Holding oceanfront position on Waikiki Beach and affording spectacular views towards famed Diamond Head, Halekulani has been proffering its five-star service to happy guests for more than a century. Once the playground of such discerning guests as Clark Gable and Doris Duke, it now plays temporary home to sophisticated travellers from all over the world. Freshly renovated in 2012, each of Halekulani’s rooms are of a grand scale and afford spectacular ocean views. Set among five acres of lush oceanfront gardens, the mosaic festooned freshwater pool offers guest the chance to relax and unwind, metres from the picturesque Gray’s Beach beyond.
