TRUMP INTERNATIONAL HOTEL WAIKIKI is a model for luxury in the Hawaiian capital of Honolulu. It is the first and only Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Hotel on the island of Oahu, and has clinched the top spot in TripAdvisor’s list of best hotels in Honolulu since October 2010 – a badge of honor that reflects its lasting popularity.

Guests can look out over the turquoise waters of the Pacific Ocean that stretch out beyond Fort DeRussy Beach Park, as well as the stunning Ko’olau Mountain Range.

Deluxe two-bedroom ocean view suite

Whether you opt for a Guest Room or a Suite, accommodations at Trump International are very spacious, a luxury that’s sometimes difficult to come by on the busy Waikiki strip. The Deluxe rooms offer your choice of city or ocean views, but both options are equipped with Italian marble deep-soaking tubs, and a kitchenette well stocked with cookware and dinnerware.

The Suites come in one, two, and three bedrooms, and can sleep up to eight guests – perfect for a family getaway or an intimate soiree among friends. Guests can enjoy the privacy of separate bedrooms, but still make use of the communal living area, a combination that’s rare in other Waikiki hotels.

Just like a private apartment, the Suites also offer the amenities of a gourmet kitchen. This means families that want to fly out for Christmas or Thanksgiving dinner only need to book a suite for a unique opportunity to enjoy the Hawaiian backdrop but still maintain family holiday traditions. Suites also include washer/dryer units with complimentary detergent.

In fact, Trump International goes above and beyond for families, especially those with kids. There are child-sized robes and bedroom slippers in rooms which offer adorable photo opportunities for parents.

On top of that, kids get a special stuffed toy of a protected Hawaiian species, with the turtle being this year’s chosen cuddly animal. They also get a book that contains information about the protected species, making it both fun and educational.

But of course, it’s not just the kids that get special attention. Couples too can request for romantic services, such as a private dinner in their room. Staff can prepare a special course meal at your balcony during sunset, a great option if you’re looking to mark a honeymoon, anniversary or pop the question.

To further provide a personalized service, guests can select the “Trumptations” offer, where staff will bring out each course separately. This resembles proper restaurant service, except that guests needn’t leave the comfort of their room.

What truly sets the hotel apart is the Trump Attaché, a bespoke service that goes beyond the standard concierge or butler to offer personalized attention tailored to each guest. Attaché reach out to guests prior to their stay to begin the customized experience. VIP assistance is offered even before guests ask, a sign of deeply intuitive and highly professional staff.

The Attaché could mean guests get dining recommendations and reservations, museum and attractions tickets sorted out, personal shopping services, floral arrangements on request, personal training, nanny and pet-walking services, and personal messenger services.

If spending a holiday dinner at Trump International, guests can even go as far as to request for their fridge to be stocked up with preferred ingredients before they arrive. Dietary restrictions and allergies are noted and are taken care of in dining outlets. If traveling with babies, parents can also choose to have their room baby-proofed.

The hotel is not short of dining outlets, with the standout being WAI’OLU Ocean View Lounge, a relaxing tapas lounge where local cuisine is fused with international flavors. Don’t forget to stop by the Waikiki bar to experience the “Liquid Artistry of Wai’olu” – specialty cocktails concocted with fresh ingredients.

Guests can also wind down at The Spa at Trump, which includes services like bamboo exfoliation treatment, jet lag recovery massage, and fascial stretch therapy. Couples can opt for the Hawaiian Enchantment Couples Treatment, featuring a massage and bath therapy that makes use of Hawaii’s own pikake and koke’e flowers.

Whether it’s for a family getaway or a romantic escapade, Trump International Hotel Waikiki is the place that has it all, and a little bit more.
