Here you’ll see the Wheel of Fortune bonus puzzle answer today throughout the month of April 2025. As always, we’ll provide the answer to the final puzzle first and then list the solutions to the toss-ups and standard puzzles. We’ll continue to the update this post throughout the month on the daily.
The theme for this week is Hilton Hawaiian Vacation, so the puzzles should be related to hotels, Hawaii, and vacations in general. These solutions are for the syndicated show hosted by Ryan Seacrest and Vanna White, with tonight’s game featuring three new contestants: Mohamed El-Shiekh, Sheila Sabo, and Diana Cabot. (We’ll have a separate post for Celebrity Wheel of Fortune with Pat Sajak when it pops back on April 30.) Here are all the solutions to the Wheel of Fortune puzzles for April 18.
