Waikiki Beach Luxury Hotels

By Josh Baum

Waikiki Beach Luxury Hotels
Waikiki Beach is one of the most developed and popular tourist districts in all of Hawaii, and is therefore home to some of the state's most luxurious hotels and resorts. If you're seeking all the comforts of home--and then some--without being more than a few steps away from Waikiki's white sands, you may want to reserve a night or two in one of these premier luxury hotels. The nightly rates are steep, but the views, accommodations and service are consistent with the prices.

Halekulani

Halekulani is a historic resort property set on five beachfront acres in Waikiki. Guestrooms are appointed with custom beds, expanded marble bathrooms, furnished lanai balconies and gourmet welcome baskets of fruit and chocolates. Halekulani guests are free to enjoy private beach access, large pools and sundecks, five fine dining restaurants with beach views and a complete health and beauty spa. The Ala Wai Golf Course is located just under a mile to the east of Halekulani.
