Hinahina on the Beach Sheraton Waikiki Opens

Hinahina on the Beach Sheraton Waikiki has opened as a new all day oceanfront restaurant on Oahu. The Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort launched the venue to replace Kai Market and The Edge of Waikiki Bar, Travel Weekly reported. It serves three meals daily and brings back the resort's breakfast and dinner buffets.

Those buffets had been absent for more than six years. The opening marks a fresh chapter for the resort and its much loved stretch of Waikiki shoreline.

Resort general manager Tetsuji Yamazaki said guests have told the team time and again how much they missed the daily breakfast buffet. He called the return of this tradition special. He also described the restaurant as an exciting new culinary chapter for the resort.

The return gives longtime visitors a familiar way to start the day. It also gives new guests a chance to try a classic resort experience. The dinner buffet comes back as well, which adds a relaxed option for families and groups.
