The Courtyard is the night before for kids who won't sit still. A freshwater garden pool, a heated saltwater pool, a whirlpool, a 9-hole mini golf course and kitchenettes in select rooms, a walk from Waikiki Beach and the International Market Place.
Check-in is 4 PM, an hour later than most of the twenty, so land early and you'll be waiting by the pool rather than in your room.
Tenth on 29, it's held back by breakfast, which Marriott says isn't free, and by valet at $63 a day with no self-park. Pier 2 is about 3.3 miles away by road on our estimate.
Book a kitchenette room for the kids' breakfast, and ask about the Robert's Hawaii airport ride when you reserve.
Book it if
- Families with kids
- Swimmers
- Pet owners, up to three pets
Look elsewhere if
