Ala Wai Municipal Golf Course
The Guinness Book of World Records lists this as the busiest golf course in the world; some 500 rounds a day are played on this 18-hole municipal course within walking distance of Waikiki's hotels. For years, we've held off recommending this par 70, 6,020-yard course because it was so busy (tee times taken by local retirees), but a recent scandal, involving telephone company employees tapping into the tee time reservation system to get tee times for themselves and their friends, has shaken up the old system, and visitors now have a better chance of playing here. It still is a challenge to get a tee time, and the computerized tee reservations system for all of Oahu's municipal courses will only allow you to book 3 days in advance, but keep trying. Ala Wai basically is a flat layout, bordered by the Ala Wai Canal on one side and the Manoa-Palolo Stream on the other. It's less windy than most Oahu courses, but pay attention to the 372-yard, par-4, first hole which demands a straight and long shot to the very tiny green. If you miss, you can make it up on the 478-yard, par-5 10th hole -- the green is reachable in two, so with a two-putt, a birdie is within reach.
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.
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.
Ohana Islander Waikiki
If you're looking for a moderately priced hotel in the midst of Waikiki, here's your place. In 1997, the Outrigger chain completely gutted the old Pleasant Holiday Isle Hotel, and then dropped more than $7 million for renovations to bring the property up to Outrigger standards. In 2003, the chain re-branded the property from an Outrigger to the more moderately priced "Ohana" brand. The location on Lewers and Kalakaua is fabulous: just across the street from the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, and 1 block to the beach. An escalator takes you up to the glass-encased lobby, with the pool at one end and shops and a Starbuck's Cafe at the other. The rooms, which are all interconnected, range in size from 240 to 342 square feet and have been refurbished in Berber carpets, with Italian tile entryways, blond island-style furniture, and matching wallpaper and artwork by Hawaiian artists. All rooms have small semicircular balconies and either a king or two double beds.
Hyatt Regency Waikiki
This is one of Waikiki's biggest hotels, a $100 million project sporting two 40-story towers and covering nearly an entire city block, just across the street from the Diamond Head end of Waikiki Beach. Some may love the location, but others will find this behemoth too big and impersonal -- you can get lost just trying to find the registration desk. The second-floor lobby is huge, decorated in koa and wrapped around an atrium that rises 40 floors from the ground level. It's filled with the squawks of parrots, tumbling waterfalls, and traffic noise from busy Kalakaua Avenue outside.The guest rooms are spacious and luxuriously furnished. But please, when room rates start at $265 a night, do they have to charge you an extra $3.25 per package of coffee for the "free coffeemaker" in your room? (Not only that, but if you want to empty your minibar to use it as a fridge, the cost is $7!) The deluxe oceanview rooms overlooking Waikiki Beach are fabulous but can be noisy (traffic on Kalakaua is constant). For a few dollars more (well, actually more than a few dollars), you can upgrade to the Regency Club floors, where the rooms are nicer (and the coffee is free); you'll also be entitled to an expedited check-in and entry to a private rooftop sun deck and Jacuzzi and the Regency Club, which has concierge service all day and serves complimentary continental breakfast and afternoon pupu.Just opened in April 2001 is the 10,000-square-foot, two-story luxury Na Ho'ola Spa, with all the massage services, body treatments, and facials you can imagine.Facilities: 7 restaurants (including an indoor/outdoor grill overlooking the ocean; a Japanese restaurant; a steak-and-seafood house; and Ciao Mein, for creative family style Chinese and Italian cuisine; 4 bars (including a very elegant poolside bar); outdoor pool with a view of Waikiki; fitness room; brand-new elegant spa; Jacuzzi; children's program (Fri-Sat year-round and daily in summer); game room; concierge; activity desk; car-rental desk; business center; large shopping arcade; salon; room service (6am-11pm); in-room massage; babysitting; coin-op washer/dryers; same-day laundry service and dry cleaning; concierge-level rooms.
Ohana Waikiki Village
Deep in the heart of Ohana country (they seem to own Lewers St.) is another recommendable link in the chain. The Ohana Waikiki Village is less than 2 blocks from the beach and in the midst of Waikiki's restaurant, shopping, and nightlife scene. The Village is considered a moderate Ohana hotel: The rooms are small but cozy and recently received new bedspreads, curtains, carpet, and a fresh paint job. There are no in-room coffeemakers, but you can get your morning cup at the breakfast-only coffee shop. The pool sits in the middle of the open-air lobby, which makes for interesting people-watching as you work on your tan. There's an Internet connection in the lobby that will hook you up for $1 for 7 minutes. Families of three might consider the studio kitchenettes, as the hotel rooms sleep only two. Helpful hint: If you prefer a king bed, request one when reserving your room, as the hotel has a limited number of them.
