Park Lane Ala Moana is an ultra-luxury mid-rise condominium built in 2017 by Kobayashi Group and MacNaughton, the same developers behind Hokua, One Ala Moana, and Alia. Located directly above Ala Moana Center on a rare 7.3-acre parcel, it is the largest condominium development site in Honolulu.
The project reflects architectural influences from Vladimir Ossipoff and offers over 100 layouts averaging ~2,000 sq ft, with larger residences spanning ~2,700–4,100 sq ft. Three grand penthouses on the 8th floor (Buildings 3, 5, 6) range from ~5,000–6,500 sq ft. A 1,000-ft “Park Lane” walkway connects all seven structures.
Residential floors run from Levels 3–8; although the overall height measures ~100 ft from ground level, the residential portion consists of six floors.
Indoor–outdoor living is a defining feature: sliding glass walls open to lanais built flush with interior flooring for a seamless transition. Most units include a built-in lanai BBQ station (except Building 1).
Each building contains a small number of residences, creating a quieter and more residential atmosphere than typical Honolulu towers. Despite Park Lane’s position along Ala Moana Blvd and Piikoi St, the window systems provide exceptional sound insulation once closed.
Vehicle entry is via a ramp from Piikoi St to the 5th-floor lobby or through the 3rd-floor gated parking garage. The property includes 17 residential elevators plus 3 additional elevators for street and mall access.
Direct elevator access into Ala Moana Center is a signature convenience, and service quality throughout the property is among the best in Hawaii.
Park Lane offers an extensive collection of refined amenities maintained at an ultra-luxury level. These include beautifully landscaped walking paths with about 675 trees and 35 fruit trees, a resort-style pool and hot tub, a spa with massage rooms and steam & sauna, a fitness studio, yoga room, movie theater, private dining rooms, wine bar with personal lockers, dog park, children's play area, and 3 guest suites.
Amenity areas are primarily located near Buildings 1–3, while residents of Buildings 6–8 walk farther due to the project’s expansive scale.
Most residences include a private storage room, typically larger than those found in other luxury and ultra-luxury Honolulu condos.
Units on Levels 3–4 in rear positions also include private garages with direct access into the home, creating a unique house-like entry experience. From Level 5 upward, no private garages exist.
1BR Residences: Located exclusively in Building 1, with a few 2BR layouts also found in this structure. Most 1BR units include 1 parking stall.
2BR, 3BR, 4BR & Grand Residences: Found throughout Buildings 2–8, including 3 grand penthouses on the 8th floor (Buildings 3, 5, 6).
1. Ocean Residences (Front Units along Ala Moana Blvd)
Upper floors (Levels 6–8) offer dramatic ocean, beach, and Waikiki skyline views. Because Park Lane sits directly across Ala Moana Beach Park, the ocean feels unusually close. Lanais are less frequently used due to street noise, though interior sound insulation is excellent once windows are closed.
2. Courtyard Residences (Middle Units)
These units face toward other Park Lane residences and typically enjoy angled ocean views. Privacy varies by stack due to lanais facing each other across interior courtyards.
3. Park, Island & Sky Residences
Located in the rear portions of Buildings 2–8, these units offer the quietest lanais and the most enjoyable balcony experience. Select 3rd-floor layouts include private yards and pools, and some 3rd–4th floor units include private garages.
The combination of low-density living, exceptional service, and highly usable lanais creates a uniquely residential feel uncommon in Honolulu condos. Indoor–outdoor living is genuinely achieved due to flush lanai transitions and oversized balcony spaces.
Construction quality is extremely high, and direct mall access offers unmatched everyday convenience.

| Exceptional service & ultra-luxury amenities | Front lanais less usable due to Ala Moana Blvd noise |
| Highly usable lanais & true indoor–outdoor living | Courtyard units have reduced privacy due to facing stacks |
| Rear Park/Island/Sky units offer quiet, enjoyable outdoor spaces | Walking around the immediate area is less scenic than Ward Village |
1. Do most units have usable lanais?

Front lanais experience traffic noise, but interior sound insulation is excellent once windows are closed.
