If you walked into the Pearl Hotel in Waikīkī in 2019, you’d see a fairly typical mid-century hotel with questionable architecture, lacking amenities and in need of major upgrades throughout. But that’s not what my team and I saw. We saw an underutilized asset in an ideal location with the potential to become a truly special, high-design oasis. That vision became what is today Romer House Waikīkī-a completely reconfigured space complete with an elevated pool oasis and an expansive lobby restaurant.
