Timbers Kaua‘i's Oceanfront Restaurant Hualani’s
Experience one of the best restaurants on the island and enjoy farm-to-table oceanfront dining from the elegant yet relaxed setting at Hualani’s on Kaua‘i.
Here, oceanfront dining is influenced by the seasons. What’s fresh at The Farm at Hōkūala inspires the farm-to-table menu, while our bar serves up well-balanced craft cocktails that complement the seasonality of the kitchen.
