Kainalu penthouse condo for sale in Diamond Head

Stunning Kainalu Penthouse condo for sale – Diamond Head

While much of the excitement around condo living in Honolulu is focused on Kakaako with all of the new luxury condos sprouting up, there are other decadent condos that are older and arguably much more interesting.  The Gold Coast at the base of Diamond Head on Oahu and at the end of Kalakaua Avenue is an eclectic grouping of condominiums and co-ops.  The buildings all seem tightly packed together and are right on the ocean.  Each one has its own personality and allure.

While some of these buildings attract visitors, there are some buildings that have strict guidelines to prevent vacationers from taking over their buildings.  It is a good thing too.  That strictness has kept this area generally quiet, peaceful and friendly.  These buildings represent more old Hawaii, where the focus is more on living aloha and living for the ocean.  Being up close to the ocean day in and day out is what attracts residents.  People that come here love ocean whether they surf or not.  They are willing to forgo an endless number of amenities to just live on the ocean.  The fact is that this area just moves at a more leisurely pace, which is more indicative of Hawaii living.

I have many favorites buildings for different reasons along the Gold Coast.  One of these favorites is the Kainalu.   The Kainalu condo is actually a co-operative that sits at the very end of Kalakaua and the address is actually on Coconut Avenue.  This is an 8-story building with maximum of 8 units per floor.  The prime units are the ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’ units.  These units face straight out to the ocean and have the most amazing views.  The penthouse units 8B and C were combined into one large unit and it is on the market.  The unit has 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.  with almost 2500 square feet of interior.  The entire wall on the ocean side completely opens up.  This is really bringing the outdoors inside.  The unit is lovely and even has the master bedroom and limestone bath that opens up to the ocean.  There is no other unit that is quite like this.  This unit and this building are definitely a “must-see”.
