Sheraton Waikiki Hotel, hotel in Honolulu, United States
The Sheraton Waikiki Hotel is a large beachfront hotel sitting directly on Waikiki Beach on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. The building rises high above the sand and offers hundreds of rooms, many with a private balcony facing the ocean, Diamond Head, or the Honolulu skyline.
The hotel was built in the early 1970s and quickly became one of the most recognized buildings along Waikiki Beach. In more recent years it went through a full renovation that updated the rooms and all of the public spaces.
The hotel sits at the heart of Waikiki Beach and reflects the resort style that has come to define this stretch of shore, with ocean-themed decor and Hawaiian artwork throughout the common areas. Guests can join hula lessons and lei-making workshops offered on-site, giving a direct connection to local traditions.
The hotel sits right on the beach and is easy to reach on foot from most parts of Waikiki. Visiting the beach early in the morning or late in the afternoon tends to be a calmer experience, as midday draws the largest crowds.
The hotel's rooftop infinity pool sits above the sand in a way that makes it appear to flow directly into the ocean below. From the poolside bar, guests occasionally spot sea turtles moving along the shoreline just beneath them.
