My friend and I stayed at the AWW from May 1-9 and had a great experience. We booked this hotel based on the reviews on his site and we were not disappointed! This is a great place to stay. Fantastic location close to everything - beach was a 5 minute walk, public transport right at the door and plenty of... more

Coming to Oahu for business for last 4 years... was referred to hotel by brother in law (also business traveler) ... was sorry we didnt learn of Waikiki Wave sooner! The staff and Mgmt teams are filled with the Aloha Spirit. The hotel is located in the heart of Waikiki behind Intl Mrkt Plc. On-site parking available. The hotel has... more

This hotel is overrated. We've just got back from our trip to Hawaii. We stayed at Aqua Waikiki Wave for 4 nights and I'm not sure if I would come back to this hotel again. The bathroom was very small, it was not clean and needed some repairs. The toilet bowl had nasty stains inside. The toilet seat was chipping... more

We stayed at the aqua wave in Feb 2008 as part of a San Francisco-Hawaii trip. We booked a suite, which turned out to be a room with 2 double beds in it. In my view a suite is a suite of rooms, ie a separate bedroom so we did not get what we asked for. The wirless internet was... more

This is not a large hotel but, it is newly renovated and a VERY SHORT walk to the beach. Your hotel is right next to the international marketplace. I would urge you to stay here. It is much less expensive than being directly on the beach but, it is so close it doesn't even matter!! We took our 3 children... more

Aloha Choctaw, Mahalo for rating the Aqua Waikiki Wave with #5 score! We appreciate when our guests share their experiences, but are so honored when our guests perceive the experience to be awesome :) Our hotel was renovated in October 2006 and I am proud that you see the hotel as "newly" renovated as we take pride in working towards...

I would go back..... clean room, not to expencive, right in waikiki, not to far from the beach. I stayed here for two weeks and enjoyed it very much. I have stayed in many hotels ranging from the Rits Carlton in Chicago, to the Econo lodge in Auburn Maine. This hotel was very nice and fit my needs pretty well.... more

My wife and I stayed here for the first part of our first visit to Hawaii in September of 2007, and were pleasantly surprised. It doesn't really stick out from the street, just a small sign advertises it. I like the aquarium behind the front desk, made for a nice touch. The staff was very friendly, and we were able... more

My husband and I have been going to Waikiki for anniversary every year for the last 21 yrs. This year, we consider our visit to be the best! Why you ask?? Because of our hotel experience. Needless to say, we have been in many hotels over the years some good, some terrible. Our stay in the Aqua Waikiki Wave was... more

We stayed here for 8 nights in a suite on the 14th floor. The location is right in the heart of all of what Waikiki has to offer. The staff was very friendly, especially the house keeper that was assigned to our room. There was some street noise but that just goes along with the location. After all there is... more

Going into my stay, I was expecting a great experience based on all of the good reviews that I read. Unfortunately, my stay there was VERY disappointing. The worst part about the hotel is the NOISE ALL NIGHT LONG! I stayed on the 12th floor and was still woken up multiple times during the night with street noise. You know... more

Aloha amcdonald0214, Thank you for acknowledging that the Waikiki Wave has comfortable bedding and that we are in a great location. Because (as you have stated) that you have read reviews on TripAdvisor, I am sorry that the noise factor due to our central location suprised you. Our intent of offering earplugs to our valued guests is to have this...
