KAUAʻI, Hawaiʻi Hale Hōkūala Kaua‘i, Curio Collection by Hilton, a lifestyle resort debuting on Hawai‘i’s “Garden Island” later this year, is now accepting reservations for stays beginning Oct. 1, 2026. The property will represent Curio Collection by Hilton’s arrival in the Aloha State. 

“From the moment guests arrive, Hale Hōkūala Kaua‘i will immerse them in the spirit of our culture,” said Jon Itoga, general manager, Hale Hōkūala Kaua‘i. “As part of Curio Collection by Hilton, the resort will offer a distinctive, locally inspired experience rooted in thoughtful design and Hawaiian hospitality. More than a place to stay, it will serve as a welcoming home base for guests to explore and connect with Kaua‘i on their own terms.”

Situated in the heart of Kauaʻi amid the lush landscape, Hale Hōkūala Kaua‘i is positioned to offer sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, the gently sculpted slopes of Hāʻupu Mountain, Nāwiliwili Bay, and the Ocean Course at Hōkūala, a Jack Nicklaus Signature Course, creating a setting that will feel deeply connected to its surroundings. With architecture by Hart Howerton in collaboration with AHL (formerly Architects Hawaii Ltd.), and interiors by Looney & Associates, the resort draws inspiration from the simple forms and generous lānais (balconies) of traditional Hawaiian-style bungalows, reimagined through a contemporary lens guided by light and a strong connection to place. Hale Hōkūala, meaning “House of the Rising Star,” is expressed through open-air spaces and pathways that weave through the landscape, where mature monkeypod and banyan trees, along with the island’s lush flora, shape the guest journey.

The resort is set to feature 210 guest rooms, including 23 suites, thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and connection to the outdoors with spacious private balconies that invite in Kaua‘i’s natural light and trade-wind breezes. Interiors reflect Kaua‘i’s landscape and architectural heritage through a nature-inspired palette – echoing tones of sand, greenery, sky, and water -paired with natural textures and contemporary finishes. Spa-inspired bathrooms offer a serene retreat with walk-in showers or soaking tubs. Select rooms provide views of Nāwiliwili Bay, the Ocean Course at Hōkūala, or Hāʻupu Mountain, creating a relaxed, residential-style stay rooted in place.

Beyond the rooms, Hale Hōkūala Kaua‘i will offer a collection of programs that highlight the island. Designed as an exclusive neighborhood retreat within the Hōkūala Resort community, guests will have access to the Ocean Course at Hōkūala, miles of scenic walking trails and biking paths, and The Farm at Hōkūala, which supports the preservation of Kaua‘i’s canoe plants, integral to the local ecosystem. Additional amenities will include a signature Portuguese- and Hawaiian-inspired restaurant, an outdoor pool with pool bar, a state-of-the-art fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and approximately 13,000 square feet of flexible indoor and outdoor event space.
