Honolulu and Waikiki Area Information

Area Quick Links:

Honolulu is really the epicenter of Oahu’s history, art, and culture. You will discover historic buildings such as Iolani Palace, which is the only royal palace on US soil. Enjoy the local arts? Downtown Honolulu is home of the Hawaii State Art Museum.

Want to explore a little further? Take the short drive out to the Nuuanu Pali Lookout for a panoramic view of the Koolau Mountains. On your way back visit Bishop Museum which houses the cultural, historical, natural treasures of the Pacific.

After sunset, make sure to find your way to Chinatown. During the day, Chinatown is a rich multicultural marketplace vibrant with sweet smelling lei stands, and hole-in-the-wall restaurants but at night, Downtown Honolulu fades into a sophisticated art and dining district with Jazz Clubs, galleries, trendy wine bars, and Chinese fusion restaurants.

Our Favorite Downtown event is ArtAfterDark, which is the first Fridays, second Saturdays, and third Thursdays of the month. Enjoy an intimate gallery experience with a Marti Gras flare. It will be a night you won’t soon forget.

Waikiki literally means “Spouting Waters” in the Hawaiian language.  Throughout history Waikiki has been known as the playground of Hawaii’s Ali’i (Royalty). Yes this is where the Ancient Hawaiian Kings, Queens, Princes and Princesses would celebrate life! Even today you still feel the Aloha spirit of olden days in the local people, culture, and pure natural beauty. Many say that there is no place on earth like it! All of us at Ali’i Beach Rentals would have to agree.

Waikiki is the perfect mix of contemporary comfort, vibrant history, and action packed activities.  Take a surf lesson in the morning then enjoy a traditional Lomi Lomi message on a lazy afternoon. The Waikiki nights are electrifying. Have an ocean front dinner at one of Waikiki’s world famous restaurants, don’t forget evening cocktails, and then experience the world-renowned nightlife. Amazing clubs such as Level  4, Zanzabar, and Senior Frogs is sure to steam up your nights!!
