I know that alot of people have had a bad experience at the Cabana, mostly due to run ins with cockroaches, rude staff etc. My partner and I spent 10 days there, and we had a great time. Our room was large, had a kitchenette and was clean. If there were roaches, I didn't see any. The only interaction we had with the staff was when we checked in and when we checked out. The bottom line is this place is very inexpensive so don't expect any sort of luxury.

“Okay Place”

If you are looking for the Four Seasons then go there. The reason to stay here is to stay gay. Its a comfortable place with a pretty good location on Waikiki. You are a couple of blocks from a great beach, Diamond Head, bars and food. The staff were very nice and helpful and I was able to meet some nice people at their happy hour. I was traveling alone and this was really nice for me.

I liked it and I would stay here again.

“great place come back for a second look”

The Cabana at Waikiki

Apr 30, 2008

Thingsare really on the improve at this hotel, whether you are by yourself or in a group his is the place to stay.i have stayed in other hotels and paid the price, everyone is friendly and the hotel is small enough to know all their guests
they have made many improvements over th last couple of years, so come nd have a look, remmber it is what it is, it is not 5 star.
when i stay in a muli storey hotel i feel so closed in ,and you never meet anyone, it is so different here.
The other thing is it's a gay hotel and good on the team for provding a hotel for the gay community.
I ave found over the years the term gay friendly as so many hotels claim, just doesn't cut it, anyone can claim that
anyway see for yourself and on your next trip stay a night or two YOU WILL BE BACK

“Home in Waikiki”

The Cabana at Waikiki

Feb 23, 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

I have been fortunate in that since 1994 I have been able to "live" in Hawaii up to 7 1/2 weeks a year, making as many as 4 trips in one year. In that time I have stayed in 11 properties from one end of Waikiki to the other. Hands down The Cabana is where I prefer to stay. It is steps from the beach, good restaurants and a great gay bar. The gay beach is a short walk into Queen Kapiolani Park with plenty of "eye candy" along the way. I find the rooms spacious (by Hawaiian standards) and love the fact that when the sliding door is open along with the widows on the oposite end of the room the trade winds will blow through. I enjoy the separate seating area and my afternoon naps on the daybed. It is by far the quietest location in which Iv'e stayed. I cannot imagine staying in some mega-resort tourist trap facility with 100 kids peeing in the pool!

I would recommend this property to my friends---I have invited a couple to stay with me when they visit this summer!
