That's what I like about the series of tourbooks I recommended. The authors claim to have actually stayed in all of the hotels listed (anonymously--not comped) at least a couple times each.
Mrs. Noah and I stayed in the Keauhou Beach Resort when we visited the Big Island. We splurged for an oceanfront room, which is what made it worthwhile. (Otherwise the hotel was OK, but not necessarily spectacular: pool, tennis courts, public white sandy public with decent snorkling next door, restaurant/bar,etc.) The end of the hotel is built on stilts over a fish pond. At night with the hotel lights lit up, fish would swim up to the edge (and under) the hotel. It was like having your own personal fish pond right there. That was cool.
I can't remember the places I've stayed when visiting Oahu and Maui. Too long ago.
