Located in the heart of Waikiki, 2 minutes' walk to Waikiki Beach, Halepuna Waikiki is a luxury boutique hotel surrounded by shopping and dining. The property was designed by internationally acclaimed interior design firm, Champalimaud and features works of several Hawaiian artists in partnership with The Honolulu Museum of Art public art program. Liked everything in this hotel! Staff are pleasant and always smiling, our room is super clean, and the swimming pool is super clean as well that the water is so clear! Location is near the waikiki beach and the Royal Hawaiian Center. Also liked that across the hotel is a public access to the beach which is not very crowded. We appreciated that they allow access to the washroom and on the eight floor even after we checked out while we are waiting for our flight. Hotel has luggage storage service too!

Offering an outdoor pool with a sun deck and BBQ facilities, Luana Waikiki Hotel & Suites, is 10 minutes’ walk to Waikiki Beach.

A flat-screen TV is included in each air-conditioned guest room at Luana Waikiki. Select rooms offer a balcony, kitchenette or full kitchen. Pool was good, but more for adults due to depth than for children. Gym was excellent a good range of free weights and treadmills. The room was comfy, we have a kitchen which was handy to cook with. Mike at reception was awesome gave me some good tips about where to visit. Close to Waikiki beach and lots of shops nearby. Also on certain days of the week at 5pm they have Luau show which was free! They also let you loan one of two fish from reception for your child to take care of, our 4 yaar old Loved it! Laundry was down stairs and coin operated. Would definitely come back.

VIVE Hotel Waikiki is a 100% non-smoking boutique hotel, just 4 minutes’ walk from Waikiki Beach, offers free WiFi and modern guest rooms with mountain, city or ocean views. Diamond Head is 3.2 km away. We had a very pleasant experience staying at Vive hotel Waikiki. Our first stay was for a week in a Junior Suite Ocean View room, and we were very happy with it. The size of the room was perfect! It was clean, well-maintained, and the daily housekeeping was excellent. The room had a spacious bathroom and a view of the ocean. The location of the hotel is unbeatable—you can walk to the beach in just 5 minutes, which made our stay incredibly convenient. Additionally, there’s an amazing poke place, Maguro spot, located right across the hotel, which was a delightful bonus. It’s hard to imagine a better combination of location and quality for a stay in Waikiki. The staff were friendly and always ready to assist, which added to the overall comfort of our stay. After spending a few days on the Big Island and Maui, we realized even more how great this hotel was in terms of service and overall experience. We decided to come back for a few extra days and stayed in a standard room this time. The standard room size was perfectly fine—despite some reviews mentioning it being small, we didn’t find that to be the case. It was clean, comfortable, and met all our needs. Overall, this hotel offers an excellent combination of location, cleanliness, and quality service. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Waikiki.
