The Equus is one of the “Top Hotels in Oʻahu” on TripAdvisor. It’s family-owned and operated with a distinctly equestrian theme. Located within a short walk of Ala Wai Marina for sailing, Ala Moana Center for shopping and Magic Island, Hawaiʻi’s first Green Hotel is the perfect vacation spot in Waikīkī.

Guest rooms are decorated warm tones, with a variety of doubles, kings or queen beds. All rooms are equipped with high speed WiFi, HDTV and some feature an outdoor balcony.

Retail stores are located within 10 minutes’ walk of the hotel at Ala Moana Center. It’s the largest mall on the island, boasting a Macy’s, Saks Off-Fifth, Nordstrom and dozens of restaurants.

The Equus has its own bar and café, The Paniolo, serving hand-crafted artisan coffee during the day and cocktails in the evenings (try the Paniolo Punch)! Don’t miss the live music on Friday’s and Saturday’s.

Activities in and around the hotel are plentiful. Guests can enjoy splashing around in the pool or lounging on the deck in a cabana. Enjoy a horse-back riding experience in the stunning Hawaiʻi countryside, learn how to play polo or even book a beachfront wedding.

Guests also receive complimentary VIP tickets to polo matches for stays between the months of April and August – a unique perk not offered by any other hotels.

Don’t forget to add the Resort Fee US$22 + tax per day and the daily parking charge of US$30 per car per night.
