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.

  • Beachfront catamaran

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.

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.

Great room - bad view

The room we stayed in was extremely clean, had new furnishings and great amenities. However, we had a view of the building across from us that was about 15 feet away. We did not anticipate a beach view - but being that close made us keep curtains shut the whole time so people could not see in. It took away from being able to enjoy fresh air/sunlight. Otherwise - the location was right across from lots of shopping and dining. There ware 3 different bars/restaurants in the hotel - which had great happy hour specials!! ($3.50 for mai tais). The pool is set back far from the beach - so you don't get the hawaii feel if you want to be in pool.

Loved it so much we plan on moving here next year!!!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 10 days in March 2013. It is in a perfect location. We didnt even rent a car. You could walk to everything or take the bus. Free internet which was a really good signal. They give you a coupon book for a lot of 50% off things, which we used for breakfast in the hotel's restaurant "shore bird." It was an all you can eat for $16 a person. We got really full on breakfast then skipped lunch a few days. They have a pool and THREE hot tubs! You can not take alcohol out onto the beach though so we had to pour some into water bottles. sshhhh.When you walk out the back of the hotel, you are on the beach. The hotel was priced the same as the surroundng hotels. We absolutely fell in love with the weather, friendly people, and good food. We are looking at houses in a few months :)

There are so many restaurants within walking distance that we didnt even rent a car. Check your hotel for coupons and check groupon ahead of time (we used 9 groupons that week). We made sure to have a coupon for at least one meal a day and it was super easy and saved some money!

Hawaiian getaway

We had just come from the Ritz in Maui, so maybe this hotel had that going against them. I only booked this hotel because of the location, which was nice. There were plenty of things to walk to. There were also restaurants and shops in the lobby, which was very convenient. My main disappointment was the room. I booked a 2 double bed room, with a pullout, but when I arrived, they only had 1 king. They were sold out, so had no other rooms, which left us without enough sleeping space. Overall, for the price, it was just meh. If it's location you want, then go for it, but nothing special about the rooms. They were clean at least.

Great retirement present

I wanted to thank my dad for his many years of providing for the family and this hotel stay helped to show my appreciation. He was pleased at the the quality of the materials in the hotel room. As an engineer, he commented on the fine craftsmanship of the furniture and the quality air conditioner system (not the cheap systems found in other hotels). He's quirky, I know, but since he was overall very happy, I was too!
