White Sands Hotel

Why We Like It

• A Strange, Exotic Beauty Since 1957: Built in 1957 and reimagined for today, our lush, tropical oasis invites you to drop in, tune out and embrace the Waikiki of yesteryear. The hotel’s 94 rooms and suites, exterior walk-up corridors, and private lanais make it a vintage gem suited for contemporary island life. Forget your routine and embrace the remarkable at our classic Waikiki walk-up hotel, where the tropical charm of old Hawaii lives on.
• Sundrenched Outdoor Pool, Courtyard and Pool Bar: Our lush pool area will take you back to a lost Hawaiian era, where you’ll feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of urban Waikiki. Grab a swing and dine al fresco at Heyday Pool Bar & Restaurant. Find yourself sipping on cocktails inspired by Hawaiian flavors and fruits paired with delicious bites. Join at daily happy hour for our favorite drinks and apps at discounted pricing. This hip, sundrenched hideaway is all about sipping Mai Tais and laying back in comfy loungers.
• Very Important Pooch: Our dog-friendly hotel makes it easy to enjoy the island’s many wonders with your furry friend by your side. All White Sands Hotel accommodations come with a lanai (patio or balcony) where pets can get some fresh air, and we are directly next to the Ala Wai Canal Trail – a 3.9-mile loop perfect for walking pets, with scenic views of the mountains, water, and rows of palm trees.
