Celebrating couples, vacationers, and business travelers enjoy the calm, almost-residential atmosphere of this five-acre oceanfront resort that dates from 1917.
Amenity highlights: The bottom of the heated oceanside pool is covered with an orchid mosaic composed of about a million glass tiles, and surrounded by a terrazzo deck; attendants supply cold towels, cooling spritzers, and CD players with headsets.

| From the moment you're greeted you'll know the Halekulani is special. No need to check in at the front desk! They don't even take your credit card number until you've been escorted to your room and shown its features. The location is convenient to shopping, and there's a beautiful view of Diamond Head.

| Don't normally stay at fancy places like this...but did it for the honeymoon experience. Place is wonderful. At first, looks a bit shadowed by the other large hotels...but the coziness and charm is definitely there. Service was wonderful...don't notice they're there until you need them.
