\"Book<\/a>

Book your stay now at the Moana Surfrider hotel in Honolulu during the Orbitz 48-hour sale and you'll get your 3rd night free plus breakfast!<\/p><\/div>\n

By Susan Johnston<\/em><\/p>\n

While summer sun and heat have given way to cooler fall temperatures across most of the U.S., that carefree summer spirit will live on in Hawaii<\/a> for months to come. Especially in Honoloulu<\/strong>,\u00a0 where you can extend your summer well into fall with an array of festivals, concerts, and other activities.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The biggest event of the season takes place across the Hawaiian islands from Sept. 2-24 with the\u00a0Aloha Festivals.<\/strong><\/a> Oahu<\/strong>\u2019s celebration features a giant block party in Waikiki<\/strong>, complete with food booths and several sound stages with live music. Honolulu also hosts a floral parade on September 25, when marching bands, hula dancers, brightly colored floats, and horse back riders process down Kalakaua Avenue.<\/p>\n

Justin Bieber<\/strong> fans will flock to see “The Bieb” perform for two shows on Oct. 8 and 9 at the Blaisdell Arena<\/strong> . And movie lovers won’t be disapppointed with the Hawaii International Film Fest<\/a> running Oct. 14-24, and screening a variety of films celebrating cultural awareness between Asia, the Pacific and North America.<\/p>\n

If these upcoming events are not your speed, and if Hawaii’s terrific fall weather isn’t enough to lure you (the season is typically warm and dry), then these authentically Hawaiian offerings at some of\u00a0 Honolulu finest hotels should seal the deal:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0The Royal Hawaiian Hotel<\/a><\/strong> has been welcoming guests since 1927 — that’s before Hawaii officially became a state. However, this luxurious and iconic resort underwent a complete renovation just a few years ago, so it offers sleek, modern convenience amidst a magical island setting. It\u2019s also located on 14 acres of beautiful Waikiki beachfront.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0The Westin Moana Surf Rider<\/strong><\/a> has been called the \u201cFirst Lady of Waikiki<\/strong>\u201d and features Waikiki\u2019s first and only beachfront spa. The hotel retains much of its original charm, dating back to 1901, but a recent renovation brought this gem into the modern era. Guests enjoy live Hawaiian music, hula dancing, and tropical drinks daily under Moana\u2019s famous banyan tree.<\/p>\n

Insider tip: <\/strong>Book this hotel now during the Orbitz 48-hour sale<\/a> and you’ll get your 3rd night free plus breakfast! Don’t delay — this awesome sale ends on September 1, 2010, at 12:00 pm (Central).<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Hilton Hawaiian Village<\/a><\/strong> offers an immersive island experience on 22 beachfront acres. With 90 shops and boutiques, 20 restaurants and lounges, and an exciting selection of entertainment, you hardly need to leave the property! The popular singing duo Cecilio & Kapano<\/strong> will perform two benefit concerts at Hilton Hawaiian Village in early September. The two perform separately at the Hilton Hawaiian Village on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach Hote<\/a><\/strong>l has 525 rooms, all featuring lanais with either a full or partial ocean view. It\u2019s a favorite among locals and tourists thanks to its prime location on Waikiki Beach and local entertainment. Duke\u2019s Canoe Club<\/strong> is Waikiki\u2019s most popular beach bar with a lively, yet casual scene.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Outrigger Reef<\/a><\/strong> is home to Kani Ka Pila Grille<\/strong>, which hosts nightly entertainment from 6-9 p.m. Here you can enjoy legendary Hawaiian musicians for the price of a few cocktails and maybe some pupus. The Aloha Friday Luncheon Shows<\/strong> also include some of Hawaii\u2019s most popular musicians, and they\u2019re so popular they\u2019re broadcast live on Hawaiian radio.<\/p>\n
