The Diamond Head area, sought after for its location at the
base of the Oahu's most famous landmark, offers an exceptional island
lifestyle. Kapiolani Park, public beach parks including Queens Surf and Sans
Souci Beach, the Waikiki Shell and resort hotels are all within walking
distance.
Homes are
generally in the $1,500,000 and up range, many with ocean views. The Gold Coast
is a 1-mile stretch of oceanfront condominiums and co-operative apartments that
is highly prized for its location along Kapiolani Park. Oceanfront Condominium
and Co Operative apartments are priced from $600,000 and up.
Diamond
Head is immediately adjacent to Kahala. The housing trends are very similar
between these two neighborhoods.
The
Kapiolani Park Bandstand includes events like the Royal Hawaiian Band
performing on Sunday afternoon. At the Waikiki Shell, also located within
Kapiolani Park, past performances have included super stars from Ella
Fitzgerald to Basia, many of them performing with the Honolulu Symphony under
the Hawaiian star lit skies. Kapiolani Park is the scene for the finish line of
The Honolulu Marathon, an annual event attracting thousands of runners to Oahu.
Private
beachfront clubs include the Outrigger Canoe Club and the Elks Club.
