Ring in 2011 in Honolulu with the Kahala's First Pineapple Drop
The ball drop in Times Square is so last decade—you know it's true when it's all about gimmicks like putting Jersey Shore guidette Snooki inside of the lit-up ball, hamster-style. The New Year's Eve tradition that's fistpump-free for 2011 is the first-time pineapple drop at the Kahala Hotel &...

Partner Reviews: The Kahala Hotel & Resort
Best massage ever!
I came here for an impromptu honeymoon, even though I live here, and the spa treatment was AMAZING!!! Probably the best massage I've ever had. If you go, ask for the blonde German lady, she's very sweet and has magical hands. Can't wait to come back!
Dreamy
Just the right distance from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki, located in the secluded Kahala neighborhood. Taking naps in the king-size canopy bed with the tradewinds blowing into the room was great. Large rooms with parque wood floors and large bathrooms. Kids will love the dolphins in the lagoon. The restaurants onsite are great. We had dinner on the outside terrace overlooking the moonlit ocean while live hawaiian music played. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.
Definitely in my top 5
Wow, I was very impressed with this hotel. My room was big and nice with more amenities than I really could use. The service was fantastic, and the restaurants were great. The view from my room wasn't perfect (I saw quite a bit of roof for having a prime oceanview room), but I was paying a discount rate. By discount, we are talking $380, but actually if you have the money, this place is worth it. Oh, and it's near Waikiki, but not at Waikiki, so you get some peace and quiet.
