Located adjacent to the famous Ala Moana Center, The Central Ala Moana is the epitome of class and luxury island living in the Midtown Ala Moana neighborhood. Developed by Samkoo Pacific and Design Partners Incorporated, this is their second partnership development since the completion of Kapiolani Residence in 2018 (just down Kapiolani Boulevard from The Central Ala Moana). This development's luxurious finishes, plentiful amenities, and excellent location in Midtown Ala Moana make this one of the most popular residential towers in the area, as residents are able to get the best of both island outdoor life (being a short distance from Ala Moana Beach Park) as well as urban, bustling city life.
The Neighborhood
The Central Ala Moana is located directly across Kapiolani Boulevard from the upcoming Sky Ala Moana lot. One more street North is Walmart and Sam's Club, which means any groceries, daily necessities, and even larger purchases are right outside The Central Ala Moana residents' doorsteps. The Central Ala Moana is also surrounded by a variety of restaurants, including Ireh (a Korean restaurant), Yung Yee Kee Dim Sum, Pandora Café Karaoke/Bar & Grill, Kickin Kajun Honolulu, and Malu Honolulu (a café).
Sitting directly behind The Central Ala Moana is the largest open-air shopping center in the world- the Ala Moana Center. Walking down Kapiolani Boulevard will bring you to Target, Planet Fitness, and the Bank of Hawai'i, and just a bit further South will bring you to the main portion of the shopping mall. The Ala Moana Center is home to hundreds of designer boutiques, local shops, fast fashion chain stores, restaurants within a large cafeteria, and even year-round live performances.
Across Ala Moana Boulevard from the Ala Moana Center is Ala Moana Beach Park, which is a great place for outdoor exercising, playing with pets, and having picnics with friends and family. This park also features a beach, an L&L Hawaiian Barbecue restaurant, a Biki bike station, tennis and beach volleyball courts, and the Magic Island Lagoon. All of this is just a 5-minute drive from The Central Ala Moana, or just a 10-minute walk if you prefer to get some extra exercise on foot.
