Ford Island Pet-friendly Vacations

This hotel is in a wonderful location, has beautiful gardens, nice staff, is a historic hotel, has a great Mai Tai Bar & has a beautiful beach. That said, “ historic” one might , at times, feel is synonymous with run down. This IS NOT an updated property. When it rains, the lobby floods. The paint on the walls looks like it is hiding decades of decay. To say the carpets are worn, is kind. Coffee is sold in the lobby starting at 6 AM & it stops at noon. The women at this stall work fast & are kind, & the coffee is good but the wait at 6:45 AM is at least 20 minutes… it’s even worse later! And the pool / beach situation is like fight club ( or the Jersey Shore on Fourth of July Weekend!!). Good luck finding a chair, a place in the sand, or a spot in the pool! The rocking chairs in the lobby are a highlight, so are the free pink water bottles ( you’ll need them to get free water). A fun experience but for the price, no way would I stay here again.

Island Colony was a great place to stay overall. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with cookware, toiletries, towels, and even beach chairs and a backpack cooler. I loved the patio view and enjoyed relaxing out there. The pool, hot tub and sauna were clean and relaxing, and security felt solid. The only downside was parking -- the kiosk instructions are confusing, and you have to use separate elevators for the garage and rooms. Definitely ask staff for help the first time. I'd stay again, I truly enjoyed the room and its amenities. Very convenient location. Parking isn't the owners fault -- just something to be aware of. Parking is definitely cheaper if you go for the 5 days. $235/5 days vs $47/nightly. 4/5 Wonderful Room

The location was perfect - just one block from the beach with stunning views of the park, beach, skyline and sunsets. The property was super clean, and the newly renovated rooms are nicely laid out and have everything needed. The hotel location is just off the strip, so quieter and perhaps a little less busy. The staff was very friendly and worked to make our stay exceptional. Loved the extra water they brought every day and the evening turn-down service. Overall, I would highly recommend this property.

Property was really clean and offered great amenities! Would stay here again!

I stayed at this hotel recently and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the room had a really nice ocean view, which was definitely the highlight of the stay. However, there are a few things that need attention. The room itself could use some updates, especially the electrical plugs, which felt outdated and inconvenient. The guard rails around the property also looked worn and could use a fresh coat of paint. One issue that stood out was water leaking in front of our door, which made the area feel unsafe and poorly maintained. On top of that, parking is quite expensive at $48 per night, which adds up quickly. Overall, the view was great, but the maintenance and extra costs took away from the experience.
