Excellent video, we’re heading there in February 2023 and I haven’t been to Hawaii since 1970 when we were heading to Vietnam. Very excited for our upcoming trip. Aloha from Maine;) liked and subscribed too:)
It was decently priced. I purchased my ukulele there. However we bought our chocolates at Costco of all places 😆. They had the best prices. Oh and their Hawaiian shirts and alcohol too😉
@@hotelreviews5826 Can the non military people actually go in side the Exchange shop to look around ? That ukulele with the Hawaiian Islands carved on it caught my eye
@@TheDreadedRaider it was a great trip. We did the luau, it was amazing, we saw the Magic show, Mark the Magician put on the best Magic Show we ever saw. The gym was small but good enough for a decent workout and the staff at the hotel were pretty great and helpful too. We already have our next Hawaiian Vacation booked and planned. Aloha, have a great time.
Just booked for next March. Looks awesome and half the cost of comparable resorts.
My sister and I are going next May (2025). We have never been to Hawaii before. Thanks for the review.
Have fun!
Wow!
That’s an amazing transformation from 30 years ago!!
Thanks
Cool! I’ve always wondered what it looked like inside. It’s pretty awesome our military has this.

That Exchange store looks like it is fully loaded with all the good Hawaiian souvenirs and gifts 🤙 To bad general public can not shop there :(

@@RodSwansmad unfortunately the general public cannot shop there. I was considering getting that ukulele too but I got the one with turtle print.
Retired earned the perks ✌✌😎
Great video ! Great memories!
At night the area around the tree is beautiful and quite peaceful a exchange, a restaurant etc.
I love that tree
I HAVE TO GO BEAUTIFUL
I love choco mochi
Is that a partial ocean view or a full ocean view? We have a Partial for our upcoming vacation (February 2023). Good video too:)
I'm assuming a full view. If there's a view better than that please let me know after your vacation 😁
How was the trip? Just booked 10 days for December

really strange question but do u remember there being a smith machine at the gym?
Sorry I don't remember seeing Smith at the gym
If you are NOT staying at the Hale Koa but have a military ID, can you use the pool and gym?
Probably not. You need a room key to access the gym.
Is this a hotel for military veterans as well?
Yes
Does the Hale Koa have a place to buy discounted tickets for attractions (MWR)?
yes in the lobby
Are all the amenities open? Are there any restrictions?
Everything is operating as normal
