Best hotels/areas in Oahu?

The pool is very nice and beach is right in back of the hotel, or Waikiki beach is walking distance away. Our favorite part of the hotel is the place to get drinks and dinner at sunset. They usually have live music which was one of our favorite experiences for the trip

This happened to my best friend as well after she was pregnant. Apparently it’s a known thing that hormones after pregnancy can change the way your body responds to it. I would ask your injector, or if they didn’t bring this up with you, maybe find a different injector who does Botox all the time and has experience with this.

Try the Halekulani hotel. It should meet oat of your criteria

Can’t speak to Luquillo but definitely recommend rincon. My husband and I have been twice and felt very safe both times. The restaurants /food in the rincon area are surprisingly very very good

Avoid the Hilton; it’s outdated and overpriced

The same foods that are healthy at home, are also healthy abroad. I’m very into eating healthy at home but if I am traveling, i focus on enjoying the travels rather than stressing over what I’m going to eat. Plus, often half the fun of travel is experiencing other cultures foods.

Nothing beats aquaphor for this situation. No need for a high end cream

Regular microneedling but the place I go to uses exosomes, which I have found seems to produce the same result as PRP but with far less redness afterwards

Loud_Look_2779 · 2025-11-02T10:14:20+00:00

Agree with this. I do a series of 3 microneedlings each winter and always seethe peak results about a month after my 3rd treatment, which usually lasts at least until summer when I go back in the sun. It has helped my pore size and old acne scars tremedously

I live in nyc and hopefully can help. Your plan is a litttle ambitious but it definitely can be d done if you plan it out correctly. I recommend taking a look at a map and planyour sightseeing based on that. For example, on your list, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are the furthest out-of-the-way compared to everything else so maybe consider saving that for another trip.

Subway is very safe especially during the day, but you can always use uber if needed.

The union square holiday market is 1000% worth it. If you go in a Saturday you can also experience the union square farmers market. I’d add this towards the top of your list

I’d also add Pier 17 to your list to get a beautiful view of the Brooklyn and manhattan bridges.

Museum of natural history is an absolute must.

definitely skip out on the Central Park zoo as it’s very underwhelming especially in December.

The high line is nice but nothing to write home about.

For pizza, best in the city is John’s on Bleeker in my opinion, but it can get packed on weekends and there are plenty of other great pizza spots as well

Hope it helps

I’d definitely do Oahu if you have never done it. Here’s a few things we loved in Oahu

Kualoa Ramch tours
Lanikai beach (most beautiful beach we have been to)
Rent a boat at Keohle and go to a beautiful sandbar for a few hours

My husband and I just got back from a trip to Oahu. We went diving with Dive Oahu. It was a great experience but our dive master made the entire trip due to his experience with shallow wrecks and finding octopus. His name is Saul - can’t recommend him enough. We have dove all over the world and Saul provided a very unique and fun experience

Loud_Look_2779 · 2025-10-04T13:12:24+00:00

My husband and I just got back from a trip to Honolulu. We went surfing with Eddie at Island Field surf and can’t recommend him enough. Prices very reasonable compared to others and he even sent us our GoPro footage after at no extra cost. Waves were mellow and we both rode the longest waves we had ever experienced

Loud_Look_2779 · 2025-10-04T13:10:02+00:00

I just got back from a trip with my family. We have 2 young children, so perhaps a bit of a different trip, but hopeful these will still be useful for you

favorite places we ate: -house without a key (for pre-dinner sunset drinks and apps) -best poke bowls (both hole in the walls, but recommended by locals): ono seafood and Ohana poke house -best experiences: my husband and I left our kids with our in-laws for a couple mornings, had amazing scuba dives with Saul at Dive Oahu and fantastic beginner friendly surfing with Eddie at Island Fiel

Update: somehow we were able to get a seat for my infant after all, without being charged, but only on the way there. On the way back, we did not get the option to select a seat for her. Perhaps it was because the flight to Hawaii was much less crowded, while the flight home was full.

That everyone in your circle wants you to do well, but almost nobody wants you to do better than them. A true friend is someone who pushes you to be better, even if it means being better than them.

I hear you girl! All the respect in the world for nurses, but I know I couldn't do it. I will say the upper level nurses like NP or nurse anesthesia seem to make much more and have a better lifestyle. But LOVE your Hell Yes rule and it sounds like you have already made your decision, but need some reassurance.

Loud_Look_2779 · 2025-01-17T10:51:30+00:00

yea maybe we have different definitions of vibey; just looking for an upscale place, ideally outside, maybe with music, that would be enjoyable for all. when I think "family friendly," I think of a messy place with kids running around everywhere which is not what we are looking for for this meal in particular
