Quiet Oahu enclave

Named after an endemic plant whose flowers were once used to make leis, Aiea gives off small-town vibes with big city draws. Aiea was once one of Oahu’s largest sugar mills but underwent major housing and commercial development in the late 1950s, with many of the homes from the original build still standing today. Located in southeast Oahu and a stone’s throw away from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Aiea’s proximity to locations such as Downtown Honolulu and other military bases make it an attractive place to live. This neighborhood has not lost its strong sense of community, and it shows by the number of local shops and restaurants that have the continued support of residents. Nearby, residents can get medical care from the Straub Medical Center. Aiea offers a quiet place to grow roots while remaining close to other beautiful destinations Oahu offers.

Classic homes and condos

Home prices in Aiea vary depending on the location and lot size but have recently sold between the mid-900,000 range up to $1.6 million.

A collection of high-rise condo buildings can be found in Pearlridge Center and throughout Aiea, offering charming spaces with breathtaking views.
