Highlights of the extensive multi-phased renovation include:
Japengo Restaurant
Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort and Spa's newest signature restaurant, Japengo, debuted in late October and is the talk of Waikiki, featuring flavors from Thailand, Japan, Vietnam, Korea, China, and more. Japengo brings an exciting new dining and nightlife destination to Waikiki's diverse culinary scene and emphasizes Pacific Rim cuisine, rolled-to-order sushi and handcrafted cocktails.
SWIM Poolside Bar
The full-service outdoor patio and poolside bar SWIM features signature cocktails, light fare, live entertainment by premier Hawaii musicians, and unparalleled views of iconic Waikiki Beach.
Shor American Seafood Grill
Shor American Seafood Grill, the property's new open-air, ocean view restaurant showcases the freshest local, sustainable seafood and shellfish, as well as meat dishes and seasonal, local produce. Shor participates in Monterey Bay Aquarium's noted Seafood Watch Program, which provides recommendations to chefs and consumers on the most environmentally sustainable seafood choices. The restaurant's culinary team has crafted breakfast and dinner menus that span the classics (Shor Benedict) as well as innovative, contemporary dishes (Roasted Monchong) at a variety of price points. A vast open-air terrace offers plentiful seating above Kalakaua Avenue, with a generously-sized, backlit bar that offers front-row seating for unparalleled views of Waikiki Beach.
Regency Club Lounge
The Regency Club Lounge, completed in early June, takes Hyatt's Regency Club Lounge concept to a new level of sophistication and comfort. The new Lounge features a contemporary style, with an airy indoor/outdoor floor plan to maximize spectacular ocean views from the Lounge's vantage point overlooking Waikiki Beach. The luxe private club for Hyatt Gold Passport rewards program members is available only to those who have achieved elite Diamond tier membership status or to guests staying in Regency Club rooms. Member amenities include complimentary continental breakfasts and appetizers. Guests can also catch up on their favorite programs on the Lounge's flat screen television or check e-mail and browse the Internet at a comfortable workstation.
