Kaimana Beach Hotel sits on Waikīkī's "Gold Coast" along Queen Kapiʻolani Park, where the beachfront meets the base of Diamond Head. The property has occupied this stretch of oceanfront since 1963, built on grounds with roots going back to a family estate from 1903 — grounds that once drew Hawaiian royalty and, famously, novelist Robert Louis Stevenson, who found inspiration beneath the hau tree grove that still lends its name to the hotel's signature restaurant. The hotel offers three distinct event spaces, each with direct views of the Pacific. The Kaimana Ballroom, the largest, accommodates up to 120 guests and connects to an oceanfront lānai. The Kapua Lounge is an intimate setting suited to rehearsal dinners and small gatherings of up to 30. The Hale Hau is a private oceanfront dining room for up to 18. The Hau Tree Restaurant can host seated events of up to 150 in an open-air, beachside setting beneath a canopy of trees. All event spaces include high-speed WiFi, a SONOS sound system, and in-house catering. The hotel's events team works with groups to build personalized programs in place of standard packages.

Established in 1904 and managed by the University of Hawaiʻi, the Waikīkī Aquarium holds the distinction of being the second-oldest public aquarium in the United States. Situated on a 2.35-acre oceanfront parcel in Waikīkī on Oʻahu, the Aquarium has spent more than a century advancing the study and appreciation of Pacific marine life — and its setting along the water makes it one of the more distinctive event locations on the island. Evening facility rentals bring exclusive access to the full grounds: the manicured lawn facing Diamond Head and the Pacific Ocean, the indoor Aquarium Galleries showcasing tropical marine communities of the Hawaiian and Pacific ecosystems, the 7,500-gallon "Edge of the Reef" outdoor exhibit that recreates a living Hawaiian shoreline, and the Hawaiian Monk Seal habitat. The open lawn accommodates up to 450–500 guests for cocktail receptions and up to 300–350 for seated dinner functions. Rentals are available on Tuesday and Saturday evenings. For questions and availability, the Aquarium's events office can be reached at (808) 440-9008 or events@waikikiaquarium.org.
