You don't need a car for Waikiki and the area around the Marriott but you should get a car for getting around Oahu as the bus that circles the island is a hassle, and would be even more so if you were carting around an infant.
The sun is much, much stronger than in Boston so marinate yourselves in SPF30 or higher all the time. And the baby will need something stronger -- ask your doctor. Also gt a baby beach hat that covers the head and back of the neck.
Swimming at Waikiki is safe but other parts of the island have strong undertows. If the locals aren't in the water, stay out. They know where to swim. Might be worth picking up some small fins for swimming so your kick will be stronger.
Can't speak to family-friendly activities for a one-year old on Oahu but we took our then one-year old son to Maui in 2002 and just did beach stuff and swimming which he actually liked a lot.
ABC stores have very cheap tatami mats for laying on the sand.
Going to any other islands or just Oahu?
