Maunahi Apartments is another of the 'Only in Hawaii' properties made up of 2 different buildings, emphasis on the different. The one that fronts on Maunaihi St itself is a 2 story with clear plantation style influences, included the brown slightly pitched roof that's mimicked in a covering that overhangs the 1st floor, giving it some shade and cover from the elements.
A ramp leading downward on that structure's right side takes you to the 2nd building, which has a more modern, flat roofed design. It's ground floor is open, used for covered parking, with 3 stories rising up from there. Here's what you should know about each:
Building 1 (fronting Maunaihi St)
There are just 4 units here, 2 on each floor and all of them 1BR/1BA with 468 sq ft of space inside. There are no lanais on these, but they are the largest homes in the complex.
Building 2
All of the 18 residences contained in this part of the complex are Studio/1BA, but with 3 intriguing layouts:
346 sq ft inside with 68 sq ft lanai
378 sq ft inside with 72 sq ft lanai
400 sq ft inside with 64 sq ft lanai
In short, the largest unit indoors comes up behind the smaller two when it comes to the key point of lanai space. What makes the views from this back building utterly amazing is that they look like you're gazing out from some multi-story tower.
The landscape’s elevation in this section of Punchbowl puts you at a vantage point that creates sweeping vistas of the city and out to the ocean. You'd never believe this was the view from a 3 story building if you didn't see it for yourself.
Yet being this far back in Punchbowl doesn't mean you're out of reach. Far from it. Prospect St, Pensacola St and Ward Ave all run close by your home, so you have routes right to Downtown, Beretania's grocery & drug stores, H1 and Kakaako for some cutting edge dining and shopping.
With all of those exciting options, it'll often be a nice change to return to your short cul-de-sac street, where peace and quiet await you, day or night. Let's keep this our little secret.
