Ka'ulu by Gentry is a 390-home master-planned community in Kalaeloa on Oahu's West Side. Developed by Gentry Homes, Ka'ulu offers both townhomes and detached single-family residences with modern finishes, energy-efficient features, and pricing designed for local buyers. Here's what you need to know about this growing neighborhood.

Where Is Ka'ulu Located?

Ka'ulu sits in the Kalaeloa area of West Oahu, near the former Barbers Point Naval Air Station. The community is accessible via Coral Sea Road and Roosevelt Avenue, with convenient access to the H-1 freeway. Nearby areas include Kapolei, Ewa Beach, and the expanding rail corridor. Commuters can reach downtown Honolulu in approximately 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic conditions.

Home Types Available at Ka'ulu

Ka'ulu includes two main home types. The townhome collection features two-story attached units with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, enclosed one-car garages, and compact floor plans starting from approximately 1,140 square feet. Townhome pricing begins around $630,000 as of early 2026. The single-family collection includes three detached floor plans — Aukai, Makali'i, and Hoku — all with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, two-car garages, and living areas ranging from approximately 1,508 to 1,592 square feet. Single-family pricing starts from approximately $920,000.

Standard Features and Finishes

All Ka'ulu homes come with 9-foot ceilings, LVP flooring, GE stainless steel appliances, Kohler fixtures, central AC (SEER2 16+), solar water heating, spray foam insulation, low-E windows, and fiber-optic wiring. Single-family homes also include EV-ready garages and USB outlets. Optional upgrades are available for quartz countertops, premium appliance packages (GE Cafe or Fisher & Paykel), ceiling fans, and home automation systems.

The Ka'ulu Purchase Process

Gentry sells Ka'ulu homes through a phased release system. Buyers register their interest, receive notification when a new phase opens, and then submit offers during the release window. Some releases use a lottery-style selection process. Buyers can use conventional, FHA, or VA financing. Because this is new construction, buyers typically work with the developer's purchase agreement. Having your own buyer's agent ensures your interests are represented throughout the process.

Why Work with Your Own Buyer's Agent at Ka'ulu?

Even though Ka'ulu is sold through Gentry's sales office, buyers can and should bring their own licensed agent. Your agent reviews the purchase agreement, explains the phase release process, helps you compare floor plans and lot options, and ensures your interests are protected from start to close. For resale Ka'ulu homes, an experienced agent familiar with the community's pricing trends provides additional value.

Is Ka'ulu Right for You?

Ka'ulu may be a good fit if you are looking for new-construction homes in a planned community, want modern energy-efficient features at a competitive price point for Oahu, or need proximity to Kapolei job centers, military installations, and West Side amenities. Families may also value the nearby schools, parks, and the developing retail infrastructure in the Kalaeloa area.
