One of the few places in Hawaii that makes you want to stay inside.
This 4,490-square-foot, $30,000-a-night suite was inspired by Louis XV’s royal court … and his love of hemorrhaging cash.
Checking into the Provocateur Suite means you’re not just fooling around. Actually, it sort of does. Features include mirrored ceilings and an interactive video wall that projects figures “writhing wantonly” on the bed while erotic themes rotate behind the headboard.
Yep, that’s a full-sized basketball court behind those doors. For a mere $25,000 a night, hoop dreams do come true. Oh, relax, that’s still less than LeBron James makes in a single quarter of play.
Vintage champagne? Monogrammed golf balls? 7-Eleven burrito? Your personal staff is on call to fetch whatever you need.
Why go all the way to the Mediterranean to visit your rich relatives when you can simulate the effect in SoCal?
This Penthouse comes with a formal dining room seating 60 people, but everyone needs a secret refuge from the hoi polloi now and then.
Trump this view.
At Casa Five suite, you get your own outdoor pool, private tennis court, five bedrooms, five and a half baths and multi-level outdoor patio with hot tub. Don’t worry, you’ll get used to living like a sheik quickly enough.
