Arden Waikiki was one of the best dining experiences I have ever had. The food was absolutely incredible. Such unique flavors like nothing I’ve ever tried before!
When you think of Hawaii, images of pristine beaches, lush landscapes, and the tranquil sound of waves crashing against the shore likely come to mind. Nestled in the vibrant neighborhood of Waikiki in Honolulu, Arden Waikiki embodies these idyllic visions and offers a luxurious escape for travelers seeking both relaxation and adventure. Let’s dive into what makes Arden Waikiki a must-visit destination.
The space was so romantic and we had a beautiful view of Kapiolani Park & Diamond Head for sunset. The drinks were out of this world. We LOVED the Olena (an incredibly well-balanced whiskey drink with Vanilla and cinnamon).
