Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa

Rooms blend classic island details with airy modern touches, from teak furnishings and white bedding to balconies overlooking Waikiki or the Pacific. Accommodations range from traditional spaces in the historic Banyan Wing to contemporary Tower Wing rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and spacious lanais, while the Surfrider Wing embraces Waikiki's surf culture with beach loft-inspired design, vibrant colors, and locally inspired artwork.

Start the day with the breakfast buffet at The Veranda, then return for its signature afternoon tea beneath the resort's century-old banyan tree. Beachhouse at the Moana serves seafood and coastal fare beside the water, while Vintage 1901 offers wine, cocktails, and live piano music in the historic lobby.

Moana Lani Spa offers oceanfront treatments inspired by Hawaiian healing traditions in a peaceful setting above the shoreline. Between appointments, spend the afternoon beside the freshwater pool, settle into a shaded lounger beneath the banyan tree, or join a morning yoga session on the Diamond Lawn.

Start the day with a traditional Hoala sunrise ceremony before exploring Waikiki’s beaches, boutiques, and surf breaks nearby. The resort also hosts lei-making workshops with local artisans and guided historical tours that trace the property’s role in Waikiki’s early resort era.
