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.

Outrigger Reef Waikiki located right on the beach and central to Waikiki. The hotel isn’t too big nor too small, big enough to have all facilities- great sized pool for guests it services. The resort has recently been furnished and is really high class. The Voyager 47 Club is well worth the additional cost and the staff in the Club were so inviting - big shout out to Teresa she was really accommodating and friendly. Thank you ❤️ The onsite ABC store is good for those souvenirs and snacks. We loved being located right next to Fort Derussy Beach Park - beautiful park and beach - beach is less crowded than some in Waikiki. The promenade along the park is beautiful and flat suited for wheelchairs or wheelie walkers for the elderly - path leads right along to Hilton Village lagoon - have a swim there and maybe an ice cream before you head back.

We took our 17 year old son to visit University of Hawaii and stayed at the Outrigger Reef.

I picked this hotel because it's on the beach, however, the little piece of beach that the hotel has is not very comfortable. You need to go a bit to the left or to the right to get a better spot. The pool is fairly small, but everything else was nice. The restaurant was excellent, overlooking the ocean. The food was pretty good and the drinks and desserts as well. Our room had a partial view of the ocean and a little cozy balcony, big enough to enjoy a morning tea or coffee from the coffe machine at the room or the Starbucks right in the lobby. Very clean, the beds were comfortable. the gym seems to have been renovated recently so everything looks brand new. We got a very good rate and that was a plus. Everyone from the staff were very nice and friendly. Read less

We just returned from the most spectacular stay at the Outrigger Reef Hotel. The room was spacious, incredibly clean and the location of the hotel, perfect. We added the Voyager/47 Club to our accommodations, and it was brilliant! Breakfast and pupu's were served daily and the friendly staff of Shyla, Karissa, Alana, Violet and Theresa, just to name a few, were so professional, kind and helpful. What a delightful way to start each day. Joe, Rick, Frank and Rey were always welcoming and well versed on local events. There was no request too large or small that could not be accommodated. The true Spirit of Aloha lives at the Outrigger Reef thru their amazing staff. Finally, don't forget to make a reservation with Lee Ann at the Kani Ka Pila Grille. Great food and the best Hawaiian music on Oahu....maybe the State of Hawaii. Just make a reservation and go...best decision you will make in 2024. Read less

A great experience! The staff at this hotel is amazing and very professional! Thank you Joy for the wonderful experience! Food at the Kani Ka Pila is very good and definitely worth every penny. I went with my friend and we stayed for 2 nights and it was so much fun!
