During your Honolulu vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Queen Emma Summer Palace
Hanaiakamalama, the name of the country estate of Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma, was once in the secluded uplands of Nuuanu Valley. These days, it's adjacent to a six-lane highway full of speeding cars that sound remarkably like surf as they zip by. This simple, seven-room New England-style house, built in 1848 and restored by the Daughters of Hawaii, is worth about an hour of your time to see the interesting blend of Victorian furniture and hallmarks of Hawaiian royalty, including feather cloaks and kahili, the feathered standards that mark the presence of alii (royalty). Other royal treasures include a canoe-shaped cradle for Queen Emma's baby, Prince Albert, who died at the age of 4. (Kauai's ultra-ritzy Princeville Resort is named for the little prince.)
Aliiolani Hale
Don't be surprised if this place looks familiar; you probably saw it on Magnum, P.I. This gingerbread Italianate building, designed by Australian Thomas Rowe in Renaissance revival style, was built in 1874 and was originally intended to be a palace. Instead, Aliiolani Hale ("chief unto heavens") became the Supreme Court and Parliament government office building. Inside, there's a Judiciary History Center, which features a multimedia presentation, a restored historic courtroom, and exhibits tracing Hawaii's transition from precontact Hawaiian law to Western law. Allow an hour at most to see it.
Kukaniloko Birthing Stones
This is the most sacred site in central Oahu. Two rows of 18 lava rocks once flanked a central birthing stone, where women of ancient Hawaii gave birth to potential alii (royalty). The rocks, according to Hawaiian belief, held the power to ease the labor pains of childbirth. Birth rituals involved 48 chiefs who pounded drums to announce the arrival of newborns likely to become chiefs. Children born here were taken to the now-destroyed Holonopahu Heiau in the pineapple field, where chiefs ceremoniously cut the umbilical cord.Used by Oahu's alii for generations of births, the pohaku (rocks), many in bowl-like shapes, now lie strewn in a grove of trees that stands in a pineapple field here. Some think the site also may have served ancient astronomers -- like a Hawaiian Stonehenge. Petroglyphs of human forms and circles appear on some of the stones. The Wahiawa Hawaiian Civic Club recently erected two interpretive signs, one explaining why this was chosen as a birth site and the other telling how the stones were used to aid in the birth process.
Ohana Reef Towers
This is a great deal for families: Four of you can easily stay here for $139, with your own kitchenette to help keep dining costs down. The Reef is one of Outrigger's larger hotels, consisting of two 13-story towers. The recently renovated rooms are larger than those at some nearby Outriggers, and come with a few more amenities than those in the chain's lower-priced hotels. The lanais, however, are very small. The huge lobby is filled with shops. The Polynesian Showroom features some of Hawaii's top entertainers. You can order room service from the Waikiki Broiler.Facilities: 4 restaurants (deli, casual family restaurant, pasta/seafood, and poolside snacks); 3 bars; the Polynesian Showroom, featuring some of Hawaii's top entertainers; outdoor pool; children's program; activity desk; shopping arcade; salon; room service (7am-9pm); babysitting; laundry service.
Turtle Bay Resort
This property has recently undergone a management change (for years it was a Hilton) and just completed a $35 million massive renovation. When the resort was built 30 years ago, there was hope that it would become a "gaming operation" (i.e. Las Vegas-type gambling), but that never materialized. With the renovations, the lobby is open and airy with floor to ceiling windows to the dramatic ocean shoreline view. The resort is spectacular: an hour's drive from Waikiki, but eons away in its country feeling. Sitting on 808 acres, this place is loaded with activities and 5 miles of shoreline with secluded white-sand coves. It's located on Kalaeokaunu Point ("point of the altar"), where ancient Hawaiians built a small altar to the fish gods. The altar's remains are now at the Bishop Museum, but it's easy to see why the Hawaiians considered this holy ground.All the rooms have ocean views and balconies. The renovated rooms feature marble floors and counter tops in the bathroom, good reading lamps over the beds and comfy bedding. The 42 separate beach cottages have been renovated (hardwood floors, poster beds with feather comforters, even a personalized butler) and have their own check-in and private concierge (like a hotel within a hotel).The biggest change is the new Zen-like spa with six treatment rooms, a meditation waiting area, an outdoor workout area, plus complete fitness center and a private elevator to the rooms on the second floor, reserved for guests getting spa treatments.Facilities: 4 restaurants (from a terrific Sun brunch to casual local cuisine); 2 bars (live entertainment Thurs-Sat at the Bay Club Lounge, plus a poolside bar for sunset cocktails); 2 outdoor heated pools (with 55-ft. water slide); 36 holes of golf; 10 Plexipave tennis courts; spa with complete fitness center; 3 Jacuzzis; watersports equipment rentals; concierge; activity desk; business center; shopping arcade; salon; room service; babysitting; coin-op washer/dryers; laundry service; dry cleaning.
Kahala Mandarin Oriental Hawaii
Since 1964, when Conrad Hilton first opened it as a place to relax far from the crowds of Waikiki, the Kahala has always been rated one of Hawaii's premier hotels. A veritable who's who of celebrities has stayed here, including nearly every president since Richard Nixon. This grande dame of hotels has now reached a new level. It retains the traditional feeling of an earlier time in Hawaii, but accents it with exotic Asian touches. The result is a resort hotel for the 21st century coupled with the grace and elegance of a softer, gentler time. And the location offers a similarly wonderful compromise. Situated in one of Oahu's most prestigious residential areas, the Kahala offers the peace and serenity of a neighbor-island vacation, but with the conveniences of Waikiki just a 10-minute drive away. The lush, tropical grounds include an 800-foot crescent-shaped beach, and a 26,000-square-foot lagoon (home to two bottle-nosed dolphins, sea turtles, and tropical fish).All guest rooms feature 19th-century mahogany reproductions, teak parquet floors with hand-loomed Tibetan rugs, overstuffed chairs, canopy beds covered with soft throw pillows, and works by local artists adorning the grass-cloth-covered walls. Views from the floor-to-ceiling sliding-glass doors are of the ocean, Diamond Head, and Koko Head. In-room amenities include two-line phones, 27-inch TVs, large bathrooms with vintage fixtures, freestanding glass showers, large soaking tubs, "his" and "her" dressing areas, plush bathrobes and slippers, and illuminated makeup mirrors.Other extras that make this property outstanding: a Hawaiian cultural program, shuttle service to Waikiki and major shopping centers, free scuba lessons in the pool, and daily dolphin-education talks by a trainer from Sea Life Park.Facilities: 4 restaurants (including the award-winning Hoku's); bar; large outdoor pool; nearby golf course, tennis courts, great fitness center with steam rooms, Jacuzzis, and dry sauna; watersports equipment rentals; bike rental; children's program; game room; concierge; activity desk; car-rental desk; multilingual business center; shopping arcade; salon; 24-hour room service; in-room massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning.
