Oahu

Plan your next trip to Oahu with the Oahu Vacation Guide

You’ll never be at a loss for things to do on an Oahu vacation. There’s something for every age, interest, and budget. Below Diamond Head Crater, you’ll find the heartbeat of the island, Waikiki Beach. It was once the playground for Hawaiian royalty… and now you. Waikiki’s legendary shoreline offers everything from surfing and sailing to lounging and luaus. If you want to make it a Honolulu vacation right on the beach, Waikiki Shore is ideal. It’s the only oceanfront condominium on Waikiki Beach and the perfect base camp for anywhere you want to go on Oahu. For those wanting a Honolulu vacation that's more in the heart of Waikiki, Hokele Suites Waikiki is the answer.  Stay at any Castle property in Waikiki, and receive a FREE kid’s admission to popular Sea Life Park Hawaii.

Nighttime in Waikiki begins at sunset with a torch lighting ceremony and a blow of the conch shell. As the sky’s kaleidoscope of colors slowly melt away, dinnertime approaches. Dine on fresh island flavors in some of the finest Honolulu restaurants, then catch a hula show, hit Waikiki’s nightclubs, or just relax with a cocktail and listen to some sweet Hawaiian melodies. Most Honolulu vacation spots have terrific activity, dining, and exploring options, but you’ll find Castle Hotels & Resorts has the most. With so much to do, there really is no wrong choice. It’s no wonder Oahu is the most visited of the Hawaiian Islands, earning the title “Hawaii’s Gathering Place.”
