Description
Extensively and beautifully upgraded 14th-floor unit in a prime location! The view from the lanai is the best, or among the best, of all Oahu condos, surpassing even that from the upper floors. The view passes over a lovely park and the Ala Wai Canal with the contrasting spectacle of Waikiki beyond and glimpses of the ocean. At night, you will experience a magical view of the Waikiki lights that frame the park and canal. Be the first to experience the remodeled kitchen and BRAND NEW features including: Samsung refrigerator with ice maker, range with microwave hood, cabinets, fixtures, vinyl plank flooring, lighting, in-unit washer dryer, and shower doors. Extraordinarily robust cool and refreshing mountain breezes waft through the unit, so there is no need for AC, an opinion shared by virtually all of the units on that side. This remarkably maintained pet-friendly building has 24X7 security and exquisite resort-style amenities: large pool, gym, recreation room, BBQs. Conveniently located near parks, shopping, dining, and entertainment. Be sure to click the provided virtual tour link to see the view from the lanai!
