I grew up in Pennsylvania after just one trip to Oahu i became enchanted by the islands' majestic beauty, and needless to say, it has become a very special place to me. Like many, my family and I enjoy going to Hawaii to get away from the cold winters. We hope you enjoy your stay and we look forward to exceeding your vacation expectations! Best to All, Mahalo Donna, Jeff Jarrett and family. Stretching west from Waikiki, this district, along with Downtown, comprises the bulk of Honolulu's retail and business markets. Ala Moana Beach Park attracts swimmers and picnickers to its lovely setting, while just behind it, Ala Moana Shopping Center is a mecca for shoppers, thanks to its wealth of upscale shops and boutiques. The Downtown area is known for its office towers and historic sites. Aloha Tower Marketplace, set right on the harbor, is a gathering spot day and night, and visitors can tour such well-known locales as Iolani Palace and the Bishop Museum. As far as parking goes, you have several options. Parking is available next door at the Outrigger Reef, this is valet and is $38/day. Parking is available at Waikiki Shore Outrigger, however, they only have 6 parking stalls and are first come first serve basis for $35/ night (no advance phone reservations accepted). If interested, I would inquire at the time you call to let them know that you arrived into the Honolulu airport (phone number will be provided). If parking is not available at the Waikiki Shore, you can park at the Regency on Beachwalk Waikiki by Outrigger (always available) which is about a 5-minute walk from the Waikiki Shore. This is also $35/day. So you could unload your car, check in, then take the car to the Regency and walk back. It is easy to find but just be mindful that it is a one- way street. The parking lot for the Regency is behind the Italian Restaurant ‘Arancino’ and the Regency on Beachwalk. The restaurant has an Italian flag hanging which is a good landmark for finding their driveway which is located on the left hand side just past the flag. If you return your car early and are interested in a shuttle back to airport, you can go ahead and see the doorman at the Reef Hotel for airport shuttle service just let them know you are with Outrigger Waikiki Shore and unit number. The shuttle services are all independent operators not with Outrigger but they can call them for service. I do not know what they charge. More shuttle info below. You may also chose to utilize this service upon arrival. At the airport, across the street from the baggage claim area, are the Waikiki/Airport shuttle services as well as taxis. Let the driver know which property to drop you off (dispatcher is normally present to assist). Shuttle service-roughly $15 per person Taxi- roughly $50. MORE SHUTTLE SERVICE INFO Below is info on a shuttle service to and from the airport.
