Honeymoon Stay
tim t on Dec 30, 2025
My wife and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express Waikiki for our honeymoon. The service and cleanliness of the property are top tier. As an IHG member, I always try to stay at one of their properties and this stay was no exception. The breakfast is amazing and offers a wide variety of choices and specials that you can’t go wrong with. Many hotels can often mess breakfast up, but this property nails it which is always an appreciated way to start your day in Waikiki before plying tourist. The hotel’s concierge, Brady, was especially a gem of this property. My wife and I had looked into booking an island tour of Oahu and Brady took the time and made the effort to really find out what we were looking to do, before selecting a company that met our needs. Thus far, this island tour with The Pineapple Experience tour company has been the highlight of our stay. Shout out to Brady and the entire staff for making our honeymoon extra special with their service and efforts!
Upgrade to a suite - thank me later!

Our first (hopefully of many more) stay in Walkiki. The open-air lobby is amazing. Standard rooms were cramped. They are so small, you can’t change your mind! However, the staff was so very accommodating, especially Ms. Mary, Mr. Roger and Mr. Sal. The second room was a corner suite and absolutely amazing. Even gave us early check-in, too! Gave my wife a birthday gift bag, filled with pineapple gummy treats. Breakfast was good, but tons of gnats. Pool located on roof area, and gets very chilly at night. Entire outdoor area is very cool. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay. The open concept is awesome.
