During your Honolulu vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Kapiolani Park
In 1877, King David Kalakaua gave 130 acres of land to the people of Hawaii and named it after his beloved wife, Queen Kapiolani. This truly royal park has something for just about everyone: tennis courts, soccer and rugby fields, archery, picnic areas, wide-open spaces for kite flying and Frisbee throwing, and a jogging path with aerobic exercise stations. On Sundays in the summer, the Royal Hawaiian Band plays in the bandstand, just as they did during Kalakaua's reign. The Waikiki Shell, located in the park, is host to a variety of musical events, from old Hawaiian songs to rock and roll.
Hoomaluhia Botanical Gardens
This 400-acre botanical garden at the foot of the steepled Koolau Mountains is the perfect place for a picnic. Its name means "a peaceful refuge" and that's exactly what the Army Corps of Engineers created when they installed a flood-control project here, which resulted in a 32-acre freshwater lake and garden. Just unfold a beach mat, lie back, and watch the clouds race across the rippled cliffs of the majestic Koolau Range. This is one of the few public places on Oahu that provides a close-up view of the steepled cliffs. The park has hiking trails and -- best of all -- the island's only free inland campground. If you like hiking and nature, plan to spend at least a half a day here.
Waikiki Aquarium
Do not miss this! Half of Hawaii is its underwater world; plan to spend at least 2 hours discovering it. Behold the chambered nautilus, nature's submarine and inspiration for Jules Verne's 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. You may see this tropical spiral-shelled cephalopod mollusk -- the only living one born in captivity -- any day of the week here. Its natural habitat is the deep waters of Micronesia, but aquarium director Bruce Carlson not only succeeded in trapping the pearly shell in 1,500 feet of water (by dangling chunks of raw tuna), but also managed to breed this ancient relative of the octopus. There are also plenty of other fish in this small but first-class aquarium, located on a live coral reef. The Hawaiian reef habitat features sharks, eels, a touch tank, and habitats for the endangered Hawaiian monk seal and green sea turtle. Recently added: a rotating biodiversity exhibit and interactive displays focusing on corals and coral reefs.
Royal Grove Hotel
This is a great bargain for frugal travelers. You can't miss the Royal Grove -- it's bright pink. Among Waikiki's canyons of corporate-owned high-rises, it's also a rarity in another way: The Royal Grove is a small, family-owned hotel. What you get here is old-fashioned aloha in cozy accommodations along the lines of Motel 6 -- basic and clean. For years, Frommer's readers have written about the aloha spirit of the Fong family; they love the potluck dinners and get-togethers the Fongs have organized so their guests can get to know one another. And you can't do better for the price -- this has to be the bargain of Waikiki. For $44.50 (about the same price a couple would pay to stay in a private room at the hostel in Waikiki), you get a clean room in the older Mauka Wing, with a double bed or two twins, plus a kitchenette with refrigerator and stove. We suggest that you spend a few dollars more and go for an air-conditioned room ($60) to help drown out the street noise. Even the most expensive unit, a one-bedroom suite with three beds, a kitchenette, and a lanai, at $75, is half the price of similar accommodations elsewhere. At these rates, you won't mind that maid service is only twice a week.The hotel is built around a courtyard pool, and the beach is just a 3-minute walk away. All of Waikiki's attractions are within walking distance. Hot tip: Book 7 nights or more from April to November, and get a discount on the already low rates.
Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Hotel
This hotel is prized for its excellent location and decent rates. Portraits of the hotel's namesake, Princess Kaiulani, heir to the throne who died in 1899 at the age of 23, fill the large open-air lobby. Her regal, youthful face looks out on the site that was once her royal estate. A huge swimming pool sits behind a row of restaurants and shops facing Kalakaua Ave. The open-air lobby connects the three buildings of the Princess Kuiulani: the 11-story original hotel that opened in 1955, the 11-story Kaiulani wing, and the 29-story Ainahau tower, the latter two opened in 1960. The rooms, which are perfectly fine if unremarkable, have been recently renovated, and double-insulated doors with soundproofing have been added. (We wish every hotel in noisy Waikiki had this feature. The soundproofing really works: You can't hear the blaring sirens or the sound of garbage cans being emptied at 3am.) The hotel's dinner and cocktail show "Creation -- A Polynesian Odyssey" is a fun, but touristy, musical-theatrical excursion through the South Pacific. We wouldn't pay the rack rates, but it's often possible to get a good package deal here.Facilities: 4 restaurants (Mandarin, Japanese, poolside garden, international food court); 4 bars; outdoor pool; fitness room across the street at sister hotel; Jacuzzi; good children's program; concierge; activity desk; room service; massage; babysitting; coin-op washer/dryers; laundry/dry cleaning.
Marine Surf Waikiki Hotel
Travelers on a budget will like this hotel. Located in the heart of Waikiki, this high-rise is part privately owned condo units and part spacious studio apartments -- only the studios are available for rent. Each one has a complete kitchen, two extra-long double beds, and a small lanai. The price difference depends on the view. Hot tip: The best views are from floors 17 to 22. Located just a half-block from Kuhio Mall and the International Market Place, the hotel is less than 2 blocks from the beach.
