The Hale Koa Resort is located on Fort DeRussy along the beachfront of Waikiki, where most want to stay in Hawaii. This hotel offers plenty of activities including live music, garden tours, magic shows, hula lessons and tennis tournaments. You can schedule a relaxing massage or an invigorating workout in the fitness center.
To book your Hawaiian getaway here, you must qualify as an active, retired or honorably discharged member of the Armed Forces or a family member of such a person. Some civilians employed by the Department of Defense, as well as employees of the Public Health Service or National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Corps are also eligible to stay at Hale Koa.
If you're looking for an inland tropical Hawaiian adventure, look no further than Kilauea Military Camp in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, located on the big island. From Kilauea you have easy access to hikes through lush forests, lava deserts and the Kilauea volcanoes.
Try some ping pong, live entertainment or rent a movie from the recreation lodge. Accommodations include one-bedroom apartments, one-bedroom cottages and up to three-bedroom cottages with a jetted tub and kitchen.
If you aren't looking for the touristy beaches of Waikiki or the excitement of Volcanoes National Park, Barking Sands is the perfect setting for a secluded Hawaiian vacation. Nineteen quaint cottages make up Beach Cottages on Kauai, a little resort on Pacific Missile Range Facility on the west side of what is known as the "Garden Isle," so named in honor of the abundant plant life found here.
Your private two-bedroom cottage is reserved for active members of the military, though all retired military personnel, their families and some other uniformed personnel are also eligible for vacationing here (just as in the other hotels).
