OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel

A friend and I stayed at the Outrigger from June 9-16 and had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed the welcoming staff, island-inspired decor, and overall atmosphere. Everything we needed was within walking distance, including the beach--just a 5 minute stroll down Surfboard Lane and you're right there!||I would like to especially commend our room host, Jeannette, for outstanding service. She kept our room clean and comfortable, and was extremely attentive to even the smallest details. When we had occasion to greet her in the mornings before departing for the day's activities, she was always warm and friendly--we really felt right at home.||Also, Kristina at the front desk was outgoing and connected well with us as guests. She provided us with many tips on enjoying the local flavor to the fullest.||We had such a fun girl's getaway--planned for years--and will treasure our memories of a fantastic week in Hawaii.

Caren and Cyrus at the front desk have been absolutely lovely so far! They’ve been so kind, welcoming, and helpful since I arrived. It was such a thoughtful surprise when they gave me a complimentary recycle bag and chocolates! The hotel is very clean, bigger than I expected, and in a great location-right in the middle of everything. I’m really enjoying my stay so far and looking forward to the rest of it! 🤍✨

We had a great stay at the OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beachcomber! Our travel package included breakfast vouchers, and the food was solid- good coffee, tasty options, and a great way to start the day. The hotel also has a nice pool and is perfectly located right on the main street in Waikiki, surrounded by great restaurants, luxury shopping, and tons of tourist activity. We always felt safe walking around, and the vibe was lively and fun. One of the best parts is how close it is to the beach just a short block away, making it super easy to go back and forth. The hotel itself is clean, the elevators are smooth and fast, and the service from the staff was excellent throughout. The only downside: There’s no self-parking option, which wasn’t clearly mentioned in our package. Valet parking is mandatory and costs about $60 per day, which felt a bit steep and somewhat misleading since it wasn’t made obvious during booking. So if you’re planning to rent a car, definitely factor that in. Other than that, this is a great hotel with a fantastic location. We’d definitely recommend it for a Waikiki stay just be prepared for the parking situation.

Here for our 25th anniversary and got an ocean-view room. The hotel isn't on the beach but across the street. It was very close to everything. The room was comfortable and had a balcony facing the ocean. The view was great. The street noise is noticeable when the slider is open but when the slider is closed it is quiet. Hotel breakfast was good with several different choices. We prepaid and had about 6 different choices and if we wanted to add anything it was $6. Happy hour from noon to 6 pm with $3 beer and $10 pizza. I would stay here again and recommend this for the location and price! Loved our stay here!

We booked directly through hotel with a discount code for a decent rate- for Waikiki it was an ok value (they do charge a resort fee, no breakfast included for us), high quality overall. Rooms were clean, updated, high quality, no microwave but Keurig brewers are in each room. They do give a drawstring bag on check in for beach gear and provide beach towels by the lobby, as well as sunscreen dispenser and a filtered water dispenser which was appreciated. 7 minute walk to Waikiki beach which is great!|The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly- I do wish they mentioned the Outrigger $50 resort activity credit per room, which we put toward the Cirque su Soliel Auana performance. Ask about it if you stay!

We had a multitude of issues during our stay at the Outrigger Beachcomber. When we reached our room, we noticed that the door wasn't completely closed. After chalking that up to a minor mistake, we attempted to cast our phones to the TV to fall asleep. That didn't work. The next morning we woke up to take a shower and stepped out into a giant puddle. We just put towels down and left because we had a lot to do that day. We came back later and were able to cast to the TV with no issues. The next morning we took a shower and had the same issue of a giant puddle on the floor afterwards. We were in a hurry and decided to call maintenance when we got back. That night we called maintenance and they asked us if we had the shower head pointed at the door. Of course we didn't! We know how to take a shower. They didn't even turn the shower on to troubleshoot. We couldn't cast to the TV again so they tried and said the new TV service was messing everything up so nothing was working. The next day the shower had the same issue but we were tired of fighting with them so just let it go. We came back from the beach the next day and noticed that the door had been left ajar again after housekeeping cleaned our room. I immediately went down to the front desk to let them know. All they said was to let them know if anything was stolen. That's it. I definitely do not recommend staying at this hotel.

I wanted to extend my sincere gratitude for the incredible hospitality during my recent three-week stay at your beautiful hotel, Outrigger Beachcomber, in Waikīkī. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and well cared for. Your staff’s warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail made a lasting impression. The customer service I received during my stay was truly outstanding. The front desk staff were consistently warm, welcoming, and helpful — always ready with a smile and quick to assist with any questions or requests. A special shoutout to Kiana and Carleen and their managers Aira and Daniel!! Thank you for your patience and flexibility in accommodating my requests for an extended stay. Every single time I needed something from suggestions for nearby nail salons to needing extra coat hangers in the room to handling sensitive dry cleaning requests - front desk associates were there with a smile and prompt solution and assistance for all my requests and inquiries. Thank you for going above and beyond to make everything seamless!! You are a fantastic team!!! I would also like to mention that the housekeeping service provided by Lynn and Fina was phenomenal!!! My room was always impeccably clean, thoughtfully organized, and refreshed with care. I had thrown a satin scarf on my bed carelessly one morning as I was in a rush to catch an island tour. Lynn was in charge of servicing my room that day. Upon my return I noticed the scarf was carefully folded into a heart shape and placed on top of my neatly made bed. That sweet, little gesture touched my heart deeply - it truly showed me how cared for I was at the Beachcomber. Lynn, thank you for looking after my things with such care 💖 (I have attached a photo of your little creation). The final week of my stay I had been moved to the 21st floor where Fina was in charge of housekeeping my room. Her hospitality was as equally warm and caring 💖 !! On my first day in the new room, I found two individually wrapped pineapple gummies accompanied by a sweet welcome note. I actually brought these back home to Canada with me and shared with my dad, who absolutely loved them :) That was Fina's way of spreading Hawaiian aloha all the way to the North :) Mahalo, Lynn and Fina! Throughout my three-week stay, I ended up extending my visit one week at a time as I was planning on the go. Each time, the front desk team was incredibly accommodating — even with the weekly room changes, the front desk managers, Aira and Daniel, ensured I always had a room of the same high quality, with a beautiful partial ocean view. I truly appreciated their effort to maintain that consistency and comfort, which made my extended stay feel seamless and stress-free. Thank you, Outrigger! Every member of your staff I encountered — from the bellman to the front desk manager to the housekeeping team — was truly outstanding. They are the reason I decided to spend my 3-week vacation at your establishment instead of other hotels. I wish the front desk managers Aira and Daniel, as well as front desk associates Kiana and Carleen along with housekeeping ladies Lynn and Fina, continued professional success in the future! You are truly stars ✨✨✨ I sincerely hope this review comes to the attention of upper management so the exceptional service and dedication of these employees can be properly acknowledged and rewarded.

Great location in Waikiki! Room was clean, amazing view, staff was very friendly and welcoming. Florence, our housekeeping provider was extremely pleasant and helped us with any room needs that came up. Very kind woman and seems to enjoy working here as well. |Thank you Florence!🙂

Decided to stay here for my third time in Oahu through Costco Travel and I'd 100% recommend this hotel for everyone wanting to be in a really central location within Waikiki. I've previously stayed at the Ilikai and Hilton Hawaiian Village and I'd put the Beachcomber at the top of both just solely for the location. Not sure how this is a 3-star hotel because you get so many great amenities within the hotel itself! As for the hotel's location, there are TONS of quick eats and restaurants around the area if you're tired and need something to eat/drink nearby. For one, there's an ABC store right around lululemon so you can get all your toiletries and everything you need there. They also have a new Target in the International Marketplace across. You can also cross the street to Royal Hawaiian Center for some yummy acai bowls and shaved ice at Island Vintage. Tons of luxury shops around Kalakaua Ave and easy access to the beach if you go through the street where Banan Beach Shack is. With the hotel's breakfast voucher, you get one free breakfast item from the selected items and one free 16 oz coffee/drink per person which is an amazing value. Although their menu items are already pretty reasonably priced compared to other cafes, their medium iced lattes are $5.25 so if you're a coffee drinker, this can save you a lot of money just on your morning drinks. They have a few limited breakfast item for voucher users, but we got the ham and cheese croissant and breakfast bagel and both were very filling. They were plated very nicely with a side of salad. The hotel lobby has a free water purifier machine, so you can fill up your water bottles as much as you'd like during your stay here. Not sure if this is a new feature, but we enjoyed not having to buy packs of water at the ABC store this time around. Valet parking as of 12/19/24 is now at $55 per day (vs. $50 per day when we booked in July 2024), which really isn't too bad. However, note that the lot can fill up around dinnertime and if this is the case, the valet attendant will likely direct you to a self-parking overflow lot a block or two away from the hotel. We opted for the Waikiki View w/King Bed and our room was in great condition when we first checked in. Lots of great natural lighting and it wasn't too loud throughout the day and night. They offer early check in at $50, which was godsend because this really allowed us to jumpstart our first day. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and liked how friendly the staff and housekeeping ladies were!

The Waikiki Beachcomber has been my go-to spot whenever I visit Waikiki. Having stayed here three times now, I can confidently say that I've always truly enjoyed my time at this wonderful hotel. The service is consistently superb, and during my latest visit, I was especially impressed. On this most recent trip, I lost one of my favorite Hello Kitty jackets--a limited-edition item that I was absolutely heartbroken over. Late in the evening, I approached the front desk to inquire about the lost and found. The staff immediately sprang into action. One of the front desk employees even personally accompanied the housekeeping team to search through the lost and found. Although they located the jacket that evening, it was securely stored away, and the housekeeping manager had already left for the day. The staff reassured me that I'd be able to retrieve it in the morning--and sure enough, I did! It turned out that a housekeeping employee, Ryan, had found it in the hotel lobby and promptly turned it in. I was so touched by the kindness and diligence of everyone involved, especially Ryan. Special thanks also go to Florentina and Cyrus, who went above and beyond to assist me. The Waikiki Beachcomber has always been my favorite place to stay in Waikiki, and this experience has only reinforced my confidence in choosing them. Their exceptional service and attentiveness are truly unmatched. Thank you, Beachcomber, for making my stay so memorable--and for helping me recover my beloved jacket!

The Outrigger Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel and Resort offers an exceptional stay in a prime location. Situated in the heart of the city, it boasts breathtaking ocean views from the front and serene mountain vistas at the back. Its close proximity--just a 3-minute walk--to the beach makes it an ideal choice for travelers looking to enjoy the best of Waikiki. The resort features a pool and hot tub for relaxation, complemented by excellent customer service that is both attentive and accommodating. Additionally, its location is a food and shopping haven, with numerous top-notch restaurants and shops within walking distance. Overall, this hotel comes highly recommended for its convenience, amenities, and outstanding hospitality.

I am so shocked that this hotel doesn't have 5 stars from everyone. It shows like a higher end hotel with a beautiful lobby area that opens up to a pool, Maui Brewing company, and an Aroma Cafe that is perfect for breakfast, coffee, and pool food. Our room was really nice and had fun decor. You're right in the middle of everything in Oahu - right near the International Market and a block from the beach. On top of all that we got a killer rate because we booked through Costco Travel, which included breakfast vouchers at the Aroma Cafe. We could basically walk everywhere and the staff at the front desk was so helpful with everything. They even have a weekly movie night at the pool! I would definitely recommend coming back to this hotel.

Angelica was amazing! She made our stay all worth the trip. Excellent customer service. We always stay here every time we come to Waikiki. Thanks for everything.

Booked the Outrigger Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel through Costco Travel after the great reviews. After I completed booking, I did go back into several Yelp reviews and became hesitant as I saw some reoccurring negative reviews about the noise. Arrived an hour before check-in time and the girl at the front desk (didn't catch her name) was so friendly and accommodating to find us an available room so we didn't need to wait. We were placed on the 2nd floor, which made me more nervous about the noise, but heard nothing our entire stay. The only downfall regarding noise during this time is from the construction happening close by - though it was only during the day. We were out most of the time so it was not impactful. Spacious enough rooms - Our king size room had a mini 2-seater couch, small circular glass table, an accent chair, and a bench at the end of the bed for seating. Only downfall was certain parts of the room were a bit dusty. There was also a power outage during one of the nights and the generator didn't kick in appropriately. There was lighting in the hallways to the rooms but the room itself had a complete outage - no lights or AC working so we did leave the room for almost 2 hours before returning. Thankfully the power was back on! $50 per night for parking which is pretty standard for hotels in the general area. Valet only - valet staff were very friendly and drop off/pick up was a breeze. Personally was very happy with the Costco package as it came with a Costco gift card + vouchers to the Hawaiian Aroma Cafe located right downstairs from the hotel that allows for a limited breakfast menu item + beverage. GREAT location!! The hotel is right across the street from the Royal Hawaiian Center and closely to the International Marketplace with many eateries and shops located in the surrounding area... not to mention the beach is just a short block away!

This hotel was very trendy in my opinion! Great location, 5 minute walk across the beach which was perfect for when we wanted to catch the sunrise! Attached to a brewery and next to a ton of shops. Great cafe and bar inside the hotel as well. The bar had a decent happy hour everyday and a nice pool area with towels conveniently located. Front desk staff was friendly. Rooms were clean and spacious. Valet guys were helpful and patient with our large group. This place is special!

Where do I begin lol. Thinnest absolute weakest toilet paper in the room. That should be enough info to not stay here. Not one water bottle provided. Thin walls, slighter thicker than the TP. Will never come back for this price. Motel 6 shits on this. Bed was slumpy and gym was slightly bigger than a gas station bathroom lol

Loved everything about my stay here! The service was outstanding, the room was spotless and spacious, and the view was incredible. The location is unbeatable--right in the heart of Waikiki, steps from the beach, shopping, and dining. For the quality and experience, it's a great value. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again!

We had a nice 5 night stay here. The room was clean, and came with a balcony overlooking the International Marketplace with an ocean view. When you open the sliding door, there is no question you have a city below, complete with sirens, cars, and a constant buzz of fans(?) and noise. If you want to feel like you're in a remote island, Waikiki is not the place for you! There were nights when I wished we were on an ocean front in Kauai where all you hear is the waves below. All that aside, this hotel is in a convenient location for your shopping, fine dining, drinking, beach going, Uber pickup, and car rental needs. We had a nice stay.

1st time in Waikiki, we stayed here without knowing what was around as it was a last minute trip (thank you @Southwest airlines and points). It's directly across the street from the beach, the rooms are amazing, the bed is so very comfortable. Housekeeping has been fantastic! Today is a chill day, happy hour at the coffee shop/bar is from 12-5. Amanda is our server and has been amazing! Highly recommend this hotel and it's amenities Centrally located, if you rent a car and keep it with you it is $50 a night for valet parking in enclosed parking garage. There are plenty of coffee bars, restaurants, activities around this area, and you do not have to go far.

Just stay away. Seems like a decent place, outside of its old 1970's room decor, but that's where it ends. Staff is inconsiderate, some rude, and not at all accommodating. Rooms are ok, but can use a heavy remodel. Outside our balcony are 12 noisy and loud A/C units sitting on the roof of the building next to us. They're constantly going that sitting on the balcony is not an option. Unless you like 90db white noise. Construction going on outside our window, too. Starts at 6am. Can hear their work and music all day long. Walls are paper thin... can hear the couple laughing and partying at 12:30am... until 2:30am. Constant heavy weed smell... unsure of the HVAC ducting here... but it's evident it's got issues if it's bring smoking from another room into mine. Fairly disgusting. There are way better places to stay in Waikiki than this place... whose staff doesn't care if you stay here at all.

Miserable check-in experience. Surly jerkass at front desk wouldn't let me even approach the desk for an interval. Basically turned me away and told me to come back later. His female colleague treated my check-in a lot better after an hour, but first impressions count for a lot. A selling point of the room was its partial ocean view but if you go out onto the balcony you're surrounded by the noise of the A/C cooling fans. Unattractive! Won't be back

My daughter and I just got back from a great 7 day stay at this hotel. It is right in the middle of everything you could ever need. The service was top notch all the way. We will for sure be back! Thank you

Exactly as advertised! "Partial beach view" is extremely partial, parking is $45/night, and it is very noisy, especially on the balcony (mostly street traffic and also you can hear the roosters in the shopping center west of the hotel from the twelfth floor). Otherwise, we had a great experience for our four nights!

We just concluded a 6 night stay at the outrigger beachcomber and it left a lot to be desired. While the staff were all very pleasant, the amenities and our overall experience was less than satisfactory. My boyfriend booked the reservation which included a breakfast coupon for use at the aroma cafe everyday of our stay. We'll get to the cafe food later on. Starting with the hotel itself, the decor was decent, with some signs of wear and tear. The location, however, was phenomenal. Could not have asked for a more central hotel within walking distance of all my favorite eateries and shopping destinations. What lacked is the pool area which is teeny tiny and misleading in photos, as well as the parking situation. Now to the food. Since we opted for the breakfast add on, you know we made sure those coupons were put to good use. One coupon allowed for any beverage and a selection from their entrees. During my stay I tried the açaí bowl, croissant sandwich, green tea waffle, panini and ono French toast. Every single meal I had was absolutely delicious! Coffee based beverages was standard but a great way to start the day. The worst part of our stay was the room. We booked a standard partial ocean view and we got jipped! The room looked nothing like the photos and it was TOO SMALL for just two adults. We had no couch, we were missing a nightstand on the left side, the bathroom/toilet directly faced the bed (GROSS AND UNSANITARY). There was no room for two suitcases, the bathroom was cramped and absolutely awful placement. The other 4 couples in our group received the rooms that we thought we would also be getting but boy were we wrong! We didn't even discover that their rooms were different until the last night. If you decide to book this hotel DO NOT ACCEPT ROOM 523.

I was going on vacation with my family to Oahu, and this was the hotel we stayed at! The pool was the perfect temperature, even at night during autumn. The room had a great view of the beach, which was not very far away as well! However, it was in quite an expensive area for purchasing food, and you had to go up and down floors to go to ice machines. But, the pool had a sick towel machine, which made up for it. Lastly, there is no shortage of food and drink inside the hotel!

Liked the location but the tiredness of the look of the hotel was just mediocre. What we paid for a one bedroom suite was much much more than double a suite in our own hometown which was even better as far as modern conveniences. Here you're paying for the touristy area of Waikiki & the view but difficult bc we could not even see Friday's fireworks as another hotel building had blocked that view. That other hotel that had the best view of fireworks had a cockroach so of course we won't ever stay there again. We did have a perfect view of Sky Waikiki. Like does that make a difference? Nope. Just had to mention it bc we had frequent there before. They had good appetizers! There are so many other beautiful hotels we prefer to stay in. We have stayed in multiple like the Ritz, Trump Tower, Embassy Suites & most recently Prince Waikiki. If we can overlook the tiredness of the accommodations this location can be ideal. So on the fence though...bc we had stayed at multiple locations in Waikiki! It's truly difficult to decide. I think bottom line are accommodations most important or closeness of convenient surroundings more important? Both are! Ask my Gemini wife. Will wife number 1 decide over number 2? We shall see! LOL decisions...decisions...decisions!!!

Humble and Aloha welcoming upon arrival after a hard long week was incredibly refreshing... Michael at the front desk has an spectacular joyful presence giving me on updates for the weekend while ensuring guest happiness & comfort. I felt like family as I headed to my magnificent room! ... from parking valets as I arrived to front desk staff & housekeeping on my floor all greeting and wishing me an fabulous stay !! I came for an event across at Royal Hawaiian, so *location *location* incredibly " right on!! Thank you Michael and staff for making my staycation an memorable time of joy!!

Outrigger Waikiki beachcomber is my fiancé and I's go to property whenever we are in Oahu! We've stayed here at least 4 times - it's our home away from home! We love it here so much because it's in the heart of Waikiki, walking distance to the beach, restaurants and shops. Another plus is there's coffee downstairs for purchase, amazing coffee! Each stay has been so pleasant because of the front desk, housekeepers and valet. This review is for Kristina at the front desk - she was amazing and went above and beyond from our check in up to when we checked out. She made sure our stay was comfortable! She even had sent us robes and slippers sent to our room (without us asking!) Amazing staff! Clean property! Comfortable beds! We just love this property so much, I have nothing bad to say! Please select this property if you ever visit Oahu, you won't regret it.

This was a very nice and clean hotel. They have valet parking and the guys working it were friendly. The lobby was cute, they had a small convenience store, coffee shop + bar. There was some construction on the right side but it wasn't disruptive at all I didn't even notice until our 3rd day there. It's in a really good location. It's right across the street from the Royal Hawaiian center, and less than 5 min walk to the international market place. I would stay here again

what a waste of money the room was dirty an mediocre.the staff was rude and not very helpful at check in..my sister stayed here twice don't understand how it changed in two years iam not satisfied at all for 3k and 8days later i feel robbed and will never recommend this place to anyone plus they had so many rules i felt like i was not on vacation

The Beachcomber has changed so much since I lived on Oahu, and I'm so glad that my hubby and I got to stay here for a night on our way to Maui. Once we checked in and got into our room, we immediately wished we were staying longer! Our room had an ocean view, which we actually didn't expect, and was quite spacious! Plus we were on the 21st floor, so our view of Waikiki Beach and Kalakaua Ave (the main strip in Waikiki) were incredible! We could see all the way to Diamond Head, and straight out to the ocean (between the other high rise buildings of course). The room itself was beautifully appointed, and we especially loved the wave artwork by Zak Noyle that covers an entire wall. The rest of the hotel is really open and airy as well. Once you get up the escalator from the street, you enter a spacious lobby with Hawaiian Aroma Caffe and Maui Brewing Co. right there framing the pool. For the short 24 hours we were there, we had all we needed, though we did venture out to meet up with friends/ohana on the island. The hotel staff were very friendly and welcoming, really going the extra mile to show us the Aloha Spirit. We even met our housekeeper in the hallway and she greeted us by our last name (Mr. & Mrs.) and asked how our morning was going! Special shout out and mahalo to Bibiana! She's certainly a gem to have around, and was so gracious to us. We can't wait to stay here again the next time we're back on island!

Just returned from A 9 day stay at the lovely beachcomber ! Right in the middle of everything. Nice pool and jacuzzi and great customer service . We got a partial ocean view room On the 15th floor . We also bought the breakfast package at Aromas Cafe in lobby .

I really love this hotel very much, it was very convenient during my stay because this in the central city of Hawaii, all the shopping centers and just across to Waikiki beach. I will recommend this hotel to all my friends and family.

great customer service great location. rooms need a bit updating but having a balcony view is worth it. also you just open the slider and get the live music. however!!!!!!!! them freaking elevators take 5-7 business days to go down wtf!!!!!!! they need to be reprogrammed! once it said to get on B so we got on B and it went up! we were supposed to go down!!!!!!!!!!

As kamaaina we enjoy this location on the waikiki strip. Closely located between royal hawaiian shopping center and across cheesecake factory its lobby is up the elevator from busy kalakaua ave. Also situated right next to dukes lane and international marketplace for more shopping and dining options. We always enjoy the hotel's coffee shop which is run by hawaii aroma cafe that has the best baristas and acai bowls. Maui brewing company's menu is just enough for a casual meal for lunch, happy hour or dinner poolside if you want to take it to go. The hotel is valet only but if you need bell service youll need to drop your bags off on the street level first. We made the mistake of driving up and had to lug our things ourselves (first world problems.... But lucky we didnt have too much). The mini fridge is free for you to store food and drink items which is a nice perk vs other hotels that have it stocked with items for purchase. The pool is small but you can help yourselves to towels from the towel area utilizing your room key. Another safety feature is needing to scan your key to get to the hotel room floors. We were able to access the beach thru a short walk between the moana surf rider hotel and the royal hawaiian which you could see from the hotel balcony. We were lucky to have an ocean front view which you could see the top of the banyan tree and happenings of international market place and kalakaua ave. Wish it had a tub in the bathroom but otherwise we always enjoy our stay here

I just had my first Hawaii trip ever and had such an amazing 6 nights at the Waikiki Beachcomber. With so many hotels in Waikiki to choose from, I did a lot of research and narrowed it down to these three: cost, customer reviews and most important location and this hotel met all of those! Location: Waikiki Beachcomber is right in the heart of Waikiki with tons of shopping and dining just steps away! You have luxury designer stores, ABC stores, H&M, Macys, Duke's Marketplace and so much more surrounding you. You're also a block away from the beach (about a 5 minute walk) Cost: Since this trip was also my honeymoon my husband and I definitely wanted a room with an ocean view. We had always talked about staying at a beachfront hotel ..but the prices were crazy expensive and definitely out of our budget. Waikiki Beachcomber is only one block from the beach, and we still had the best view of the ocean, the city and of Diamond Head! Most importantly, we saved close to $1000 vs booking a beachfront hotel (Sheraton Waikiki, Royal Hawaiian Hotel, etc) Hotel Staff: All of the front desk staff were so warm, welcoming and super friendly and made our stay very enjoyable. I also had the pleasure of meeting ...I think her name is Esmeralita? She took care of our housekeeping needs and was super friendly :) Hawaiian Aroma Cafe: Great spot to come too for breakfast, coffee & their Açaí Bowls. I tried their Morning Feast breakfast platter and their Original Açaí Bowl. Decor: I loooove the bright colors and decor at this hotel, especially our room! Definitely gave us the Hawaiian vibes! Pool: The only disappointment I have about this hotel is their pool is very small, but I already knew that prior to booking. The beach is where you want to be anyways! Overall, our stay at Waikiki Beachcomber was fantastic and I totally recommend staying here! We're hoping to make Hawaii an annual vacation so looking forward to our next stay! :)

Really enjoyed the Beachcomber on our trip to Waikiki. Convenient location with a short walk to the beach, tons of shops and places to eat really nearby, and loved having a brewery in the building. Only dropped in once, but would stay her again for that perk. The place has fun vibes and feels clean and modern. Huge pump of free sunscreen by the pool that you can hit before you go roaming (loved that), and the view from the room was nice. Huge extra thanks to the hotel for helping us out in a pinch. We booked thru Expedia (DO NOT DO THAT) and had a weather related canceled flight on the way down. Expedia was NO help, but the hotel people were very friendly and helpful in working thru Expedia to help us get the room canceled and rebooked at current prices. Expedia was ready to have us rebook and lose the initial cost of a 5 night stay. A+ customer service on what was a HORRIBLE day for us.

Always good to Kamaiiana Located near international market place. Convenient shopping and rooms are always clean. Staff has always been friendly and never treat us different from tourist

I've stayed here a few times this year so far, first staycation was in a Waikiki view room and second was a partial ocean view room.first visit was in April 2021 at the tail end of the pandemic. The streets were packed with tourists taking advantage of the islands opening up. This time staycation for a quiet night out. Check-in was quick, no line. The lobby was clean AND there's a water bottle refill station next to the elevators. Best thing about this hotel! The coffee shop is decent, Market run by Foodland where you can grab your Maika`i brand favorite snacks.

This hotel is a very standard 3-star hotel. It used to be a Courtyard Marriott to give you an idea. The rooms are small, but clean. The rooms advertised as Ocean View are a bit misleading since the ocean view only really exists if you step out onto the balcony and look around the side of the hotel. If you look directly out the window, you see a bunch of buildings...which that was definitely not ocean view unless you are superhuman with xray vision. Pool here is smaller than what the pictures show. The fitness center is also really small as well. For the price, you get the basics - but no frills. You really are paying for the central location right on Waikiki in the middle of almost everything! We were a little disappointed with the check-in process since we asked to upgrade our room to a 1-bedroom suite, but they said there weren't any available. Then our friends who checked in after us were given a "free upgrade" to a 1-bedroom suite...so that was a little weird and wacky. Like - why would they say there aren't rooms available, then give a room away for free when we're willing to pay for it? Hmph. Mysteryyy.

This was my second time staying here at this location. The first time everything went well. We stayed for four days. This time we came back with our seven month old ,my sister,her family and stayed for eight days. We got rooms right next-door to each other because it would've been convenient for us because of the kids. I woke up after the first night and there were bugs in our room. They look like Nats, but didn't fly and they were smaller than ants. I couldn't really tell what they were but they were everywhere. I called the front desk and let them know. They sent someone up who look like an exterminator. He told us that he couldn't spray the room because of the baby which I was already uncomfortable with bugs being in my room in the first place. They also sent a security guard,for what I don't know. Both saw and recorded the bugs, the Front desk called me back and switched us into another room. That room didn't have bugs. However housekeeping was terrible. They left a wet dirty rag on our dresser after coming in to clean, and as I was showering, I was looking around and noticed there was mold when I checked out I told the manager and she asked me if we were having problems breathing, and I told her no, and I showed her pictures and she said that that was to be Determined on if that was mold or not. My sister Said she seen mold in her bathroom as well.They really need to tighten up on their cleanliness. We won't be returning next year. I'm giving this post a two star because of the location right in the heart of Waikiki

Location, location. Besides the oceanfront hotels, it doesn't get any better than this. Directly across from the Royal Hawaiian Center and just minutes away from International Marketplace and Waikiki Beach, the Waikiki Beachcomber has the perfect location, smack dab in the heart of the Waikiki hotel and shopping strip. Convenience is the name of the game here which you're going to have plenty of for its price point. Valet parking only! Our partial ocean view, double bed hotel room was a good size for two people. Its recent renovations with a modern beach theme lent itself to creating a pleasant and comfortable ambiance for us. The bathroom and showers were clean and the toiletries provided smelled lovely. But it was the breathtaking view overlooking the palm-tree lined streets, the famed pink Royal Hawaiian hotel and the turquoise blue ocean that really made our stay special. I could've hung out at the balcony all morning just soaking in the immaculate views had I had a little extra time. Due to its location in a high traffic zone, we could faintly hear the nighttime crowds and music despite being on the 20th floor. I had earplugs so I was able to sleep just fine but just something to keep in mind when staying in the center of all the action.

A very swanky place and right at the heart of it all. Kristina at the front desk took very good care of us all while informing us & sharing great stories about places to go! She even upgraded us to a room w/ a fabulous view! She is AWESOME & a great bubbly personality who is perfect for an introduction who embodies the spirit of Aloha! Honeymooning here in Waikiki, we got the VIP treatment w/ some perks! Worth the two years wait. Amenities are great here and the rooms are immaculate. No tub however the pool, jacuzzi & beach is just amazing! Mahalo Kristina for your warm hospitality & we look forward to hopefully staying here every time we make Waikiki our home base.

We stayed here two years ago for our honeymoon and loved it here. The Hula Grill and Dukes are great restaurants. We are here again, but staying at the Hyatt Regency and we regret not coming back to the Outrigger. This will be our go to when we come back.

Michael at the front desk was especially helpful and even accommodated for my expectant wife. 10 out of 10 outstanding customer service.

I've stayed here twice now most recently for 7 nights and also last year for 4 nights. I returned to this hotel for this year's trip because after doing my research, it's the most reasonably priced for the area and for also being a modern hotel. It's only one street away from Waikiki beach with nearby beach access. Waikiki beachcomber by outrigger's location is prime. It's right next to the international marketplace mall, across the street is the the Royal Hawaiian center with a lot of high ends shops, and there are a lot of walkable options to food spots, bars, and other entertainment. Maui brewing is accessible from the lobby and there's also aroma cafe that connects to the pool where you can grab coffee and a bite in the morning, and the cafe turns into a bar at night where you can order drinks and take it to the pool and hot tub. The rooms are modern and I've gotten partial ocean view both times and a great view from the balcony of SKY Waikiki the rooftop bar that's just a street over. Some improvements I can think of for the hotel was that there weren't nightstands on both sides of the king size bed. There was only one night stand and the other side didn't have an outlet at all. The toilet paper was a bit rough and the toiletries provided (shampoo and conditioner) could have been a little better and there's no microwave in any of the rooms or building. The ice machines are only on two floors although there's a total of 23 floors so it was a bit of a trek at times to get ice. I would recommend this hotel to friends and family since I've had a pretty good stay overall here.

Such an amazing hotel. Super clean and the staff is very friendly. No issues with the room. It was at par with my expectations. Has a nice, little restaurant/coffee shop in the lobby. The hotel is not directly on the beach but the walk to the beach is less than 5 minutes since you only have to cross the street to get there. Wonderful experience. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Outrigger was so convenient, it is in the middle of the main Downtown area, what I liked most about it was the Maui brewing restaurant, the pool, and the Hawaiian Aroma caffe'. We'd go get a beer whenever we wanted, went to get a coffee early in the morning or laid out by the pool for some sun. The room was very modern and cute had a nice balcony with a great view of the ocean!

There were a few great things about this hotel and then a few not so great things. First, the location was ideal and the staff were super nice! The pool was lovely as was the room. The beds and pillows however were extremely uncomfortable. Also there's no queen beds available. Full size aren't really comfortably large enough for two adults and our family of three had to get a king room with a rollaway bed that was an extra $65 per night. The coffee shop in the lobby had decent food but it was extremely over priced. We arranged a shuttle ride through the hotel to Pearl harbor and they double booked us. They ended up pulling over in a random location and putting us on an Uber. The shuttle company was separate from the hotel but the hotel should be working with a business that is more organized and professional.

We found this hotel through the Costco travel package. We booked only a month in advance so it was pricey, but it was worth it. Very clean. The beds and pillows were comfy. They don't come clean your rooms daily unless you ask for it . They are great at providing extra towels or toiletries when needed. Our flight was late at night, so they let us hold our stuff with the bell hop so we can enjoy the pool during the day. They even have a hospitality room for resting as needed. Everything was clean and super friendly staff. Love the location.

This is our second stay at this location and this time we were there for a total of 11 nights. I have nothing but great things to say about the hotel and the staff! We booked a Deluxe ocean front room and our room had the most beautiful view! The rooms seem to be very well insulated as we couldn't hear any noise from the room above us nor really any noise from the rooms around us. The lanai was large and had a couple of chairs and a little table. Be aware that you do hear quite a bit of street noises which is the same for any other hotel I've stayed at in Waikiki because Kalakaua is a tunnel of noise and people like to go through with their loud motorcycles. The rooms are decorated very nicely and have very comfortable beds. We previously stayed in a partial ocean view which was also nice but a HUGE perk of the Deluxe ocean view room is that it also comes with a bidet in the bathroom!!! Love this and is totally worth the extra cost to stay in the deluxe ocean view room! The bell desk staff were great about helping us to get our luggage up to our room. The front desk staff are nice and helpful if we had any questions. The valet staff were always so friendly and quick to get our car and even open doors for us. They came to know us after being there for a few days and treated us so nicely. Anita who was our housekeeper and her relief Anna were so kind, helpful and did a wonderful job cleaning our room and changing our sheets periodically. She came to know us because we were there a few days and always spoke to us with a smile and made sure that we had everything we needed. Anita made our stay that much better and made us feel welcome! During the stay, we needed to have engineering come to fix our AC and I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they came and fixed the unit so fast that it didn't cause any inconvenience. This is our go to hotel for stays in Waikiki!

This is the type of hotel where you can stay and just hang out and enjoy all of the amenities of this hotel. I love the variety of restaurants and each day there's a different activity to do here. The highlight of my stay was the dive in movies and the different love bands. Whoever does the planning here has done an amazing job calculating the weekend events and the bands that play here. I love love love this hotel. I can't wait to come back.

Had a horrible experience here after an 8-night stay. I am pregnant and I also have a 3 year old child. The neighboring hotel room underneath us had a smoker who would smoke everyday on his balcony. We could smell the cigarette smoke in our room. I spoke to the neighbor and informed him that smoking is not allowed, and he continued smoking. I reported the smoking incidents to 2 different security guards, Theresa and Paul, but they said the smoker would not let them into the room and they couldn't do anything about it. I took a picture of the cigarettes on the balcony and Theresa the security guard also took a picture of the cigarettes from our balcony as well. While the smoker was smoking, I told Glenda the maid and she saw him with her own eyes. She also reported the incident. But they were not able to do anything about it. We spent so much time and effort trying to to get this resolved, but the hotel could not resolve it. I was horribly stressed and anxious because being around secondhand smoke during pregnancy is a major health hazard to my unborn child. It is also a terrible health hazard to my 3 year old child. I asked to move rooms and they could not move us - they said they are booked out for the 4th of July. Just an horrible experience. I would not recommend staying here if you want to be in a nonsmoking environment. The staff are powerless to enforce nonsmoking policy. I do not recommend this hotel.

I had an amazing stay here at this hotel upon arrive the staff was very welcoming! Our room was nice the decor vibes gave us the Hawaii feel the balcony had great views. Our maid was so friendly and sweet. I'll definitely be staying there again!

Fourth trip to Hawaii & we opted to stay in 2 separate hotels to get a different feel for Waikiki. Hotel #1 (Waikiki Beachcomber Outrigger) is strategically located to all the great food & shopping, beach is only 1 block away. Hotel was immaculate & recently renovated, its in a high traffic & well lit area so we felt safe. Check-in was a breeze with very friendly staff. Room was contemporary & had that tropical feel. We booked a partial ocean view king, from the balcony we got a small glimpse of the Pacific. Furnishings were adequate & functional: Keurig, fridge, ironing board, hair dryer and most importantly a safety box. Walk in shower was small but newly renovated with vinyl materials. Bathroom was tight, a tall individual can sit on the toilet while brushing your teeth or shaving. Second thought that's an ingenious design. The mattress was comfy & medium firm, pillows were quite fluffy & plushed. I have bad back, the chiropractors recommended thinner pillows so these were not the most ideal for me. I slept well nonetheless. Double curtains were highly effective in blocking out lights. We used the swimming pool & gym once, both requiring rsvp due to COVID restrictions. We didn't try Aroma Cafe or the restaurant across the lobby, but I liked their open air setting & fun vibes. Duke's lane, International Market, Royal Hawaiian Center all are next door. For Coffee addicts there are Island Vintage Coffee & Kona Coffee Purveyers nearby, the latter also has legit French pastries. Other good eats next door included Cheesecake factory, Wolfgang Steakhouse, Tim Ho Wan Dim Sum Specialist (must try their baked BBQ pork bun), 1849 (sister restaurant of Roy's), Marukame udon, Island Vintage shaved ice, Sam' kitchen garlic shrimp, Meguro Brother poke, etc. There were tons of other high quality Japanese options in Royal Hawaiian Center (RHC) across the street. For those with limited budget there is a food court as well as a separate food hall on the 2nd floor of RHC, the latter with some descent selections. Inside the Intern Market there were also plenty of options. Overall it was an excellent hotel in a convenient location. We were not too thrilled about the $103 resort fee for 3 nights, but that seems to be the norm for most hotels in the area.

Felt all the aloha during my stay here. First impressions are everything. The drop off area and lobby are tropically decorated with modern furniture and wooden lamps. Kristina greeted and assisted me with my check in. Just from a few words, I could tell she was enthusiastic about her job and treated every guest with the same amount of courtesy and etiquette. She was consistently polite as she assisted me with my gym reservations each day. I'm not sure about other guests but I had a room with an awesome view and a tropical modern vibe. The AC was perfect, pillows were comfy and cleanliness on point. Everyone staff I ran into had a positive attitude and greeted me. Mahalo for a great stay.

Great place! I've been here a couple of times now as a cheaper but arguably as nice alternative to the beachfront Outrigger properties in Waikiki. This place is so conveniently located and just across the street from the beach. The amenities are great, and it is clean and beautiful. I had an ocean view room my most recent stay and it was beautiful, absolutely worth it and way more affordable than other hotels. The service= phenomenal. Shout out to Kristina for being excellent at check in and check out. She embodies the aloha vibe and spirit and was an excellent welcome to the island!
