There’s a special kind of magic that washes over you the moment you arrive in Waikiki — that blend of ocean breeze, soft sunlight, and pure Aloha spirit. On my recent stay at the Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort and Spa, Waikiki Beach, I discovered firsthand why it’s known as the “First Lady of Waikiki.”

From its historic charm to its modern elegance, this legendary resort captures everything I love about Hawaii — and I can’t wait to share the experience (and a few exclusive perks!) with you.

A Stay Steeped in History and Aloha

The Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort and Spa, Waikiki Beach first opened its doors in 1901 and continues to stand as one of Hawaii’s most iconic beachfront hotels. Now, the resort is undergoing a stunning renovation in celebration of its 125th anniversary — a transformation that honors its storied past while introducing fresh, modern touches for today’s traveler.

From the grand Banyan Courtyard to the sweeping oceanfront views, every moment feels like a perfect balance of history, relaxation, and understated luxury.
