HOME IS WHERE THE OCEAN IS: HAWAII
Ahola friends!
Join us in exploring the beautiful Island of Hawaii! Upon arriving to Honolulu we immediately felt the island vibes with the warm weather and breezy air.
DAY 1
We arrived late in the evening and headed to the Sheraton Hotel Waikiki to get ready for food & drinks.
We decided to check out Yard House which sits conviniently in the heart of Waikiki and walking distance to our hotel.
What we ordered:
Ready to catch some zzzZZZzz’s we went back to our hotel.
DAY 2
Our room was spacious, clean, modern, WE LOVED IT!
In order to seas the day we woke up early to catch the sunrise and get ready for the day’s activities! We were able to enjoy a beautiful view from our full ocean view room.
After our island glam session we headed to Duke’s to fuel up for the day. One word. YUMMM!!
What we recommend:
If you are looking for great food and drinks this is the place to go! Their Lava Flow’s are refreshing and delicious.
Leaving us in complete FOOD COMA we had to take a power nap.
We wanted dinner and drinks so we picked Mai Tai Bar. Pretty drinks, yes please.
DAY 3
First thing in the morning we hit the beach of course! Waikiki beach is a beauty!
Ready to eat we headed to Hula Grill Waikiki for brunch.
Must-have:
As total dessert-aholics we HAD to have the famous Island Vintage Shaved Ice. Perfect for any hot, sunny day!
We ended our day by enjoying our hotel’s infinity pool (gorgeous!) Watching the sunset become one with the ocean and pool is one of the most beautiful sights to take in.
DAY 4
This was one of our birthdays: DORIAN’S!!!
Ready to enjoy yet another beautiful Hawaiian day, we spent our morning tanning in Waikiki beach.
Next we took a dip in the pool and sat pool-side enjoying the yummiest Piña Coladas!
After changing to these fun and island-perfect outfits we went out for some shopping and a very special birthday dinner for your lovely blogger.
Our trip was getting closer to the end and we wanted another round of Island Vintage Shaved Ice so this happened…
Then there was dinner. There was a surprise birthday chant for the birthday girl of course! The food was yummy as were the drinks and dessert. There was live music so that was a nice touch to our evening!
p.s. The Sheraton Hotel Waikiki was very attentive during our stay and provides a goodie bag for those celebrating a special occassion. Do we recommend it? No doubt.
DAY 5
Our last day arrived. We had a late flight so we woke up early cause there’s always time for adventure.
Years before we had gone to Lanai Lookout and we returned there this trip. Here you can truly appreciate the beautiful landscape.
Also there is a beach close-by to it. So we continued to explore in search for it. It’s name is Makapu’u Beach Park and it is worth EVERY mile you might have to drive to get there from Waikiki. It’s that perfect.
The time came to get on the plane and take these memories with us.. Hawaii will always be our little slice of heaven. One of our favorite destinations!
