Travel Note

Waikiki airbnb wishlist (1 bed- 2 guest)

I saved some places in Waikiki on Airbnb. Stay however long/whatever is convenient for you. Just a place to start :)

Shuttle

Waikiki shuttle to Kualoa Ranch

May 21, 2026 2:30 pm - 10:00 pm

Our wedding venue is about 45 minutes from Waikīkī, and we’ll be providing a round-trip shuttle to and from the venue with pickup most likely from Queen Kapiolani Hotel. The pickup spot is close to several parking lots if you'd like to park and ride, and it’s also walking distance from The Twin Fin and many other hotels and Airbnb’s nearby. While Uber and Lyft are widely used in Waikīkī and a convenient option to get to the shuttle pickup location, please note that the Kualoa area is rural and rideshare services are limited or unavailable to the venue at night. If you’re renting a car, venue parking is available, but feel free to relax, enjoy the party, and leave the driving to us. 😊

Travel Note

Turo (Car Rental Alternative)

Turo is a car-sharing app—think Airbnb, but for cars! It’s popular in Hawaiʻi and often more affordable than traditional rental companies, especially during busy travel seasons. You can rent directly from local hosts, sometimes even picking up right at the airport or in Waikiki. It’s a great option if you’re looking for flexibility and lower prices.
