Having lived, worked and gone to the University in Honolulu/ Chaminade University for a total of 11 years my biggest suggestion is to consider a vacation rental on or within walking distance of the ocean instead of a hotel.
My favorite is Kailua Beach or Lanikai beach. Both 30 to 40 minutes to Waikiki.
Check Vacation Rentals by Owner (****.com) for suggestions. You will find the cost cheaper than a hotel room and you will have the ability to cook etc; and walk out to a great beach.
If you stay in Kailua Beach or Lanikai, Eat at Buzz's Steakhouse for great steaks and Seafood.
For authentic hawaiian food, go to ONOS Restaurant on Kapahulu ave.
Enjoy.
