Ala Moana

Ala Moana, which means “path to the sea” in Hawaiian, is the perfect blend of commercial, retail, and residential vibes in Honolulu. You’ll find it nestled between Waikiki and Kakaʻako. Back in the day, this area was known as Kâlia, famous for its fishponds, taro farms, marshes, and cozy fishermen’s houses.

Ala Moana hugs the southern shores of Oʻahu and boasts stunning reef-protected white sandy beaches. The main drags here are Ala Moana Boulevard and Kapiʻolani Boulevard, and it’s a key hub in Honolulu’s bus system, making it super easy to get around.

Right across from Ala Moana Center – a shopping paradise – is Ala Moana Beach Park, a gem dedicated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in the 1930s. The neighborhood is perfectly positioned between the lively Kakaako and Waikiki, so you get the best of both worlds just a short distance apart.

Everything you need is right here – grocery markets, malls, parks, and beaches. Plus, Ala Moana offers a fantastic range of condos, with plenty of new projects in the pipeline. It’s a dynamic and vibrant spot that blends convenience with that dreamy island lifestyle. How amazing does that sound? 🌊🏢🌴
