Whether you're planning a multi-generational gathering or an extended island retreat, the details below show how the rest of Banyan House follows through.
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.

Everything about this home exceeded expectations, from the entrance to the architecture to the furnishings to the ocean views. The bedrooms were private and the common rooms were large enough to accommodate the whole group comfortably.
The house manager was very friendly and accommodating and it was interesting to hear about all the celebrities who have stayed there and all the movies filmed there. We could certainly see why this house was chosen!

Our family of nine (and growing) stays here every other year. The house is located on Diamond Head right along the water. The soothing sounds of the ocean all throughout the day and the gorgeous backdrop to match are constant reminders that you're on vacation in paradise. There is no other place I'd rather be to decompress and recharge. I recommend Banyan House to anyone and everyone.

I wanted to experience the island like a local and fell in love with O’ahu all over again. The island is alive and well. Mahalo to Kino for all the helpful tips! For starters the house is so special I didn’t even want to leave. You get easy private access to the ocean right from the backyard. I loved being able to get out on the water without driving to the beach. Just grab a paddle board and go! All the peace of mind you could ask for. The views are incredible. Had the time of my life.

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!

This private estate is exquisite — uncompromising standards and the quintessence of oceanfront serenity in Oahu. Every detail epitomizes sophisticated luxury and the accommodations are grand. Staff was warm and professional. A memorable time was had at Banyan House this year with beloved family and friends. We miss it already! We'll definitely be back...
