Ko Olina Homes For Sale

Once a baron landscape of lava rock on the coast of the Ewa Plain in Kapolei, Hawaii, Ko Olina is now one of Oahu's best kept secrets. For years this resort community has been a hidden gym, over-shadowed by the iconic Waikiki as the Hawaii mainstay for tourists worldwide. The tide is turning though as Ko Olina has seen a significant uptick of a world-class resort development within the past decade, bringing the likes of Disney's Aulani, Four Seasons(formerly Ihilani), and soon to be Atlantis Resort as seen in the Bahamas. Prior to recent development, Ko Olina was anchored by the Ihilani Resort(now Four Seasons), Ko Olina Beachvillas, and Marriott's Ko Olina Beachclub offering guest suites and timeshares. What was once a sleepy resort area offering a quieter alternative to the hustle and bustle of Waikiki is now taking it's strides to prominence.

Ko Olina HI Overview

Not only have Ko Olina Resorts been long overlooked for vacation purposes, the real estate in Ko Olina has remained Oahu's luxury-living stepchild for some time as well. With the addition of world class resorts, recent commercial-retail development in Ko Olina, as well as the burgeoning development and expansion of Kapolei, Ko Olina real estate is quietly emerging has one of Oahu's most renowned neighborhoods offering a lifestyle that's unmatched on the island.

LIFESTYLE

The name says it all. Ko Olina translates to "Place of Joy," and you can take it literally. The fact that Ko Olina has arguably the best weather on the entire island tees up every other appealing aspect about this unique community. Kapolei sees far less rainfall than most regions on Oahu and this typically manifests to endless sunny days, a tourist or snowbird's delight. Location on the western side of the island, or Leeward Side, provides for one of Ko Olina's most notorious amenities; epic Sunsets. Residents of Ko Olina know that it's clockwork for Mother Nature to set the evening sky on fire, and letting the atmosphere glow.

Where to watch? Take a front row seat at one Ko Olina's four man made, open-ocean swimming lagoons that offer a calm, relaxed ocean experience with wide white-sand beaches to lounge and play. Even better, catch the sunset while enjoying a cocktail or dinner at one of the numerous beachside bars or restaurants. For the fitness enthusiast, sunsets can also be enjoyed by an evening jog or walk on the wide sidewalk and greenbelts that line the coast through each lagoon and pass each resort. Enjoy all the same before sun-down and expect crystal blue waters as far as the eye can see and in the winter... Whales!

Residents living in Ko Olina have access to the Ko Olina Golf Club which has a spacious, 35,000-foot clubhouse and 18 holes under the Kapolei sun. Bring a hat and plenty of sunscreen! After a round of golf, stop in at the delicious Roy’s Ko Olina Restaurant which is adjacent to the clubhouse for a Hawaiian Fusion lunch or dinner dining experience. 

Head over to Ko Olina shops where you'll find a convenience store that carries nearly everything you'll need during your stay. It's not a full fledge grocery store but it's definitely more substantial than your average convenience store. Merriman's Monkey Pod restaurant is the dining hot spot here among numerous other dining and retail opportunities. You will need to venture out every once in a while for your Ko Olina home necessities. The good news is that Costco, Home Depot, Target, Inspiration Furniture, Movie Theaters, and dozens of restaurants are only 5 minutes away at Kapolei Commons. The new Ka Makana Alii mall is only 10 minutes away, offering even more shopping and dining, as well as being home to a future planned Rail Station that will provide an alternative means of commute to Honolulu Airport, and on to Kakaako and Ala Moana!

Kapolei is quickly emerging as Honolulu's "Second City" so you'll be hard pressed to not find anything and everything you're looking for in the area. This wasn't always true though, and the morning and afternoon commute to and from Metro Honolulu are evidence of where the majority of commerce has been until recently. If you're commuting east towards Honolulu between 6-8AM, you're in for some pretty heavy workday traffic. The same is true going west from Honolulu towards Ko Olina from about 3-6PM. To maximize the full benefit of Ko Olina living, try to condense your commute to and from Honolulu between 8:30AM - 2:30PM.
