The best selling guide to O'ahu... Oahu Revealed |
Aqua Bamboo Waikiki (866) 406-2782 or (808) 922-7777 2425 Kuhio Ave. ![]()
92 rooms, pool, spa, sauna, free Wi-Fi in lobby and pool areas, free hi-speed Internet access in rooms, free room safes, coffee makers with free coffee daily, small day spa, 24-hour business center, free local calls, bbq. A 12-floor 1965 building that’s been turned into a boutique hotel. The atmosphere is very tranquil despite being in middle of Waikiki. A nice pool, fresh bamboo, apples at the front desk and Buddhas sprinkled about help add to its appeal, which has sort of a contempory Asian feel. Their saltwater pool is nice with the sound of a waterfall to drown the city noise. Because of the relatively small size, nothing feels too distant. Service is personalized and warm. Some rooms are pretty small but laid out well, so it’s less of an issue. (The building gets smaller as it goes up.) The rooms are bright and modern with hints of bamboo sprinkled about. There’s a docking station for your iPod, a place to secure your surfboard, and free fresh ground-to-order coffee and tea in the lobby 24 hours a day. Hotel-type rooms have a microwave, fridge and coffee makeradd a burner for the kitchenettes. If you’re staying on a lower floor, opt for a room facing the courtyard pool. 2-minute walk to the beach. Self-parking is $20. Overall, we like the place a lot. Rooms (170215 sq. ft.) are $265, studios with kitchenettes (214362 sq. ft.) are $310. Suites (3711,078 sq. ft.) are $325$500. |
