About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Fancy
  • Romantic
Best view in Ko Olina, with valet service by the Four Seasons. Mānalo Lounge – meaning ‘sweet water’ in Hawaiian, celebrates Hawaii’s diverse mix of cultures, paying homage to the flavors of Asia and across the greater Pacific. The outdoor breeze in a comfortable, relaxed environment lets us take it easy while enjoying top-quality pupus. Akin to the saying, 'Ae Kai - to bring together the land and sea to serve as a gathering place, Mānalo Lounge serves as a welcoming intersection to gather with family and friends for dinner, in a contemporary, yet casual setting at the water’s edge.

    Very beautiful, wonderful atmosphere, and chill space. The food is limited and designed as shareables. Very over priced. Be prepared to pay well over anything you are expecting and still not get full. Nice experience and the food tastes good but will not be back only because the price doesn’t match the overall experience/food.

    Superb! Came here as a couple and the seating is beachfront which is amazing at sunset! The flavours were delectable and umami- love tasting new textures and flavours at my age. We thought the lounge was much better than Mina’s this year in terms of food, quality, and price. For 2, 4 small starter plates were enough for us. Total with drinks $150 or so. Servers were very friendly. Must try especially if staying at any Ko Olina resort. A little buggy if you’re sitting next to the plants so apply some bug spray to your legs or sit away from the hedge.

    The view is unbeatable. Service top tier. Situated between two larger restaurants, the pool, and bar; Mānalo offers a place to relax away from the busier areas. They have a fireplace and romantic lighting letting you view the stars better at night. Carlos the manager was catered to every table throughout our time there. 10/10 Food and drinks A1.

    The service was not up to the Four Seasons standard. Our main server seemed confused. We ordered drink. My glass of wine came. Several minutes later 3 out of the other 5 drinks arrived. The waiter did not know who they belonged to. He came back almost 10 minutes later and informed the 5th person who ordered a Manhattan that they did not have the style of bourbon she had requested. By then the food has started to arrive so she did not order. My husbands food came first. It was several minutes later the rest of the food arrived. Again, the waiter did not know who each dish belonged to. We asked for forks. One was delivered. We flagged down another wait staff who promptly delivered forks. After dinner, my husband asked for coffee. It was delivered cold. The waiter did bring him a hot cup but no spoon to stir it with. Not our main waiter but an assistant/bus person, Ace, was great. I wish he had been our waiter. The food was OK. Nothing outstanding. Have eaten at all the Four Seasons restaurants and have never been this disappointed.
