Concierge.com's insider take:
After 100 years in this prime Waikiki beachfront spot, the Halekulani has grown to 455 rooms—but it still manages to feel like the most intimate, peaceful hotel on the island. There's an excellent spa offering lavender-orchid body wraps and hibiscus-infused scalp massage, and a special Vera Wang–designed honeymoon suite, but even the basic amenities are pretty lavish. For instance, all Halekulani guests have VIP access to some of Honolulu's top cultural attractions, like the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra and Shangri La, the Doris Duke estate. And everyone has access to the attentive service, the small slice of beach, and the superb swimming pool, mosaic-tiled with a picture of an enormous orchid. The rooms, all outfitted in soothing blue and cream tones, have large lanais for taking in the ocean view. Be sure to pick up the wonderful body products scented with maile, a fragrant Hawaiian vine, at the on-site spa boutique.
