Do you have a Moana-obsessed family? In preparation for the highly anticipated Moana 2 sequel, family travelers are invited to take family travel to Hawai’i to explore and celebrate the rich history of Polynesian cultures and traditions at these three family-friendly hotels.

 

The Surfjack Hotel & Swim Club

For a traditional Hawai’i family experience in Honolulu, stay at retro-inspired Surfjack Hotel & Swim Club. Families staying at this hotel can soak up the Hawaiian sunshine; make a splash at the customized Wish You Were Here pool; indulge in award-winning regional dishes at Mahina & Sun’s; and take part in on-site activities like movie nights, meet and greets with the hotel dog Jack, Aqua Zumba class and more. The hotel features one- to three-bedroom suites, giving families plenty of room. Centrally located, this property lets families explore the area’s delicious restaurants, top attractions, shopping and the golden sand of Waikiki Beach.

 

Aqua-Aston Hospitality

Offering a diverse portfolio of more than 25 hotels and condo-style resorts, Aqua-Aston Hospitality has plenty of accommodations for families at an affordable price. Families looking for outdoor activities such as swimming, golfing and tennis should stay at Aston Kaanapali Shores in Maui. The property also offers cultural activities such as Hawaiian weaving, hula lessons, lei-making classes and ukulele lessons. Over in Oahu, Aston Waikiki Beach Tower offers residential-style suites, hula lessons, lei-making classes, ukulele lessons, access to the famous Waikiki Beach, and complimentary access to Bishop Museum and Honolulu Museum of Art.

 

Wailea Beach Resort

Located on the ocean, Wailea Beach Resort offers the ultimate luxurious escape for families. The resort features four stunning pools, one of which features the longest resort waterslide in Hawai’i. The expansive NALU pool has four water slides, some splash zones, a swim-through grotto and family cabanas. Take advantage of Keiki Kids Club, for children 5–12, offering themed activities for children to have a deeper understanding of Hawaiian culture, history and environment. For older kids, check out the GameSpace area featuring foosball and pool tables, shuffleboard, and vintage arcade games.
