The hotel's slogan -- \"The spirit of old Hawaii\" -- says it all. The lush tropical flowers and carved tiki at the entrance on Beach Walk set the tone for this intimate low-rise hotel. From the moment you arrive, you'll be embraced by the aloha spirit: At check-in, you're given a pineapple, and complimentary Kona coffee and tropical juice are served poolside every morning. The concrete, hollow-tiled guest rooms feature kitchenettes and two beds (a double and a single or a queen-size plus a sofa bed), which makes the Hawaiiana a great choice for families (as does the welcoming, helpful staff). Each room has a view of the gardens and two swimming pools; some bathrooms are shower-only. Hawaiian entertainment is featured every week. The hotel is about a block from the beach and within walking distance of Waikiki shopping and nightlife.
