Free, with a donation box, this place is pretty amazing. Lots of history to learn about, and some cool artifacts, as well.

Great little museum on the beach. The first section changes and I prefer when the leave local history vice Vietnam but understand the desire to keep it fresh. Only downside is the 7in gun on top is completely out of place. Totally the wrong mount.

I really enjoyed myself and learning so much! Lot of emotions ran thru me. I did buy items from the store to come home and find out they are made in China. Couldn't you find a place in the USA. That disappointed me. Overall I would recommend!

Heard a lot about Pearl Harbor but this museum was top notch. We spent 2 full afternoons and I could have enjoyed more time. Lots to read and think about. On beach, near restaurants and huge, beautiful park! Put on bucket list if interested in Hawaii's role in history.

We visited this museum on several occasions during our numerous stays at our resort (Hilton Hawaiian Village).  We actually never knew or heard about this place until we decided to take a walk to downtown Waikiki and walked to this place.  Although there is parking across the street from this museum, for us, this wasn't an issue because we either "hoofed it" or took "The Bus," everywhere we went on this island!  

The first thing we noticed was the "helicopter (AH-1 Cobra)" that was sitting on top of the building and on display.  On our visit, it was hot outside and entering the building to get out from the heat was refreshing.  The best part was that the admission was "free."

We absorbed ourselves with the museum's collection of military artifacts, medals, and equipment used by soldiers of that era.

I enjoyed reading about Hawaii's King Kamehameha who as the story goes in the 1700s and early 1800s united the seven Hawaiian Islands under a single rule.  

I think my family learned a lot from this visit and the historical value it played during the war in the pacific.  In the end, we toured the small gift shop and browsed the many items for sale such as military memorabilia, clothing, and various military unit insignias.  We continued our walk towards Waikiki!
