Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort

Overview of Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa Traditions established by Queen Lili'uokalani, the last Hawaiian monarch, continue to flourish at our resort. home over view -- -- Let us show you exclusive offers & updates tailored to your interests. resort services fast facts testimonials map & directions A century ago, Queen Lili'uokalani, the last Hawaiian monarch, inherited the lands at Hamohamo, the area in which the Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort now stands, from her grandfather, 'Aikanaka. The land on which the Hotel is directly built was once the Ku'ekaunahi stream, which ran through the Queen's property. There were two summer homes on Lili'uokalani's property, one called Kealohilani and the other Paoakalani (literally translated as "heavenly fragrance"). Here she retreated to relax and informally entertain family, friends, and on occasion, visiting royalty. She also spent much of her time composing her songs and translating Hawaiian stories into English, surrounded by lily ponds and elaborate gardens, and when the trade winds blew, the fragrance of the topical flowers was carried throughout the estate. According to Queen Lili'uokalani, the large inviting living room was a place where "all could gather in joy and hospitality." Her home served as a comforting getaway from the pressures of business at I'olani Palace, several miles away. Nearby stood another one-story guest cottage, Kealohilani ("heavenly brightness"), where visitors enjoyed the tranquility of old Hawaii. In 1966, the Lili'uokalani Trust revealed plans for turning 16 acres of "old Waikiki" into a multi-million dollar resort development. American International Travel Services, Inc. (AITS) broke ground at this site in 1968 with plans for a twin towers, 23-story hotel at a cost of $12 million. Only one tower was initially completed. In October 1971, and at a cost of close to double the original estimate, the hotel officially opened. The grand opening ceremony took place on February 9-10, 1972. Reverend Abraham Akaka of the Kawaiahao Church conducted the blessing in the Garden Courtyard and Princess Abigail Kawananakoa, the niece of the late Queen Lili'uokalani, ceremoniously untied the maile lei. Eight years later, in 1979, the Kuhio Tower was added to the Resort, bringing the total room count to 1,346. In November 2000, Marriott International, Inc. assumed management of the hotel. Today, the area surrounding the resort bears little resemblance to the neighborhood at the turn of the century, but the traditions established by the queen continues to flourish at our resort.

While you’re looking at a beautiful sunset view from Kula on the island of Maui (courtesy of Scott Waters ), this is actually the dawn of a new day on NahenaheNet. I’m moving all of my content from the content management system that I’ve been using to maintain NahenaheNet for the past 6 years, Manila , to this new WordPress system. There are a lot of things about Manila that I will miss, and some things that WordPress can do better. It was a tough decision, but necessary and timely for other reasons. You can visit the new NahenaheNet blog at http://www.mauicast.net/nahenahe/ and perhaps you would like to bookmark that page. This page will remain here at http://www.nahenahe.net/ , and will contain periodic changes and important notices. The RSS feed for the NahenaheNet Hawaiian Music Podcast is located at: http://www.nahenahe.net/podcasts/NNPodcasts.xml I’d like to offer my sincere mahalo (thanks) to Dave Winer, Brett Simmons, Jake Savin, Lawrence Lee and everyone else I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with at Userland Software . NahenaheNet’s site maintenance was housed on their EditThisPage.com system for just over six years at no charge. They are pioneers in making writing on the Internet easy and fun, and first-class people all around. It’s been a pleasure working with you over the years, and I’ll continue to use RadioUserland for some projects. But for NahenaheNet, it was simply time for a change. Nahenahe.Net is © Keola Donaghy.
