Fodor's Expert Review Aqua Oasis
320 Lewers St., Honolulu, Hawaii, 96815, USA
An open-air lobby of Italian marble, a koi pond, hanging egg chairs, and a guava smoothie greet you on arrival at this hideaway a five-minute stroll from Kalakaua Avenue through one of the many public-access ways to the beach. The property's two towers offer nearly 100 standard rooms and junior or one-bedroom suites, some with small kitchen areas. All accommodations have a refrigerator, soaking tub, slick audio-entertainment systems, and free Wi-Fi. Request a room close to the top of the hotel's 11 stories if you want to see the ocean from your lanai. A limited continental breakfast on the lobby veranda is included. Aqua hotels partners with Island Grocery Service, which lets you shop for groceries online and have them placed in your guest room ahead of time.
