The amenities and food were amazing, wonderful breakfasts , and the Dolphins and other animals were so much fun

Jason H.

Stay in the tower! -for privacy + to avoid screaming children on beach outside your window. Garden view + ocean view are both fantastic. Getting a lanai is worth it! Beautiful secluded Oahu location.

Caroline

A beautiful world-class Hotel . All in all, simply top notch. Well maintained and spacious rooms with nice interieur. A first class service. Arrived in Hotel Heaven!

Tailor your own afternoon tea by selecting from a range of tea sandwiches and savory bites. Their berry scones are some of the best on the island .

The Dolphin Side rooms are a very good value , fun and different. If you book on floor 2 or 3 towards the main bldg you also get a partial oceanview.

I grew up in this area from my teen years on, celebrated my wedding day & spent my honeymoon here. It is literally the best property on Oahu. Look for me at Plumeria , the Veranda or Hoku. Love it here

I recommend you to wake up early & go to see the sunrise at the beach ! Its beautiful ! Paddle boards are fun !

Scott Kepnach

The nicest resort on Oahu, with a private lagoon and six dolphins doing daily shows. This is tucked away behind Diamond Head, but it's my go to spot to relax and pretend I'm bougie. Read more

Catherine Maisonneuve

Eat @Tokyo-Tokyo, Drinks @Veranda , stay in a Dolphin Lanai Room so you can watch the dolphins in the resort 's private lagoon , bait with the sea turtles or the giant skate in the pools. BE IMPRESSED

Park at nearby Wai'alae Beach Park and walk over on the beach , then check out the dolphin shows for free!

Veranda , Kahala's lounge is the perfect spot to get a cocktail and enjoy live entertainment by talented local performers

This place is elegance defined. Sit out at the beach . Eat at Plumeria . Just let the outside world go and let this wonderful staff pamper you.

Stay in the lagoon rooms for 550 sq ft of exquisite room and big lanais overlooking the dolphin action...

Donnie Drunko

Romantic and exclusive. Nice choice for staying closebybthe city but enjoying a quiet scenery!

Kalika Yap

The Keiki pool is great for toddlers! Love the new pool lounge chairs they put in Dec 2011. There are surf instructors on the beach !

Paul Klink

Ask about the continental buffet that includes all this and drink! Only $22.00 OMG!!!

Excellent customer service! Great food, wonderful rooms, excellent staff , beautiful views !

@Emelercetinn

Must stay in this hotel at Hawaii... We love it so much...

Jason H.

Important tip. The scenic view in the main tower is better than ocean view . Ocean view looks at parking +front of hotel . And can hear the generators. The scenic view looks at mountains and is quiet !

Christa Wittmier

Mushroom poke off the bar menu at Plumeria or you have NOT lived!

Torzin S
