Defined by the Water

Waterfront corner-end townhome in the Gateway Peninsula community on Hawaii Kai Marina. Three bedrooms, 2½ baths, two stories, approximately 1,850 square feet.

Whether launching at first light or taking a paddle at sunset, the townhouse includes a deeded, commercial-grade boat dock with private marina access for boating, kayaking, or stand-up paddling. In the marina, it’s not unusual to head to dinner or even Costco by water.

Central A/C. Hardwood and tile flooring. Upgraded windows and doors. Plantation shutters and privacy blinds in the bedrooms.

Lanais at the front, side, and rear extend the living space outdoors, finished with stamped concrete and synthetic turf. Built-in cabinetry, exterior storage, and a wood-finished attic provide practical storage. Two covered parking stalls are included.

Twenty-six owned, net metered photovoltaic panels offset electrical use. The popcorn ceilings were removed in February 2026, replacing the original textured finish with a smoother surface. Should popcorn ever return to favor, the ceilings are ready.

Community amenities include a pool, clubhouse, guest parking, and an on-site resident manager. Located approximately 15 minutes from downtown Honolulu and across from Maunalua Bay, with Hawaii Kai amenities nearby: Costco, Safeway, Koko Marina, beaches, and more.

The layout, waterfront position, and dock access define how the home lives day to day. If those elements are priorities for you, the decision makes itself.

What is it?

Hawaiʻi Kai

Immediately after telling someone you live in Hawaiʻi Kai, pause. Why? Because your listener is going to reflexively respond, “It’s so beautiful over there.”

Founded by Henry J. Kaiser in 1961 as Hawaiʻi’s first master-planned community, Hawaiʻi Kai is defined by water, ridgelines, and the rhythm of daily life at the edge of the Pacific.

Along this stretch of coastline, the calm clarity of Hanauma Bay draws snorkelers from around the world, while just beyond the hill, Sandy Beach delivers shore break power that locals respect and lifeguards watch closely. Sunrise regulars climb the Koko Crater Railway Trail, rail ties turned stairway, while below the Koko Crater Botanical Garden shelters dryland palms, cacti, and a surprising grove of plumeria in bloom.

Evenings unfold differently: sunset at China Walls, a walk along the marina promenade, or a quiet stop at Makapuʻu Lighthouse Trail for wind and horizon.

Hawaiʻi Kai isn’t Waikīkī. It isn’t town. It’s a coastal community where water and mountain frame everyday life — and where the route home always bends back toward the marina.

FUN FACT: the towering cone above Hawaiʻi Kai is Koko Crater. Koko Head is the slender ridge that defines the southeastern shoreline and holds Hanauma Bay within its opened crater. Once you know, you know.
