Island getaway at Honolulu vacation home rentals
Perched on the southwestern tip of the island of Oahu, Honolulu is the quintessential Hawaiian destination. Book a Honolulu vacation rental and you'll soon enjoy everything the capital city has to offer, from big city attractions to unspoiled stretches of nature. Few places on earth feature such a landscape where volcanoes and tropical rainforests serve as the backdrop to a bustling downtown filled with skyscrapers. The big draw, however, remains the idyllic beaches, where the palm trees sway in the island breezes and turquoise waters pound the shoreline.

The USS Arizona Memorial honors the lives lost during the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. Accessible only by boat, the museum's exhibits highlight the events of that fateful day as it straddles the remnants of the sunken battleship. If you're in search of lighter fare, Sea Life Park Hawaii features such marine life as penguins, sea lions, and dolphins, while the 42-acre Honolulu Zoo is home to gardens, a petting zoo, and more than 900 animals.

Leave the water behind and hike up the dormant Diamond Head volcano, pausing to peer inside its giant crater. When you've had your fill of nature, indulge in some retail therapy at the Ala Moana Center, an upscale mall, or visit Waikiki, a neighborhood buzzing with trendy restaurants, shops, bars, nightclubs, and luxury high-rise hotels.
