Espacio, the luxury resort set to open in Honolulu's popular Waikiki area Sept. 7, is trying out a new concept in Honolulu: a single hotel with nine stories and just one suite per floor. It costs a pricey $5,000 a night for the three-bedroom suites that offer the privacy of not sharing a wall with other guests.

"There's really nothing like Espacio. Believe me, we've looked," said Theresa Van Greunen, a spokeswoman for Aqua-Aston Hospitality, which manages the resort as well as other hotels in Hawaii.

Jacuzzis on balconies and indoor dry saunas as well as a private entrance for guests are some of the perks at the upscale hotel at 2452 Kalakaua Ave. Suites measure 2,250 square feet with 3.5 bathrooms. Decor is defined by globally inspired furnishings, such as handmade carpets from China and ornate metalwork from Morocco.
