Outrigger Reef On The Beach
The Outrigger Reef on the Beach has an ideal location on the west end of Waikiki Beach, considered the quieter side of Waikiki and close to the military's beautiful Ft. DeRussey Park. This is one of the larger of the well-known locally owned Outrigger Hotels with 858 air conditioned rooms, many of which have a partial or full ocean view.
The standard rooms are rather small with small bathrooms and no lanais, and are in the process of being renovated. If the size, view and d�cor are important to you, opt for a partial or full ocean view. Amenities include alarm clock/radio, cable TV, with pay for view movies and Nintendo, coffee/tea maker with complimentary coffee or tea, direct dial telephone with data port and voice mail, hair dryer, in-room safe, mini refrigerator and much more.
There are three ocean front restaurants on the property, including the inexpensive Chef's Hut and the Shorebird Restaurant & Beach Bar where you can grill your own food and later in the evening sip on a Mai Tai while listening to some great contemporary Hawaiian music. For a memorable evening, make a reservation at the Outrigger Reef's fine dining restaurant, Ocean House, specializing in Pacific Rim cuisine with marvelous ocean views and terrific food in casually elegant surroundings. There is also room service available from 7 am to 10 pm daily and a Starbucks on the property for those who are early risers and need a quick cup of coffee before taking a stroll down the near deserted beach.
Property amenities include the beautiful Serenity Spa, where for a fee you can enjoy a variety of massages, facials and various beauty treatments. The Hans Hedermann Surf School offers an expert staff of trained surf instructors who can help you get up on the board for an experience you'll long remember. Outrigger Reef also features a very reasonably priced Catamaran ride where you can see the Waikiki coastline with the Ko'olau Mountains in the background for some unbelievable photos.
The Outrigger Reef has a large swimming pool with poolside bar and waiter service. The lobby is not only home to a number of retail shops, but also a daily variety of lessons and activities. There is a Fitness Center with weights, treadmills and step machines, or of course, you could just jog down the beach toward Diamond Head for an even more satisfying exercise routine.
Three really great complimentary amenities the Outrigger Reef on the Beach offers include the Island Explorer Kit, Postcards from Paradise (3 beautiful postcards per room that the hotel will mail for you at no cost) and their lovely twice a week Hawaiian Wedding Vow Renewal ceremony.
With a minimum 3 night stay, every child from the ages 5 to 10 receive a complimentary Island Explorer Kit that includes a 2 part workbook, Friends of the Reef Adventure Guide and Let's Explore Hawaii Guide, backpack, sunglasses, pen and binoculars. The Guides explain how to conduct ecologically-safe explorations and much more.
The Hawaiian Wedding Vow Renewal ceremony is held every Tuesday and Friday morning at 8 am on the beach. The nondenominational Hawaiian ceremony is conducted by a practicing Kahuna (priest) who welcomes couples with a traditional Hawaiian chant, leading them to the water's edge to be honored with a hula and serenaded with Hawaiian song. Couples are blessed with a sprinkling of sea water then recite their vows in Hawaiian, followed by the traditional Hawaiian wedding song with hula.
Note:Outrigger Reef on the Beach lobby renovations will commence on September 1, 2006 and run through August 31, 2007. The repositioning of the Outrigger Reef requires a completely new lobby, front desk, entrance/portecochere, restaurant and shops. The project will take place in phases throughout the year long period. Outrigger will do their best to minimize and inconvenience to their guests.
