Steps from the sand and surf of Waikiki Beach is Hawaii’s first and only craft hotel, Waikiki Beachcomber. Discover larger-than-life art, local brews, and live music, all handcrafted by a carefully curated group of creative artisans, the Beachcomber Originals.
This group of local tastemakers includes photographers, artists, and designers, each making their mark on the reimagined Waikiki Beachcomber. Every guest room features a life-sized print by prolific surf photographer Zak Noyle, aerial art by drone photographer Vince Lim, and Hawaiian-inspired textiles by celebrated printmaker Abigail Romanchak.
Half the fun is discovering each visual treat for yourself – but here are a few more highlights:
- Margo Ray’s 64-foot wall mural
- Intricate hanging rope art by Marques Marzan
- Hand-drawn Floors of Flora murals by Erin Ibarra
- The Terrace of Modern Art (TOMA), a rotating monthly art series
Handcrafted brews
Something delicious is brewing here in Waikiki—at not one, but two, craft outposts. Hawaiian Aroma Caffe is the most-Instagrammed coffee shop in Hawaii, created by Beachcomber Original Jonathan Rotmensch. And Maui Brewing Co. owner Garrett Marrero, also a Beachcomber Original, is a founding father of Hawaii’s craft beer scene. His restaurant is home to artisanal, Hawaii-inspired eats and creative craft beers.
The sounds of Hawaii
Music is the final thread that ties everything together. In addition to weekly live music at Maui Brewing Co., the perfect vacation soundtrack welcomes every guest into the hotel. “The New Sound of Waikiki” is a playlist of original, slack-guitar rhythms crafted specifically for the hotel by acclaimed musician and activist Makana.
With the help of some of Waikiki’s top artists and influencers, everything from the guest rooms to the drink menu is a work of art. Book your stay at Waikiki Beachcomber to make your next beach vacation truly inspired.
