Accommodations
Winter is peak season in Hawai’i, so we recommend booking your travels and accommodations far in advance!
See below for our recommended hotels. Regardless of where you stay, we suggest renting a car if you plan on staying for an extended time and adventuring the island.
If you want a Hawaii packaged trip, you can reach out to April, our preferred travel advisor (april@travelchicworld.com); service fees may apply.
WAIKIKI HOTELS
We recommend staying in Waikiki if you’d like to be closer to town and the pre-wedding festivities, like the welcome party. Waikiki is great for the friends that plan on coming early and want to spend time exploring the island from a central location. Sunako & James will be staying near Waikiki prior to the wedding weekend. Below are a couple hotels we recommend, however, there are plenty of others to chose from in the area.
Laylow
The LayLow is a boutique hotel just a few blocks away from Beach and centrally located in Waikiki. We love the LayLow for it’s swanky yet chill vibe and for it’s great restaurant, the Hide Out.
‘Alohilani
‘Alohilani Resort is situated on the beachfront in Waikiki, within walking distance of many popular restaurants, shops, and attractions in Waikiki.
KO OLINA HOTELS
We recommend staying in Ko Olina if you’re looking for a more resort, laid back feel. Ko Olina is also great for families as there is a very safe and swimmable lagoon onsite! Ko Olina is where the ceremony and reception will be located and where Sunako & James will be staying during the wedding weekend. Ko’olina is about a 45 minute drive from town and Waikiki. Below are two hotels with room blocks for discounted rates nearby our venue.
Four Seasons
Needless of an introduction, The Four Seasons Ko Olina sits on Oahu’s western coast (steps away from our wedding venue), with vast ocean views and beautiful pools and lagoons. To book at our room block with discounted rates, please call 808-679-0079 or email reservations.oahu@fourseasons.com and mention Sunako Remillard & James Barranco Wedding.
Aulani
To stay in Ko Olina without the Four Seasons price tag, check out the Aulani. The Aulani is the Disney Hotel that is also steps away from our venue. While we are not necessarily the Disney type, it is a great option for family and friends looking to stay near the wedding in Ko Olina. To book at our room block with discounted rates, please call (407) 939-4686 and mention Sunako Remillard & James Barranco Wedding or follow the link below (either room type works!).
