I feel so blessed to live here. God is good🙌🏾
God is good indeed. Enjoy East O'ahu.
We are relocating to Maui next month - beyond grateful 🙌🏾
It used to be a gigantic fish pond, when I was growing up. I transferred to a Kuliouou bus and traveled to the end of the line just pass the fish pond to hike up the hill to go to Hanauma Bay. This was back in the Forties. I left Hawaii in 1953.
Thanks for sharing that owleyes. I'm somewhat in awe what Mr. Kaiser did to transform the area, but would love to see the area as it was prior to development. So I'm somewhat envious of you.
@@enjoylivinginhawaii Kaiser built his house at the end of Portlock Road or thereabout is all I remember about Kaiser. He was an aluminum manufacturer, but I don't know if he was behind the Kaiser automobile.
I grew up here.
The one place I saw was my address for a time was the Moorings, waterfront facing the island.
Hi @michellemevans3213 - thanks for watching my video and neat you were able to see the place you grew up. Aloha
Hawaii Kai has such beautiful, safe neighborhoods. I'm going to check out open houses there tomorrow, looks like a few 4 bedroom houses under $2M which seem like good values.
Yes, it is a great place to live. Enjoy the tours tomorrow and contact me anytime if I can be of value to you in your home search.
I remember looking at a two bedroom condo at The Esplanade with my parents in the mid 80s. They were going to retire there. I wish they had bought it. 😞
When I was a teen we used to call it The Espionage lol
I lived in Hawaii Kai in the mid 80's for about a year and a half. I have amazing memories from that time in my life.
@@frankfaber5550 I just have amazing memories of visiting. Haven’t been there in 30 years, sadly.
@@StephanieSharp2 Sadly I have not been back in over 35 years! In my 30's I moved to the Virgin Islands for a few years. What a great time that was. I had so many adventures around those islands. I just turned 60 and I'm pretty much retired. I want to find a new adventure.
Beautiful area.... more a Portlock guy myself.
Yes, that's understandable. Beautiful area
I was a Portlock kid. My dream would be to make enough $$ to buy our old place and have anyone in my family who wants to, come live there.
@@alexcarter8807 are you willing to adopt a 58 yo almost 59 yo woman. 😊
Welcome to Hawaii Krai😫..our over priced, over developed best kept little secret. 😆
Who is/are the artist/s gifting us with such beautiful music [especially the opening piece]?
1st Song Artist Is Dust Follow and song is "Swan". 2nd artist is Gavin Luke and song is "If You Were Still Here. Last is Epidemic Sound "After the Rain. Enjoy
@@enjoylivinginhawaii Mahalo nut loa👍🏾
Property in that area is highly coveted and starts over $2million.
Actually you can still find a nice townhome for under $1M and a single family home between $1M-$2M. Here is a marina front townhome currently on the market: matrix.hicentralmls.com/Matrix/Public/Portal.aspx?p=DE-26119848-692&k=390196X5B39&eml=YnJ5YW52dWtlbGljaEBoYXdhaWlsaWZlLmNvbQ==
Why are there no buildings on the mountains? Why are there no large ships, yachts, ferries, or cruise liners in the canal part, I'm confused here? most of those islands are missing a central skyscraper or something to look up to from your house. Dubai is in a lot of ways more attractive because they incorporate a tower or skyscraper in every community. Hawaii needs more skyscrapers everywhere, it will eventually run out of land to build and the housing that they do have is not sufficient enough for the population size that is expected to be there 50 years from now.
That would ruin the beauty of Hawaii!! Especially, in Hawaii Kai!! Let Dubai stay Dubai and beautiful Hawaii will always be beautiful Hawaii!! Hopefully, the natives not all of them would be alot nicer to people that move there from the states particularly, Texas! I've moved back because they were horribly mean! They hated my accent and blonde hair and told me to go back home and I was trying to get acclamated with my husband working for the government on Fort Shafter. The natives there were absolutely brutal to me. I found a Lutheran church on the other side of the island which was pretty tough to find. I joined a workout group on Ford Island which was nice and the ladies were really friendly and understood my situation with the unfriendlies. The island itself is absolutely stunning as long as you are not living there and only coming as a tourist then they are sweet as molasses!! Mahalo!!🙏🤙🌴
I hate this area. Moved out due to nosy Karens all over
Thanks for the comment Joey. Unfortunate about the nosy Karens that you experienced. Do you find a neighborhood you enjoyed living in?

@@alive4082 Hard to beat that area - enjoy
