Delegates at the Kahala Hotel & Resort enjoy all the elements of a classic Hawaiian holiday, from pool to palms to dolphin encounters in the clear blue Pacific water. At the same time they recognize the sophistication that instantly put the hotel on the world's map when it opened in 1964 and NBC booked the entire hotel for a meeting. The company brought in a bevy of Hollywood stars, and the rest is history—made by everyone from Frank Sinatra and Lucille Ball to Queen Elizabeth II, the Dalai Lama, Michelle Pfeiffer, and the Rolling Stones.
The discreet Honolulu locale and heartfelt hospitality remain unchanged. Yet continual updates keep the hotel at the forefront of luxury standards, from its world-class spa to its world-class restaurants. Guests live in 312 rooms and 31 suites appointed in “Kahala Chic” style, including wireless Internet access. A state-of-the-art business center backs 12,330 square feet of flexible meeting space: the Maile Ballroom for up to 450, the Waialae Room for up to 120, the Kainoa I Room for up to 20, and the Kainoa II Boardroom for up to 12.
The staff easily arranges for creative theme breaks and outside functions as well. Popular spouse programs include visits to the Bishop Museum, Pearl Harbor, and walking tours of Waikiki.
Planner Reviews
Average Rating: 7.63
Arrival was slightly confusing and lengthy, though friendly. Accommodations were just okay-courtyard rooms overlook the porte cochere and many rooms have no lanai. Small pool and not much in the way of activities other than some kayaks. Difficult to get onto adjacent private golf course. Sushi restaurant also overlooks porte cochere, separated only by a screen of potted trees.
