My Favorite Hawaii Kai Marina Front Home Communities: Anchorage

 

Anchorage, a waterfront community in Hawaii Kail was built in the 1980s. Of the roughly 108 homes located here, most all of them border the water. Most of the homes are large, from roughly 2,100 square feet to more than 4,000 square feet and were built on large 7,000 to 10,000 square foot lots, leaving plenty of room for pools and large lanais.

Most of these marina front homes have a private dock, so boat owners can enjoy easy access to the inner bay and canals as well as to the ocean.

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: West Marina, in the Hawaii Kai Region

 

West Marina is a relatively large area of Hawaii Kai bordered by Lunalilo Home Road, Hawaii Kai Drive and Kawaihae Street. Homes here were built in the mid 1960′s and is an eclectic mix of architectural styles and varying sizes of homes. Most homes here were built around the Hawaii Kai Marina with seven fingers of land creating marina front lots with boat docks and easy access to Maunalua Bay and the ocean. Homes can range in size from 1,200 to 3,00 square feet.

In 2002-2003, a developer named Stanford Carr built and completed the Hawaii Kai Peninsula project adding new, high-quality condominiums to this area. Some of the Pensinusla is technically considered to be in West Marina.

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Spinnaker Isle, in the Hawaii Kai Region

My Favorite Honolulu Neighborhoods: Spinnaker Isle, in the Hawaii Kai Region

 

Without question, Spinnaker Isle is one of my favorite waterfront neighborhoods in Hawaii Kai. Consisting of 92 single family homes all located on Kumukahi Place and every home has waterfront footage on the Hawaii Kai Marina with backyards facing the water.

The entrance is off Hawaii Kai Drive and across from access to Hahione Valley, a bridge takes you into the community where the road brances into two long cul-de-sacs. Most of these homes were originally built in 1969, although many have been extensively remodeled and most have boat docks with access to the water from their back yard.

Residents here, as a result, also belong to the Hawaii Kai Marina Association. Of course, if you are a lover of water and the ocean, you can imagine the boats and water toys you can keep at your dock and your waterfront back yard.
