About Waikiki

Waikiki, situated on the south shore of Honolulu, is a world-renowned neighborhood that was first introduced to the world in 1901, after the completion of its first hotel, the Moana Surfrider. Waikiki, which means “spouting waters” in Hawaiian, once served as a playground for the royalty of Hawaii. Over the years up until today, it has become one of the most sought-after holiday destinations and a bustling social venue for tourists from all over the world. Despite its size (encompassing only a mere 1.5 square miles), Waikiki draws nearly 5 million visitors every year, which says a lot about its beauty and charm. If there’s one thing that Waikiki is most famous for, it’s definitely for its beaches. The crystal blue water and Mount Leahi as the backdrop, the beaches in this neighborhood are indeed unlike any other. However, there’s more to Waikiki than just its shores; the community is filled with opportunities for fun, such as shopping, dining, water sports, and more. Whether you are a Hawaiian local or a tourist, consider using Bounce’s services. We offer short-term storage for your bags and have partners across Waikiki to make your time here convenient and hassle-free.
