Hi Everyone, So I finally came around to writing the review about our Honeymoon stay at JW Ihliani. We went around Nov 2011. Me & my husband were very excited to stay at the resort, we did a lot of research before we booked and read all the reviews here on trip advisor. We stayed there for about 12 days... More

We had been to the Ihilani before for a wedding and walked through it, but this was our first time actually staying here. First some standard information about Ko 'Olina hotels. You're on the western side of the island, far from Honolulu. This side of the island is more arid. Temperatures are a bit hotter, there is less rain and... More

This is our second trip to this very nice property. My wife and I spent four great days at this resort. Our room was facing the ocean on the top floor and the views and sounds from the balcony were priceless. Lagoon snorkling was very disappointing since water was not very warm and visibility was poor. Staff at breakfast restaurant... More

We stayed as part of a large group that rented much of the hotel. This was our fifth trip with previous stays at mostly Ritz Carlton. In my opinion this hotel was way better than our experiences at Ritz. We had a deluxe ocean view on the quiet side overlooking the lagoon of stingrays. I could have sat on the... More

Hotel is modern but rooms are worn out. Staff is great, rooms are large, and love the shark lagoon. Outside of hotel desperately needs a paint job. Private lot ( not the laui) next to hotel on lagoon side hosts parties on saturday nights. Very, very loud music until 10pm. Breakfast buffett was delicious and had a nice tranquil atmosphere....

This is a really nice hotel. My wife and I spent three night there after four in Waikiki at the Trump. Both the Lagoon and pool were great and the room was excellent. This an expense hotel, however, and at $380 per/night its pretty typical for a Hawaii resort.In terms of restaurants, the Japanese is superb. We had the buffet... More

I had the privilege of staying here for free, thanks to my boyfriend making his sales quota. It is a great hotel with an awesome beach cove perfect for swimming, snorkeling, paddle surfing, and just vegging out on. It's a resort, so everything is pricey. Room service is great! The fruit plate with banana bread is awesome! Lots of fruit... More

The service was top notch and the resort was very quiet and very elegant without any stuffiness. We enjoyed our stay very much and would definitely come back, given the opportunity. More

Check was fast and friendly. I was also upgraded to an ocean front. Staff is super friendly. Ko Olina is the best area to visit on the island of Oahu. More

This place was good just because it was quieter than Waikiki beach. Compared with regular JW hotels, it looked much simpler... Terrific thing was we enjoyed new year's eve fireworks there, was launched right above our eyes over the little bay, it was very exciting and magnificent. The food at the restaurant inside the hotel was outrageous due to the... More
