During your Honolulu vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Puu O Mahuka Heiau
Go around sundown to feel the mana (sacred spirit) of this Hawaiian place. The largest sacrificial temple on Oahu, it's associated with the great Kaopulupulu, who sought peace between Oahu and Kauai. This prescient kahuna predicted that the island would be overrun by strangers from a distant land. In 1794, three of Captain George Vancouver's men of the Daedalus were sacrificed here. In 1819, the year before New England missionaries landed in Hawaii, King Kamehameha II ordered all idols here to be destroyed.A national historic landmark, this 18th-century heiau, known as the "hill of escape," sits on a 5-acre, 300-foot bluff overlooking Waimea Bay and 25 miles of Oahu's wave-lashed North Coast -- all the way to Kaena Point, where the Waianae Range ends in a spirit leap to the other world. The heiau appears as a huge rectangle of rocks twice as big as a football field (170 ft. by 575 ft.), with an altar often covered by the flower and fruit offerings left by native Hawaiians.
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.
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.
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.
Lanikai Bed & Breakfast
This old-time bed-and-breakfast, a kamaaina (native) home that reflects the Hawaii of yesteryear, is now into its second generation. For years, Mahina and Homer Maxey ran this large, comfortable, island-style residence; today, their son, Rick, and his wife, Nini, are the hosts. The recently renovated 1,000-square-foot upstairs apartment, which easily accommodates four, is decorated in old Hawaii bungalow style. There's a king-size bed in the bedroom, a separate den, a large living/dining room, a big bathroom, a kitchenette, and all the modern conveniences -- VCR, cordless phone with answering machine -- plus oversized windows to let you enjoy wonderful views. Or, you can follow the ginger- and ti-lined path to a 540-square-foot honeymooner's delight, with queen-size bed and sitting area with VCR, cordless phone, answering machine, and recently remodeled kitchenette. The units are stocked with breakfast fixings (muffins, juice, fruit, coffee, tea) and all the beach equipment you'll need (towels, mats, chairs, coolers, water jugs). Picture-perfect white-sand Lanikai Beach access is across the street, bus routes are close by, and a 2 1/2-mile biking-walking loop is just outside.
