Little hidden wine bar just 1/2 block from the apartment. It's nestled inside the Sand Villa hotel tucked back by the pool area. Opens at 5pm and stays open well past 11pm or midnight, some times even later depending on the guests.

Cheap and fast eats for Vietnamese food. One of those hole in the walls types places where the wait staff speak somewhat broken English but the food is fast, reasonably price and very good. There's also parking out front.

THE HIDEOUT is the bar/restaurant inside the newest hotel in Waikiki, The Laylow Hotel, very boutique and super friendly. The food is fresh with a hint and flare of Hawaiian and Asian influences. The drinks are AMAZING and too delicious, you almost have to try them ALL! Ask for Cassandra - she's "PERFECT!" in her Irish accent. Best Service on the island! They have live music every evening.

It's a steep hike, 1000 steps, but well worth the climb to the top - amazing views for miles. On clear days you can see Maui. In the winter months, you can see wales and dolphins playing in the water. Go early, it gets really hot. Allow yourself 45mins to an hour to get to the top. Sunrise is spectacular -
