Hip Hawaiian hotel recalls Elvis era A $30-million renovation completed in late 2002 transformed this hotel on Waikiki's main street across from a salt-water swimming lagoon into a lively, colorful embodiment of the casual Hawaiian fun portrayed in 1960s movies. Guestrooms feature vibrant aloha-print bedspreads and headboards. Bamboo-bead curtains depicting a hula dancer partition the closet, and Indonesian teak furniture contributes richness to the decor. Color enlivens the third-floor pool terrace, where yellow-and-white lounge chairs rest on lime-and-gray striped mats. Guests vie to occupy two thickly padded pune'e (Hawaiian day beds) beside the large pool.
