Pros
Solar-heated Japanese foot spa with natural bamboo shade
Ground floor features blossoming flowers and planter-covered green walls
Live-edge benches and light wood accents create natural ambiance
Located along the Ala Wai Canal, used by practicing outrigger canoe teams
Cons

“In my opinion, this boutique-style Honolulu hotel distinguishes itself with its independently owned vibe and a quieter Waikiki location. The thoughtful extras, like Japanese foot spas and poolside yoga, elevate the experience, while its recent recognition as a top Hawaiian hotel further confirms its appeal. For families and couples, it seems like a solid base for exploring Waikiki Beach and other nearby attractions.”
