“Wonderful & elegant family resort!”

Reviewed 18 June 2013 NEW

We spent 7 wonderful nights at the Kahala Hotel and Resort at the end of April/beginning of May. While there were a few areas that they could improve upon, overall, it was a fabulous vacation and an excellent value in reality. I stayed at the Kahala Hilton many times as a child and had very fond memories of the vacations... More

“Excellent stay at the Kahala”

Reviewed 10 June 2013

My wife and I recently spent a couple of days in the Honolulu area before we flew over to Maui. I chose the Kahala because it is not in the "heart" of downtown Honolulu and it is a much more relaxed atmosphere compared to the other 5 star hotels in Honolulu (The Royal Hawaiian and the Halekulani). I booked a... More

“Relaxing, spacious and a few minutes out of the mad rush of Honolulu”

Spend 5 days at the Kahala Resort and loved it. This hotel was built in the 1960's so the rooms are quite large and are today very well appointed. Balconies are also large enough to party on !! The hotel has great views with rooms facing the ocean as well as the Waialae Golf and Country Club at the rear... More
