· Outrigger Combines A Beachfront Setting With Unlimited Golf For A Great Hawaii Vacation HONOLULU, OAHU, Hawaii - The Outrigger Waikiki and Outrigger Reef hotels invite golfers to enjoy the best beachfront locations in Waikiki that Outrigger has to offer, plus unlimited golf at Oahu's newest golf links, all at great nightly prices.
Now through December 21, 2003, the venerable Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach and the popular Outrigger Reef on the Beach are offering an unlimited golf package with prices starting at just $210 per night for a single golfer, or $280 per night for two golfers. The package includes accommodations at either of Outrigger's two beachfront hotels in Waikiki plus one confirmed tee time per day at the beautiful Coral Creek Golf Course on Oahu's western shore. In addition, the package includes unlimited play privileges on the same day on a space available basis. Golfers can also add a compact Dollar rental car for just $26 per night. Gas, parking, optional coverage and vehicle surcharge are not included. The Coral Creek Golf Course is Oahu's newest. Nominated by Golf Digest as one of the "100 Best New Courses in America," Coral Creek is nestled along the island's sun-drenched Ewa coast. Just a 30-minute drive from Waikiki, this par 72, 6,870-yard course provides a challenging test to golfers of all skill levels. Designed by Honolulu-based golf course architect Robin Nelson of Nelson and Haworth, architect of the Mauna Lani course on Hawaii's Big Island, Coral Creek offers 18 challenging holes amidst the rich island landscape and historic sugar cane plantations that surround the fairways and rolling greens. Water comes into play on13 holes, with six of the lakes fully lined with coral walls and interconnected by a coral creek, thus the course's name. One of Coral Creek's picturesque holes is #10, a 190-yard par 3, which features a 30-foot cascading waterfall as a backdrop. The Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach is Outrigger's premier flagship hotel on Oahu. This 530-room deluxe hotel is perched on the silken sands of Waikiki with every room boasting either a partial or full ocean view from the room's lanai. Special features in the hotel's newly renovated guest rooms include fresh, island decor, a refrigerator, color cable TV, coffee makers, hairdryer and iron/board. Guests can immerse themselves in an endless array of ocean activities when at the Outrigger Waikiki, stay in shape in the hotel's fitness room, experience first hand the island culture with the hotel's regularly scheduled cultural activities or simply relax on the beach or poolside. There are three restaurants on property, including world-famous Duke's Canoe Club, truly the most popular gathering place on Waikiki Beach. With its open-air lobby, friendly guest service and weekly Aloha Friday cultural celebration, the Outrigger Reef is certainly one of the most inviting hotels on the beach at Waikiki. Each of the hotel's 858 guest rooms offers decor designed for relaxation and comfort, plus amenities like a refrigerator, color cable TV, coffee makers, hairdryer and iron/board. There are three restaurants on property, including the popular Shore Bird Restaurant and Beach Bar, known for its grill-your-own dinner menu, and the newly opened Ocean House Restaurant, where sunset dining is a pleasure. The hotel also offers an extensive pool area, an array of shops, a fully automated business center, a children's program and the 4,500 square foot Serenity Spa Hawaii.
