Inside the $65 Million Landmark Honolulu Estate, Hale Hanohano, the “House of Honor"

A landmark 1.52-acre property featuring three residences perched along O‘ahu’s most exclusive coastline has hit the market for $65 million, and it's a Hawaiian dream come true.
Hale Hanohano, meaning “House of Honor” in Hawai‘ian, the estate pays elegant tribute to the islands while taking full advantage of its premiere beachfront setting and location on Kahala Avenue, Honolulu's most prestigious street. Among its defining features is 213 feet of direct access to Kahala Beach and proximity to Honolulu’s finest amenities from the Waialae Country Club to world-class shopping, golf, spas, and dining.
Listing agent Derek Kamm of Coldwell Banker Island Properties (who has co-listed it with Noel Shaw of Hawaii Life), calls it "one of the largest and most distinguished properties on Kahala Avenue."
Built in 2018, Hale Hanohano’s design sophistication is divided equally among three family homes, all of which offer their own slice of beachfront paradise to suit multiple families in one place.
The main house is the epitome of privacy with over 6,100 square feet that feels as luxurious as a five-star hotel. A grand great room with a 30-foot chandelier and floor-to-ceiling windows opening to lanais with ocean views is spacious enough to bring everyone together. The open-plan gourmet kitchen will entice the chef (whether professional or amateur) with premium appliances, custom cabinetry, marble countertops, and walk-in pantry. The primary suite promises its own collection of resort-like luxuries, including a private balcony, spa-like bathroom, soaking tub, rain shower, and walk-in closet with custom built-ins, elevator access, and retractable TV on the outdoor lanai. Other rooms are focused around lifestyle. There's a home office and media room with a built-in desk, shelving, surround sound, and projection screen, plus a wine cellar with a 2,400-bottle capacity and an adjacent tasting room.
The secondary home contains three bedrooms, three full bathrooms and one half-bath in more than 3,100 square feet. A self-contained living space with open-plan living and dining areas, a full kitchen, and private patio spaces ensure a private retreat away from the main house. Direct access to shared pathways and property amenities connect it to the rest of Hale Hanohano.
The guest house features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms in over 2,500 square feet. Access via a separate entrance, this home has a fully equipped kitchen, bar and open-concept living area, plus two en-suite bedrooms with garden views and direct access to shared outdoor spaces. Visitors here will enjoy the adjacent gym and access to a guest parking area.
Architectural details include Venetian plaster walls, Italian roof tiles, cobblestone driveways imported from London, and reclaimed wood beams from a Pennsylvania barn.
Designed as a true sanctuary where visitors never want to leave, the property features an Olympic-sized heated lap pool with underwater speakers, a spa, and a Baja ledge. Expansive lanais, courtyards, and retractable pocket doors seamlessly connect indoor and outdoor living spaces. Extensive gardens featuring tropical plants, meandering paths, and mature trees complete the picture of oasis. It's "the perfect balance of privacy, family-oriented design, and grand-scale living," adds Kamm. All of these elements, combined with its Kahala Avenue location, make Hale Hanohano extremely desirable. As co-listing agent Shaw observes, "It's extremely rare to find an estate of this caliber on the market." With strong demand and limited inventory within the ultra-luxury sector on O‘ahu, both he and Kamm anticipate interest to be heated.
