Stayed at the Hilton Honolulu Village timeshare in wonderful two-bedroom, beach front condo with Waikiki Beach walking for my friends to enjoy. Polynesian cultural center, North Shore beaches, and snorkeling at Hanama bay are enjoyable.

Best Things About the Resort:
location near Waikiki beach, lots of stores and restaurants within walking distance, view of Diamond Head, submarine adventure on grounds

Resort Experience:
Spacious, modern two-bedroom with two bathrooms. Two balconies, both with different ocean views - we had the standard side with view of ships in dock and some garbage dumpsters below, but could see ocean view from second balcony. No jet tub/jacuzzi in room, but has one hot tub and pool with limited hours (closed at 7pm), which we never had time to use.

Experience

Lots to do for several trips back. Stayed in beautiful two-bedroom Hilton timeshare with very helpful staff. Whale-watching cruise was nice, though only saw one whale. Polynesian Cultural Center with show and luau (fairly good but expensive day). Beaches everywhere with snorkeling, swimming, tanning and surfers at different beaches.

Entertainment book big help with 2-for-1 meals and discounts. Probably saved $150 total for week for a $35 book.
