The interior of the mansion contains a grand entrance hall, a formal parlor, a library, and a dining room. The house is decorated with a mix of European and Hawaiian furnishings, including several pieces of artwork from the royal family.

The grounds of the mansion also include a memorial to Queen Liliuokalani, Hawaii's last reigning monarch, and a memorial to the victims of the Pearl Harbor attack.
