Seven hundred feet above Hawaiʻi Kai, a neighborhood of custom estates commands views that stretch from Diamond Head to Molokaʻi. Na Pali Haweo, meaning “the cliffs of distinction” in Hawaiian, delivers exactly what its name promises.

Design Without Compromise

Every home here tells a different story. Steel-frame contemporary estates with floor-to-ceiling glass sit alongside Mediterranean-inspired villas, each architect-designed to maximize the extraordinary views. No templates. No repetition. Lots start at 10,000 square feet, with many exceeding 20,000, giving homeowners space that’s nearly unheard of in Honolulu. The developers planned something remarkably thoughtful: view corridors guaranteed for every lot, regardless of future construction. Your sunset is protected.

Five Minutes to Everywhere That Matters

The location feels remote but delivers convenience. Hanauma Bay’s world-class snorkeling sits five minutes away. Sandy Beach’s legendary shore break draws bodyboarders from across the island. The Koko Crater Trail’s 1,048 steps offer one of Oʻahu’s most challenging hikes, with summit views spanning the entire south shore. Maunalua Bay provides flat-water paddling and kayaking. And Koko Marina Center’s waterfront restaurants, from Kona Brewing Company to Roy’s original location, make dinner an experience rather than an errand.

The Numbers Tell The Story

Na Pali Haweo’s median sale price reached $2,912,500 over the past year, with only 2-4 homes typically trading annually. That scarcity keeps values strong. Current listings range from $1.8 million to over $5.8 million. For families, the Kaiser Complex schools offer Hawaiʻi’s only complete public K-12 International Baccalaureate pathway. Add 24-hour security patrol and a private community park with its own lookout, and you understand why turnover is so limited.
