Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort

Honolulu, Honolulu

Star rating

The hotel

Enjoy an aloha-style welcome at the award-winning Outrigger Reef. You can take in the stunning ocean views, relax among the Polynesian canoe art and soak up the sun by the pool. In need of some peace and pampering? Look no further than the elegant Spa — we recommend the traditional Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage. But if you like to be more active, why not set sail in a catamaran (keep your eyes peeled for spinner and bottlenose dolphins) or enjoy a paddle in the surf in an authentic outrigger canoe. If you prefer dry land, amble along the Waikiki Beach Walk promenade, stopping at a café on route, or take a hike to Point Leahi at the summit of Diamond Head. Back at the hotel, you can grill-your-own hand-carved steaks and fresh fish by the beach or dine poolside at Kani Ka Pila Grille, as you watch the live evening entertainment.

Thank you so much to Ron at Outrigger for helping me book activities during my trip! I had not planned anything before travel, so he helped me decide what I wanted to fit in during my week-long stay. My favorite activities were the lu'au at the Marriott Hotel and the Paradise Circle Island tour. The lu'au came with a delicious dinner buffet and pictures with the dancers; it was a beautiful display of Hawaiian culture. The Paradise Circle Island tour was my #1. The tour takes you to many scenic Hawaiian areas and food/souvenir stops. The tour showed you the essence of Hawaii and many things you wouldn't see in downtown Waikiki. Read less

This was our second time visiting the Outrigger Reef Waikiki Resort; it was, once again, a great experience. Let’s start with the atmosphere, in my opinion it is a great and very pleasant atmosphere for relaxing and enjoying the nightly music or just relaxing poolside in one of the available cabanas or day beds, our choice was a day bed. The cost was a little high for just a space for the day, as are most things on the island. As for the avaialability of needed items, this was very convenient with an ABC store located on property. If you needed something it was, for the most part, available on the resort. Now I would like to talk about the service provided during our stay, the staff at the onsite restaurant Kani Ka Pila Grill were absolutely outstanding, from the to the point and here’s your drink Dylan to the always happy and willing to offer information Mikey and let’s not forget the always inviting and service oriented Rory and Billy, all of the staff was great and accommodating to the needs of the many customers flowing into and around the establishment. Thank you Dylan, Mikey, Rory and Billy, you all ROCK! These guys know their craft! I also would like to shout out to the day time bartender Alaina, always professional and kind to all, thank you Alaina! In closing, if you had to choose a resort that offers an array of selections and is on the smaller side, choose Outrigger Reef Waikiki, you won’t be disappointed! Read less
