Three Aqua managed hotels in Waikiki named to 'best' list for Oahu

10.10.2009 – Aqua Hotels & Resorts, a full-service hotel management company with 16 unique hotels in Hawaii announced that three of its Waikiki properties were named on two “Best” lists by Oyster Hotel Reviews (www.oyster.com), a relatively new online review site, in their recent evaluations of 49 Oahu hotels.

According to www.oyster.com‘s website, “Oyster Hotel Reviews is the first and only company dedicated to publishing objective, in-depth reviews, written by trained journalists, of the world's hotels. Oyster Hotel Reviews adheres to the highest editorial standards; it does not accept compensation or incentives from hotels, and pays for all travel expenses. Hotels cannot pay to be reviewed nor can they influence the reviews in any way.”

Aqua hotels named on the lists include:

Best Value Hotels on Oahu: Aqua Waikiki Pearl, Park Shore Waikiki and Best Western Coconut Waikiki Hotel (an Aqua Boutique Hotel)

Best Hotel Rooms on Oahu: Best Western Coconut Waikiki Hotel (an Aqua Boutique Hotel)

“We are elated by the oyster.com reviews and ratings,” said Elizabeth Churchill, Aqua’s VP Sales & Marketing. “We pride ourselves in having great product, great service and very competitive rates in Waikiki. As for Best Western Coconut Waikiki Hotel (photos below), it’s been a great year for the property and kudos go to general manager Alvida Surpia-Jones and her staff. Besides being rated the #1 hotel on TripAdvisor since May 2009, the hotel just won the prestigious Best Western Chairman’s Award for ranking in the top 5% of all 2400 hotels in the Best Western worldwide system.”

Founded in March 2008 and launched in June 2009, Oyster Hotel Reviews mission is to give a comprehensive preview of the hotels a traveler might choose to stay at, from the beds, to the bathrooms, to the food. Their goal is to guide users to the hotels that will best fit their needs and they do this by extensively photographing every place they visit and by writing in-depth reviews based on their firsthand experiences.

“Travelers are smart and will continue to visit hotel websites as well as online hotel review sites to seek out opinions and insight about hotels that interest them,” added Churchill. “The fact that multiple online websites rate Aqua hotels favorably is a wonderful testament to the quality of the properties and the outstanding work our employees are performing on a daily basis.”
