OAHU HOTELS

Oahu Hotels - Honolulu/Waikiki

If you stay in Waikiki you should know that this area is a classic vacation resort offering a promenade with plenty of restaurants, bars, and shopping. The area around Kalakaua Ave, Waikiki’s artery, is pretty busy and noisy, a reason why I suggest to either stay off the main strip or go for a ocean front room north of Kuhio Beach Park. But still it is going to be noisy … Hotel rates are ridiculously high in Waikiki and it’s worth to shop around before you make your reservation. Third parties like travelzoo.com, hotwire.com, dealbase.com, etc or the hotels directly should have some special offers available not only shortterm but also far in advance. A benchmark for a 3-star hotel located in the side or parallel streets of Kalakaua Ave is around $80-100 per night and $130 – 200 for a 4-star hotel. As soon you consider an ocean front room you will end up with $250 or more. BTW – if you do not plan to explore the island but just stay in Waikiki/ Honolulu you do not need a rental car at all.

Aqua Bamboo and Spa, 2425 Kuhio Ave, Honolulu, Oahu
http://www.aquaresorts.com/oahu/bamboo-spa/home/
$75 – 150 per night/room. This hotel is a beautiful small oasis is bustley Waikiki. Next to the fact that the Aqua Bamboo has only 80 rooms (some with a kitchenette), the lush garden with the small but adequate pool gives you a nice time out from the crowds back along the beach and Kalakaua Ave. Furthermore, it is not breaking your bank, similar to all Aqua resorts on Hawai’i. The hotel is close enough to everything and just two blocks away from the beach, entertainment, and shopping. Since the rate comes without breakfast (coffee is complimentary) I recommend getting your breakfast at either an ABC Store or at the Food Pantry, a tiny supermarket at Kuhio Ave. 
Four Paddle Condos, 2140 Kuhio Ave, Honolulu, Oahu
http://www.fourpaddle.com
$145 – 165 nightly, dependend on the unit (2-4 people). Instead of staying in a hotel, Waikiki also offers plenty of condos you can rent instead. One of them is the Four Paddle Condos an apartment community with 250 units centrally located in Waikiki. On the property you will find a pool and some BBQ facilities. The reservations are usually handled over vrbo.com since each condo is privately owned or over http://www.captaincookresorts.com a vacation rental company in Waikiki.
The Kahala Hotel and Resort, 5000 Kahala Avenue, Honolulu, Oahu
http://www.kahalaresort.com/
$450 – 800 per night/room. Although still in Waikiki, the Kahala is located secluded and off the trouble close to Diamond Head with pretty and comfortable rooms. In particular, the beach front rooms or the ones at the Dolphin lagoon are the nicest. The hotel belongs to the ‘Leading Hotels in the World’ and is newly refurbished. The quite pricey rates come with a shuttle to Ala Moana Shopping Center and Waikiki, surf and stand up paddle lessons, newspapers, water, and bikes.

Oahu Hotels - Kailua

If you want to escape Waikiki’s hustle and bustle you might want to take a closer look into Kailua located next to long sandy beaches. In contrary to Waikiki you won’t find any resorts or hotels here but many great B&B’s trying to make your stay as enjoyable and comfortable as possible.

Manu Mele B&B, 153 Kailuana Place, Kailua
http://www.manumele.net/
$100 – 120 per night/room. Wonderful small two rooms B&B only steps away from Castles Beach in the northern part of Kailua. Carol the innkeeper is lovely and welcomes you with a basket of breakfast items and pampers you from time to time with freshly baked muffins. The rooms come with a kitchenette and guests are welcome to use the pool or relax in the beautiful garden.
Lanikai Rentals, 1277 Mokulua Drive, Kailua
http://www.lanikaibeachrentals.com
Studios, condos, bungalows from $150 -225 per day/unit. Beach homes from $695/ day. This company, a merger of different private owners, has a great reputation amongst Oahu vacationers and offers different properties for 2 – 12 people in Kailua and Lanikai. All units are clean and well equipped and the owners try to make your stay as comfy as possible.

Oahu Hotels - North Shore

Away from it all at the North Shore you will find the most beautiful beaches having the choice between vacation rentals and B&Bs or the huge Turtle Bay Resort. The latter I won’t recommend since it is pricey and not as attractive as you might think. Nevertheless, you should pay the grounds a visit, in particular its beach.

Turtle Bay Condos, 57-091 Kamehameha Highway, Kahuku, Oahu
$95 – 200 per night/ unit. In front of Turtle Bay Resort (coming from Kamehameha HWY) you will find a community of several condos that are less expensive than the resort but offer similar amenities including discounted golf rates. Most condos are owned privately and the best deals are made over vrbo.com. Alternatively you can book them over the company http://www.turtlebaycondos.com that has slightly higher rates than the owners’.
Hale Koolau Rentals, 54-215 Kamehameha Highway, Hauula, Oahu
http://www.halekoolau.com/
$90 – 400 per night depending on the unit. Beautiful vacation rentals along Oahu’s North Shore for 1-16 people, depending on the property. The apartments or homes are located close to fantastic beaches and are within a short distance to great restaurants and supermarkets. Don’t expect a Four Seasons but an affordable, nice and clean accommodation on the beach!
Keiki Beach Bungalows, Sunset Beach, North Shore, Oahu
http://keikibeach.com
From $185 – 230 per night/unit. This property incorporates 5 beachfront bungalows and 5 garden bungalows that are available nightly, weekly or monthly. The bungalows are lovely decorated and offer space for 2-8 people with 1 or 2 bedrooms per unit. They are located on Sunset Beach at the North Shore between Shark’s Cove and Waimea Beach with beautiful ocean and sunset or garden views. Next to full-equipped kitchens each unit has a hammock and BBQ and picnic facilities as well. Prepare yourself for a laidback atmosphere and a very relaxed innkeeper ;-) BTW – during winter the accommodation is packed with surfers, just in case this would bother you.
