Used my SPG free nights for 3 night stay and we loved the location. Walk out to the beach, close to all the shops, and a very clean room. Unfortunately, the good ends there. There was a ton of fees and parking is not complimentary' $40USD/day, self park or valet are the same price. Valet is like russian roulette; you can end up being stuck in the round about when there's an event. If you have plans and need your car to get out on time, good luck! I did not understand the resort fee when you practically have to pay for EVERYTHING that you would expect in a resort to provide for when you already paid the fee; for example, $40USD/day to reserve a beach chairs. I should note beach towels are provided for the $37USD/day resort fee but for that kind of fee, I can get a set of really soft cotton beach towels and even have them dry cleaned. Also, if you're using your SPG free nights, don't expect to have the "Luxury Collection" treatment. My wife and I definitely did not, while I lined up to see everyone check-in early, we were the only couple that did not have their room ready up until 3 PM; I tried checking in at 1 PM, at 2 PM, at 2:30 PM. I really wonder if all the SPG rooms are cleaned last. The walls are paper thin too, you can hear your neighbors loud and clear. No complimentary rope or slippers for your stay. I wonder how The Royal Hawaiian became a Luxury Collection because I really failed to see or experience any of it. I really wish I had used my SPG free nights somewhere else.
