"Oahu roughly translates as “gathering place,” and with more residents and visitors than any other island in Hawaii, it makes good on that promise."

Go to the beach early in the day and bring your mask and flippers for superb snorkeling.

"Formerly the W Waikiki, this scenic and stylish 50-room boutique hotel is about a block from the beach and a half-mile from Waikiki's crowds."

"The former 'W' hotel has toned down its hip, cutting-edge design and ended up transformed into a classy, boutique-style destination hotel."

"Anchoring the south end of Waikiki (a five-minute stroll from the action), adjacent to tony Sans Souci Beach, this establishment is next to the more conservative but superior New Otani."

Filtered views of the beach are the best you can ask for here, but it’s the Diamondhead vistas that get people’s attention.

"As Waikiki's first hotel, the 1901 plantation-style oceanfront Moana Surfrider offers a dose of historic charm on one of the nicest -- albeit most congested -- stretches of Waikiki Beach."

"The hotel's selling point is the historic main building: non-guests as well as guests are free to sit on the nostalgic, front-porch rocking chairs."

"Meticulously restored 1901 Beaux-Arts property—the first hotel on Waikiki Beach—with an Old Hawaii vibe (afternoon tea is de rigueur), plus one of Waikiki's only beachfront spas."

"Teatime on the Banyan Veranda will carry you back in time; enjoying contemporary Hawaiian entertainment in the same stunning setting is a highlight of any visit."
