The Four Seasons Resort at Ko Olina is hands-down my favorite place to vacation on O’ahu.

Give me a beautiful beach-side infinity pool (with a cabana or an umbrella, please and thank you) and really good food, and I am perfectly content.

We’ve stayed at the property a few times a year since it opened in summer 2016, and I wish we could go every month. It’s only 30 minutes from Waikiki and yet feels like you’ve escaped away from it all—it is so relaxing and beautiful.

Adults can enjoy beach yoga, stand-up paddleboarding, and access to the no-kids-allowed infinity pool. There’s also a separate pool for families with a little sandy area that kids love. The lagoons are super kid-friendly too. Guests have access to preferred tee times at the Ko Olina golf club, and there’s shopping on-site and across the street at the Ko Olina Center and Station. Also, Wi-Fi is free, and they don’t charge one of those super-annoying “resort fees”—YAY!

Four Seasons Ko Olina – Room Photos

The Four Seasons Resort at Ko Olina has 371 guest rooms. Each room is 640 square feet or larger and feels spacious—but really, it’s the view that makes the room. It’s just as pretty in person as it looks in photos.

Bathrooms are classic marble with modern glass showers and are HUGE. They’ve made some brand changes over time—early stays included Italian bath products, but recent visits featured Bulgari bath amenities. The kid’s bath products also switched from Honest to One Planet.

Noteworthy for Families

Stays include a complimentary Kid’s Club for children aged 5 and up, while kids under 5 eat free. There are also movie nights and glamping (luxury camping on the grounds) for kids aged 5-12. You can ask your concierge about access to Disney’s Aulani resort next door for a fee.

A diaper pail and crib were waiting in our room upon check-in—so helpful! Past baby welcome gifts have included stuffed animals, books, and a baby lovey.

Dining at the Four Seasons Ko Olina

• La Hiki: Breakfast buffet features American, Chinese, and Japanese dishes. Highly recommended for mornings.
• Noe: Open for dinner only. The pasta with shaved truffles is a dream come true. Fresh pasta is a revelation!
• Mina’s Fish House: Great for happy hour with live music. We loved the cold beer and good food. Babies dancing to the music made it even better!
