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.
U.S. Army Schofield Barracks
James Jones, author of From Here to Eternity, called Schofield Barracks "the most beautiful army post the U.S. has or ever had." The Honolulu Star Bulletin called it a country club. More than a million soldiers called Schofield Barracks home. With its broad, palm-lined boulevards and Art-Deco buildings, this old army cavalry post is still the largest operated by the U.S. Army outside the continental United States. And it's still one of the best places to be a soldier.The history of Schofield Barracks and the 25th Infantry Division is told in the small Tropic Lightning Museum,. Displays range from a 1917 bunker exhibit to a replica of Vietnam's infamous Cu Chi tunnels.
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.
New Otani Kaimana Beach Hotel
This is one of Waikiki's best-kept secrets: a boutique hotel nestled right on a lovely stretch of beach at the foot of Diamond Head, with Kapiolani Park just across the street. Robert Louis Stevenson's description of Sans Souci, the beach fronting the hotel, still holds true: "If anyone desires lovely scenery, pure air, clear sea water, good food, and heavenly sunsets, I recommend him cordially to the Sans Souci." The Waikiki-side guest rooms are tiny but tastefully decorated in pale pastels; they open onto large lanais with ocean and park views. A good budget buy is the park-view studio with kitchen, for just $160 to $180. You can stock up with provisions from the on-site Mini-Mart, open until 11pm.Since the hotel overlooks Kapiolani Park, guests have easy access to activities such as golf, tennis, jogging, and bicycling; kayaking, and snorkeling are available at the beach. The hotel also arranges for visitors to climb to the top of Diamond Head. The airy lobby opens onto the alfresco Hau Tree Lanai restaurant, a delightfully romantic beachfront restaurant, set under the same banyan tree that sheltered Robert Louis Stevenson a century ago. The Miyako Restaurant offers gourmet Japanese dining with an ocean view. The beachfront Sunset Lanai Lounge is great for cocktails and has live Hawaii music at lunch on Friday.Facilities: 2 restaurants; beachfront bar; fitness room; watersports equipment rentals; concierge; activity desk; small shopping arcade; salon; limited room service (7am-8:45pm); in-room massage; babysitting; coin-op washer/dryers; laundry service; dry cleaning.
Magnolia at Waikiki
Hidden in the high-rise jungle of Waikiki is this two-story oasis of Waikiki of yesteryear. You enter through a wooden gate into a garden with a burbling fountain to one- and two-bedroom units (ask for number 2 -- our favorite) with all the comforts of home: huge living area with TV/VCR, CD, soft, comfy furniture, complete kitchen, separate dining area, firm beds and outside sitting areas. Lots of extras: free local phone calls, free newspaper, free parking (a rarity in Waikiki), a big Jacuzzi tub and on-site laundry faculties. The hotel is located just a short walk from the beach and from Kapiolani Park, with easy access in and out of Waikiki. This is more than just an accommodation in Waikiki, it is a home away from home.
Ilima Hotel
The Teruya brothers, owners of Hawaii's Times Supermarket, wanted to offer comfortable accommodations that Hawaii residents could afford, and they've succeeded. One of Hawaii's small, well-located condo-style hotels, the 17-story, pale pink Ilima (named for the native orange flower used in royal leis) offers value for your money. Rooms are huge, the location (near the International Market Place and the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center, 2 blocks to Waikiki Beach) is great, and prices are low. A tasteful koa-wood lobby lined with works by Hawaiian artists greets you upon arrival. Perks include free local phone calls (a nice plus), and a full kitchen in every unit; in addition, all the couches fold out into beds, making this a particularly good deal for families. Some of the beds are waveless waterbeds. Truly nice people staff the front desk, ready to help you enjoy your vacation. The only drawback: no ocean views.
