Hawaii's endlessly beautiful Waikiki Beach (Updated August 2017)
Hello,
This time, I’d like to share about my trip to Hawaii in April 2014.
(This is an update from August 2017.)
The photo shows Waikiki Beach, taken from our hotel room.
The ocean was a deep blue, and the whole atmosphere was very peaceful.
We stayed at the Sheraton Waikiki (located on the far right when facing the ocean), using a JTB tour package.
We splurged a bit and reserved an Oceanfront room
If you book a lower grade room, you may end up only seeing the neighboring hotel or be placed on a lower floor with no view.
There was also a poolside lunch (more like a snack buffet—with unlimited yakisoba, rice balls, etc.)!
As expected of JTB, they had even set up a special tent for it.
In the evening, they offered free-flow snacks and alcohol, including beer.
We really made the most of it, enjoying everything from our mid-level floor room.
These kinds of popular tourist spots among Japanese people can be a bit pricey, but…
I realized that using a major travel agency like JTB actually saves money and effort in the long run.
Coming from someone who used to specialize in budget travel, that was quite a realization.
We spent most of our time at the hotel pool, which was directly connected to the beach—
so we could come and go from our room in swimwear. It was incredibly convenient.
And here’s a photo of an energy drink!
They say the American formula is different from the Japanese one, and supposedly gives you more of a boost...??
