Did someone say free drinks? That's right! As a guest at Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk, you're invited to our complimentary evening reception where you'll feel like a VIP—every night of your stay. Join us for refreshing beverages, snacks, live music (select dates) and plenty of golden hour vibes from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. daily.
Imagine ending your day in paradise by lounging alfresco on the Grand Lanai, sipping a Mai Tai and listening to local tunes. These are the things vacation dreams are made of (and maybe why our guests keep coming back for more)! Let's toast to the top reasons you'll love our nightly happy hour:
1. Tropical Drinks! Order a Mai Tai (#1 Guest Favorite), Blue Hawaii or Rum Punch cocktail. Guests (21+) receive two drink tickets per person, per night of their stay, so you'll have a chance to sample a couple to find your favorite.
2. Expert Bartenders! Not only do our bartenders—Dennis, Keola, Maile and Ricardo—make a rocking drink, but they also have great tips for exploring the island.
3. Local Snacks! Nibble on complimentary snacks, including local favorites: boiled peanuts and edamame. There's also a rotating selection of fresh cut vegetables with house-made buttermilk ranch dressing, pretzels, Maui-style potato chips, house-fried corn tortilla chips and fire roasted salsa.
4. Upgrade Your Drink! Trade in your drink ticket for a discount on a premium drink at the Pakini Bar. Think: Piña Colada.
5. Swim at Sunset! The pool, whirlpool spa and children's pool are open during the evening reception. We just ask that guests do not eat or drink while in the pools or whirlpool spa.
6. Live Music! On select evenings, sit back and relax to the sounds of local musicians. The genres range from traditional Hawaiian to pop to R&B.
7. Mocktails! Avoiding alcohol? Order a Hawaiian Punch, Shirley Temple or Roy Rogers.
8. Chat with the Staff! Make sure to say ‘hi' to our evening food service team, Ami, Chad, Chelsea and Kiana. They have the scoop on favorite local restaurants and activities in the area!
9. Family-friendly! The evening reception is for all guests – including kids. They'll enjoy soda fountain refreshments like pineapple juice and fruit punch (no drink ticket required).
10. Fireworks! Our Grand Lanai has a peek-a-boo view of fireworks at the Hilton Hawaiian Village on Friday evenings around 7:45p.m./8 p.m. Grab a seat at the Pakini Bar for the best view.
