With an oceanfront location unlike anyplace else on the island, Timbers Kauai Ocean Club & Residences is the newest and most luxurious residential resort development on the "Garden Island" of Kauai.
Each of the three residence buildings at Timbers Kaua’i – Ocean Club & Residences were named with the help of native Hawaiian Hualani Duncan, a warm-hearted local woman with a deep understanding of the importance of “what’s in a name.” The Kaiholo building, which rests close the cliff’s edge with prime ocean views, stems from “kai” (ocean, sea) and “holo” (current, flow) and represents guiding travelers to the effervescent shores of nearby Running Waters Beach and Kalapaki Beach. The Maliulā building stems from “maliu” (look upon with favor, entreat) and “lā” (sun, warmth) represents the warmest aloha to welcome residents. Lāola stems from “lā” (sun, warmth) and “ola” (life, health, well-being), representing a fresh sense of life that the residence building will offer its owners.
The Ocean Course at Hōkūala, a signature amenity of Timbers Kauai, solidified its position on the list at No. 11.
