Advantages: Big city Disadvantages: Not a beach holiday destination
...If Honolulu conjures up images of grass skirts, garlands and deserted beaches, think again. Honolulu is the cross-roads of the Pacific and a bustling international city. Skyscrapers dominate the down town skyline as they do in any other US state capital. Which is not to say Honolulu is a bad place to visit, just that it may not be what you expect. At Pearl Harbour you can visit the wreck of the USS Arizona, bombed by the Japanese. There is little good value accommodation in Honolulu. It is better to stay in neighbouring Waikiki.

Advantages: Variety of Shops & Restaurants, Beautiful Setting Disadvantages: None
...and delicious! It's great to go there for your lunch or evening meal if you are on a budget.
If you want to splash out, there are also some restaurants in the centre, including a nice Italian one, where we went on our first visit to Honolulu (sorry, I can't remember its name).
The Ala Moana Center is easy to get to. The first time we went, we walked from Waikiki (probably about half an hour's walk at a leisurely pace) and went through the Ala Moana Beach Park, which is also worth a visit. You can also get to the centre by bus from Honolulu or Waikiki or, if you have a hire car, the center has a large parking garage.
If you like shopping and eating or both, the Ala Moana Center is well worth a visit...I will definitely be going again on our third visit to Hawaii.......
