Three friends and I stayed at the Aqua Waikiki Wave in Honolulu, HI for 5 days at the end of September. We sought out this hotel after arriving in Waikiki to find that the accommodations we had booked online for the Hokele Suites were just NOT acceptable. Thankfully, the Aqua more than made up for the dissappointment of the Hokele... more

Just back in Sydney from a 10 night stay at the Wave from 24 Sept to 5 Oct. The hotel is in a perfect location - right where you want to be on Kuhio Ave, beside great shopping, bars & bus stops. You just step out of the door & you're in the middle of everything. The local gay bar... more

I am over 60 years old and part of my "bucket list" was to take my grandchildren to Hawaii. I have stayed at the Aqua Wave way back to when it was the Aston Coral Reef in 2001. The Aqua Wave has been my home away from home for three years now and we are already planning next years trip.... more

Friends and I met for a vacation and we stayed at the Aqua Waikiki Wave for five nights in July. We had an enjoyable stay. The hotel was clean, which we find high important, the staff was cordial, and the location was fabulous! We did not find the hotel particularly lousy, as others reviewers have stated. The hotel is right... more

We chose to stay at this hotel with the great reviews we read from a few places. We stayed at this hotel before and after our trip to the Big Island and we stayed at 2 different rooms (both on the 14th floor - total of 15 floors). The staffs at this hotel were very friendly and helpful. We even... more

The only thing this hotel has going for it is that it is only one block from the beach. Even so, there are plenty of other places to stay that are just as close or even closer. While the room itself was adequate, don't expect to be spoiled. The building is old and leaks - one morning they had water... more

Made a rez for one room for three nights. They charged my cc immediately for one night as a deposit. Cancelled the rez fifteen days before check in date, way in front of the 24 hour cancellation deadline. Still holding my hand on my butt waiting for the refund of the "deposit". Of course they say they've processed the refund... more

I originally had the opportunity to stay on a friends sofa but thought after an 18 hour journey from the UK i would be better off booking this hotel for the first 2 nights in hawaii after reading previous favourable reviews. As you can imagine i was some what tired when i arrived and do not consider myself to be... more

Mahalo to Aqua Waikiki Wave for a great weekend! My girlfriends and I took a long weekend to go shopping and we had a great time. We booked the alohasuite and it was perfect for us. I wished the room had 2 bathrooms, but it was okay. The room was clean and our maid Florida treated us like queens! Special... more

My husband and I just got back from our stay in Waikiki!! We were there for 5 days/4 nights for our good friend's wedding. We are a young married couple without children. We decided to stay at the Waikiki Wave because it was considerably cheaper than the beachfront hotels. Boy am I glad we stayed at the Wave!! Our room... more
