KAIMANA

ABOUT US

Built in 1963 on Oahu's iconic Gold Coast, Kaimana Beach Hotel is Waikīkī's only boutique property located directly on the sand. With a soul that harkens back to the heyday of Waikīkī, and a rejuvenated identity that embraces today's thriving creative community, Kaimana Beach Hotel welcomes global wanderers to connect with Hawai'i's world-class sense of place.

MOUNTAIN

Located in the shade of Diamond Head, the hotel and beach are aptly named -- Kaimana means diamond in Hawaiian. Affectionately referred to as Sans Souci (without cares) by those in the know, Kaimana Beach is a place of solace.

HISTORY

The property, upon which the hotel now sits, was the former residence of the McInerny family, founders of a once-prominent retail chain. The family’s Victorian beachfront home featured an oceanfront lanai (balcony) covered by a distinctive hau tree, a haven frequented by famed author Robert Louis Stevenson.

Kaimana Beach Hotel was eventually constructed in 1963, hau tree intact. The hotel continues to host travelers, and the iconic hau tree vistas continue to be enjoyed by patrons of the renowned Hau Tree restaurant.

"We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world"

- ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON

FOR THE FUTURE

SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS

Kaimana Beach Hotel is committed to preserving the land, sea, and skies for future generations to enjoy. This starts small daily changes and a concerted commitment to our own backyard, Waikīkī's Gold Coast.

One such initiative is our partnership with Mananalu, Jason Momoa’s aluminum canned water company that is also dedicated to replacing single-use plastics with recyclable alternatives. Hau Tree is the only place on Oahu where guests can enjoy water by Mananalu.

A proud member of The Surfrider Foundation’s Ocean Friendly Restaurants program, Kaimana Beach Hotel and Hau Tree are among the 750 strong that are committed to cutting out single-use plastics and offer sustainable alternatives. As community influencers, it is our responsibility to give voice to green initiatives, one meal at a time.
