  • The Continental, also known as Continental Surf, is a low end budget hotel managed by Aqua. It is located on Kuhio Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares in Waikiki, within the blue area of our Waikiki map and within a relatively short walk to Waikiki beach.
    It was originally built in 1979, it has 18 floors, a fair size lobby and front desk on the ground floor. No pool or other amenities are present in the building. The hotel has been maintained all these years but not major renovations has been performed lately.
    Like all Aqua Hotels, the Aqua Continental hotel is a gay friendly facility that welcomes gay men, lesbian, bisexual, trans gender and straight.

What we like about this hotel:............................(Back to top)

  • The location is very desirable and so is the proximity to the beach.
  • All rooms have a microwave oven and central AC.
  • For a hotel in Waikiki, it has plentiful parking, that is covered and within the hotel property, it is expensive but available. Parking is a priced commodity in the area.

What you may not like about this hotel:............................(Back to top)

  • The biggest problem with these low end, low quality budget hotels is that due to the downturn of the economy, for a few dollars more, depending on the season, you can get a 2 or 3 star hotel and the difference in quality, service and hygiene between a budget and a 2 or 3 star hotel is HUGE.
  • The rooms are way too small for most people, in fact these are the smallest rooms that you will find in Waikiki, so small that you barely have enough space for either one double bed or 2 single beds. most people find it small for one person, let alone for two.
  • None of the rooms have balconies, it would not be so bad if the rooms were more spacious but when you have a small room and no balcony, the combination may be a little too much.
  • The hotel sits on a "T" shape intersection with a traffic light on one of the busiest avenues in Waikiki if you need to stay in this hotel, you may want to request a unit away from the street to try to minimize traffic noise.
  • Parking is available at a price but make sure that the vehicle is not very tall because clearance is only 6 feet.
  • Based on your particular needs and the objective of your trip, this hotel may have other pros and cons that you should consider, call us at (808) 946-1216 for more information.
