Slow down, breathe in the salt-tinged breeze, and discover serenity at Halepuna Waikiki by Halekulani — the “house of welcoming waters”. Just moments from the golden sands of Waikiki Beach, this refined hideaway offers a soothing counterpoint to the city's vibrant rhythm. Step inside and be immediately enveloped by light-filled elegance and the subtle presence of local artistry, echoing the tranquil embrace of sea and sky. Above it all, the eighth-floor infinity pool and vitality deck unfold in panoramic splendour—an elevated sanctuary of quiet cabanas and ocean views. At Halepuna, subtle touches of Hawaiian artistry echo the natural beauty beyond, where contemporary island design meets understated sophistication and the spirit of the Pacific is ever-present.
Here, thoughtful design is woven into every detail. Created by the acclaimed Champalimaud Design studio and Honolulu-based Anbe, Aruga & Ishizu Architects, the hotel is a study in calm, contemporary elegance. Inspired by the balance of land and water, interiors are light and refined—featuring custom teak finishes, vaulted ceilings, and subtle textures that mirror the surrounding landscape. This is modern Hawaii seen through a serene and sophisticated lens.
Tucked just off Kalakaua Avenue, Halepuna enjoys a privileged position with a whisper of discretion. The golden sands of Waikiki Beach are mere steps away, while Honolulu’s boutiques, galleries, and cultural landmarks lie within effortless reach. From this elevated base, guests can explore the island’s natural wonders—from the winding trails of Diamond Head to the lush serenity of the windward coast—before returning to a rooftop sanctuary of calm, where the ocean's shimmering presence lingers on the horizon.
Each of the rooms and suites are designed to soothe. Interiors feature a soothing palette of white, sand, and soft blue, subtly calling to mind the sands, surf and sky. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame views of the Pacific and surrounding mountains, while balconies offer a private vantage point for sunrise and sunset alike.
Rooted in a legacy of culinary excellence, the Halekulani Bakery & Restaurant is the brand’s first dedicated food and beverage concept. Each morning begins with the scent of artisan breads, buttery pastries, and freshly brewed coffee, all crafted under the guidance of Halekulani’s Executive Pastry Chef, Mark Freischmidt. From house-made chocolate pearls to locally sourced light bites, every detail is crafted with care and a deep sense of flavour.
Halepuna Waikiki by Halekulani is a rare urban sanctuary—contemporary, tranquil, and deeply attuned to the spirit of the island. From the rooftop infinity pool to the artisan bakery, every detail invites quiet reflection and understated indulgence. Guests may unwind with curated treatments by SpaHalekulani—whether a soothing scalp massage or an organic sunscreen ritual—each delivered with the signature grace of the Halekulani name. Whether watching the light dance across the Pacific or wandering through serene, art-filled spaces, Halepuna moves to a gentler rhythm of luxury—one that feels unmistakably Hawaiian, and entirely its own.
