MOUNTAIN
Located in the shade of Lēʻahi (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 offers solace with breathtaking makai (oceanside) and mauka (mountainside) views.

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, shorefront Hau Tree restaurant.
"We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world"
- ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON
