Royal Hawaiian Hotel Honolulu Waikiki Beach

When I was pregnant, it felt like a broken record hearing that I wouldn’t be able to travel as I did before or that traveling with a baby would be difficult.

I stayed here previously when it was still under its Moroccan-themed demeanor.  The hotel has since undergone a renovation, and I was curious to see if I liked this latest LA facelift.
