PLUMERIA BEACH HOUSE LUNCH - THE KAHALA HOTEL AND RESORT

Loved sitting on the lanai at the Plumeria Beach House even though the weather was kind of rainy and windy.  The food, service and view were still excellent.  I went for the Chef's Onion Soup which is covered in a mountain of Cheese. Followed that up with the Beach House Salad with Crab and Shrimp.  Not a fan of the lettuce they use but the Seafood and Veggies were fresh and delicious.  My Wife went for the Kahala Burger and she said it was good.

Seems like the Plumeria Beach House Buffet was closed for years due to COVID.  Well it is back now in a great way.  The food is awesome and while there is plenty to choose from, they focus on quality and not quantity.  EVERYTHING I tried was delicious.  One of my favorite buffets ever.  Started with a delicious Beet Salad with some fresh Sashimi and Sushi.  Then onto some chilled Shrimp with Cocktail Sauce.  Heaven already.  Next up was the Prime Rib along with some Miso Butterfish and Orange Chicken. All superb.  The star of the show as the Crab Legs.  Super meaty, sweet and delicious.  A big surprise that everyone loved was the Cauliflower with Peas and Pesto.  Wow...good and I did go back for seconds.  This was an incredible dinner with a nice ocean view.  Loved it!

For my birthday weekend, my Wife planned a weekend getaway which I thought would be at our condo in Waikiki.  When she insisted on driving to the condo, I knew something was up.  She said that our condo was booked so she made reservations at a hotel.  I was thinking the Royal Hawaiian Hotel as we had just enjoyed lunch there a few weeks ago.  She drove the car towards Kahala and I knew we were staying at the Kahala Hotel and Resort.  I was happy because this is one of my favorite places on Oahu because it truly does feel like you are on another Island far away from the hustle and bustle of Waikiki.  To my surprise she booked a suite overlooking the pool and ocean.  So perfect and so beautiful.  My Daughter and our dog Sunny joined us for the weekend which made it even more special and enjoyable.  Staying at the Kahala was as good as getting away to Kauai, Maui or the Big Island and heck it is only minutes from home.  We all loved our stay here and want to go back again for another weekend getaway.  The resort is beautiful, peaceful and waking up to the sunrise over the beach fronting the hotel is pure heaven.  I enjoyed having a cup of coffee sitting on the lanai at sunrise and then walking along the uncrowded beach. The hotel and restaurant staffs were all  smiles, friendly and seemed very thankful that we were staying with them during the pandemic.  The hotel and restaurant industries have been decimated so it felt good to be able to give them some business.  It was also nice to get out of the house and enjoy a little time really enjoying our Island paradise.  The Kahala is a special place like no other on Oahu.  It transports you to another place. My Wife commented while looking out over the beach into the glistening water "is there any place we have been in the World as beautiful as this?" she asked.  I thought and said no.
