It is incredibly new and beautiful.
With a world view based on white, the sense of being in an extraordinary space is top-class.

With things like the live saxophone performance at sunset, "Sounds of Sunset,"
the "memorable experiences" are overwhelming.

How to choose without fail (Important)

If you get this wrong, you will regret it👇

✔ 1. Decide based on "Who you are going with"

・Couples → Quiet/Atmosphere
・With children → Ease of movement/Facilities
・Reward trip → Satisfaction-focused

✔ 2. Decide based on "What you want to do"

・Relax at the hotel → Busena/Ritz
・Photos/Instagrammable → Halekulani
・Play/Sightseeing → Location-focused

✔ 3. Decide based on "Whether you want to make memories"

This is the most important part.

👉 "Can you see yourself wanting to go back?"
