Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach

Honolulu, Oahu

Star rating

The hotel

Pure paradise if you’re heading to Hawaii for its beaches, Alohilani boasts contemporary design and is steps from Waikiki Beach’s exclusive ‘Kuhio’ stretch. You can be snorkelling, surfing or swimming just moments after you arrive. If that’s not enough water, Alohilani Resort’s 280,000 gallon Oceanarium is filled with Hawaiian reef fishes, creating a soothing setting for drinks at O Bar and island breakfasts at Lychee. And, if your aquatic thirst still isn’t quenched, the fifth floor pool deck’s an impeccably chic setting, with its infinity pool, paddling pool, bar, overstuffed teak loungers, driftwood sculptures, and ocean views. You could even splash out on a cabana or water lounger. By night, it’s a magical space with lanterns, fire pits, and live music, ideal after dining in one of its two restaurants led by world-famous ‘Iron Chef’ Masaharu Morimoto.

From the moment we checked in (thanks PT for your helpful local insights and for helping us get all our rooms together, we really appreciate it!) it was a lovely relaxing holiday. Perfect for a group of Aussie & US friends catching up. We enjoyed long relaxing breakfasts on the pool desk and live music in the evenings (the 6 piece band on Memorial Day were awesome!). The location is up the quieter end of the beach, but an easy flat walk to the action. We also enjoyed walks along the beach and also to the crater. One star removed as the cleaning of the indoor common areas could be better (like the lifts particularly #3 and shared lounge spaces). A key call out were how lovely the staff are. Thanks for having us, we had a really lovely stay! Read less
