Four Seasons Hualalai

Sweeping ocean views and brilliant island sunsets provide a magnificent backdrop to the oceanfront dining experience of Pahu i‘a, where the indoors are caressed by tradewinds, the waves illuminated by the stars and the gentle surf endlessly soothes.

While the restaurant’s centrepiece is a brilliant aquarium (Pahu i‘a in Hawaiian) its focal point is the vast cobalt blue ocean and rhythmic, rolling surf merely steps away. At your table, our chefs pay homage to Hawaii’s bounty and the surrounding Pacific Ocean. Combined with legendary Four Seasons hospitality and service, it is an inviting atmosphere of relaxed and casual elegance. Seats 125.

On the restaurant's second floor is The Makai Terrace, offering bird’s eye views of the coastline. Perfect for intimate dinners, it offers all the amenities of Pahu i‘a in a more secluded environment.

Naupaka Terrace, an extension of existing lanai seating, offers panoramic views of the ocean in an intimate setting. Naupaka kahakai is the name of a native Hawaiian shrub that grows naturally along Hawai‘i's beaches. Its white blossoms appear to be only half of a flower. Legend says that the flower is made whole by joining it with a "half flower" from the naupaka kuahiwi or mountain naupaka, which grows upland.

Nestled oceanside is the delightful alfresco dining of The Beach Tree Bar & Grill. Featuring succulent cuts of beef, tender farm-raised game, fresh island seafood and the island's most spectacular salad bar, The Beach Tree offers exceptional grilled items in a relaxed setting.

Located oceanside, The Lava Lounge at Pahu i`a offers front-row seats to the stunning sunsets of the Kona-Kohala Coast. Strolling guitarists perform nightly, sharing musical stylings which include soft rock, slack key and contemporary Hawaiian favorites. The lounge seats up to 34 guests. Join us for a light snack from our tempting pupu menu or indulge in one of our signature thirst-quenchers, such as the Lava Flow or the Sinking Sun.

Wiggle your toes in the sand as you sip exotic, tropical drinks at The Beach Tree Bar, located a mere 20 steps from the ocean. The traditional mai tai and the Aloha Margarita will tempt your taste buds. The Lava Flow or the Sneaky Blue are also served to rave reviews. The Beach Tree Bar is the most picturesque sunset spot at the Resort and an unforgettable way to end the day.
