Oahu is an exciting and dynamic island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Home to the famous Waikiki beach, filming location of the red-hot television show "Lost," host to world champion surfers on the North Shore and the happy little beach community known as Haleiwa, Oahu is a favorite tourist destination for travelers from around the world. One of the first things you will want to know when deciding to take a trip to Honolulu is "Where will I stay?" This article will take you through some of the more posh locations at which you can stay as well as introduce you to some of the more budget friendly accommodations.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

    Are your latest orders for leave? If so, military families and military retirees alike will enjoy the Hale Koa, a military owned hotel right next door to the Hilton offers all that and a bag of potato chips. At this family friendly military hotel, you can enjoy incredible contemporary and island cuisine at Bibas or kick back with the family at the casual Koko Cafe. You can even enjoy a colorful frozen drink from the Barefoot Bar at the adult pool, the family-friendly pool or while enjoying the ocean breeze just feet from the sandy beaches.

    Save a wad of cash by going budget. Yes, you can enjoy Waikiki on the cheap if you are willing to skimp on the room. How much time are you going to spend in your room anyway? The Waikiki Prince offers rooms for under $100 per night--and in some cases for as low as $60 per night! And you don't have to be nervous about the accommodations -- their TripAdvisor ratings tell it all!

  4. Step 4
    Turtle Bay Beach Resort
