Many of the guest rooms have private lanais offering expansive and jaw-dropping views of Diamond Head, Hawaii’s iconic volcanic tuff cone, city views, or the serene blue and green hues of Waikiki Beach. InStyle.com once named Ê»Alohilani Resort’s pool as one of the “10 Most Instagram-Worthy Pools in America,” and for good reason; the fifth-floor SWELL Pool Deck features a heated saltwater infinity pool, cabanas perched atop reflecting pools, and tiered day beds. For a heftier bite, dine at celebrity Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s four dining concepts, including restaurants: Morimoto Asia and Momosan. |
