Hale Koa Hotel is in a prime location oceanfront with spectacular 72-acre gardens and easy access to Waikīkī Beach. This hotel is primarily for military personnel and their families.

The hotel offers four different room types from resort view rooms to partial, ocean view and deluxe oceanfront rooms. Most rooms (except resort view) come with their own private lanai.

Pick up handmade gifts at the on-site Crafter’s Market and souvenir shops and choose from a number of dining venues for buffet breakfasts, snacks, drinks and evening meals. Bibas Courtyard Grill is a favorite, with menus showcasing Pacific Rim fusion dishes like Big Island Honey Glazed Garlic Baked Salmon drizzled with lemon garlic and Yamasa soy sauce.

Enjoy a refreshing dip in the Main Pool, a peaceful swim in the adult’s only infinity pool or make a splash in the children’s swim areas with a pirate’s ship and waterslides. Relax with a soothing Hawaiian lomilomi massage or work out in a state-of-the-art fitness center.

Resort activities take place each week at Hale Koa Hotel. Don’t miss the Aloha Friday Prime Rib & Seafood Buffet, the four-times weekly Garden Luau and Wednesday Magic Shows at the Banyan Tree Showroom.

A highlight of this hotel is the location. It’s right on the beachfront allowing guests to partake in numerous water sports and explore the night markets and entertainment nearby at Waikiki Beach Walk.

There is no Resort Fee at this hotel but remember to factor in parking costs. It’s chargeable at US$20 per car per day.
