Most Complete Review of Marriott Waiohai Beach Club Resort

overview
July 28th 2005 -- I searched three major search engines for several Waiohai related terms including "review Waiohai", and "stayed Waiohai".

I found 25 useable reviews -- 20 positive ones, and 5 negative ones.

Preparer's notes
The Marriott Waiohai is located right on Poipu Beach which is great for snorkeling, surfing, and body boarding! Most reviewers thought the location of the hotel was its best feature along with access to what is considered one of the best beaches in Hawaii. A few reviewers were disappointed that there were no bellstaff or pool waiters and many complained about the abundance of children at the resort, especially at the pool. This is a great place for families and provides plenty of room for big groups to stretch out but not the best place for honeymooners who may want some peace and quiet.
