## About the hotel
The Kahala opened in January 1964 as the Kahala Hilton, the first major luxury resort on Oahu built outside Waikiki, set on a private beach beside the Waialae Country Club. It became a favoured retreat for heads of state and film stars, hosting eight American presidents, Queen Elizabeth II and the Dalai Lama among its guests over six decades. Renamed several times under different owners, it now operates independently as The Kahala Hotel & Resort under the Japanese hospitality group Resorttrust.
