About Melia Ward Village
Rising 400 feet above Ward Village's Diamond Head edge, Melia represents something rare in today's luxury market: perfect timing. A joint venture between Discovery Land Company and The Howard Hughes Corporation, this tower delivers what discerning buyers want. Intention over excess, integration over isolation. No apologies for what it isn't. No compromise on what it is.
221 residences. Unobstructed emerald Diamond Head vistas. Expansive panoramic views of the Pacific ocean. Protected view corridors that won't be built out and spoiled. A sculpted silhouette that’s strategic. Angled to frame the surf and Ala Moana Beach through floor-to-ceiling glass, these sightlines offer front-row seats forever. More than just another tower, Melia represents Howard Hughes' most exclusive vertical integration into Ward Village to date. It features lower density of residences, taller ceilings, and truly custom combinations available directly through the developer.
Few luxury highrises offer this flexibility. None in this location. Ward Village has moved from vision to validation. Melia arrives at an inflection point; for those who've watched this neighborhood transform, it feels like the optimal moment.

Location
Fronted by Ala Moana Beach Park, Melia occupies Ward Village's most coveted land blocks. When built, over 30% will be preserved for green space. Openness and permanence are engrained into the neighborhood's DNA.
This will be the closest building to the sand in Kaka’ako. Rooted amongst a growing network of bike-friendly, pedestrian-first streets. This is the new definition of the modern urban lifestyle. Ward Village is a long-term vision fully realized master-planned community with the infrastructure and momentum to prove it. Every tower plays a role in the larger story and Melia stars in this narrative as one of its most refined expressions.
Rising on the final pieces of prime neighborhood land, with protected view corridors and limited future development that enhance long-term appeal. A rare chance to stake your place in a community still gaining momentum. For the discerning buyer, Melia offers what's increasingly scarce: timeless design; lasting investment; unmatched setting. The lifestyle speaks for itself.
