A Destination that Inspires Discovery

The Spirit of Aloha washes over everything here. It’s the spirit of the islands, the people in our community, and the land that surrounds us. It’s what sets Hawaiʻi apart from the rest of the world. And makes our dreamlike location on the North Shore of Oʻahu a real standout. When there’s so much to explore, you have to go deeper. That’s where the fresh perspective is.

Connect with the people, culture, and adventure of the North Shore. Email our Concierge team to help you plan your stay.

    Beautiful property - I highly recommend The Stables and the sunset horseback ride. Our guide Alex was very kind, fun and educational... These beautiful horses are well cared for and the perfect way to see more of the property along the water. Amazing photo opportunities.

    If you have kids between the ages 7-17, Jr Waterman Adventure with Rocky is a must. He is not only an expert in surfing, paddle boarding and everything Hawaii but also is an engaging and caring educator who encourages kids to get out of their comfort zone to try new adventures. It was the highlight of our daughter’s Hawaii trip.
