The Royal Hawaiian, A Luxury Collection Resort, Waikiki, a 5-star landmark in Waikiki's vibrant surf beach neighborhood, features the only spa on O'ahu offering treatments in a tropical garden setting. The resort's soaring pink turrets and legendary gardens create a distinctive sanctuary, complemented by two signature pools - the intimate Malulani Pool and family-focused Helumoa Playground.

Elegant Ocean View Accommodations

Fresh and elegant rooms showcase bold fuchsia pink and platinum silver headboards, with options featuring sea or garden views. The Luxury Collection accommodations include walk-in showers, seating areas, and private balconies.

Award-Winning Dining Venues

Azure Restaurant presents award-winning oceanfront dining with expert sommelier service, while the original Mai Tai Bar offers fresh POG juice and fruit mimosas. The Royal Hawaiian Bakery, located on the Coconut Lanai, produces signature banana bread and custom-created cakes.

Spa and Recreation

Abhasa Spa provides massages in outdoor cabanas hidden among thick ferns and towering palms. The Royal Hawaiian offers two Jacuzzis at Helumoa Playground and one beside the Malulani pool.

Beach Access Hub

The resort sits at Waikiki Beach's apex, 0.5 miles from Surfer Statue and 0.5 miles from Royal Hawaiian Center. The property provides direct access to beach activities including surfing and snorkeling.

“This storied Waikiki hotel impresses with its prime beachfront location and exclusive access to a private beach area; Aha Aina, Honolulu's only oceanfront luau, celebrates local culture, while diverse on-site dining options satisfy varied palates. However, some opinions highlight that the level of service and maintenance have not kept pace with its luxury ambitions. For a stay steeped in tradition and ideally positioned, this remains a solid choice, provided expectations are tempered.”
