Featured Resorts
Hilton Waikiki Beach
The hotel feels geared toward the business traveler with many amenities and no resort fee. Rooms are clean and very modern with their trademark Serenity beds and 42-inch TVs that you can connect to your computer. Rooms either face the mountains (which are very...
Queen Kapiolani Hotel
New management has taken over yet again at this hotel, and they have turned things around and made this into a more contemporary destination. They truly managed to highlight the details of this historical old hotel. The rooms are sort of mid-century, retro, beach...
Waikiki Monarch Hotel
Well, you found it. This is the most distant hotel in Waikiki that’s technically still in Waikiki. The only thing convenient about the location is that when you’re leaving Waikiki, it’s on the corner on your way out. The rooms are unremarkable at best. The staff at...
Hawaiian Princess
First of all, this condo complex is not just a Gem, it’s also a Solid Gold Value. It has the kind of beachfront location that people dream of. It’s built right on top of Papaoneone Beach, a very picturesque and surprisingly lightly used half-mile-long beach. Views...
Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa
This is the kind of place you think of when you imagine a large, very nice Hawaiian resort: tropical feel, open-air lobby and good staff. Even though it’s very large, it radiates the dreamy warmth you’re looking for without seeming too busy. There are two towers...
The Regency on Beachwalk
This older condo building was transformed into a chic, modern, intimate property. Rooms have large showers only, no tubs. Free juice and coffee in the lobby all day. Lots of shopping and restaurants nearby. There is no pool, but you have access to the pool at the...
Ramada Plaza Waikiki
A simple, clean, basic, reliable hotel. If you’re looking for a lanai, you’ll need a room near the end of the hallway from the fifth floor up. Their fitness room is nothing to get excited about, and the pool area feels pretty functional. The hotel is owned by China...
The Breakers
An old-time, two-story low-rise from the mid-'50s that has lots of character. It’s pretty inexpensive and has a fairly tranquil, slow-paced feel. Very little has changed over the years, including the staff. This is more like a stay in old-time Hawai‘i, though they...
Park Shore Waikiki
This hotel is near the park and the shore, so it’s aptly named. The rooms are clean and simple but a tad small and stark. They added smart TVs so you can connect your devices for streaming. Standard rooms have very small lanais that you can only stand on. Rooms on...
Ala Moana Hotel
There are two towers within this hotel—the Kona and the Waikiki towers. The property is just outside Waikiki, next door to the Ala Moana Shopping Center. Business travelers and convention attendees make up much of their customer base. (The convention center is very...
