Five Romantic Ways to Define Love at JW Marriott Ihilani Resort & Spa at Ko Olina

Love Fills the Air at Ko Olina's First Luxury Beach Resort Hotel Where Romance Packages Begin From $539


KO OLINA, HI--(Marketwire - Mar 19, 2012) - For couples looking for love in all the right places, look no further than the luxurious JW Marriott Ihilani Resort & Spa at Ko Olina.

Whether it's that first vacation together, the dream destination wedding, or an anniversary celebration, here are five ways to capture romantic bliss at JW Marriott Ihilani:

1) Relax together -- It's just the two of you, no one else to tend to, care for or think about. Take a deep breath and wind down with a couple's massage at the world-renowned Ihilani Spa. Or sit poolside at this Ko Olina hotel and soak in the sunrays. Before you know it, you will see the sparkle in each other's eyes.

2) Eat together -- The private "Ihilani Lanai Dining" experience sets the ultimate table-for-two in paradise. Guests can choose to have dinner delivered to their guestroom or set up at the oceanfront Lagoon Lawn, an option that includes a personal server to attend to their needs. Guests can select a three- or five-course menu, both of which are available with select wine pairings.

"Ihilani Lanai Dining" requires a minimum 24-hour advanced notice and can be reserved online in the "Romantic Occasions" section of Ihilani.com's virtual market place or by calling the Concierge at 808-679-3209.

3) Play together -- The couple that plays together stays together. From a round of golf at the championship Ko Olina Golf Club, a game of tennis at the oceanview Tennis Garden, or stand up paddling in the lagoon's calm waters, the active couple will find plenty of ways to raise their pulse at the oceanfront resort Oahu.

4) Love together -- Moments of love are all around. Outdoors, the oceanfront location on Oahu's sunny West coast provides the perfect place to watch the sun go down over the Pacific horizon. Indoors, the extra-large, deep tub is the perfect place to enjoy a rose petal drawn bath for two. Both are amazing in their own ways! Check the Market & Gifts page on Ihilani.com for additional suggestions.

5) Stay together -- JW Marriott Ihilani's Romance Package makes finding love in Hawaii easy! With this Oahu vacation package, rates per night begin from $539 for an oceanview room to $5,000 for the Presidential Suite, and will include what a romantic couple will enjoy:

  • Chilled champagne and strawberries waiting in the room upon arrival
  • Breakfast in bed for two
  • Rose petal drawn bath
