The Ocean Club Restaurant at the Hali'i Kai Resort is a private club accessible solely to resort residents and guests. This restaurant features outstanding views, especially at sunset, and offers a warm, 4-foot-deep saltwater pool that is ideal for both adults and children, although caution is advised near the lava rock walls. The staff is generally friendly, with many guests noting the excellent service from team members, particularly Nicolette.
Under new management since November 2024, the Ocean Club has seen significant improvements in the overall experience. Guests are encouraged to take advantage of the full-service oceanfront bar and restaurant for lunch and dinner, which includes daily specials. It is advisable to reserve a table during high seasons or on nights with live musical guests, as these events draw a great crowd. The menu features a range of appetizers, lunch, and dinner options, alongside a full bar with various blended drinks, canned beverages, beer on tap, and wine.
While the pool area may lack sufficient shade, the resort grounds are well-maintained, and the accommodations, though showing some wear, remain clean and spacious. The pool rules are typical for a resort, focusing on safety without being overly restrictive. Families can enjoy the heated pool, which includes a shallow wading area for children and deeper sections for swimming. The unique landscaping surrounding the Ocean Club enhances the relaxing atmosphere that is typical of a Hawaii vacation.
Guests who book through Costco Vacations might receive a "garden view" townhome, which is located further from the pool and the Ocean Club. This larger 1,677-square-foot floor plan can be a good fit for families. Overall, the Ocean Club Restaurant provides a delightful atmosphere and amenities, making it suitable for couples and families wishing to enjoy the beautiful Hali'i Kai Resort while being mindful of the private club's policies.
