My husband and I began our honeymoon by staying at Chaminade Resort and Spa for our first two nights. We got a deal through Hotwire, but we still ended up paying more than twice what we normally would have for any hotel. We did that because we were anticipating staying at a superior quality hotel, but we were sadly mistaken. The room was not very big at all, with only room to walk around the bed. There was a dead spider on the wall of our room, and the curtains looked like someone had either spilled candlewax on them, or something else a little less kosher...The bathroom sink had calcium buildup on the faucet, and the ceiling looked like a poor do-it-yourself repair job--there was a big square cut out of the ceiling which was haphazardly puttied back into place. The walls between rooms were paper-thin, and due to that, we could hear our loud-talking neighbors past the time we wanted to go to bed and earlier than we wanted to wake up.
Despite the poor quality of our room, the staff was very friendly and prompt. We ate dinner there the first night, and the meal was delicious. We ordered room service breakfast that was delivered promptly. We did call to complain about our neighbors and within minutes there was a staff member knocking on their door to ask them to quiet down.
Overall, we would not recommend Chaminade, nor will we stay here again--especially not for that price. I would not rate this as a 4-star hotel, especially since we stayed at 3-star hotels that were far superior than this one.
