I just checked in for 5 nights at the Mariott Beach Resort Waikiki and got 5 breakfast vouchers. I have Gold. I thought there should be 10 vouchers, that my wife should get them to. (She's Silver if that matters.) They say only 5 because they're a resort. Is that right? Thanks.

nothing in life is totally free. If all Silvers got the same as Gold and PLT then why go past Silver? Really now

You should always play around with either the package or member tabs when making a reservation, as often there is a package or Rewards member-only deal with breakfast included. Not just here, but other properties. Sometimes it's actually a good deal.

Yeah, that's good advice but I'm on a reward stay, so not many booking options for me this time.

Has anyone stayed at the Waikiki CY lately? The reviews I've read are bad...we were thinking of upgrading my TP cat 1-5 cert to cat 7 to stay here. Are there any good rooms there? Which building has the renovated rooms? Are there any quiet rooms? Appreciate any advice. Thanks!

They were still finishing up the refurbish when I was last there but I was in a remodeled room and it wasn't great.
The quality of the work was really shoddy, and it detracted from the usefulness of the room and the room I was in originally had a functioning balcony and it was permanently closed (other rooms were only temporary I think)
We were only there 1 night as it was our heading back night, and it was OK for that, If you are staying in Waikiki for several days I would suggest the Marriott Waikiki is a better choice.

Any tips on which tower or type of room to stay at Courtyard. I couldn't tell if staying in the main hotel or the tower was best. Appreciate any tips. Wish we had more points to upgrade further to Marriott Waikiki but don't.

The Laylow, Autograph Collection, which is not my favorite hotel due to their disingenuous execution of Marriott terms and conditions, is the same award-redemption category at the Courtyard Waikiki. Why not book there? Much better hotel, if only rooms and the daily vouchers toward all or part of a breakfast. Plus, it's marginally closer to the beach.
