Hawaii Kai, meaning “Community by the Sea” in Hawaiian, was originally a fishpond and wetland area that was developed in the 1960s as Oahu’s first planned community developed by Henry J. Kaiser. This area is located East of Honolulu about 12 miles from downtown, but considered more on the south eastern corner of Oahu when looking at the map. The way to get to Hawaii Kai is one way in and one way out using Kalanianaole Highway. Today, Hawaii Kai is a thriving region that is home to about 30,000 residents. Within Hawaii Kai are over 20 different neighborhoods, some of these neighborhoods are located on the Marina while others are not. Although generally, when people think of Hawaii Kai, it’s hard not to associate the marina that is such a huge part of it. That’s one of the biggest things that makes Hawaii Kai so unique. Being able to catch a boat from your boat dock on the marina means being part of the Hawaii Kai Marina Association. Homeowners are assessed a marina fee, of course, to be able to use the marina at their leisure. There’s much to do and so much to see in Hawaii Kai! From going on various hikes or doing water activities like fishing, surfing, boating, parasailing, snorkeling and more! There are also several shopping centers with restaurants, shops, parks and entertainment areas that are conveniently located for Hawaii Kai residents and visitors.
The median sold price is $692,500 (a .07% decrease from prior year) for a townhome/condo and $1,090,000 (a 8.48% decrease from prior year) for a single family home.
The median days on market before getting an accepted offer is 30 days (or 50% longer than last year) for a single family home and 23 days (or 9.52% longer than last year) for a condo or townhome. After the offer is accepted, it could take anywhere from 30 to 60 days before the home is officially sold. Although most of the time the homes will sell within the 45 day closing timeline.
In the past 12 months, there has been 234 townhome or condo sales (an increase of 39.29% from the previous period) and 173 single family homes sold (a decrease of 3.89% from the previous period).
Many people know and call this hike as the “Koko Head Stairs”, nature’s stairmaster! It’s very easy to find with plenty of parking available in the Koko Head District Park. There’s over 1000 steps from the bottom to the top for this natural stairmaster. It will test your endurance and strength because without a doubt you will feel your legs burn. Keep going because the reward at the top is well worth it – stunning panoramic views!
Leonard’s Malasadas is one of the most popular foods you must try in Hawaii. It’s a Portuguese donut without a hole! It’s dark golden brown on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The main location for Leonard’s is located in Kapahulu but there’s food trucks all over the island for you to enjoy a malasada, or two! Luckily, there’s one located in Hawaii Kai at the Koko Marina Center! The most popular flavor is of course, the original, classic malasada deep fried and covered in sugar! Eat it while it’s HOT!
With no traffic the commute would be roughly 22 minutes. If driving to Downtown Honolulu at 7am, the commute would be on average anywhere between 28 minutes to 55 minutes. If driving back home to Hawaii Kai at 5pm the average drive time would be around 24 minutes to 50 minutes.
