Hotel pool with waterslide in Honolulu?
Does anyone know of a hotel in Honolulu that has a nice pool and waterslide? I have a child who has been spoiled by the great resort hotel pools on Maui and the Big Island, and would love to know if there is a Honolulu hotel with a similar type pool. Thanks in advance.

I lived in Hawaii for 13 years - as far as I know there aren't any great resorts on Oahu with a nice pool. There is a nice waterpark called hawaii adventures park. Of course you have to pay to go there. The resorts on the outer islands have the wonderful poos with slides, elevators, rivers etc.

That was my impression but I didn't know for sure (no "great resort hotel pools"). Even the nicer hotels in Waikiki often have these dinky little pools. That makes sense that it's a space issue, as real estate is expensive and population is so dense there.

Thanks for the replies. I suspected that Honolulu/Oahu hotels don't have amazing pools like Maui's Grand Wailea or Westin, etc. but I was hoping that there might be at least one hotel with a decent waterslide and pool. Thanks, suze for the Hilton suggestion - I looked at the website and noticed there was no mention of waterslide (in my experience, hotels will mention it if they have one.) Itnanabe thanks for the water park reference but I'd prefer to relax at a nice hotel as I've done enough waterparks here in Calif.... I'l wait for possibly more responses but maybe I need to go back to the other islands after all.

No hotels with waterslides on Oahu.
Besides Hawaiian Adventures Water Park, the Starlet of Honolulu has a waterslide & trampoline that they take out in the ocean. Don't know if there is a minimum age limit.
There is so much more to do on Oahu than the other islands. I can't see giving up on an island simply becaues a hotel doesn't have a waterslide, specially if you have already seen the other islands.
