If you’re not familiar with the famous Halekulani Hotel in Waikiki, let me tell you about “House Befitting Heaven.” The luxurious Hawaii resort has won prestigious awards too numerous to mention – and is iconic for a lot of things – but let me tell you about the popovers. I stayed at the famous hotel more than 25 years ago – and I’m still thinking about the yummy breakfast popovers, which have been served there to guests for more than 100 years. They are simply made with flour, eggs, salt, milk, and served with poha berry jam (a type of orange gooseberry). And let me tell you – they are super delicious.

Well, now there is even more to love about The Halekulani – especially the pool. Overlooking Waikiki Beach, Halekulani’s Orchid Pool is recognized globally for its award-winning design including 1.2 million individual pieces of glass mosaic tiles imported from South Africa that form the iconic Cattleya Orchid.

But don’t think you’re just going to lie there and soak up the beautiful, warm, Waikiki sunshine. Every other hour, The Halekulani offers pool-goers a complimentary assortment of terrific treats made in-house such as morning muffins, fresh fruit, cookies, popsicles, and water. Throughout the day, poolside guests are also able to order craft cocktails from Earl’s Pool Bar and exclusive poolside items from House Without A Key. Make sure to order one of the hotel’s famous Mai Tais. (They are made with Bacardi Gold Rum, Lemon Hart 151 Rum, Bacardi Select, and fresh juice.) Organic Coola Sunscreen is available and complimentary.

Right now, in an exciting new debut, right there at the pool, outside — a little fanfare please – you can relax with a Knesko, groundbreaking, gem-infused, science-backed, collagen hydrogel mask, to be enjoyed while lying back in your comfortable chaise lounge. What is a Knesko mask, you ask? Well, in just saying that, my heart skipped a beat.

Knesko Skin is one of the world’s greatest — and most successful – luxury beauty brands, beloved by celebrities such as Madonna and Pamela Anderson, endorsed by celebrity make-up artists, and offered exclusively at more than 1,000 five-star hotel spas around the globe. And now, at The Halekulani Orchid Pool, they have introduced a special, adorable Knesko wheeled cart all set up amidst the palm trees, with its own white branded umbrella, where you can purchase these exclusive and award-winning eye masks and face masks — so that you, too, can have facial skin like an A-lister in Hollywood. So you, too, can rebalance, and rejuvenate. (Interestingly, Knesko face and eye masks are also available in the minibars at The Conrad Los Angeles, so you can totally
