Kalama Tract

Lush tropical gardens and swaying palms line the quiet streets, creating a perfect base for beach days, kayaking adventures, or exploring the nearby Kawainui Marsh.

Most accommodations are vacation rentals with private pools and tropical gardens, offering a genuine slice of island life with easy beach access.

Learn more about Kailua

Turquoise waters lap against Kailua Beach's powdery white sand, creating a postcard scene that locals somehow take for granted. Kayak to the twin Mokulua Islands offshore, where turtles bask on rocks with the nonchalance of sunbathers. The Lanikai Pillbox Trail rewards a moderate climb with panoramic views that explain why Obama chose this neighborhood for his winter retreats. Kawainui Marsh offers a different kind of beauty, with ancient fishponds that gave the town its name ('two seas' in Hawaiian). After swimming, the shave ice stands along Kailua Road provide rainbow-colored relief from the tropical sun. For a less-crowded experience than Waikiki, Kalama Beach Park offers the same perfect waters without the tourist crush.

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Was able to enjoy some great weather after the Hurricane and before the tropical storm. The Hotel is well maintained and they are updating individual Towers to stay relevant. We stayed in the Rainbow tower and I have no complaints. It's been refreshed and was more than adequate...very clean. I generally don't take room cleaning when I'm staying just a few days....only towel service and they were accommodating to whatever you needed for the room. My only complaint is that at the check-in/out lobby, I waited 10+ minutes to checkout due to few staff on duty. Managers walked around when called on issues and then disappeared but should have taken a kiosk to help customers in line. I wanted a printed receipt before leaving of the final bill but opted for checkout on the app. Took 3 days to get final bill and only the 1st page was posted not the entire bill. This was the case for both rooms I booked. Fortunately, the afternoon before departure, I asked for a preliminary bill and the credit card charge was within pennies of the preliminary bill. Finally, parking is outrageous...no reason whatsoever to charge $70 per day for parking."
