This week has a little of everything. We're starting with our newest listing at Sky Ala Moana — a high-floor one-bedroom with ocean and city views over Magic Island, move-in ready at $795,000. Then a project we've been waiting to share: Aria Lane, 76 detached single-family homes coming to Mānoa, where new construction almost never happens. And to round things out, we're heading to Kakaʻako for a neighborhood spotlight and a café you may have walked right past without noticing.

Neighborhood Spotlight: Kakaʻako

There's a reason Kakaʻako is one of Oʻahu's most sought-after urban communities. From vibrant street art and breezy waterfront parks to an amazing local culinary scene, this neighborhood truly has something for everyone.
If you're in the area, one of our absolute favorite spots is Cafe Lapin. Perched upstairs as a true hidden gem inside a shared space with a nail and hair salon, it offers a uniquely charming, cozy atmosphere perfect for slowing down. Whether you're swinging by for a lavender honey cold foam matcha or enjoying a dashi tamago egg sando while exploring the neighborhood, they do everything exceptionally well.
Beyond the food, Kakaʻako is known for its energetic and elevated lifestyle. Ranging from sleek luxury high-rises and modern condos to highly accessible, easy-to-navigate streets, it strikes the perfect balance of urban culture and coastal comfort. With easy access to Ala Moana Center, boutique shopping within Ward Village, and a constantly evolving art and food scene, the best of Honolulu is always right outside your door.
