Located in the heart of Waikiki, 2 minutes' walk to Waikiki Beach, Halepuna Waikiki is a luxury boutique hotel surrounded by shopping and dining. The property was designed by internationally acclaimed interior design firm, Champalimaud and features works of several Hawaiian artists in partnership with The Honolulu Museum of Art public art program. Excellent location. Very modern and clean hotel with friendly staff located just a few meters from the ocean. We had a room on the 18th floor with a direct ocean view, so we enjoyed watching the sunset over the ocean while sitting on the balcony. We were also able to enjoy live Hawaiian music every night from the sister hotel Halekulani across the street. There is a very good restaurant on site so the food was excellent. There are also really good restaurants in the sister hotel Halekulani and we were able to charge everything to the room from there as well. It was also no problem to extend our stay on the day of check out as our flight was at 9pm. Overall one of the best experiences we had on our travels. Highly recommended.

We loved staying at the Village Estates the night before our wedding. The cleanest air on the island. The room was quiet, neat and clean. Very cozy cute place. The owner gave us a nice bottle of local delicious wine to help celebrate our wedding day! Thank you very much - we can’t wait to come back!

A fresh fruit bowl and signature chocolates welcome guests in each room at Halekulani - NO RESORT FEE. All guest rooms include a luxurious en suite bathroom with plush bathrobes, premium toiletries, marble vanities, deep soaking tub and a separate glassed-in shower. A flat-screen TV is also provided. Staying at Halekulani was an unforgettable experience. The hotel is elegant, peaceful, and beautifully located right on Waikiki Beach. My room was spotless, with an ocean view that took my breath away every morning. The staff were outstanding — always kind, professional, and attentive without being intrusive. Every detail, from the fresh flowers to the evening turndown service, made the stay feel special. The fact that there’s no resort fee is a rare bonus in Waikiki, and it made the experience feel even more generous. The pool, restaurants, and spa were all top-notch. I left feeling relaxed and truly cared for. I’d return without hesitation.
