"This ultra-exclusive, nine-suite hotel places privacy and personalized service front and center—each suite occupies a full floor, offers expansive ocean views, and includes butler service—and is just steps from Waikiki Beach. Guests receive priority seating at a 34-seat restaurant led by a celebrated local chef and featuring a six-course tasting menu that spotlights Hawaiian ingredients (examples include poke with caviar, kona kampachi with coconut-avocado mousse, and Maui venison with a black garlic–blueberry gastrique)." - Corina Quinn
