Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort

Teppanyaki chefs flip food and build onion volcanoes right at your table, so dinner is also the show.

Two walls out into the ocean make a calm swimming enclosure in the middle of the beach, so small kids can paddle away from the surf.

An oceanarium in the lobby, so kids get fish to watch every time you walk in or out.

Five pools with slides and a shallow keiki pool, all beside the beach, so small swimmers have their own spot.

Elephants and komodo dragons, with a keiki zoo inside for the smallest kids.

Compact tanks of giant clams, frogfish and reef life, so a short attention span still makes it to the end.
