Clients Love the Outrigger Reef in Waikiki


Here is a letter that we received from a satisfied client that I recently referred to The Outrigger Reef on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii;

Than You So much!!  This was our first trip to Hawaii, which was a celebration of a milestone (25th)anniversary. The Outrigger Reef exceeded all of our expectations in every way. The property was absolutely gorgeous, inside and out. And while it was a large hotel, it never felt overwhelmingly large to us. Service was excellent at all levels. When we checked in, we were told they had upgraded us to an ocean front room in the Ocean Tower. It turned out to be an amazing corner room, 2 decks with views of the ocean and Diamond Head. This hotel is truly "ocean front" - the guest rooms are directly above the beach. We had the daily breakfast buffet in the Shore Bird (included in our package), and also had lunch and dinner in the Shore Bird and Ocean House restaurants - all meals were excellent. The Shore Bird was also fun in the evening with music and karaoke. The beach was lovely and surprisingly uncrowded, totally unexpected. We were in awe of the view of Diamond Head and the beautiful ocean water. A short walk to a prime tourist area with the obligatory stores and crowds, if that's what you are looking for, but we never felt its presence while we were in the hotel or on the beach. Easy transfers to bus tours and other events. This hotel also offers free internet and free long distance to the mainland US. If you are looking for a beautiful resort hotel that is close to the action but still offers the option to enjoy the beauty of Waikiki beach without the crowds, this is the place to be. This would absolutely be our first choice is we are ever fortunate enough to return here in the future. We miss it already!

Thanks Again,
"A satisfied client"

I Love.....The Outrigger Reef Hotel in Waikiki





I last stood at the Outrigger Reef in Waikiki two years ago during their renovation. Coming back to Waikiki to see it finished was a joy! The outdoor bar and stage area next to the pool was new. They had top notch local musicians every night. The Shorebird restaurant and Ocean House are so good! The rooms are fantastic and newly decorated. Free internet!! The staff was helpful and friendly. Being located on Waikiki Beach is always a plus. It is in the best location right on the Waikiki Beach Walk. Love it!!

View From Diamond Head--Waikiki


Here is a shot taken from the top of Diamond Head on Oahu, Hawaii. The most famous volcanic crater in the world is Diamond Head, is located the end of Waikiki overlooking the Pacific Ocean. To get there is not too difficult although you should be in decent health. There are two sets of stairs, one with 99 steps and the other, 76 steps. There is also a 225-foot unlit tunnel. The hike is classified as easy to moderate in exertion but is certainly worth the breathtaking, unparalleled view of the entire west side of Oahu.

Additionally,
  • Diamond Head Trail is 1 ¾ miles to the rim and takes about 1 ½ hours
  • There is NO shade schedule an early hike
  • Bring water
  • Bathrooms available at the trailhead
