This hotel is small, yet it has a nice pool with a bar and nightly entertainment, which ends at a reasonable time so if you’re close to the pool, you can sleep without too much noise. And the staff if tops!

Review of White Sands Hotel
Reviewed Jul 13, 2022
highly recommend this hotel!! It is a Fun, Comfortable, Clean and Trendy Hotel Right in the heart of Waikiki. Walking distance to beach, restaurants, ABC Stores, shopping. Service from the hotel and restaurant/pool side was amazing, the restaurant was delicious and affordable. Pool is clean and had floats to use, they did a pool party on Sunday which was SO FUN. The room was very comfortable and trendy however there was construction and constant noise going on in the garage next to our room so sleep quality was poor.

Please make sure to review final invoices as it tend to be extra hidden charges that don’t match the total amount. The itemized bill is also very confusing as it breaks down differently as the original reservation confirmation.

Nice little boutique hotel in the heart of Waikiki. Top restaurants and the beach just around the corner. The pool and its bar are amazing and we look forward to coming back. Also check out the live music they have playing every evening

We enjoyed this hotel oasis in downtown Waikiki: the room, pool, hot tub grotto, bar with swings (!), food from Heyday, lovely intimate grounds, and splendid service! We loved the “Tiny Bubbles”
Song and corresponding soap bubbles that filled the pool area at 12 and 5’PM. Coffee from the front desk was better than any around. Mahalo! Can’t wait to return!

Not worth what you pay. Its dirty in the rooms and musty smelling. They have a pool party on sundays that sucks but they bill it as the party of parties. Just a bunch of loud music if you ask me. Book another place if you're smart.
