The Best Family-Friendly Resorts in Hawaii, According to a Local | Condé Nast Traveler

"Sometimes all you want to do is sit by the pool and relax, and here that means choosing among five pools—including the 10,000-square-foot Super Pool, Waikīkī’s largest beachfront pool—and then wandering over to the five-acre saltwater Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon to try stand-up paddle yoga, ride an Aqua-Cycle, or even “swim like a mermaid.” Families can hop aboard the hotel catamaran for a snorkeling tour, and little ones can join Camp Penguin for supervised half- and full-day themed activities, while the central Waikīkī location keeps family-friendly shops, restaurants, the Waikīkī Aquarium, and the Honolulu Zoo within an easy walk. Cap a Friday with the resort’s longstanding free fireworks show on the beach—a weekly tradition since 1988." - Catherine Toth Fox
