We should have stayed here on our earlier trips!
In the past, we've not been all that impressed with the hotel rooms on our stays at various hotels on Waikiki - but we've never stayed here at Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort before. We've been coming to Waikiki for about 20 years and we've stayed multiple times at the Royal Hawaiian, the Moana Surfrider and Sheraton Princess Kaiulani - and we've enjoyed the stays . . . but the rooms themselves are just not up to snuff. Poorly designed spaces, weird temperature controls, odd housekeeping, ancient funk in need of updating . . . there might be a great common area, but the (quite expensive!) rooms where we've stayed aren't as nice as a business hotel in flyover country. We've always kind of wondered about the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort (not a brand name we recognized, so we were hesitant to stay here) - we have been here for food and drinks since we started visiting the area, but only just now got around to biting the bullet and trying it out as a place to stay. Wow, are we glad that we did. Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort had none of the issues of the other hotels - it wasn't inexpensive (of course; look where it's located), but it hit the mark for us. Great and comfy space in our ocean-view balcony room - not fancy or updated, but not dated or creepy. Smashing housekeeping service (bell desk and front desk folks were great, too) with lightning-fast room cleanings and not a thing less than perfect ever. Great amenities Great location. The bed was a comfortably firm foundation BUT had a thick, soft pillowtopper that wasn't great for my back; also, the room could have used more bedding (a supplemental comforter) in this cooler season. No robes or slippers were provided. We're not talking about anything like a fancy place in Vegas with multiple marble bathrooms, but the Outrigger Waikiki Beach Resort gave us our best stay in all of our trips to Waikiki. (And I understand they're planning an update in 2025.) We plan to return.

Fantastic location but the hotel is crying for a makeover.
The Outrigger Waikiki Beach has the best location possible. Beautiful beach at the rear of the property and central Kalakaua Ave in the front. Duke's occupies a large part of the lower hotel level and is a famous Waikiki attraction. The staff is friendly and helpful. The Hula Grill on the lobby level offers a good alternative to Duke's for cocktails, meals, etc.. This hotel could be so much better with a makeover. Carpets are threadbare, furniture needs refinishing. The hotel basically looks shabby and uncared for. The $50 per day resort fee charged in addition to the room rate should offer additional amenities. Their free Internet is a relic. For $50 a day extra, they need to come up with additional perks to ease the feeling of being ripped off. We stay at the hotel strictly for the location.

Noise from Dukes below was awful
We had a nice time at the Outrigger Waikiki Beach during our 4 night stay except for the extreme volume of the music below our oceanfront room. We love to sit and enjoy sunset and this was impossible with the noise below at Dukes, even with earplugs. I took reading on my Apple Watch and it was 88 decibels. Not the Hawaiian experience I was wanting. Staff were lovely and the beach was amazing. Pool a bit small but this is to be expected in Waikiki. Rooms are outdated but we knew this beforehand. Beds were comfortable and the view was incredible. If it weren’t for Dukes below I would return. Unfortunately we’ll be looking elsewhere next time.

Beautiful location with lots of noise pollution and no sleep
Everything was wonderful besides the lack of sleep you will get. The music from Dukes restaurant downstairs kept me and my family up all night. This combined with the noise from the street performers and bars along the Main Street… to save up for 2 years just to get away and relax only to get little to no sleep during our stay was quite a downer.

Un mentioned charges at check-out!
We stayed at the Outrigger Waikiki beach resort over the Thanksgiving break 2024. It was a lovely hotel, definitely older (mildew/mold in the bathrooms) but still a lovely place none the less. One concern we have is that upon check in the agent mentioned we were Expedia gold members which qualified us for a $100 credit towards any restaurant at the hotel, an upgrade at check in which isn't necessary as all of our rooms are amazing, and early checkout if available and you will want to check on that closer to leaving. We got our keys and were on our way. The day before checkout we stopped by the lobby to ask about a late checkout as our shuttle would not be coming until 6 pm. The agent helping us said "let me look...ok yes yes here are new keys for you, they will work until 6pm tomorrow. Have a great day". My husband and I both said to each other..."wow that was so easy and how nice that they are fine with us staying until 6 pm". Then we got the bill and noticed a charge for $150 that said upgrade at check in. Before we left I stopped by the lobby again and to our surprise it was the same agent that gave us the late check out and keys. I pointed out the charge and asked what that was and she said "Ya, late check out...I helped you yesterday, remember?" Yes I do remember...you never said anything about the fee for checking out late... "Yes, I did, I tell you it was $20 a hour, I did, I did..." THE END...I show her the paper they gave me at check-in that mentioned the late checkout upon availability and she just scoffed, she would no longer talk, I paid it because what else can we do? She didn't say a single thing about any charge for late checkout and had we known we would have sat at the bar or at the beach and just brought our luggage. Super rude agent and very short with us as we were just asking what it was and why she hadn't said anything about that. I did email the hotel to let them know they should definitely mention this charge before giving it to people (I have given it a few weeks before writing this review) and I have had NO correspondence from them. Aside from that the hotel is lovely, its older but still functioning well. It is in the heart of shopping, so if you like to shop on vacation, this is your place. Reminded me of Las Vegas type busy... Very small pool with maybe 20-30 lounge chairs all super close together. If you didnt have one claimed by 8 am when the pool opened you were not getting one. We mostly sat in a little area just below the pool deck but before the beach that had a few loungers, it was fine, you could see everything you needed to or wanted to. If you proffered to sit on the beach they offered you two chairs and an umbrella for $100 A DAY. That didnt mean you had a great view though because they stack them in front of one another. I noticed a lot of people had gone to ABC stores and purchased their own mini chairs and umbrella (which is less than $100, and you could use it the whole time). I would also recommend purchasing a pool/beach float at ABC, they were super cheap and had an option to purchase them already inflated. We ate at the restaurants on site daily...enjoyed Hulas grill for breakfast and dinner and Dukes for breakfast buffet and thanksgiving dinner, it was delicious. My main advice would be that if you are a person looking for a quiet beach getaway or enjoys lounging at the pool, this is not the place for you. It is a busy, generally hopping place with people all over, music in the evening (I wish it was during the day too). I love watching the sunsets...amazing, you cant beat them!
