Waikiki, Hawaii - The Outrigger Reef on the Beach is emerging from its metamorphosis, with guests of this beachfront property now enjoying their first taste of the brand new Pacific Tower and its 403 brand-new guest rooms and 33 enlarged suites. The opening of the tower marks the beginning of the final phase of the upscale hotel's $110 million transformation project.
"Guests who have previously stayed in our Pacific Tower will not recognize the new rooms, except perhaps the views from the windows and lanai," said Bill Comstock, general manager of the Outrigger Reef. "The Pacific Tower was gutted and completely rebuilt into larger guest rooms with beautiful new interiors and an array of modern amenities. After the long wait, we're thrilled to have guests enjoying our new tower, and initial feedback has been extremely enthusiastic."
Sporting a tasteful blend of contemporary and cultural décor, Outrigger Reef's new guest rooms and suites come with such modern amenities as 32" flat-panel LCD televisions, free long-distance telephone calls within Hawaii and to North America, and free high-speed Internet access. Stunning undersea photography, full-sized tubs, spacious new vanity with lighted cosmetic mirror and made-in-Hawaii bath amenities are included in every room.
The Outrigger Reef also recently completed its new porte cochere and driveway. Arriving guests now enter the property via the hotel's canoe hale -- an open-air structure with a steeply sloped roof inspired by traditional Polynesian longhouses -- where a historic century-old canoe is proudly displayed as one of the hotel's many cultural artifacts. The canoe, named Ho`aloha, had been rescued from deterioration several years ago and painstakingly restored by a team of experts and volunteers.
With the opening of the Pacific Tower, the Outrigger Reef has entered into the final phase of its extensive makeover. Earlier, the hotel opened its premium beachfront Ocean Tower -- also completely re-built with spacious new rooms and suites -- remodeled fitness center, sit-down check-in desk, on-site Hertz rental car service, new shops, lobby showcase of cultural artifacts, sitting room and collection of Hawaii literary works.
In the coming months, the property will welcome several more shops, a new pool deck, and the Kani Ka Pila Grille, a casual poolside restaurant highlighting Hawaii's rich musical legacy, including legendary island musicians and up-and-coming talent.
