ABOUT THE SETTING
Since opening its 400-room, $4 million dollar property in 1927, the “Pink Palace of the Pacific,” a.k.a., Royal Hawaiian Hotel, a Luxury Collection Resort, has been a Waikiki institution, hosting an elite guest registry from Hawaiian kings to the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. Named “Best Historic Resort” for 2014, the regal, coral-hued resort affixed upon King Kamehameha’s former playground occupies 10 pristine beachfront acres along Waikiki’s sparkling shoreline. A recent $85 million dollar renovation expanded the room capacity to 528, returning the Pink Palace to its glory days when the Royal Hawaiian Orchestra entertained high-profile clientele nightly on the grounds. While you may not enjoy 1927’s $12 starting nightly room rate, the magic, legend and time-honored allure of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel are certainly worth celebrating.
