Savor the Holidays: Our Guide to Local Events and Shopping Hot Spots

 

Although temperatures remain toasty, the holidays are here in Waikiki! The palm trees are decorated and the sound of "Mele Kalikimaka" is in the air. We invite you to revel in the season, shop at the unique boutiques and markets along Waikiki Beach Walk, and even wave a shaka to Santa. Join in on the festive fun with these island-inspired holiday happenings, many located just steps from Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk.
