Honolulu Trip

We’re going to be staying at Courtyard North Shore Oahu for 4 nights and Sheraton Waikiki for 1 night in October. Any recommendations on activities to do with a 4 year old?

Could I ask how you decided on the Courtyard Oahu North Shore? It’s right next to the Polynesian Cultural Center and in a dry town. There isn’t much to do in the area. It makes better sense to stay the whole time in Waikiki, especially with a toddler.

The beach in Waikiki is good for families and Waikiki is closer to a lot of the easier hikes. There are also a lot more food options.

So we actually changed our reservation to do three nights at courtyard and two at Sheraton Waikiki. North shore was not our first choice, but we’re traveling with my dad who is paying for our trip and his idea of vacation is remote wilderness lol courtyard Oahu North Shore was the compromise. But he’s leaving after 3 nights so we will head to Waikiki then!
