What guests think

The Kahala Hotel and Resort draws strong praise for its quiet, scenic beachfront setting and exceptionally friendly staff, delivering a serene alternative to Waikiki with well‑kept grounds and relaxing common areas.

Several reviews note dated decor, worn furnishings, or maintenance problems in some rooms, even as views can be excellent. Dining feedback is mixed: food can be very good, but prices are high and some venues have limited hours or selection. Facilities earn praise for the calm beach, but common complaints include a kid‑busy pool, limited shuttle service, pricey parking, and ethical concerns about the on‑site dolphins. Overall, expect a serene, service‑forward resort best for travelers seeking quiet over nightlife.

Wow , our two week stay at the Kahala hotel was one we will always cherish. The hotel is immaculate and gorgeous. The chandeliers in the lobby look like they are made from beautiful sea glass , and every plant inside and outside is lush and maintained . The staff is so kind and welcoming . Shoutout to Randy the server from Plumeria and Carolynn from the front desk! Located on a private beach you can walk all the way down and find sea shells , we even saw a turtle and a monk seal! The pool and hot tub is 24 hours so definitely take advantage. I recommend renting a car if you want to go to other beaches such as Waikīkī (10-15 min easy drive) , and the valet at Kahala is helpful and efficient . We had no issues . Overall I would come back to Kahala hotel and resort again.

The only downside to this hotel is the distance from Waikiki and that’s not necessarily a bad thing depending on what you want. The staff here is very nice. The rooms are clean and spacious. Bathroom has a bidet. Tub could be bigger to fit two people easier but still bigger than most. Room was very quiet all day. Tons of things to do at hotel as well as places to eat. 24/7 pool and hot tub! Great place to be if you want to get away and relax.

Beautiful hotel and quiet location, restaurants were all amazing and a special mention to Les at verandah and Hannah at arrancino,, from the moment you walk in and take in the ambience and smell is beautiful. Inky disappointing thing was carpet in our room was rather dirty and there is not enough shade around pool or beach areas, could not use umbrellas for days due to wind and ended up getting burnt which was disappointing.

This resort can easily be the most incredible vacation destination on Oahu. The staff is amazing, friendly and accommodating. The restaurants are superb. The rooms are spacious and clean. There are a couple of things that were not positive. First and foremost, you need to understand that this is a luxury hotel and NOTHING is inexpensive. Food is good but very overpriced. The spa is a little scattered with the therapy rooms separate from check in which is the other side of the resort from the fitness center and steam rooms and spa tubs. But the most noticeable issue is the pool. It is completely overrun by kids. There is nowhere to rest peacefully or relax. The hot tub is always filled with screaming 8 year olds and the pool area is also kid dominated. That is wonderful if you are traveling as a family. But if you are doing a couples romantic getaway, you will not be happy at the pool… so said many to us as we tolerated the kids. It would be wonderful if the pool attendants just managed the hot tub or asked the kids parents to control their own. It would be amazing if they made a few cabanas to isolate a little. But honestly without an actual “adult only” pool… for the money, I will probably go somewhere else next time. Which is sad, because I love this resort.

Forget this overpriced resort if you plan to swim in the pool! I spent three nights at this property and could not use the only pool at all since it was monopolized by kids the entire day until 7.00 pm!! They have no limited kids hours policy. Further, the dining in options are limited to an independent run Italian restaurant and a high priced French restauran and Lobby area, with the main restaurant being open two days a week (Tuesdays. and Thursdays). Also, the hotel shuttle bus to Waikiki only operates twice daily so most days you have to pay an Uber $30 to drive you there. They also don’t serve meals/drinks on the beach area and you have walk to the Beach restaurant near the pool. Service was generally good, with the exception of the Concierge who could rarely be found!

The room carpet was very dirty and furniture was all scratched up and damaged. The property was very old and dated . it does smell like old property and dusty. I requested a room change after first night. They were not able to accommodate my request. They can change to upgrade with additional 300 per night. finally second day they are able to change the room, but the condition was pretty much the same. so if you asked me if I would stay there again, unfortunately I wouldn’t stay there again. The property is beautiful, but the room condition is horrible. It’s not a five star.

Let's start with the room. Unfortunately, it was far from what we expected. The room was dated and appeared to be in need of some serious renovations. The worn-down carpets and the presence of mold in the bathroom were major turn-offs. Moreover, the toilet was less than satisfactory since it had an issue with its plumbing, which was quite surprising for a hotel of this caliber. Our experience with room service didn't fare much better. The food we ordered was not only tasteless but also arrived cold, which was unexpected for a resort of this reputation. It felt like the quality was comparable to that of a dive bar, which was a letdown considering the food' cost. On a more positive note, we did enjoy our dining experience at the Plumeria restaurant. The food there was excellent, and the wait staff was attentive and friendly. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the dolphin enclosure, which provided a unique and memorable experience. Additionally, the resort's access to a calm shoreline was a major plus, especially for families with young children. In terms of the staff, we found them to be very kind and accommodating. However, when I raised my concerns upon checking out and expressed my disappointment with the room quality, I received a rather monotone apology with no effort made to address or rectify the issues. It would have been appreciated if they had made some effort to provide compensation to make up for the subpar accommodations. (P.S. We're undercover reviewers)

It makes me sad to leave this beautiful, peaceful place. The Kahala is certainly one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at—at least recently. From the valet staff to the front desk to the servers and housekeepers, the Kahala provides excellent and friendly service. The location is convenient—close enough to Waikiki, diamond head, and other tourist spots but not too close to the noise and crowds. Our view was fantastic—we had a spacious balcony overlooking the pristine golf course next door and the mountains. Our room was spacious and incredibly comfortable. The Plumeria was great and there were a handful of other restaurants but I do wish they had more lunch and brunch options as a lot of them opened only for dinner. Their beach was also wonderful—calm and incredibly relaxing, providing plenty of space to reflect and take in the amazing ocean views. I certainly would want to come back and stay here again should I come back to town!

Great location but the hotel looks very tired and a bit tacky in places. The decor needs an update.

Too many weddings also meaning half the hotel was inaccessible.

Disappointed With Room Assignment – Not What We Booked We booked the *Ocean Front Lanai* with **2 twin beds**, expecting a view of the resort pool and *Kahala Beach* as described. However, upon arrival, we were given an *Ocean View Lanai* with **only one king bed** and a view that overlooked the **parking lot**, not the ocean. This was especially disappointing as the *Ocean Front* room was more expensive than the *Ocean View*, and we had specifically chosen it for the view and bed configuration. We brought this to the attention of the staff, but unfortunately, the issue wasn't resolved during our stay. The rest of the resort was beautiful and well-kept, but the mismatch between what we booked and what we received significantly impacted our experience.

Second time there... I had the Dolphin Lanai. Leaky pipe on lanai. Flickering bulb in room. Asked to be replaced. Didn't happen. I was asked several times if I had a room there. Didn't hear anyone else get asked. For example - there was a line for lounge chairs. Couple of people in front of me and no one asked them if they were guest. But soon as I walked up I was asked! Phones don't work but they charged you for them anyways! Wallpapers peeling off! 60 years its been around. Maybe it should retire early! Staying at Turtle Bay next time! Way better and newer facilities. Also was made to sit at the bar to eat because we didn't have a reservation even though there were empty tables...? Seems like certain people aren't treated well there!

Disappointed for the price of the stay. Was expecting to be blown away by the experience of staying there but the main draw of the hotel is really the beach which is public. Pool bar food was maybe some of the worst hotel food I’ve ever had. $80 for a cold grilled cheese, box of gross chips with salsa and some fish tacos that were unflavored and covered in mayo type sauce. You’re pretty much stuck at the resort without a car so have to Uber out or schedule the shuttle far in advance to get out. Would stay in Waikiki and Uber to this beach next time and skip staying or eating here all together. The beach itself is perfect for kids but the resort itself is not kid friendly.
