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.
Waimea Falls Park
If you have only a day to spend on Oahu and want to see an ancient hula, sniff tropical flowers, go kayaking along the shore, hike to archaeological sites and a waterfall, and play the games of ancient Hawaii (such as spear throwing and lawn bowling), there's only one place to be: Waimea Falls Park. This is the perfect family place. You can also explore remnants of the old Hawaiian settlements in a scenic 1,800-acre river valley that's full of tropical blooms; watch authentic demonstrations of the ancient hula by the park's own halau (school); and see cliff divers swan-dive into a pool fed by a 45-foot waterfall. Other activities include riding a mountain bike, paddling a kayak, and walking along the Elehaha River into the jungle.
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.

My review of ResortQuest Waikiki Circle Hotel
John, Portland, OR, 2007-02-24
The rooms might be small and the shower smaller ,for the location and the great people there you cannot beat it
great staff
MARON, 2006-09-30
The breach was across the street. Muilt restaurants within 2 blocks walking distance.
Waikki Circle Hotel was clean. There was also a staff person cleaning some where in the hotel during the day. The staff personnal was must helpful. Any questions we had, was also answered in a polite, professional way. The concierge/agent was so pleasant in fulfilling our tours, dinner cruises, or even ?how do we get where request. Our view of the ocean was breath taking. The room was bit small, but then we did not stay in the room all, was to busy taking in the sites of Waikki.

Close to everything, ie., restaurants of varying prices choices, beaches, shopping and entertainment. The transportation was excellent with trollies, free shuttles, cabs, and many of the activities we paid for they provided free transport to and from each of them. Very enjoyable stay with so many choices of activities and entertainment!
I'll start with a positive- The location was fantastic, right across the street from Waikiki Beach, and the staff were nice. After this it goes down hill. The room was small with two very uncomfortable double beds (no other choices), the shower had black mold in it .
Great Value

The rooms are small, but they have new beds (since last year) and the ocean view is so fantastic! They do need to do something about the bathrooms, though...The size is fine - they're small, but the paint peeling and mildew is really something that needs to be taken care of. Great staff and definitely a fantastic value.
Very family friendly
