Ko Olina, Oahu, Hawaii.

On my travels to and from Asia Pacific, the major carriers pretty much fly near or above the Hawaiin Islands. Makes for a perfect layover to unwind after long arduous business travels throughout Asia Pacific. One of my favorite spots in the world is Ko Olina, Oahu. Located 30 miles to the west of Honolulu is a peaceful calm and inviting little town called Ko Olina. Ko Olina is home to the Ihilani Hotel owned and operated by the JAL group until it was taken over by the JW Marriot Hotel Corp.in the early 2000's. Pictured here is the lagoon that surrounds the Ihilani Hotel. If you are looking to let the stress melt away, try a Tropical drink and watch the sun melt down behind the backdrop of  this beautiful peaceful little paradise.
