Sheraton Anaheim: No "real" suites were available apparently - but given a large "Junior suite". These rooms are not listed on the website for sale, and my itin was pre-upgraded to say Deluxe renovated room, however at check in it was called the Junior suite! Still it was a nice room, but I would have preferred a "real" suite

Sheraton Maui: Upgraded to a fantastic Ohana suite with a lovely ocean view. I think this was probably my favourite upgrade so far this year ^. The bathrooms are huge, with separate shower and double sinks, and lav in its own room. The view was fantastic. Pre-upgraded prior to arrival ^.

Royal Hawaiian Hotel - upgraded to a Garden view junior suite ^. View was not that great, but its a lovely two room suite with door to shut off living area from bedroom. Small bathroom but beautifully renovated. Only drawback with this room, the sitting room does not have an A/C unit or a ceiling fan and it gets very hot in there and even at night we found it didnt cool down much. Loved everything else about this suite.

Sheraton Princess Kauliani - massive one room suite with huge bathroom, great views on the top floor. It is a retro 1970s look but its clean and it was a great layout with a little kitchenette near the entry door. The bathroom is huge with a spa bath that actually works ^ and lots of closet space. The Flat screen TV is on a swivel table and can be turned to face the King bed or the living area. There is a large bureau of drawers that is like a low divider between the bed and the living area. Apparently they will be upgrading this hotel in the next few years.
