I´m going to Hawaii in January 2009 and was wondering if it´s good to go at that time? Or should I go some other time? This is our (my and my wifes) dream tripp so we want it to be perfect.

We have our trip in November. We are staying at 2470 Kalakaua. Is there a bus route from there to the Convention Center? I am permanent wheelchair.

going to waikiki staying at the aqua palms, herd go oahu card is a good deal, has anyone out there used the go card? if so, will most attractions pick you up at the hotel??
thanks

I am travelling to Oahu in late March and will be staying at the Aqua Waikiki Wave hotel and I was wondering if anyone has stayed there and could tell me about it?
I was also wondering if it is better to book activities on-line or wait to get there to do so??

Thanks!

What's the cost for a local bus ride and do you have to have exact change? Whats the cost for a Waikiki to the airport ride?

I am getting married in Waikiki. I have 20 people in my group. We would like to treat our guests to a dinner in the Waikiki area immediately after the wedding ceremony. Nothing fancy but certainly not too cheap. Any suggestions?

Hi I need some advice! I Can get the either Aqua Bamboo Hotel or Ohana Waikiki Islander. Can anyone recommend which one would be better out of the two? Has anyone stayed at either hotel and can give feedback let me know. Thank you

What time are the fireworks on Fri nite?

I have a question for people who are in Hawaii now:)

We are going on a cruise around the islands on March 19th and when I look on weather forecast it says rain every day for every island:((!

Is it really true, is it raining every day now?

Thanks!

We're traveling to Oahu for a little 5 days getaway next month (just hubby and I- no kids)-- hotel choices are Resort Quest Waikiki Beach, Waikiki Beach Marriott (perhaps Hyatt Regency Waikiki, Sheraton Moana Surfrider).

ALSO-- anyone hear anything positive about the New Otani? It sounds like the New Otani is on a great stretch of beach (Sans Souci).

Overall, we'd prefer to be toward the east (Diamond Head area)-- away from the hustle/bustle (been there and done that 20 years ago).

Will spend time on beach, in water, hike Diamond Head, visit USS AZ.

Our trip is in conjunction with a 2 hour meeting hubby has one afternoon. Not bad to spend 5 days in a WARM locale for a 2 hour work function!

We like comfy acommodations, but don't necessarily require "posh!"

Thanks for any input~

Has anyone ever stayed here?
It's the hotel near the Kuhio Beach and Diamond Head, I was wondering how good it is in terms of location, rooms, quietness, etc?

Thanks!

Whats the best place to rent a big car to drive from the airport and then drop off the car in Waikiki near Lewers st. I will need a car big enough for 5 + all the luggage.


thanks,

Hi

I am trying to find a hotel that is close to the beach, shops and nightclubs that is cheap.
We would like somewhere with a pool, and lots of young people to meet up & have a drink with - aimed at a younger crowd rather than families & oldies looking for a quiet holiday.
We don't mind not staying in a 5 star resort, and have thought about staying at the hostel, but aren't sure we want to share bathrooms etc.
I have looked at Royal Grove & The Ambassador - but not sure if they're what we're after
Any advice would be great!
we're going early April for 2 weeks.

thanks heaps!!!

What are the warmest (with least rainfall) months for Waikiki/Oahu travel? I know that every month is warm and beautiful, but I'd like to participate in a number of water sports, so slightly warmer temps would be nice. 70 - 74 degrees is a little too cool for me. I'd prefer 75 - 80 degrees. I'd also like to avoid the rainy season & pack in as much sun as possible. I've looked online, but all I can find are sites with forcaster gobbledegoop. Can anyone teach me a bit about Oahu weather? Much appreciated!

I will be in Honolulu next week for six days. I would like to run during my stay in Honolulu. Are there any courses good for running in Waikikik, where is safe early in the morning or after dark? I am thinking to run 10 km. I will stay at Sheraton Kaiulani.

Thank you for your advice.

I see on the Hilton Hawaiian Village website that there is entertainment on Friday's refered to as "Aloha Friday King's Jubilee & Fireworks" The entertainment includes "Village Guards Precision Rifle Drill Team, Main Show at the Super Pool, and Fireworks Display." Is there a fee for this, are tickets requried? Basically, what's the deal, and best area to view the entertainment? Do we need to get there early, etc.? Any information appreciated. Thanks for sharing what you know about these Friday evening events.

Also, I read there might be construction going on at the hotel, is that affecting the show? Thanks.

Hello. Most of the cruises are 4 hrs or less that circle part of the island.

Anyone know about a longer cruise that circles the island?

Does it rain a lot in May in Waikiki?

Is it cold enough to wear a sweater in the evening in Waikiki?

We are intending to stay in Waikiki for about 2 weeks and thought a condo might be a good idea. Does anybody have any recommendations? We will only need a one bedroom.

Unable to use Entertainment Book, travelling solo. Any ideas on how to eat very-very-very cheaply during a 9 day stay?

When is it expected to reach Waikiki?

Also, did a rain a bunch this week?

Travelling alone. Where do I put my beach items if I want to go for a walk on the beach? Will have a small backpack but didn't want to tote it while in the water...

Hey guys, my family and I are having a holiday in waikiki in September and I have been reading about all the different hotels on waikiki beach and it's to choose one as there are just so many that all seem to be offering the same. We're looking for a hotel in the center of waikiki, that accomadates for families, could you please suggest any impressive hotels at a fair price that you have experienced. Thanks so much.

Hello,

Does any one know why 6/17(Sat) & 6/18(Sun) doesn't have the free sunset beach movie? I though every weekend it should have free beach movie.

many thanks,

nancy
ps. I plan to visit Honolulu during the week on 6/17.

We are doing a world trip around this time next year and we would like to spend a week in Waikiki before travelling back to Oz, perhaps also a week on Maui. Does anybody ahe any tips on some reasonably priced accommodation, any hotels that are anywhere near the beach seem to be fairly expensive especially if you are on your last leg of a 3 month hol. Thanks for any help.

I am going to Waikiki this Wednesday, March 29 until April 4. I have heard it is raining alot. Does any body know how the weather is right now? Is Waikiki getting all of this rain that I am hearing about? We have a luau, whale watch cruise, and snorkeling planned. Will we be able to continue our plans due to the weather?
