Fodor's Expert Review Marriott's Ko Olina Beach Club
92-161 Waipahe Pl., Ko Olina, Hawaii, 96707, USA
Though primarily a time-share property, the Marriott here also offers nightly rentals, which range from hotel-style standard guest rooms to expansive and elegantly appointed one- or two-bedroom guest villa apartments, all within Ko Olina's 642-acre gated community. Situated on 30 acres and fronting a lagoon, this Beach Club resort has three pools (one with a sandy-beach bottom), a fitness center, and seven outdoor hot tubs, including two overlooking the ocean that are ideal for sunset soaks. Guests can choose from two fine-dining restaurants on the property, a casual pool bar, and a Polynesian dinner show, or purchase groceries at The Marketplace.

- resort area offers entertainment, shopping, and dining options beyond the property
CONS
- an hour to Honolulu and Waikiki
