Attended their luau here that was booked thru booking.com during my recent Waikīkī stay. While the performers did a great job, I gave it 3 out of 5 stars simply due to the rain that had shortened much of the hula dancing, and I expected more for the price. Disappointed since if they know it frequently rains in Hawaii, they should've been more prepared & already had the canopies set up over our tables. Several dining options at this mall made me smile! I wish I had a much longer vacation to explore more of the eateries here, lol. The food court was decent, offering everything from Hawaiian malasadas at Penny's Waikiki Malasadas to popular spots like L&L Hawaiian Barbecue, Raising Cane's, Panda Express, and more.

We parked in this structure since we needed to go to one shop and then have lunch in Waikiki. Several levels of parking you can pay at the kiosk next to the elevators. Also restrooms on the first floor on the left as you exit the elevators. If you make a $25 purchase you can get a reduced rate to park by scanning your receipt ie $20 parking ticket becomes $6 for 3 hours.

The original IMP consisted of thatched-roof huts offering souvenirs, local crafts, and food. A major renovation in 2016 transformed the IMP into a contemporary shopping and dining destination while still respecitng its Hawaiian heritage. The banyan tree in the shopping center is really impressive. A banyan can reach a height up to 100 feet and spreads laterally indefinitely. Aerial roots that develop from its branches descend and take root in the soil to become new trunks. It's really a highlight of this mall to walk around this enormous tree. There are a huge number of well known stores here with something for everyone. We enjoyed the shopping but did not stay to eat here although there are a lot of options.

Just be careful because you can enter and exit from both King Street and Young Street. I usually enter from King Street because I know that I should slow down when I'm near the Old Stadium Park (on the right side of the road) which is across the street from Old Stadium Square. If you haven't visited Old Stadium Square, chances are that you will be able to find some good eats here when you do visit!

Parking here is decent thought you need to be aware and plan your visit during peak time and some are reserved so you must read and be careful parking in certain stalls as the Diamond Head building has a second floor with certain offices that has some reserved stall. Some 20 minutes stalls are super convenient for a quick dash in for some boba tea *yum!* and with a little patience you really don't have a problem parking here as in the evening the street parkings are available as well. Keeping the old as they welcome the new is a way to preserve some of the history Moili'ili has and it's truly a gift. Thank you!

I absolutely love walking around Waikiki, and honestly, I don't think I spend enough time here. I…read morereally should. If you're coming to this area, just be prepared to walk. Parking can be tough, and Uber is usually the easiest way to get around if you're hopping between spots. I've parked at the Honolulu Zoo before and walked everywhere I wanted to go, which works... until I get a little lazy and tired . I do wish they offered some kind of bike, scooter, or cart experience to make getting around easier. Full transparency: this review is coming from someone who isn't super fit, so walking can be tiring but despite that, I absolutely love the experience here. The nightlife is so fun, the live music is always a vibe, and I love the bubbles floating around at night. I enjoy wandering into shops to window shop (and sometimes actually buy things), and yes, I still smile every time I see a bunch of ABC Stores lined up. I fell in love with them when I first moved here. I don't come around as often anymore since I live on the west side of the island, but whenever I'm in the area, I really enjoy it. Walking around, taking pictures, seeing the beach, and just playing tourist never gets old.

Our hotel was situated on Lewers Street and I greatly enjoyed being on such a bustling street with good eats, high-end shopping, and lots of art & culture. They even have a free art gallery, frequent pop-ups of booths that sells local goods, and other fun and free entertainment. What really stood out to me was how easy it is to just wander here. No strict plan needed. One minute you're browsing locally made jewelry or handcrafted souvenirs, and the next you're drawn in by live music drifting through the open-air walkways. It feels lively without being overwhelming, like the perfect balance of energy and ease that Waikiki does so well. It also has that effortless day-to-night transition. During the day, it's bright, breezy, and great for a casual stroll or a quick bite between beach time. By evening, the whole area softens into something a little more magical: Music, people lingering longer, and the gentle breeze giving your nighttime stroll that movie magic. It's the kind of place where you say, "just one quick walk," and somehow end up staying for hours.

Ward was originally marketed as a pet friendly area but it doesnt seem like it really is anymore…read more I feel really bad for the people who pay so much to live around this area and ended up with broken promises in the end. some areas seem a lot more dirtier and stinkier than others only because of the lack of grass and i think small patches would at least help so our pets have space to relive themselves other than the concreate floor or walls. it's also a shame that the ward shops is closing down for another new condo. i really loved all the cute little shops that was in there, but it'll just be another giant apartment building that most locals aren't able to afford to live in. this review is mainly for the newer parks that was built near dean and deluca and the one across the street. yes, it is beautiful but i think it would be nice for them to at least make an exception to allow dogs on them on it when they throw events on those particular lawns. There was this poor lady in front of me that tied up her dog on the poles (but in eye distance). It's so hot out right now and the risk of overheating or even kidnapped is a possibility. I could never do that and leave my dog tied up even if its 10 steps away because it could just take seconds for my sweet simba to be stolen. However, they don't seem to mind if you carry them or have them contained in something like a bag tho, but i think thats a little unfair for people who have larger dogs and can't do this. I also did not realize that the park across with the bridge also doesnt allow dogs on the grass, but it seemed like it just recently happened when the newer park re-opened. I think maybe a good solution is to add more trash cans around and maybe doggy bags like other communities that allow pets instead of hiring security to enforce pet owners to stay off the grass. Please don't punish the pet owners that are responsible but come up with a solution that there can be at least a happy medium for everyone.
