Paradise Bay Resort

We recently did a site visit at Paradise Bay Resort, tucked away on the Windward coast of Oahu. This hidden gem makes for a beautiful, intimate spot for small weddings or retreats, located away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu, surrounded by lush greenery and beautiful views of the mountains and the ocean. Paradise Bay Resort houses 46 rooms, from studios to two bedroom suites, is a pet friendly location, and is great for couples and families looking for peace and tranquility. Limited parking is available.

For a very intimate wedding ceremony with close families and friends, Paradise Bay Resort can accommodate small intimate celebrations up to 25 people. We loved the fact that you can host a ceremony on their floating dock overlooking the beautiful ocean, mountains, and china man’s hat as well. How unique it would be to enjoy delicious pupu and champagne after a ceremony , literally floating on water!

Another option is to go for a quick ride on their flat deck pontoon, which can take you out on the water. Guests could also get their feet wet, and enjoy the famous Kaneohe sandbar. You can have your ceremony on the pontoon or you can even organize it to have it right on the sand bar.

Although not conducive for receptions, consult your wedding planner on options for a ceremony at Paradise Bay Resort, followed by a reception elsewhere, perhaps even in a locale nearby.

Happy Planning!
