Oahu Resort: Sheraton Moana Surfrider

Old world tradition and modern convenience merge in this deluxe oceanfront hotel. One of the original hotels on Waikiki Beach, over $50 million has been spent to restore this historical landmark to its original turn-of-the-century grandeur.

The "First Lady of Waikiki" is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1901, this is the original hotel on world famous Waikiki Beach and is home of the famous Banyan tree, which dominates the courtyard on the hotel’s beachside. This setting provides an ideal place to have lunch or cocktails while watching the sunset. The Sheraton Moana Surfrider is a perfect choice for those wanting to add a bit of history and elegance to their Waikiki stay.

Visitors recognize the Moana as offering the best of both worlds: a host of dynamic activities in the midst of a calm, quieter place reminiscent of a simpler time. With an elegant atmosphere attributed to the rich history of the Moana, the Sheraton portrays timeless romance and historical significance as "The First Lady of Waikiki." Guests will enjoy the serenity of the famous Banyan Veranda & Courtyard, with terraced walkways and an open-air courtyard overlooking the blue Pacific.
