ABOUT THE SETTING // Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach

Located just 60 steps from door to shore, on the coveted Kalakaua Avenue, Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach launched in winter of 2017 as a modern and tranquil oasis in the heart of Waikiki that pays homage to Queen Lili‘uokalani and Hawai‘i’s rich cultural heritage. A grand porte-cochere entrance greets guests, while a sophisticated and modern lobby offers an open floor plan with soaring window walls and lofty ceilings.

The lobby features the O Bar with its re-imagined 280,000-gallon saltwater Oceanarium teeming with marine life. The pool deck on the fifth floor is a see-and-be-seen destination overlooking Waikiki Beach (it was named one of “The 10 Most Instagram-Worthy Pools in America” on InStyle.com) that includes five cabanas, social gathering spaces with fire pits and Swell Bar. Dining at Alohilani shines with two hot new restaurants from Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto, Morimoto Asia Waikiki and Momosan Waikiki.
