The location is peaceful and quiet, offering a chance to have time on the beach just 150 feet away. Overall, the location of the Kaimana Beach Hotel cannot be beat, offering beautiful views, private beach access and easy walking distance to Waikiki and its many amenities.

Breakfast

The breakfast at Kaimana Beach Hotel has received mixed reviews from guests. While some have raved about the quality of the food and the fusion cuisine at Hau Tree, others found the restaurant to be expensive and difficult to get reservations for. Those who did manage to dine at the restaurant praised the menu and the refinement of the dishes. However, some guests felt that options for inexpensive snacks were lacking. One guest was disappointed that breakfast wasn't available until 8 am and that the food was cold. On the other hand, many guests loved the breakfast and found it to be excellent.

Dinner

The on-site restaurant at Kaimana Beach Hotel, Hau Tree, is a popular spot but seating can be improved. Some guests reported issues with a rude hostess, but others found it easy to bypass her and get seated quickly. While the food is generally considered good, some felt that the menu could use more variety and that dinner prices were high. Despite this, many found the seafood and mixed drinks fantastic. Overall, the restaurant is praised for its beautiful outdoor setting and refined cuisine with Japanese influence, but it may not be worth the steep price for everyone. Stick to the salads if you're looking for healthy options.
