Why they chose this property
We love this friendly community / neighborhood with Hawaiian Ohana spirit. The location offers the convenience and amenities of a city without the hustle and bustle. Wake up every morning with the view of the water front, Koko head, the sound of bird singing and the breeze flowing through the house. Its beauty and tranquility makes it a perfect place for vacationing, working remotely, rejuvenating and be inspired.
When it's time to play, East Honolulu is the beginning of a scenic drive route 72 where Hanauma Bay, Makapu’u Lighthouse, Sandy Beach and several local beaches are only 5 to 10 minute drive away. Koko Crater trail is a great place to hike with breathtaking 360 degree view from the top. For golfers, Hawaii Kai golf course is 5 minute drive away. Waikiki is only 15 minute drive away.
We love to come here to be inspired, to recharge, relax and re-energize; as well as to spend time with our loved ones, to create beautiful memories.
What makes this property unique
This is how you live and experience Oahu like a Kama'aina (local).
Start the day with breakfast and coffee at the private lanai with the panoramic view of the water, green grass and mountain. It is therapeutic. We provide exercise mat, yoga mats for your daily exercise, or you can simply go for a walk, a run, a hike, a swim, a round of golf or paddle.
While enjoying the serene surroundings, the convenient location allows you to easily access shopping (Costco), restaurants, amenities and local attractions. Whenever you feel like experiencing the city life, we are 15 minute drive away from Waikiki.
The close proximity to east Oahu's famous coastal attractions encourages us to be more active and spend more time outdoor. We also enjoy the easy access to several local farmers markets.
The house has Apple smart home features. When it's time to catch up on some work, the Wi-Fi internet service would allow you to work on your laptop anywhere around the house, including the lanai. Need a quiet place to take a Zoom call? Or need a larger computer monitor to be more comfortable and productive? The upstair bedroom has you covered.
From both guest bedrooms, you can see the cloud rolling over from the top of the mountains. It's magical! Watching the sunrise from the Koko Isle bridge is another amazing experience. I can never get enough of the beautiful sunset. One of my favorite things to do is to grab a glass of wine and sit on the bench by the water, and simply take it all in.
We like to cook and host dinners for friends and family, so the kitchen is fully stocked with tools and equipments. It's a great place to have family and friends reunion where folks can hang out by the swimming pool, play at the grassy park, launch your kayak, paddle board and other water toys from the boat docks. Several water sport activity clubs and rental shops are in the shopping centers nearby. Rent a boat, a kayak or standup paddle board and you can sail into the ocean.
