Hale Luana is officially designated as being in Moiliili neighborhoods, but it sits where a few neighborhoods converge. The far ends of Manoa, Makiki/Punahou and McCully all come close to claiming it, too, so you'll find their individual stamps are here as well.
The wide, green canopied trees and the old kamaaina feel of Punahou and Manoa are present on this strip of Beretania St you live off, most significantly in the historic Central Union Church almost next door. Yet McCully St is just a block east, King St two blocks south, both offering a collection of restaurants and shops you can walk to or drive down McCully right into Waikiki in just a few minutes.
You overlook this mixing bowl of local neighborhoods from your 1BR/1BA home in Hale Luana, containing 488 sq ft of space inside it. However, you can also be assured that there will be a very healthy 137 sq ft of lanai awaiting you, too. Some exceptions exist, due to more than a few owners having enclosed them to expand the interiors.
With the combination of the large lanais and the fact that your neighbors are almost all single family homes, you have clear sightlines to take in the city around you and the verdant Koolau Mountains looking down on our tropical town.
Commuting Downtown is a breeze using Beretania & King Streets each way, whether you drive or catch the bus from the stop almost just outside your door. The freeway is easy to use, too. H1W lets you on from Punahou St, a minute or two away. H1E is entered off Piikoi St, a little longer ride, but still just minutes before you're entering the fast lane.
This all comes in an attractive package, but you must pay attention to when these listings come up as
Honolulu condos for sale. Currently Hale Luana is a mix of Fee Simple & Leasehold, the lease coming up in 2032.
That is a significant difference within the same building, so, in the case of the Leaseholds, real estate strategy and deeper research into the fee's availability is essential.
