A Royal Experience!

This home feels like your own private resort.... It is also in my favorite location on Oahu. The neighborhood is prestigious and exudes an air of old Hawaii luxury living. You can drive 15 minutes to Waikiki or 5 minutes to Kahala Mall or Kahala Hotel. I love that I am close to everything, yet away from it all so I can relax and unwind without all the hustle and bustle. The property is very secure, private and gated and the caretaker Kino is AWESOME! He treats you like royalty and is very helpful with all your needs! This is a 5 star retreat and one of my #1 vacation properties!

Description

Set along a tranquil cove in Kahala, Banyan House is a remarkable oceanfront estate where soaring architecture, tropical gardens, and turquoise water create an unforgettable setting on Oahu's South Shore. Beyond the gated entrance, a magnificent banyan tree anchors the circular drive while floating stone pathways cross a serene reflection pond, creating a memorable arrival experience. Designed for up to 16 guests, this 13,000-square-foot residence blends warm island design with seamless indoor-outdoor living, offering exceptional privacy and space for families, groups, and extended stays.

Whether you're planning a multi-generational gathering, an extended island retreat, or a work-from-paradise escape, this luxury holiday home delivers the comfort, flexibility, and sense of place that define a memorable Hawaiian stay.

What You'll Love About Banyan House
• Oceanfront location on a swimmable cove with direct access to calm turquoise waters
• Dramatic great room with soaring ceilings and retractable walls opening to the Pacific
• Resort-style pool, jacuzzi, cabana, and expansive beachfront lawn
• Eight bedrooms and nine-and-a-half bathrooms accommodating up to 16 guests
• Private gym, game room, ocean-view office, and detached guest house with its own kitchen and lanai

Living & Dining
The great room serves as the heart of the estate, where vaulted open-beam ceilings and disappearing walls create a seamless connection between indoor comfort and the natural beauty beyond. Warm wood finishes, custom architectural details, and generous seating areas create an inviting atmosphere for gathering with family and friends.

A separate family room offers additional space to relax, while the game room provides entertainment for all ages with a pool table and comfortable lounge seating. Multiple dining spaces, both indoors and outside, make everything from casual breakfasts to sunset dinners feel effortless.

Chef-Ready Kitchen
The gourmet kitchen is designed to accommodate everything from everyday meals to professionally catered dinners. Premium appliances, expansive prep space, natural wood cabinetry, and a large center island provide both style and functionality. An espresso machine, wine fridge, and ice maker add thoughtful conveniences, while the detached guest house kitchen offers additional flexibility for extended stays.

Outdoor Oasis
Life at Banyan House naturally centers around the water. Spend your days swimming in the oceanfront pool, soaking in the jacuzzi, or lounging beneath the shaded cabana surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. The manicured lawn stretches to the shoreline, creating an ideal setting for morning coffee, outdoor yoga, family gatherings, or sunset cocktails.

Just beyond the lawn, the protected cove invites swimming, snorkeling, and leisurely walks along the water's edge. Whether enjoying a quiet sunrise or an evening under the stars, the setting feels both peaceful and connected to the rhythm of the ocean.
