Ocean House - Refurbished in 2002, this oceanfront dinner-only restaurant resembles a gracious plantation house. The interior is all wood painted gray and white, and furniture is dark wood. The menu features Hawaiian-accented food, including prime rib slow-roasted in Hawaiian salt.

Shorebird Beach Restaurant & Beach Bar - Situated along the beach and offering a view of Diamond Head, this open-air place serves a bountiful buffet breakfast, lunch, and "broil-your-own" choices at dinner. The bar jumps at night with live entertainment.

Pool Terrace Bar - A big-screen television is turned to the Big Game at this spot adjacent to the pool, while drinks and snacks are served.

Aloha Lobby Lounge - This is where people gather in the evenings for a tropical drink and Hawaiian entertainment, while the waterscape adds soft background sounds.

Amenity highlights: One step from the hotel and guests' toes land in Waikiki Beach's light-colored sand. If that doesn't suit, there's the large kidney-shaped pool, the huge flagstone sundeck, the large family spa, two adults-only spas, and a poolside bar. Just off the sundeck, the full-service, 4,500-square-foot Serenity Spa specializes in exotic Hawaiian treatments. A waterscape sends water burbling over lava rock and through a lush tropical garden, soothing by sight and sound.

Insider tip: All OHANA and Outrigger hotels in Waikiki offer interchangeable hospitality. Guests at any hotel are invited to enjoy dining, entertainment, and facilities at the other hotels while charging to their rooms. Exceptions are that the pool at The Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach is reserved for that hotel's guests and that the fitness center at this hotel is reserved for hotel guests and for Outrigger Waikiki Shore guests.

Bonus tip: Little booklets titled "Outrigger's Best of Oahu" are widely available on Waikiki's streets. But only those given to OHANA and Outrigger hotel guests contain coupons for dining and shopping discounts.
