Makakilo Oahu Real Estate

From the heights of Makakilo, you can take in sweeping views of the southern shores of Oahu, all the way from Barber's Point and Kapolei below to the iconic profile of Diamond Head some 26 miles away. Makakilo real estate affords many residents panoramic Pacific Ocean views from an elevation as high as 600 feet above sea level. Makakilo is perched above the fast-developing town of Kapolei, which has earned its name as Oahu's Second City. In nearby Kapolei, you'll find every convenience. There's a Costco, a Home Depot, and a Target location, as well as restaurants, supermarkets, entertainment, banks and pharmacies. This is excellent news for those who invested in Makakilo real estate before the boom. Many Makakilo residents have watched the area grow up around them, yet Makakilo homeowners get to enjoy a slower, more relaxed pace and less traffic.

The two areas are divided by the H-1 highway so that Makakilo residents have all the benefits of the nearby shopping and dining, with none of the hassles or potential for development creeping over into their hillside haven. While the fast-paced development below is perpetually kept at bay, Makakilo homes have little risk of having their beautiful views impeded, due to their elevation. Makakilo also enjoys cooler temperatures, though not as chilly as Kula on Maui, or Waimea on the Big Island. 

Nearby, there are uncrowded beaches, plenty of world-class golf, a resort haven just up the highway in Ko Olina, and all the amenities of nearby Kapolei -- all of this just a short (in distance) commute to downtown Honolulu. Traffic to and from town can be tough, but Honolulu's high-speed rail development is in full swing and is designed to provide a high-speed alternative for business commuters. Makakilo development began in the 1960s and has progressed further up the hillside since then, with a variety of single-family homes and townhomes. Developer D.R. Horton has been active in expanding Makakilo and Kapolei in recent decades, adding an array of brand new homes for sale in Makakilo and Kapolei. Plenty of parks and green spaces add to the lifestyle enjoyed by Makakilo residents. Makakilo Neighborhood Park offers incredible city and ocean views in the daytime and into the evening; it's a favorite spot for locals to view the Honolulu skyline and Diamond Head in the distance.
