Situated in the heart of Waikiki, this historic hotel is one of our top "bang for your buck" properties on the island, especially considering its location, history, and amenities.

Lotus Honolulu at Diamond Head
This sophisticated and serene boutique property is situated in one of Waikiki's most appealing neighborhoods. Away from the fast-paced environment of Waikiki yet still conveniently located near dozens of top sites and attractions, the Lotus is a most ideal property for newlyweds.
