South O'ahu hotel rooms a the Independent

"Property was great. Very clean. Staff were the best part. Very friendly. I noticed that the hotel was undergoing upgrades to some rooms, particularly the room right above mine. They started banging at 7am. And I did mention that thus was a disruption to my sleep and they took care of some of the charges applied to my room. I’m happy with the overall experience though. Would stay here again. "

"Would have appreciated written instructions or diagram to the airport shuttle pickup area. Maybe it was on the hotel’s website…but I could not find it."

"Friendly staff, great location near by beach, market."

"Loved this hotel, the renovated part of the hotel is beautiful. It’s farther away from the beach but only by 10-15 minutes "

"Loved our stay here in Vive. Breakfast- bread, oatmeal, eggs, muffins, alternating sausage/bacon/longanisa, coffee, hot and cold tea is a great plus as well as the complimentary use of beach chairs, umbrella and beach mats. Use of hotel resort fees that’s actually beneficial to guests. Short 3-5 minute walk to the beach, food trucks, and abc stores. Helpful and courteous staff. No swimming pool, hot tubs or gym. A short 5 minute walk to trolley stops. Will definitely come back to stay here...

"Rooms are small but very clean. It has a boutique feel about it. Staff were great and the adjoining restaurant was really yummy."

"The hotel is worth its price, good location, in the center close to shops"

"I was happy with the rate including parking for the least expensive room. My view was of a vibrant palm tree. Room was spacious, furniture solid and convenient, bed comfortable. Small complaint was two little bugs and a hair; otherwise, room was super clean. "
