Having the items delivered and picked up from our hotel was incredibly convenient. I chose Akamai over others because of the dropoff/pickup, the umbrella type, and the cooler type. The cooler is a hard case cooler that rolls on wheels, keeping our drinks nice and cold and easy to transport. We definitely got great use out of the rental and will reach out next time we are in Oahu! Thank you so much!

Using Akamai during our week in the Waikiki area made sense versus having to pay the exorbitant…read moreamount that the Hilton Hawaiian Village charges for lounge chairs and umbrellas. This way we could also use the 3 lounge chairs and umbrella we rented at Waikiki Beach and throughout our travels around the island to other beaches. It was easy and affordable. They dropped off the chairs and umbrella to our hotel and then picked it up at the end. Communication was easy, friendly and helpful. We'll definitely use them again next time we're in town!

This is only for the SUP rental. Location is prime if you're staying in Waikiki. Lots to do here…read more Prices are high as expected. Service is OK - just enough to get the job done. They won't take the SUP to the shore or bring it back if you're a off coming back. I love SUP but I'm little and I have a shoulder/neck/back injury so it is difficult for me to carry and I always have to ask someone to do it. I wish it wasn't such a chore for them especially since we tend to tip well (at least 20% even if its bad like this). No matter what time of year it is usually pretty crowded and hard to navigate around ppl. But if you can get out there, it is super fun and the waves are usually gentle. While staying at Moana or Royal Hawaiian we saw a monk seal in the waves swimming through the surfers. Other than that not too much sea life sadly.

No longer offering discount for multi-day rentals. Military rate increased to $50. The equipment has really aged and been neglected over the years without any reinvestment. The umbrellas are worn, torn, faded, and ripped. The chairs are worn and sagging with missing straps. The workers don't seem to care about much other than their screen time. I still recommend them, but it's a shame to see the decline in management engagement and customer experience.

When we came with family, we got some prescription snorkels and they worked great! Esae and Dee (sorry if I spelled those names wrong!) are always super friendly and helpful with making sure we get the right products and sizes on! If it's a busy season, make sure to reserve ahead of time. We usually just walk in but came during a holiday weekend once and they didn't have anything available and we had to run around to different shops to find fins. We ended up getting fins from a place in Waikiki that was much more expensive and they were unfriendly and honestly rude there, so we've been sure to make reservations ahead of time so we can pick up our things at snorkel bob's!

Quality/Quantity - 4 stars for equipment; do keep in mind these are rentals and get much use…read more Hilton gave us 3 credits for rentals a day - no hassles when we came here, actually very efficient. All equipment is bar coded for fast check out; no up-selling. Current equipment are: Paddle boards, surf boards, wakeboards, chairs, umbrellas, floatees, etc. Not sure if the scooters/bikes in front of their shop are theirs...? Atmosphere - Small rental shop on the Waikiki strip and the beach is literally across the street, so you don't have to lug your board everywhere, which I have seen. I am surprised that there are not more surfboard accidents from walking and carrying boards. Open 7 days a week from 7am to 5pm. Service - 6 stars!! Very professional and efficient. Actually generous! Hilton gives us 3 rentals a day - no hassles when we came here, actually very efficient. All equipment is bar coded for fast check out; no up-selling. In and out in minutes.
