Punctuating a strip of Oahu's pristine coastline, the Kahala Hotel & Resort is a magical Hawaiian destination that is removed from the urban bustle of Honolulu. Located on a secluded crescent beach in Kahala, this seaside resort has hosted international celebrities, dignitaries and every U.S. President since the Nixon administration. Despite its quiet location, the hotel is less than four miles from Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head and the Honolulu Zoo.
The favorite hotel feature is decidedly the friendly Atlantic bottlenose dolphins that populate a 26,000 square foot salt water lagoon in the middle of the property. Under professional supervision, hotel guests are invited to swim and interact with these highly educated creatures for a modest fee.
The Cabanas Seaside Grill invites guests to experience perhaps the most intimate dining concept in Honolulu, where private oceanfront cabanas with white linen tablecloths and hand blown glass tableware set the stage for very memorable occasions. Promoting healthy lifestyles, the Kahala Hotel has an impressive fitness facility, where guests can practice wellness with personal trainers, engage in aquatic exercises and yoga, or simply relax in gender specific saunas and steam rooms. The Kahala also takes a genuine interest in children, as evidenced in the Keiki Club, where youths ages 5 12 participate in one half day and full day sessions of Hawaiian culture and activities.
In the charming style of local coconut plantations, the Kahala Hotel guestrooms feature teak floors, hand woven Tibetan carpets and mahogany furnishings. Every unit has either a furnished sit down balcony or a Juliet balcony with powerful ocean or mountain views. With canopy beds, rattan chaise lounges and precious island décor, these 550 square accommodations serve as an enchanting platform for memorable Hawaiian vacations.
For travelers who want to experience the excitement of Honolulu, The Kahala offers complimentary shuttle transportation to Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head and the Ala Moana Center. Check with the hotel concierge for details.
