My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Kamilo Nui, in the Hawaii Kai Region

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Kamilo Nui, in the Hawaii Kai Region of Honolulu

If you follow Hawaii Kai Drive, pats the neighborhoods of Anchorage and Kealaulau, you’ll find Kamilo Nui. This development of 64 large executive homes were built in 2003 to 2004, which makes it a relatively newer neighborhood in Hawaii Kai. Most of these homes were built with central air conditioning and high end appointments. Interior home sizes range from 2,200 to 3,100 square feet. Lot sizes are above average, from 7,800 to 14,000 square feet.

The Upper Kamilo area is a zoned agricultural area and is leased by farmers who have been in the area for over 40 years. Most of the farmers here have a lease to farm the land that expires in 2025. At times this can cause a friction between the farmers and the residents with the lease coming up for renegotiation soon.

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Napali Haweo, in the Hawaii Kai Region of Honolulu

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Napali Haweo, in the Hawaii Kai Region of Honolulu

Located on the Kamehame Ridge, Napali Haweo consists of mostly custom built homes, many with some of the best views found on Oahu. Fairly strict codes are enforced by a Home Owner’s Association that enforces covenants and building restrictions which results in not only a tidy but fairly upgraded and well maintained neighborhood.

This elite residential area consists of 193 homes and rises from 400 feet to 700 feet above sea level. Homes range in size from 3,000 square feet and lot sizes average 10,000 square feet or larger.
Home building in this area was finished in 1994, however building still continues. In fact, one unique feature about Napali Haweo is you can still find unfinished lots for sale in this area.

Napali Haweo in the ntive Hawaiian Language translate to “Cliffs of Distinction.”

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Portlock, in the Hawaii Kai Region

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Portlock, in the Hawaii Kai Region

Without question Portlock is one of the most affluent neighborhoods found on Oahu. Located on a peninsula overlooking the ocean on the southwestern slopes of Koko head, Portlock offers some absolutely spectacular ocean, cliff and mountain views. As you drive to Hanauma Bay, this neighborhood would be located on your right, with beach front estates, ocean view mansions and more luxury homes on the slopes. The location is convenient to all that Hawaii Kai has to offer and is just minutes from Hawaii Kai Town Center, the Koko Marina Shopping Center and more.

Portlock is perhaps one of the most prestigious areas of Hawaii Kai, and with no future plans to develop any higher up on the slopes of Koko Head, the exclusiveness of this area is retained. In fact, Henry Kaiser himself, who developed and built Hawaii Kai, built his own huge estate there, overlooking Maunalua Bay and Diamond Head. Homes in this neighborhood were built on large lots, mostly 12,000 to 15,000 square feet in size where homes average roughly $4 million in price.

Portlock Road runs parallel to the beautiful blue waters of Maunalua Bay. Homes on the water side enjoy gorgeous views of the Bay and Diamond Head and many have white, sandy beaches. There is a decent surf break not far just offshore, and also a small public beach that is primarily used by local residents. With this neighborhood located just off Kalanianaole Highway, it’s an easy drive to the freeway (H1) and downtown Honolulu. Heading east, residents can enjoy Hanamua Bay, the Makapuu Lighthouse and even drive a short distance to the windward side of the island. Residents of Portlock can easily enjoy all that suburban Hawaii Kai has to offer, but yet be just fifteen minutes from busy Metropolitan Honolulu and Waikiki.

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Mariners Ridge, in the Hawaii Kai Region

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Mariners Ridge, in the Hawaii Kai Region

This hillside neighborhood is located just past the Hawaii Kai Post Office and is reached via Kaluanui Road and climbs a ridge of the Koolau mountains and overlooks Hahione Valley. House lots in this neighborhood are generally hilly or sloped. Because of this, views of the ocean, Koko Head, Koko Crater, Hawaii Kai and the inner harbor and canals are outstanding, many are panoramic.

Most of the homes built in Mariner’s Ridge were built in the early 1970′s. Roughly 275 homes were built by a California developer in the lower two thirds of the ridge at this time. In later years over 150 lots were sold in the upper section of the ridge, where owners built custom homes. Today homes in this area total 429.

The average home is roughly 1,600 to 2,800 square feet in size with lots average 9,000 to 10,000 sqaure feet and many, because of such steep sloping lots, have multiple stories or floors, taking advantage of the hillside and views.
