During your Honolulu vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Navatek I
You've never been on a boat, you don't want to be on a boat, but here you are being dragged aboard one. Why are you boarding this weird-looking vessel? It guarantees that you'll be "seasick-free," that's why. The 140-foot-long Navatek I isn't even called a boat; it's actually a SWATH (Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) vessel. That means the ship's superstructure -- the part you ride on -- rests on twin torpedo-like hulls that cut through the water so you don't bob like a cork and spill your mai tai. It's the smoothest ride on Mamala Bay. In fact, Navatek I is the only dinner cruise ship to receive U.S. Coast Guard certification to travel beyond Diamond Head.Sunset dinner cruises leave Pier 6 (across from the Hawaii Maritime Museum) nightly. If you have your heart set on seeing the city lights, take the royal Sunset Dinner Cruise, which runs from 5:15 to 7:15pm. The best deal is the lunch cruise, with full buffet lunch and a great view of Oahu offshore. During the whale season (roughly Dec-Apr), you get whales to boot. The lunch cruise lasts from 11:30am to 2pm. Both cruises include live Hawaiian music.
National Cemetery of the Pacific
The National Cemetery of the Pacific (also known as "the Punchbowl") is an ash-and-lava tuff cone that exploded about 150,000 years ago -- like Diamond Head, only smaller. Early Hawaiians called it Puowaina, or "hill of sacrifice." The old crater is a burial ground for 35,000 victims of three American wars in Asia and the Pacific: World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. Among the graves, you'll find many unmarked ones with the date December 7, 1941, carved in stone. Some will be unknown forever; others are famous, like that of war correspondent Ernie Pyle, killed by a Japanese sniper in April 1945 on Okinawa; still others buried here are remembered only by family and surviving buddies. The white stone tablets known as the Courts of the Missing bear the names of 28,788 Americans missing in action in World War II.Survivors come here often to reflect on the meaning of war and to remember those, like themselves, who stood in harm's way to win peace a half-century ago. Some fight back tears, remembering lost buddies, lost missions, and the sacrifices of those who died.
Puu Ualakaa State Park
The best sunset view of Honolulu is from a 1,048-foot-high hill named for sweet potatoes. Actually, the poetic Hawaiian name means "rolling sweet potato hill," which is how early planters used gravity to harvest their crop. The panorama is sweeping and majestic. On a clear day -- which is almost always -- you can see from Diamond Head to the Waianae Range, almost the length of Oahu. At night, several scenic overlooks provide romantic spots for young lovers who like to smooch under the stars with the city lights at their feet. It's a top-of-the-world experience -- the view, that is.
Ohana Surf
The Ohana chain makes sure that it has a hotel to suit every budget and every need; this one has recently renovated kitchenettes in every room. The guest rooms, pool deck, and lobby went through extensive renovations in 1997; the rooms were outfitted with new bedspreads, chairs, lampshades, refurbished furniture, new TVs, and new fridges. The Surf is centrally located, across the street from the Kuhio Mall and 2 blocks from the beach; restaurants and nightlife are also within walking distance.
Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa
Sprawling over 20 acres, this is Waikiki's biggest resort -- a minicity unto itself, so big it even has its own post office. You'll find tropical gardens dotted with exotic wildlife (flamingos, peacocks, even tropical penguins!), award-winning restaurants, 100 different shops, a secluded lagoon, two minigolf courses, and a gorgeous stretch of Waikiki Beach. This is a great place to stay with the kids.There's a wide choice of accommodations. Rooms, which range from simply lovely to ultradeluxe, are housed in five towers: Rainbow, Tapa, Diamond Head, Alii, and the new-in-2001 Kalia. Despite the hotel's mega-Vegas size, this division into towers, each with its own restaurants and shopping, cuts down on the chaotic, impersonal feeling that might have resulted. Still, this is the place for a lively, activity-packed vacation; those seeking a more intimate, relaxing experience might want to look elsewhere.All rooms are large and beautifully furnished; if you can afford it, we highly recommend the ones in the Alii Tower, located right on the ocean. Guests in these 348 amenity-laden rooms and suites get the royal treatment, including in-room registration, an exclusive health club and pool, and the full attention of a multilingual staff. Each room has no fewer than three phones (one of which is PC-compatible) and even a mini-TV on the bathroom vanity. But if you choose a room in one of the more affordable towers, you'll still be happy.In 2001, also opening were two new spas: Holistica Hawaii (a wellness center with high-tech body scanning equipment) and Mandara Spa (a state-of-the-art fitness center and traditional body-treatment spa). Also new at the Hilton is Waikiki's first full-service, 24-hour hotel business center, located on the ground floor of the Diamond Head tower. Even if you don't stay here, stop by the Bishop Museum at KaliaFacilities: 18 restaurants (including an award-winning Cantonese/Szechuan eatery; a romantic oceanview dining room serving Pacific Rim cuisine; a sushi bar; and a branch of Benihana); 6 bars; 3 outdoor pools; 2 minigolf courses; fitness center with free classes and high-tech equipment; brand-new superplush Mandara Spa; watersports equipment rentals; year-round children's program (one of Waikiki's best); game room; concierge; activities desk; car-rental desk; Waikiki's only 24-hour business center; huge shopping arcade; salon; room service (6am-midnight); in-room massage; babysitting; same-day laundry service; dry cleaning; concierge-level rooms.
Schrader's Windward Marine Resort
Despite the name, the ambience here is more motel than resort, but Schrader's offers a good alternative for families. The property is nestled in a tranquil, tropical setting on Kaneohe Bay, only a 30-minute drive from Waikiki. The complex is made up of cottage-style motels and a collection of older homes. Cottages contain either a kitchenette with refrigerator and microwave or a full kitchen. There's also a picnic area with barbecue grills. Prices are based on the views; depending on how much you're willing to pay, you can look out over a Kahuluu fishpond, the Koolau Mountains, or Kaneohe Bay. Lots of watersports are available at an additional cost; don't miss the complimentary boat cruise on Wednesday and Saturday. Hot tip: When booking, ask for a unit with a lanai; that way, you'll end up with at least a partial view of the bay.
