As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
While there are plenty of adventures to be had and places to visit across the Hawaiian Islands, sometimes you just want to stay close to home and relax. If lounging by the pool, sipping cocktails, and never setting foot off hotel grounds sounds like your kind of vacation, you’re in luck: the Laylow Waikiki is the super chic hotel you’ve been dreaming of.
Let’s take a look at this beautiful hotel sure to fuel your wanderlust, shall we?
Forget tourist cliches. The Laylow is different. Surrounded by lush flora yet open to the breeze, this urban oasis with a modern twist and stylish details around every corner is the ultimate staycation destination — and these photos prove it.
The 1960s-inspired decor is phenomenally executed in every corner of the hotel — from the guest rooms themselves to the coffee shop, pool, and everywhere in between. It’s like an HGTV fantasy come to life.
One of Waikiki’s newest hotels is also one of the best. And while it is close enough to all of the attractions, sights, shopping, and restaurants this famous tourist hot spot has to offer, you don’t need to set foot off the property if you don’t want to. You see, this ethereal little hotel has it all — from modern comforts to luxurious amenities.
Each of the 251 guest rooms is outfitted with king beds and include a private lanai. Oh, and did we mention how incredibly stylish the rooms are? The tropical wallpaper is a retro touch that stands out in a crowd of similarly-decorated Waikiki hotels.
While the guest rooms are sweet, you won’t want to leave the pool while you’re here. This picturesque communal gathering place is the ultimate amenity: it’s surrounded by lush greenery, and features relaxing lounge seating, teak accents, hanging plants, and woven lanterns. With a relaxed tiki vibe, you could spend your entire vacation poolside. Did we mention you’ll enjoy complimentary shave ice?
In the warm, greenhouse-style restaurant, Hideout, enjoy an eclectic and healthy menu full of fresh seafood and farm-to-table dishes in a cozy yet upscale environment.
If we can’t convince you that this hotel is the ultimate Hawaiian getaway, maybe the Laylow’s website can:
"Come hang at our secluded oasis, where laying low is raised to an art form." If that doesn’t convince you, I’m not sure what will.
Out-of-this-world service, nostalgic details, a tropical garden setting, and all of the modern comforts you could ask for in a hotel make this a one-of-a-kind vacation destination you’re sure to love — whether you’re visiting from the mainland or enjoying a much-needed staycation.
Not sold on staying at the Laylow but still want to experience Waikiki? Why not check out one of Hawaii’s most iconic hotels — perhaps the Royal Hawaiian or the Moana Surfrider — instead?
