The Ala Moana District: Where Luxury Meets Location

The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Honolulu occupies a premier location at 1687 Kapiolani Blvd, at the intersection of Kapiolani Boulevard and Atkinson Drive in the heart of the Ala Moana District. This location was strategically chosen for its accessibility, views, and proximity to some of Oahu's most important destinations. The project was the first approved development in the Ala Moana Transit-Oriented District, signaling its importance in the future of Honolulu's urban landscape.

Ala Moana Center and Shopping

Directly across the street from the tower site is Ala Moana Center, widely recognized as one of the largest open-air shopping centers in the world. With hundreds of stores ranging from luxury international brands to local boutiques, residents enjoy unparalleled walkable access to shopping, dining, and entertainment options that draw visitors from across the globe.

The proximity to Ala Moana Center means residents can access world-class retail within minutes on foot, from high-end fashion to everyday necessities, fine dining to casual eateries, and services of every kind.

Beaches, Parks, and Natural Beauty

Ala Moana Beach Park is located within easy walking distance from the tower, offering one of Honolulu's most popular stretches of white sand and calm waters. The park provides a peaceful counterpoint to the urban energy of the surrounding district, with space for morning jogs, sunset strolls, and ocean activities.

Waikiki is also nearby, providing residents with quick access to the famous beach, hotels, restaurants, and nightlife that have made it one of the most recognized destinations in the world. The tower's position effectively bridges Waikiki and urban Honolulu, offering the best of both worlds.

Transit and Connectivity

The future Ala Moana rail transit station on the Skyline is planned for the area, which will further enhance connectivity to the rest of Oahu. The Hawaii Convention Center sits directly across from the tower site, adding to the area's significance as a hub for business and events. The Ala Moana Transit-Oriented District designation reflects the city's long-term vision for the area as a walkable, connected urban center.

From the upper floors of the 37-story, 418-foot tower, residents can expect unobstructed panoramic views in multiple directions: Diamond Head to the east, the vast Pacific Ocean to the south, the Ko'olau Mountains to the north, and Waikiki and Ala Moana stretching along the coastline.
