OMG the birds, the birds are insane.... if you don't stay in the makai (?sp) building expect pure misery with the birds. Carefully read the tripadvisor reviews.
There are some fantastic awesome features of this property as well but an informed consumer.
If you are mobility compromised in any way or just want to get in and out quickly on business DO NOT stay here.
If you love loud squawking birds, hate upgrades (if you have status) but enjoy meandering around a HUGE beautiful property that has access to excellent trails, plenty of pool space, $$$$$ food, and walking .5 miles to your car this is the place for you.
To each their own. My wife and I completely enjoyed our stay there Summer 2014. Award stay so no resort fees. free internet. 2 $10 coupons per day towards food and maybe more. We stayed in the Ocean tower, with the upgrade from what we booked, at the Buddha Point end with fantastic ocean and sunsets view. Birds were not a problem. Yes they were there and making bird noises, but heard them everywhere in Hawaii, not just the resort and added to the paradise feel. And self park was $17 Summer 2014. Between walking, the tram and the boats, very easy to get around.
