You’ll experience five-star luxury at the stylish The Kahala Hotel and Resort, yet there’s no resort fee to pay. It’s a perfect choice if you long to be away from the main tourist center of Waikiki. The resort is surrounded by tropical gardens and leads onto its own private beach at Kahala. There’s also a lagoon with dolphins and memorable views of the Ko’olau Mountains. 338 spacious rooms are very elegant and many have balconies.
