The Lodge is a beautiful community center. I've attended many events here and love the area. The…read morelodge itself is a small area but very quaint and has a tender vibe to it. The walls are brick white, by the entrance you're able to set up a reception area, there are two steps and you are in the main area with the kitchen off to the left and a fire place as the focal point to the right. Multiple windowed doors leading out to the pool area. The Jacuzzi area is up a few stairs and several feet away from the pool. Large lounge area, bathrooms are very clean. The view is breath-taking when standing pool side. Lots of street parking. If you're looking to have a small intimate gathering, this would be the perfect place. Security can be seen doing their rounds, very secure. Attend a psychic event here, they created a beautifully serene environment. Also attended a passion party event and this venue blended well with that event too. Beautiful, well kept, stunning view, wonderful area and works well for any type of function.

We catered half our menu from the venue and I must say the food was good! The venue is nice and roomy. The seating at the bar area makes it flexible enough to host a sizeable party.

Fair warning though--the greens are no joke and definitely not the most forgiving for a casual golfer like myself . They'll test your patience real quick. What made it even better was getting out there with friends again, enjoying the game and the great atmosphere. And having food and drinks delivered right to you on the course? That's a game changer. Definitely worth the wait, and I'm looking forward to many more rounds here.

A large assortment of different types of foods both American and Asian fusion. We had the loco moco, a large portion that comes with 2 hamburger patties, 2 eggs perfectly cooked eggs, 2 scoops of rice and a scope of Mac salad. More people not playing golf eat at this restaurant so that should say something. What was being served next to our table rated this a must try again. And taste the menu.

This is so sad to leave a 3 star review because this course was my favorite course on the island…read moreand I've played EVERY course there is on Oahu, including the military courses. However, in the last couple years this course has gone down hill. The driving range mats desperately need changing out, a lot of them are worn down to the rubber underneath. The rakes near the sand traps are missing handles and the fiberglass is splintered. I will say the grass was great and the greens were really fast but I was still very disappointed in how all the other facilities are used compared to a couple years ago. The food in the restaurant isn't as good as other golf places near by either. The service is outstanding but the food is small in portion and honestly not seasoned well. The bathrooms are very nice though, the staff is awesome, and the amount of rain they have had to make the fairways and greens nice which is what keeps this place going in my opinion. I want it to be so much better! I live close by and this was my home course but am thinking about changing to another course due to Waikele's lack of care for the driving range, sand rakes, and food.

Okay, so you're asking why would you go to a water park or lagoon when there's so many awesome…read morebeaches in Hawaii and Oahu. Well the simple answer is because we're all looking for something new and different to do once in a while with family and friends. And that exactly why we ended up at Wai Kai. It was a chance to hang out with our kids and friends before they returned to school after the winter break. The obstacle course was a ton of fun, we took advantage of the other water activities too, and we also opted to get a couple cabanas too so we could all hang out. It was perfect for our group of 20. Some of the restaurants were closed the day we went, but the takeout food at The Lookout was delicious. We also enjoyed some cold beverages too. BTW, the Nalo Lounge is a great option for $25/person if you want to store your belonging and take a shower before heading to your ext destination. For local families, take advantage of the kamaaina rates. The family is already excited about going back when the kids are back home this summer.

My daughter wanted to come to the obstacle course with her friends. We showed up at 4pm on a Friday, they said the girls can't swim because they close at 430pm. We decided to come back at 1:30pm the next day to arrive and be told the entire place is booked for a private event. Don't waste your time. Go beach.

The building that this spot is in looks a little rough, but once you enter Kaeo Studios, it's a vibe! There are many businesses that operate in the same building so parking can be limited until 9pm. Our party was in the Trellis Room and the aesthetic is so cute! It's designed to look like a garden and is very spacious. This room can seat about 20/30 people and there is a separate little room for kids or people who don't want to be in the Karaoke mix hehe. There is no food served as it is BYOB and bring your own food. The service is always efficient and awesome. I am hoping to book my mom's party here this year!

Caller & spoke with the owners & scheduled for my husband to swing by & view. Whelp, lucky us, we have a great karaoke space in our hood! Online reservations make it easy to see what's available. We opted for the pergola room (teenagers bday party) which accommodates 24. Super cute setup, very spacious, private bathroom (it was kinda hidden!). We were allowed to being in our own food & drinks, & they were kind enough to allow me to have personal decorations put up before my daughter arrived. I can't tell you firsthand how the karaoke system setup is (the teenagers made the decisions for the night) but I do know the songs were submitted via their phones. There a QR code to scan, etc. Either way, there weren't any mixups with the songs, pretty smooth. They do have a one/ time charge of $3 per person, if I remember correctly that's like a clean up fee. They also offer some small snacks. Various rooms to accommodate all size parties! They're located in Westgate shopping center, upper floor (Thelma's Filipino food & Leeward drive in are downstairs). Parking lot is decent sized but can definitely fill up with the number of other establishments here.

They were prompt, professional, took the time to answer all of my questions, gave excellent advice, showed up on time, AND were the most affordable.

They were professional and organized and did an amazing job! Everything was perfect and I can't say enough good things about them. We weren't sure which DJ company to go with initially and were just looking through some recommendations. However, I saw Hawaii Events Unlimited at a wedding expo and decided just to email to see how they were. I'm so glad I did! Even though we were just looking for a DJ, they offer so many other services! So if you're looking for package deals, they would be really great for that also. They were super responsive through email and we even set up a phone meeting with one of their DJs, Nate. We were able to talk to him and he was so great, so that convinced us to book them right away. He listened to everything we wanted and totally understood what we were thinking. They also had a questionnaire for us to fill out which helped us with all our music choices. Hope, from the office, emailed us to keep us on track. We even had a final phone call with her to make sure everything was set. They were so great at communicating which made me feel so much better about the whole process. And the day of... AMAZING!! It was everything we had wanted. Music makes such a huge difference and it was such a great vibe! The music was just perfect, everything flowed so smoothly, they are soooo nice and easy to work with. What else can I say? Just if you need a DJ or any other services, I would look here first and see all the things they offer, and you can probably save some money too with packages. Great people, great company, great job. I'm so happy so thank you so much Hawaii Events Unlimited!!
