Looking for a fine boutique experience without the price gouge of the big box hotels of Kalakaua Avenue?

Then look no further than Vive Hotel Waikiki. From the moment you enter, service is at your fingertips and style pervades the entire hotel from the decor to the wall color to the flooring and even a clean fresh scent. (Fun Fact: I learned that the GM hand-selected all of the features and decor. Attention to detail is apparent at Vive!)

Check-in is a tropical breeze as you are provided white cloths to wipe your travel-weary hands and as you sip complimentary pineapple juice. The refreshment continues as you receive your key with your WiFi passcode already on your key pouch.

There are two elevators to take you to your room. Once you enter your room, you'll discover smart furnishings with clean lines and intelligent storage. Some rooms are larger than others but no matter what you'll find the right spot to put your things. You may also appreciate the Korean toilets which have more buttons and features than I would ever need...but it's there if you wanted!

A nice feature is that complimentary breakfast is served from 7-930AM every day. Includes tropical fruits, pastries, croissants, coffee, tea, lemon water, and pineapple juice. A great way to start your day!

Parking is available for a fee but if you're staying in Waikiki and not traveling around, then you don't even need a car because Vive is conveniently located to all of the beaches and spots you plan to visit. Also, you can get beach towels, mats, and chairs for free every hour of the day.

I highly recommend Vive Hotel Waikiki. Price, location, service, and attention to detail make me a soon-to-be-return-customer.
