Have stayed twice, once in January-February 2011 and just returned from another 2 week trip, January-February 2012. Malia Tower I stayed in the most recent trip seemed nicer/more modern, but either way the Hale Koa is a great deal. Can't beat the location right on the quieter side of Waikiki Beach and next to the huge Hilton complex. The amenities... More

Great location, great value, rooms well equipped, mine was roomy and had a great view. I cannot imagine anyone complaining about this facility. More

We stayed at the Hale Koa from Jan 17 to 21, 2012. Daytime temps were in the high 70's, nighttime temps high 60's. Winter clothes not needed! I highly recommend the MaiTais at the Barefoot Beach Bar. Delicious and the best I had anywhere. The beach itself at Hale Koa is long and broad. We used the towels provided by... More

This is our second time at the Hale Koa & couldn't have asked for a better stay. After a long flight, it was nice to be greeted by a smiling face during check in.

Ten years ago we visited the Hale Koa for our 40th Wedding Anniversary and I was almost brought to tears by the "Thank You Vet" comments at the Halle Koa. As a Vietnam era Veteran I was totally unprepared for that!! Now we are back for our Golden Anniversary celebration and the Hale Koa staff is even better. Nyong at... More

Location location location...that about says it. Situated right beside the Hilton Hawaiian Village at the gateway to Waikiki on the public grounds of Ft. DeRussey. As military retirees we are eligible to reserve rooms up to a year in advance. The hotel is run by contract by the Army Welfare and Rec system and pays for itself...therefore is not a... More

The only affordable convenient place for active duty/retired military/DoD to stay on the Beach in Honolulu. Clean, safe, the center of everything on the beach. Everything you need and much more! More
