In keeping with the restaurant's promise of keeping things fresh, the dishes are updated seasonally. The expanded a la carte menu features signature items such as The Kahala Burger using certified angus ground beef with a fried egg, white cheddar cheese, guacamole, bacon, thinly sliced onions served with french fries and popular items such as Kahala Thin Pancakes and Grilled Ahi Sandwich.

Kahala Adventure
My daughter and I spent 5 days at the Kahala. It was a perfect place. We loved the private beach, and the pool, while small, is perfect for the size of the hotel. We wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki. We rarely left the hotel and really enjoyed our meals at the Plumeria Beach House and Hoku's. The staff was very nice and friendly. We will definitely stay here again.

First impressions were terrific! Greeted by an awesome staff as soon as you arrive. Then you walk into the lobby, gorgeous! The rooms were large, comfortable and had great views. The highlights have to be the views from the room and the staff. They were amazing, I haven't ever felt so catered to before. There suggestions for food and what/where to go were dead on. Without a doubt I plan on staying here again!

Can't imagine staying anywhere else!
We originally booked a different hotel and were excited about being right in the middle of Waikiki. We didn't realize how lucky we were when the original hotel overbooked and our travel company had to upgrade us to the Kahala! We were disappointed at first to be outside the city, but once we got there we decided we wouldn't want to be anywhere else. The location is just BEAUTIFUL (you won't experience anything like it in Waikiki). It's peaceful, you have dolphins right outside your room, a private beach (with food/drink service that comes to you while you're relaxing in the sun), and you get treated like you're truly special. And when you're ready to go to Waikiki for shopping, food or drinks, all you have to do is hop on the shuttle - it's so easy and really isn't far at all! Also, our room was amazing! We stayed in the Dolphin Wing, and our room was huge! We were on the first floor (mountain/golf course view) so we had our own private patio, perfect for coffee in the morning. Our bathroom had double sinks, a garden tub, stand up shower, and two closets. We soaked as much of the Kahala in as we could while we were there and are already looking forward to going again in the future : )

I really liked the hotel. Having its own beach was great and it was fun looking at all the dolphins stingrays and tropical fish. This was my first trip to Hawaii. The food was so so.

Kahala just beautiful
We were looking for a relaxing quiet beach with excellent dining, and found both at the Kahala. Especially enjoyed lunch on the beach, and the calm water. We never had trouble finding a comfortable private lounger and the beautiful setting is undistracted by crowds or noise- just lovely! The beds are especially comfortable, best we have experienced in many travels. Many nice touches- like popsicles and smoothies on the beach, fruit drink in the lobby, and free shuttles to malls and Waikiki.

Wonderful and luxurious resort!
We were impressed with the personal attention paid to the guests. A fresh lei and mint-scented face cloth to refresh ourselves upon arrival. Offers of ice water and smoothies while lying on the beach. Delicious food offered in the restaurants. We were very impressed with the Kahala Resort and definitely plan a return visit.

We really enjoyed the dolphins and the care that the trainers took with the people that swam with the dolphins, especially the children! The buffet breakfasts were very good and had a great variety! The hotel staff were very helpful and accommodating.
