Oahu Vacation Rentals

<div class="aboutUsText"><p>Oahu is a dynamic and vibrant island with intriguing cityscapes, pastoral countryside and world famous beaches. Waikiki on the south shore is a gathering place for people from all around the world and nearby is downtown Honolulu with great restaurants and a storied past visible in all the historic buildings. Oahu's lush windward side is towered over by the steep and verdant Koolau mountain range and home to more great beaches including the water sports playground of Kailua Bay. Oahu's north shore has a string of beautiful beaches and is one of the world's premier surfing destinations. Oahu is bustling with activity yet still you can find remote beaches where you swim in the azure waters, relax to the sounds of the waves rhythmically lapping at the shoreline and doze off in the shade of a palm tree.</p></div>

<h3>Things To Do</h3>

<p><span class="aboutTextRight"></span>Waikiki is more than a place, it's an experience! Take a swim at the iconic Waikiki Beach and stroll down Kalakaua and Kuhio Avenues for great shopping, dining and entertainment. Visit Pearl Harbor in Honolulu to see the USS Arizona Memorial, Battleship Missouri Memorial and the Pacific Aviation Museum. A new Pearl Harbor Visitor Center enhances the experience of learning about the infamous December 7th 1941 attack that brought the US into World War II. To beat the crowds to this popular attraction go early before the tour buses arrive. The Bishop Museum in Honolulu is another great way to learn about Hawaii's past and includes a Planetarium with programs for kids. The Waikiki Aquarium is a fascinating place to learn about Hawaii's marine life with exhibits including coral reefs, sharks, eels and a touch tank for kids. A departure from city life is found in Oahu's many botanical gardens such as Senator Fong's Plantation &amp; Gardens where you can take a guided tour through forests of native and Polynesian-introduced plants, tropical fruits, ferns, palm trees and fragrant blossoms. Kids love the Dole Plantation in Wahiawa with its giant Pineapple Garden Maze which covers three acres and includes 2.5 miles of paths creating a challenging labyrinth to navigate. Other botanical gardens include Hoomaluhia in Kaneohe and Koko Crater Botanical Garden (yes, it's in a crater!) in east Oahu. The Nuuanu Pali Lookout is about five miles from downtown Honolulu and provides stunning views of the windward (east) shoreline including Kailua and Kaneohe. Visit Kailua Bay for a variety of water sports in a well-protected bay and enjoy one of Hawaii's prettiest beaches nearby at Lanikai Beach with its crystal clear water and pure white sand.<br><br>On the north shore you can visit world famous surfing spots like Banzai Pipeline and Waimea Bay, hike through a tropical rainforest and go snorkeling at some of the island's most pristine beaches.

<h3>Nearby Beaches</h3>

<p><span class="aboutTextRight"></span>Beautiful beaches are found on all sides of the island of Oahu with some better than others for particular activities including snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, windsurfing, surfing stand up paddle boarding or just relaxing on the sand and enjoying a seaside stroll. Waikiki Beach is a 3-mile stretch of golden sand fronted by Kalakaua Avenue and its high-rise resorts and hotels, shops and restaurants. This is a great place to take a surfing lesson, ride in an outrigger canoe or go for a swim. Just east of Waikiki is Hanauma Bay, Hawaii's most popular snorkeling location where fascinating fish and other marine life thrive on a coral reef in a submerged volcanic crater bordered by a large, sandy beach. For more fun in the water visit the Kailua Beach on the windward (eastern) shore. Many ocean activities take place in the relatively well-protected waters of the Kailua Bay. Nearby is the picturesque Lanikai Beach with powdered-sugar sands ideal for sunbathing and crystal clear water perfect for a day in paradise. Offshore are the scenic Mokulua Islands making this a fun area for kayaking.</p></div>

<h3>Restaurants</h3>

<p><span class="aboutTextLeft"></span>Oahu has an abundance of great restaurants from Honolulu and Waikiki on the south shore to Haleiwa town and Turtle Bay Resort on the north shore and Kailua on the windward side. Take advantage of all the fresh local fruits and vegetables at the Farmers Markets, and make sure to try shave ice, plate lunches and visit a shrimp truck. Luaus are a great place to indulge in traditional Hawaiian fare including poi and pork laulau. The Royal Hawaiian Center in Waikiki offers eating choices that vary from fine cuisine to hot dogs and burgers. Around sunset is a great time to dine and listen to live music at various venues like the Waikiki Beach Walk and the numerous hotels and resort bars and restaurants along Kalakaua Avenue. In Honolulu, Alan Wong's serves up delicious Hawaiian regional cuisine. Wong, who is one of Hawaii's premier chefs and a pioneer of the cuisine, creates such delicacies as pit-roasted kalua pig, Kona lobster and nori-wrapped tempura ahi. For local home-style cooking try Kakaako Kitchen, on Ala Moana Blvd. in Honolulu, known for its trademark styrofoam plates, budget prices, multi-ethnic entrees and hearty helpings. Roy's in Hawaii Kai is the flagship restaurant of famed Hawaii chef Roy Yamaguchi and known for its "Fusion Cuisine" featuring the freshest seafood and an open kitchen where you can see the culinary artistry first-hand. Ola is located seaside in an open-air beach pavilion literally on the beach near the Turtle Bay Resort on the north shore serving up contemporary island cuisine dishes such as ahi and lobster poke, and open for both lunch and dinner.</p></div>
