We got married at the Kahala (and stayed two nights). The venue is gorgeous, we wanted somewhere close to Waikiki but didn’t want public traffic on the beach during our ceremony and Kahala is the best for this. All our guests loved the food, especially the crab cake & tiramisu. The different photo spots onsite is amazing, the lobby photo scene is stunning. Finally, Anna and her team is superb (very responsive + accomodating) and their vendor partners are amazing. Btw - Hoku’s brunch is the best brunch place I’ve ever been to - must go.
The property and amenities are AMAZING, but it’s the service that make The Kahala the ONLY staycation spot for us! Yes, we’re local. So we know what we’re talking about. If you’re looking for “paradise” - quiet, remote beach, exquisite, on-property dining - The Kahala is the place for you!
The staff and service was excellent. Gary our driver was so cool, and the retail shop manager Monjiwas great!! Love the room and the view, breakfast filled us for the day, can I buy room 1024?
Thank you for the love and new friendships that we have created with the Kahala team, we will be back!!
the hotel is in a very quiet residential area 10 minutes from Waikiki. it is a beautiful, tranquil setting, next to a golf course with great oceanfront rooms and restaurants. Plus gorgeous dolphins to watch in shows and at play.
We came to the Kahala for our 20th wedding anniversary, and were thrilled with everything this hotel had to offer. It is tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu and Waikiki, while still being a short shuttle away. This is vintage Hawaii. The resort is impeccable maintained. We had an oceanfront king Room with complimentary breakfast. The rooms are very large and roomy and the breakfast buffet never disappointed, we ate there every morning for 4 days and didn’t feel the need to eat again until the evening. Plumeria restaurant is open concept, breezy and beautiful. We enjoyed breakfast while watching children play, yoga class and the beautiful ocean. Dolphin encounter, fish ponds, gym area, evening entertainment, beautiful gardens (I could go on and on.) definitely look this one up- this resort pays attention to every detail.

Parking is $32 per day whether valet or self park. We had a package that included parking among other things.
Taxi's are readily available at the resort if you don't want to rent a car. About $30 to downtown honolulu so kind of pricey.
Resort also has transportation to different places via a small bus but we did not take advantage of that so I don't have any details.
