Steps from the sand on Waikīkī’s mellow Diamond Head side, The Twin Fin Hotel Waikiki delivers a front-row seat to O‘ahu’s surf culture.

Fresh from a major renovation, the hotel blends breezy design, panoramic ocean views, and an easygoing vibe rooted in the birthplace of modern surfing.

Guests can ride the waves with included surfboard rentals, learn from legends at the on-site surf school, or simply slow down and soak in sunrise-to-sunset beach life.

A touch of festive “Surfmas” spirit adds seasonal fun, but The Twin Fin shines year-round as a relaxed, ocean-loving escape.
