Local beachfront hotel delivers the best of island life

Outrigger Reef's recent $110-million renovations are reflected throughout the beachfront property in island-style décor, architecture and amenities. The locally-owned hotel's new look is more traditional Hawaiiana than trendy with an emphasis on cultural appreciation and upscale amenities. Outrigger Reef is a perfect hotel for relaxing with the family. Find shopping and dining steps away.

Highlights
  • Sitting room houses a library of Hawaiian literary works
  • Aloha activities and presentations by Hawaiian cultural practitioners
  • Beachfront catamaran
Location

The Outrigger Reef sits oceanfront, surrounded by a park, small museum and the new Waikiki Beach Walk ,filled with shops and restaurants. Royal Hawaiian Center is a block away and Hawaii's largest shopping center, Ala Moana, is a 20-minute walk.

Rooms

The Outrigger Reef's 639 rooms have all been recently renovated and feature upscale traditional décor with modern conveniences. Many rooms have private balconies and room sizes range to four-bedroom suites. Enjoy spectacular scenery from oceanview rooms. All rooms feature flat-panel LCD TV, Nintendo, alarm clock/radio with MP3 player, coffee and tea stations, and complimentary direct-dial calls anywhere in Hawaii, US mainland or Canada.

Dining

The oceanfront Shore Bird Restaurant & Beach Bar is great for families, offering an all-you-can-eat salad bar and the option to grill your own steaks and fish. Enjoy casually elegant dining with fresh Pacific Rim dishes at the new Ocean House Restaurant.

Even survived the tsunami

Overall, we had a great time. On the downside, when we inquired about things to do, tours, etc., the hotel referred us to an "outsider" tour desk company located in the lobby. If you didn't buy their tour they would offer very little, if any, information. The information they did offer was to discourage you from doing anything but their tour. They told us that we would never get into Pearl Harbor by doing it ourselves. We still went by ourselves and there were no lines, no waits as they said there would surely be. Disappointed that the hotel's business center required you to purchase internet time on the computers which really didn't work too well when trying to check in with the airlines. They did an outstanding job with the warning for the tsunami and handled the task very well. Great location. We would go their again.

Shopping, dining, entertainment is either at the hotel or a very short walk away. Beach is right next to the hotel, probably within 15 to 20 yards.

Outrigger Reef was the best!

Loved this remodeled hotel, ate at all 3 restaurants (the Ocean Room was by far the best and amazing). The staff was first class and the remodeled rooms were simply great!

Eat at the Ocean House in the hotel for dinner and breakfast. Amazing dinner and a very reasonable breakfast as well that was certainly worth trying as well.

Best Value in Oahu!

Traveling with my daughter for her 16th birthday and wow, this hotel had everything. Our room was huge...with two balconies, one with ocean view, one with city view and the housekeeping staff was awesome. We were steps from the beach and all the shopping we could ever want. Food at Shorebird restaurant was great and the Starbucks was great for our morning coffee. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Try the parasailing! We were able to do that tandem for $64, plus for an additional $20, the ships captain took pictures of us (48 photos) and gave us the digital chip so we could do with it what we wanted. A great deal and they picked us up and returned us to the hotel. What a great day!

Wonderful Stay

We really enjoyed the beautifully decorated, spa-like rooms that were immaculately clean. Gardens & walkways a true tropical experience. Restaurant required customers to cook their own main course. Who thought that would be a good idea to make the guests prepare their own food? Not the kind of restaurant I would expect in a wonderful hotel like this.

Brillant Choice!

We were so excited about our choice of hotel when we arrived at the Outrigger Reef. The location was beautiful and the staff were so nice. We were bumped off of our flight so we had to check in a day later. They had no problem moving our check in and check out dates. We were initially booked for a oceanview room but we were upgraded to an oceanfront room. The view was spectacular. It really almost made you want to stay in the room the entire time. The hotel provided vouchers for breakfast and it was delicious each day. The hotel is in a great location that is right on the beach and near some of the best shopping centers. I am so thankful that all turned out well with this hotel. When we get back to Honolulu, we will definitely be returning to The Outrigger Reef!

Try to take advantage of the "Happy Hour" specials as drinks can get very expensive.
