Feb 12, 2025Great place to stay in Honolulu
Booked our vacation package via Costco Travel (first time ever), part of the vacation package included our hotel stay at Ka La'i Waikiki Beach. As we pulled up to check-in we were greeted immediately and the bellman assisted us with getting our luggage to our room as we checked into the hotel which was on the 6th floor. The check-in process was seamless and they thoroughly explained the amenities that the hotel provided. When we got to our room the room size was perfect and roomy we even had a fully functioning kitchen including a Nespresso machine. The bathroom was large which included a self warming Toto bidet, a huge tub and shower. We had a partial ocean view w/ a lanai which was a added perk. We ate at the Wai'olu Ocean Cuisine restaurant and the food was delicious and the wait staff was attentive. We also used their concierge service whom was very informative and professional. The valet & hotel staff was awesome as well always greeting us when you leave and arrive on property. Overall I think the property was wonderful one recommendation would be to have a bigger pool/spa for the large property and also to have more choices for dining at the hotel would be great. The location of the property was perfect within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, beach, bars and etc. Aside from that I would definitely recommend and hopefully will be back next time we are in Honolulu.

A splendid stay in the heart of Waikiki.
PROs: *Great location, 5 minutes walk to the beach and plenty shopping and food options nearby. *Room service was exceptional and extremely quick to respond. A special mention to Rona, who did a wonderful job servicing our room with the necessary things we required and always with a smile. *Majority of the staff was friendly and helpful. *Quick check-in and check-out. *Room was spacious, clean and a great view of the ocean and the Friday fireworks. *Staff was very prompt and efficient. *Unlike other hotels around the area, this property did not look old and dated. *Decent breakfast options. *Good size heated pool and spa. CONs: *Absence of showers and change rooms in the pool area, which meant we had to go to our room after each pool session. *The hallway temperature on our floor (and I'm assuming other floors too) was really cold and often we would be shivering heading to our room. Overall, Ka La'i was an amazing experience and we would definitely stay here again.

A Nice Hotel in a Good Location
Outstanding all-suite hotel with views of the ocean. The staff were helpful and very friendly. Our room was large and very comfortable. There are two restaurants, one for breakfast and one for lunch and dinner. Both are outdoors with exceptional food. The only downside was the pool. OK for a quick dip and sunbathing, too small for a swim. But the beach is only a five-minute walk and beach towels are provided. The hotel is just one block from the Beach Walk with many shops and dining options. An ABC store is right around the corner with groceries and a deli. I would definitely stay here again.

Stylish, modern hotel in the heart of Waikiki
Really enjoyed our four night stay in this modern, elegant hotel. We had a comfortable room with a large balcony overlooking the sea. The breakfasts were great and we ate one night in the restaurant which has beautiful food and a nice ambiance. Our door wouldn’t open one night. So they took us into reception and offered us a glass of wine while they fixed it. One minor criticism would be that the pool is small and not good for swimming particularly if there are kids playing but overall a great stay.

A magnificent stay & outstanding service!!!
Absolutely the most outstanding stay in Hawaii. Ka La’i has extraordinary customer focus and superb services. Tiara, a server in The wonderful restaurant with beautiful nighttime views and who also worked in the cafe was top notch, knowledgeable and caring! Gabriel, a host, also went above and beyond as did Sally. Aaron, a bellman, provided terrific help. The entire front desk knew our names and room number. Hiroshi was outstanding as well. The view from our room was extraordinary and the room was beautifully equipped. I have stayed at many hotels — Ka La’i is now at the very top of my list. Thank you for a memorable time in Honolulu at a perfect location as well.
