White Sands Hotel (Honolulu, Hawaii) 2 Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"There’s often a sense around Waikīkī that the best time to visit might have been a few decades ago, before the beachfront filled in with towers. White Sands Hotel proudly declares itself to be the “last of the vintage walk-up hotels,” and it’s exactly that: a low-rise, three-story compound oriented around a palm-lined swimming pool and plentiful lounge and garden space. It’s an intentional throwback to the Seventies, when Honolulu still felt like a world apart from the continental U.S., and when laid-back bohemianism had yet to be replaced by sanitized luxury." - Tablet Hotels

Absolutely loved our stay at White Sands! It’s incredible to find such a peaceful and welcoming place in a busy tourist area. The staff was amazing — Tony and Randy made our experience even better by helping us upgrade to a bigger room with a gorgeous view. The rooms are super cozy and have everything you need. The bar with swings and the jungle-like atmosphere are just perfect for relaxing. Highly recommend — we’ll definitely be coming back!

Renovated mid '50s hotel 2 blocks off of the International Marketplace. Clean room, comfortable bed, good shower and I was pleasantly surprised at the excellent food in the onsite restaurant Heyday. Air conditioning units were upgraded in 2021. It was wonderful. No musty smell like you sometimes get with wall ac units in older hotels. Three story walkup building but I was able to secure an accessible room on the first floor so no problem. Property still has that '60s vibe with lots of bamboo trim. Staff members were friendly and efficient. Valet available for $45 per night and worth it because of shortage of parking in the area. Has a cocktail lounge in addition to the pool bar but I didn't get to try it. Nothing fancy here but affordable at approximately $100 less than other hotels in the area. Would stay here again.

Very nice and quiet hotel in the middle of Waikiki. I really enjoyed the pool view room on the ground floor. Great to sit out on the little table, have a drink or do some work on the laptop. Also nice to have a fridge and bar sink in the room. ||It is surprisingly quiet at night, I have stayed in multiple hotels in Waikiki and this is by far my favorite. No waiting on elevators, seat at the bar or table at the restaurant. ||All in all I really enjoyed the 10 day stay, will definitely return.

Absolutely Perfect Stay at White Sands Hotel! From the moment we arrived, White Sands Hotel exceeded every expectation. The staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and impressively well-informed — they made us feel at home right away. The rooms were absolutely perfect. Impeccably clean, incredibly comfortable, and wonderfully quiet — a true oasis. The location is ideal, offering both convenience and a sense of peaceful retreat. And let’s talk about The Swing Bar — the drinks were spot-on and the appetizers were absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. White Sands Hotel is a rare gem that nails every detail. We can’t wait to return! Highly recommended-The Cali Family 212❤️ Until Next time.

The White Sands Hotel has a perfect location in Waikiki, just steps from great restaurants, shopping, and the beach, making it very convenient. The rooms are decent, though there’s no elevator, which was a minor inconvenience. The lack of breakfast wasn’t an issue since many dining options are nearby. The staff were helpful, assisting with our luggage to the room. Overall, a good stay for its location and value!

Retro style hotel with decent rooms and a great pool area. Bed was pretty comfortable and it was quiet at night. Food was very good and compediletly priced. Parking was by a valet for $45 a day but worth it to save the hassle of finding a parking spot. It's a nice place to spend a vacation in Hawaii.

Love this hotel and bar! We come here for the awesome swing set bar for lunch sometimes on our days off but we actually got to spend a night here for the first time with their amazing kamaaina rate. We had the best time. Love the pool and our room was nice and cozy! Big shout out to Garfield at the front desk for making sure we had the best stay possible. We will be back again for sure!! Also love the Green Lady Speak easy bar hidden away for a late night cocktail.
