Hospitality Perfection at Halekulani in Honolulu

In our travels for business and pleasure, we have had the opportunity to experience what now amounts to hundreds of luxury properties. Many of our visits are short, one or two nights, with most time spent in conferences or offices and a lack of vitamin D. These ‘quickies’ give you a feel for décor, topline service, and usually a snippet of their F&B prowess (especially when you are fortunate enough to dine with the GM!). But to really appreciate the essence of a property requires an in-depth period of a week or more.
