    We come here often, whenever we visit Waikiki. Great drinks, great people, great views...everything one could ask for from a beachside booze shack. Finding seating can be difficult, but generally doable. Highly recommend!

    I really enjoyed the interaction when ordering and my Mango Lava Flow cocktail was very good and the sample of the original Lava Flow was as terrific. Be careful - too many of these could be dangerous! Loved being able to get a casual drink at the waters/beach edge of Waikiki. Bonus - great music, wave action and people watching.

    View from the bar

    Absolutely perfect location just a few feet from the water. Kimo is warm, friendly and an ambassador for all things Hawaiian - the true spirit of Aloha Great selection of refreshments including local cocktails! In case you forget, there's a handy supply of complimentary sunscreen available. Showers and rest rooms approx 100 yards away. Arrive about 30 mins before opening (check sign for time - either midday or 1pm) to secure a seat.

    Kimo, the bartender whipped up some mighty fine cocktails . This bar sits DIRECTLY on the water, can't get any closer without falling in.

    Amazing beach bar! The owner has the best vibe, plays great music, and makes the best drinks we had in Hawaii.

    Best Bar Experience in Hawaii! This beach bar made our whole trip. The owner is amazing -- the friendliest vibe, great energy, and he makes the best drinks we've had on the island. Prices are great, the music is perfect, and he even treated us to free drinks throughout the day. Such a fun, welcoming atmosphere. We're adding pictures because this spot deserves all the love. If you're in Hawaii, you have to stop here!

    Battery Randolph behind it. Go in there!!

    Save some money! Koa oasis is attached to the hale Koa hotel. For servicemen and women you get a great price and for regular Joe haoles it's still a good deal. I think the mai tai were 12 bucks. Usually around 18 bucks down the street or at the hotels or more . And they're good drinks too and the bartenders are nice people. The customers are great. The military folks are in shape, the place is well run. Go to the US Army museum up the hill. It's free and it's awesome. I love that battery Randolph & the history of the whole thing. They have a good hotdog there and it's inexpensive. I forget what the other food is but the whole thing is great. You sit there and look at the ocean and enjoy your dranks from the tables. The more I think about it it's really a can't miss if you're staying at Hawaiian Village you just walk right over there, they open at 11. Aloha! Five stars.

    Sunset at Koa Oasis Hale Koa Beach, Honolulu, Hawaii

    This spot has the best relaxing views away from busy Waikiki. It's also a great date spot, or just a nice place to relax and watch the catermaran boats drift on & off shore. This place has the most Awesome service and the best hospitality on the island by Kimo! Mahalo's!

    Mango flow
    Anida M.

    It doesn't get better than this - a pretty drink watching a gorgeous sunset! We got really lucky with scoring the last table, and I got the mango flow, which is a little twist on the normal strawberry puree for a lava flow. It was delicious! For our second round, I got the sunset lemonade and my husband got the lava flow. Kimo was so friendly! This will be one of my guaranteed evening plans every time I'm in Waikiki!

    Mai tai & lava flow
    Michelle I.

    Easy to find! Right on the beach front. An extension of the hale koa hotel. Sweet bartender, good quality drinks at decent prices. Great place to watch the waves & have a drink!

    as you walk by this place admiring the beautiful surroundings, do yourself a favor and sit down here and enjoy a mai tai. Yes i know, but trust me on this one .. quick service, great drinks, aloha!

    Frozen mai tai
    Rohith V.

    We came to hangout on the beach and saw this place right on the boardwalk. Went with a frozen mai tai and it did not disappoint. Really tasty and low price! They closed by the time I could go back for a second drink sadly but highly recommend!

    Local bar

    Walked 3.5 miles from the port to go to a locals beach bar. It is exactly that. Beautiful view of the waves. Totally enjoying this place!

    Mango Flow
    Crystalyn M.

    Amazing view, atmosphere, drinks and service. The gentleman cooking and serving drinks was also very diligent about sanitizing the tables and providing excellent customer service. I had a Mai Tai and Mango Flow. Both were delicious. He also sent the drinks off with a cup of ice water, which is so thoughtful. You can't beat this view and price. There are other beachfront bars around, but this is right at the edge of the water. The music was very aloha. It's extremely convenient to be close to the restrooms also.

    Would not return…read more During a recent visit, a bartender named Eli made a comment to me that was sexual in nature and made me extremely uncomfortable -- not the kind of interaction I expect from staff at any establishment. After that exchange, I noticed the service toward my group became noticeably colder for the rest of the night. We also had repeated issues getting correct change back on cash transactions at the bar. I raised both concerns with management afterward and received no response or acknowledgment. I've been there several times over the past year, and this experience was enough to end that. I can't speak to whether this is a pattern, but it's not an experience I'm willing to risk again, and I'd encourage other patrons -- especially women -- to be cautious. For a better night out, Dragon upstairs has better drinks, better prices, and a staff that treats customers well.

They always have live music, art for sale on the walls, and characters to talk to at the bar. If you're looking for a drink or an ear day or night, Hanks got you. The bartenders make their drinks generously and the beer selection is "perfectly acceptable" as my father in law would say.
