I am writing this message from the HHV Lagoon Tower. We are in a 2br Oceanfront unit. A couple of months ago, we stayed in the Grand Waikikian in a 2br full oceanview. Both are 2br Premier units.
I can say that we much prefer the Lagoon Tower over the Grand Waikikian.
The view in the Lagoon Tower is way better than in the Grand Waikikian. You can look up the coast toward Kapolei and you have a really nice view of the lagoon. In the Grand Waikikian, you get a view of the Ilikai and the Marina. No contest. Lagoon Tower wins hands down.
The Lagoon Tower unit is much nicer, too. The living room is huge and has 2 balconies. When you are entertaining, it feels like a very large and spacious unit. There is no jetted tub, but I don't miss that. I would say that the furnishings are a bit higher end in the Grand Waikikian, but I am not much into that anyway.
Location within the resort in the Lagoon Tower is far superior to the Grand Waikikian, too. You actually feel like you are part of the Hilton Hawaiian Village as opposed to being a part of Ala Moana blvd and the Ilikai hotel.
From now on, I will be staying in the Lagoon Tower. It's the far better choice for us.
