Four Seasons Resort Hualalai

Experience Hawaii the way it was. The way it was always meant to be. At the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai at Historic Ka'upulehu. Here, you can recapture the charm and innocence of a forgotten age. Here, you can return to the paradise Hawaii has always promised.

On the Big Island of Hawaii, within North Kona Coast's exclusive Hualalai residential community, the Resort is an intimate enclave of beachfront and golf club bungalows. Meditative ocean views stretch to the horizon from every one of the expansive guest rooms. Careful arrangement gives each guest a sense that the Resort is theirs alone. Every amenity is close at hand--from the Jack Nicklaus signature golf course to the silken beach to stunning restaurants beside the sparkling Pacific. And Four Seasons acclaimed personal service melds with the magical mana , or life force, of Hualalai to create an experience that will live with you forever.

The intimate scale of 243 guest rooms and suites underlies the uniqueness of the Resort. No corridors proclaim this as a hotel. Landscaped walks lead to private entrances, bathrooms open onto lush gardens, and lanais offer spacious access to the open air.

The guest rooms, each with a private lanai, are clustered in 32 beachfront and four golf club bungalows in a setting of incomparable privacy.

While the restaurant's centrepiece is a brilliant aquarium (pahu i`a in Hawaiian), its focal point is the vast cobalt blue ocean and rhythmic, rolling surf merely steps away. At your table, our chefs pay homage to Hawaii's bounty and the surrounding Pacific Ocean. Legendary Four Seasons hospitality and service welcome you, in an inviting atmosphere of relaxed and casual elegance.

Naupaka Terrace, an extension of existing lanai (balcony) seating, offers panoramic views of the ocean in an intimate setting. Its name reflects the naupaka kahakai, a native Hawaiian shrub that grows wild along Hawaii's beaches. Its white blossoms appear to be only half of a flower. Legend says that the flower is made whole by joining it with a "half flower" from the naupaka kuahiwi (mountain naupaka), which grows upland.

The Hualalai Sports Club and Spa is uniquely Hawaiian, reflecting the islands' aloha spirit. The lap pool, whirlpools, saunas, steam rooms and cold plunges are all set amidst tropical gardens. Exotic spa treatments or massage can be enjoyed in the open air, secluded behind bamboo screens. The locker facilities offer both indoor and outdoor showers.
