Located in the heart of Waikiki, 2 minutes' walk to Waikiki Beach, Halepuna Waikiki is a luxury boutique hotel surrounded by shopping and dining. The property was designed by internationally acclaimed interior design firm, Champalimaud and features works of several Hawaiian artists in partnership with The Honolulu Museum of Art public art program. This hotel is expensive, very expensive, but the room is so clean and the facilities amazing that I really felt it was worth it. If you are someone, like myself, who likes extreme cleanliness, I would say this is for you. Location is central, in the heart of Waikiki, so you can walk easily to the beach, if you are a beach person. All in all, if I'll ever come back to Hawaii, this is def the place I would stay again.

Located on The Big Island of Hawaii, this accommodation is less than 5 minutes’ drive to Volcanoes National Park and Volcano Art Center Gallery. Free Wi-Fi is provided in all rooms.

Offering a fireplace, each room also includes a refrigerator, tea and coffee-making facilities and an en suite bathroom at Volcano Village Estates. Select rooms features a bar area or a bay window. Honestly, I loved this place so much. My little cottage was perfect –– cozy, well designed, and had all of the amenities you can want. Carlos is an absolute gem and his breakfast was amazing. I will definitely come back often. Feels like a home away from home.

A fresh fruit bowl and signature chocolates welcome guests in each room at Halekulani - NO RESORT FEE. All guest rooms include a luxurious en suite bathroom with plush bathrobes, premium toiletries, marble vanities, deep soaking tub and a separate glassed-in shower. A flat-screen TV is also provided. Staying at Halekulani was an unforgettable experience. The hotel is elegant, peaceful, and beautifully located right on Waikiki Beach. My room was spotless, with an ocean view that took my breath away every morning. The staff were outstanding — always kind, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. Every detail, from the fresh flowers to the evening turndown service, made the stay feel special. The fact that there’s no resort fee is a rare bonus in Waikiki, and it made the experience feel even more generous. The pool, restaurants, and spa were all top-notch. I left feeling relaxed and truly cared for. I’d return without hesitation.
