Halekulani is located on Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii’s third largest island. In addition to the sparkling ocean and white sand beaches the island also features dense tropical jungle which offers a little solace from the heat of the tropical sun. Some of its popular tourist attractions include the Royal Palace, Diamond Head volcano and Pearl Harbor Naval Base.

Halekulani’s name means “house befitting heaven” and it’s not just the surrounds that are reminiscent of Eden.  Halekulani dates back to 1907 and is a grand hotel that spans five different buildings. The rooms are airy and comfortable and luxurious enough to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

If lazing around on the beach is something you can only do for so long, there are plenty of water sports on offer to take care of your adventurous spirit. Take part in waterskiing, canoeing, snorkelling and surfing and get your golden tan the natural way.

All that activity is sure to whet your appetite, which will sort it out straight away with a visit to La Mer Restaurant. It specializes in fine French cuisine that is tasty and satisfying. If you’re in the mood for a more casual affair then a leisurely snack under a 100-year old Kiave Tree at House Without A Key should be on the cards.

With a full spa, concierge and butler service you’re guaranteed not to go wanting.
