This is another reason why I kept the HR Waikiki, in case I do change my mind.

You are only closer to Pearl Harbor by about 20 blocks. You are still an hour away by bus or pretty much the same driving distance from either property by car/shuttle. In fact, it may even be a longer drive from the Alana as freeway access from the Alana is more difficult than it is from the Hilton Waikiki Beach (straight shot up Kapahulu). But I understand your point about cost.
Are you using points for the HR Waikiki? If cost (or points) is that important, perhaps the Hyatt Place might be better suited? Less points, no resort fee and the location is about a block from the Hilton Waikiki Beach, and about 5 blocks from the HR. Free breakfast buffet there as well (no status needed), similar to the one at Hilton Waikiki.
