![]() Since February of this year, the former Pacific Beach Hotel reopened as the ‘Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach, with a complete facelift and all new set of business tenants. O Bar at the ‘Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach, opened February 2018, replaces The Oceanarium RestaurantĪccording to several staff I spoke with recently at the still new O Bar, ever since they opened, both returning visitors and locals alike come in every single day, throughout the day asking, “What happened to The Oceanarium Restaurant?! Is this it now?” However, apparently the news hasn’t got out to everyone. Yes, the O Bar has replaced The Oceanarium Restaurant, yet it retains the gigantic 3-story tall 280,000 gallon salt water aquarium, which interestingly that itself they’ve named ‘Oceanarium’. ![]() In the tank when I visited, there were a variety of smaller reef fish swimming the lower areas, such as tangs, surgeons and triggers, while on the top near the surface were some pretty big Awa (Milkfish). visit to Oceanarium, Fish Spa and Sharks and Rays Dry Encounter, and enjoy a delicious Eat-All-You-Can Buffet at Manila Ocean Parks Liquid Pool Lounge. There used to be a giant grouper in there, but they took it out. There was also a Great White Shark pup, but they took that out as well. What they need to put in there are stingrays, which the Oceanarium used to have. ![]() Rays are much more fascinating to watch swim around than fish.Īnd that’s where the ‘Oceanarium’ part of it ends, as the entire floor area of the former restaurant is now designed as a chic & elegant cocktail lounge with mood lighting, plush low-slung sofas, chairs and coffee tables replacing commercial restaurant dining tables and chairs. The space is a lot more open now since they removed the tank-viewing staircase The Oceanarium had. With that, when you look from the lobby, O Bar seems to be an integral part of it, not a separate venue as it did before.įlanking the left side is the bar, offering an extensive list of wines, craft beers, signature cocktails and fine spirits. That would suck! Thankfully they haven’t, as there’s already more than enough bars in Waikiki! What we need are more cool concept restaurants for everyone to enjoy like The Oceanarium was! Speaking of having enough bars, moving along to more renovations and changes they’ve made since becoming ‘Alohilani Resort, there’s Swell Bar on the 5th floor pool deck. ![]() Check-in is at 3:00pm and check-out is at 12:00pm.There, along with the original swimming pool (that’s been modified to be kid-friendly), they’ve also added an adults-only infinity pool with adjoining hot tub, surrounded by a plethora of comfy lounge chairs and swank cabanas.
