Hotel Room Standard Category: $129 + $15 upgrades you to a Partial Ocean View Category
Partial Ocean View Category: $144 + $15 upgrades you to an Ocean View Category

From the urban-Hawaiian beach theme in the lobby to the vibrant tropical colors throughout the hotel, Aston Waikiki Beach is fun and full of life. Conveniently located, the Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel is within walking distance of the Waikiki Aquarium, Honolulu Zoo and historic Kapiolani Park. Guests can experience Hawaii regional cuisine and live entertainment nightly at on-site Tiki’s Grill & Bar. Or, explore the two main strips of Waikiki – Kalakaua and Kuhio Avenues – for shopping, dining and nightlife.

Regarded as one of Waikiki’s most popular amenities, Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel’s signature offering is Breakfast on the Beach, a variety of to-go breakfast items that can be packed in a keepsake souvenir cooler. Served pool-side daily from 6:30 to 8:30 a.m., guests can eat on the beach or take the cooler on the road while exploring the island’s activities.

Each guest also receives Aston’s free Aloha Book, which contains offers worth up to $2,000 in savings on dining, shopping and activities. The book, which doubled in value from 2008, also serves as a guide to some of the best culture, history, cuisine and attractions on the island.

Aston’s year-round “Kids Stay, Play & Eat FREE” program means children 17 years and younger stay free when using existing bedding and children 12 years and younger receive free admission at top island attractions and free meals at popular family-friendly restaurants when accompanied by a paying adult. Unlike other hotel promotions that encourage kids to play and eat free within the resort, this program allows families to experience a variety of the island’s activities and dining options.

While the show will not be ending anytime soon, the promotion is a limited engagement. Aston’s Front Row Seat to the Ocean is good for travel now through Dec. 23, 2009. May not be combined with other programs, specials or discounts. Prices do not include tax and are subject to change without notice. Blackout dates and some restrictions may apply.
