Alegendary escape on the fabled shores of Waikiki, The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort — fondly known as the Pink Palace of the Pacific — has long been a playground for celebrities, royalty, and dignitaries from around the globe. Reigning over 10 acres of stunning beachfront property, the landmark resort promises a magical setting for corporate retreats.
The resort’s 78,000 square feet of event space, set just steps from the shimmering Pacific, features several unique venues. Among the most popular, the Monarch Room lends a regal feel to meetings with its elegant appointments and service-minded staff. The adjacent terrace and Ocean Lawn offer a dreamy setting for a seaside cocktail reception or traditional Hawaiian luau. The resort’s expert planners can assist with any event essentials, from arranging theme dinners to orchestrating island tours and group activities.
Recreational options abound onsite and off. Guests can sign up for a range of water sports, jog along the surrounding nature trails, play a round of championship golf, or relax at the resort’s Abhasa Spa.
The 528 upgraded rooms and suites provide further reason to stay on the property. Luxurious accommodations in the Historic Wing and Mailani Tower feature high ceilings, bold and indulgent design, Luxury Collection bedding, flat-screen TVs, and deluxe bath amenities. Guests may cap the evening with tropical drinks at the famous Mai Tai Bar; an oceanside dinner at the world-class Azure Restaurant, which features only the finest and freshest seafood; or an outdoor feast at the twice-weekly Aha’Aina luau.

The Royal Hawaiian has always been at the heart of Waikiki, but now it is the heartbeat of Waikiki! It became my home, and the staff became my family. I never wanted to leave.

We just wrapped up our first-ever offshore Elite Meetings Alliance and The Royal Hawaiian was our host hotel for the event. All elements from the conference service staff, meeting room spaces, accommodations for our staff and our attendees, food & beverage, event decor, to the receptions throughout the 3-day event were top-notch. The hotel is absolutely gorgeous since its 2009 relaunch after a major renovation. The location is great for all attendees for recreation time- whether they want the "true Hawaii" experience of Waikiki beach, R&R at the Mai Tai bar, or great shopping on the main strip just outside the hotel. And, because it is between the Sheraton and the Moana Surfrider there are plenty of additional options for venue changes, meeting space options, etc. I can't say enough about the service- The Royal manages to deliver kind, efficient and sincere hospitality without being stuffy or contrived. Our attendees and our staff felt very well taken care of and were extremely pleased with the outcome of the event overall. A perfect 10!
