Soak up views from the lanais (verandas) of the Rockwell Group-designed guestrooms and suites — city vistas, ocean panoramas, or lush mountain views spread out before you. Elegant, airy guestrooms cultivate calm and relaxation with a neutral palette, warm wood, and cool marble; coffee makers come with custom-blended coffee and tea.

The magnificent lobby, with its coral wall sculpture and oceanarium, is the base for knowledgeable concierge staff who can help arrange golf, watersports, and excursions. Browse the in-house boutiques for authentic Hawaiian souvenirs. Little touches — complimentary water bottles to refill at stations around the resort, live entertainment, and even surfboard storage — make a big impact.

The exclusive Longboard Club provides access to even more experiences and amenities, such as a daily breakfast with design-your-own acai bowls, exclusive lounge areas with fire pits and private cabanas offering views of Diamond Head, a selection of evening hors d'oeuvres, a 16-bottle wine Cruvinet, and homemade desserts.
