosaur rather than accommodating the new trend. Kodak went bankrupt for refusing to go along with the digital cameras and accessories. A hard lesson from history - even BIG BOYS can go down with the ship.
