5-star oceanfront resort on Oahu's North Shore with seven beaches
Resort & Location
Spanning across 1,300 acres on Oahu's North Shore, the resort offers 12 miles of biking and hiking trails and five miles of secluded shoreline. The resort is minutes from historic Haleiwa town, the Polynesian Cultural Center, and the famous Banzai Pipeline surf breaks. Seven beaches provide direct access to the ocean for swimming and water sports.
Accommodations
The main building contains 408 guest rooms and suites, each with ocean views. Tucked away in a private oasis steps from the water's edge, 42 exclusive Ocean Bungalows offer added comfort and privacy. Access to the Ocean Club Lounge provides a comfortable space for breakfast, lunch, and evening appetizers.
Dining
Six restaurants and bars include the signature restaurant Alaia, which sources ingredients from Kuilima Farm. The weekly Paniolo Paina dinner show combines an outdoor feast, live entertainment, a pony meet and greet, and a fire knife show. The on-site coffee house and snack bar offer additional casual options.
Activities
Guests can walk to seven beaches for surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, snorkeling, and kayaking. The Jamie O'Brien Surf Experience, the North Shore's premier surf school, offers lessons for all ages and skill levels. Two championship golf courses designed by Arnold Palmer and George Fazio, horseback riding, helicopter tours, bike rentals, tennis courts, and pickleball are available on-site.
Family & Wellness
Specialized children's programming and a kids' club provide supervised activities for younger guests. The spa and wellness center offers a range of treatments, a fitness center, fitness classes, sauna, and hot tub.
