Outrigger Reef Waikiki Beach Resort

Honolulu, Oahu

Virgin rating

The hotel

Enjoy an aloha-style welcome at the award-winning Outrigger Reef. You can take in the stunning ocean views, relax among the Polynesian canoe art and soak up the sun by the pool. In need of some peace and pampering? Look no further than the elegant Spa — we recommend the traditional Hawaiian Lomi Lomi massage. But if you like to be more active, why not set sail in a catamaran (keep your eyes peeled for spinner and bottlenose dolphins) or enjoy a paddle in the surf in an authentic outrigger canoe. If you prefer dry land, amble along the Waikiki Beach Walk promenade, stopping at a café on route, or take a hike to Point Leahi at the summit of Diamond Head. Back at the hotel, you can grill-your-own hand-carved steaks and fresh fish by the beach or dine poolside at Kani Ka Pila Grille, as you watch the live evening entertainment.

Stayed at the Outrigger Reef for business. Was a fantastic experience, this hotel has newer renovated rooms than other Outrigger properties.

Stayed at the Outrigger Reef for business. Was a fantastic experience, this hotel has newer renovated rooms than other Outrigger properties. Very convenient location with a very nice ABC store around the corner and plenty of food options nearby if you don’t want to eat on property. Not much beach in front of the hotel, but if you walk 1-2 minutes north you’ll have more beach and a nice park/pickleball & sand volleyball courts. I have to say the highlight was the housekeeping staff. I stayed on the 3rd floor and had Bonie as my host and he was the nicest housekeeper I’ve ever come across. Remembered my name during my stay and always wanted to make sure I had what I needed. Mary also worked the other side of the 3rd floor and she was an absolute delight in addition. I don’t usually tip housekeeping but since my stay was long, I wanted to make sure to show my appreciation because Bonie definitely made my stay extraordinary. Look forward to returning to this property in the future and will make sure to request his floor! Read less

The staff is very friendly and helpful, particularly Mary. The location is perfect, nestled around great food and shopping. You're right next to Yard House, great stores, just a short walk over to the iconic Duke's restaurant and Maui Brewing Comoany.

Everything was wonderful. The hotel was very clean. We especially enjoyed the poolside restaurant and entertainment. The nightly music as magical. Our waitress Liset was the best!! She made sure we were taken care of and were having a good time.

Lily, the housekeeping lady was the best!!! She was so nice and personable. She took extra steps to make my stay amazing! She was the most genuine person who truly cared about me having the best stay possible. I would absolutely book the Outrigger Reef again.

Love my stay here. Been coming here for the past 12 years and every single time it’s better. My housekeeper Agnes was the best!!!! Kept everything clean and organized in my room. They take care of the military as best as they possibly can without any issues.
