Opulist, the curated guide to the most beautiful places to stay, eat, and drink, selected The Laylow Waikiki as one of ten standout resorts and restaurants across the Hawaiian Islands, chosen for design, setting, and rooms worth booking a trip around.
The edit highlights the hotel's playful mix of mid-century modern style and tropical color, from the graphic monstera mural and architectural bamboo backdrop in the lobby to the in-pool loungers and sculptural rattan ottomans outside. Opulist also notes the hotel's dog-friendly, family-welcoming approach and its on-site cocktail bar.
The Laylow Waikiki is featured alongside Mauna Lani, Kona Village, A Rosewood Resort, The Ritz-Carlton Oʻahu, Turtle Bay, and 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay.
