Renaissance Ilikai Waikiki Hotel Offers Family Fun in 2003

Laser-tag passes, a welcome basket full of family-style food goodies and amenities and a rental car are just a part of what the Renaissance Ilikai Waikiki Hotel has to offer families looking to have a little fun in the sun.

Three-night family packages start at $770 and include an in-room kitchen and a standard rental car. Upon arrival, families will receive a welcoming basket that includes four assorted soft drinks, six bananas, a dozen eggs, a loaf of bread, sandwich condiments, coffee and tea, dishwashing liquid and laundry detergent. Families will also receive four passes to Ultrazone, Hawaii’s laser-tag headquarters.

The hotel’s 260 in-room kitchens provide convenience and cost-savings for families. Each room is equipped with a full kitchen complete with a four-burner stove, microwave, refrigerator, sink, cookware, glasses, dishes, silverware and coffeemaker. Separate bedroom and sitting areas, including a large lanai, provide families with plenty of room to spread out and relax. Sofa sleepers make it easy to accommodate a family of four.

Fun for teens and their family, the high-tech Ultrazone is an inter-galactic battle arena for laser tag games. With rock formations, flashing lights, sirens and fog, this 4,000-square-foot outer space landscape is illuminated by black lights. Located on the lobby level, Ultrazone is the only interactive game of its kind in Waikiki. A video arcade, party room, refreshments and pizza are also available.

The hotel also features a torchlighting ceremony, a popular Hawaiian tradition, which takes place at sunset in the Ilikai’s open-air courtyard. Free Hawaiian entertainment is also available poolside, every Thursday through Saturday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Located at the gateway to Waikiki, the Renaissance Ilikai Waikiki Hotel is steps away from Waikiki Beach and is in walking distance to Ala Moana Beach Park, Ala Moana Center and the Hawai‘i Convention Center. The 783-room hotel offers a variety of meeting facilities, restaurants, two pools, laundry and dry cleaning facilities, a fitness center, a medical clinic, tennis court and 15 shops including a general store.
