Tucked into one of Oahu's lush valleys is the charming neighborhood of Manoa. An almost daily rainfall makes Manoa relatively cooler than other parts of the island, giving way to verdant mountains and a lively stream that cuts across the neighborhood. Its unique climate and convenient location has made it among the most sought-after neighborhoods on the island.

Its central location makes it an ideal home for those seeking proximity to downtown Honolulu. And yet, as it is ensconced within a valley, Manoa retains a charming, small-town feel. Though just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Honolulu, arriving at the neighborhood feels like entering a retreat, one that is worlds away in climate and ambience from downtown.

 Nearby are among Hawaii’s most prestigious private and public schools. These public and private school institutions have greatly added to the neighborhood’s desirability among prospective families. And at the start of Manoa is the University of Hawai‘i at Manoa, the public university’s flagship campus, prominent for its sprawling grounds and advanced research facilities. Though it remains close to one of the island’s main universities, Manoa is not a college town. Its residents are well-established professionals who seek respite amid the neighborhood’s tranquility.

Central to the neighborhood is a community center, with a gymnasium and a pool, and numerous parks, including a community garden. Manoa also offers one of Oahu’s most charming neighborhood shopping areas with restaurants serving a wide variety of local and international fare. Upper Manoa boasts hiking trails teeming with Hawaii’s rainforest wildlife. World-famous hiking trails like Manoa Falls are so close it can feel like they are in one’s own backyard.

Manoa’s architecture remains well-preserved and its streets are populated by a host of historic homes, some dating all the way back to the early 1900s. These grand yet quaint structures add to the neighborhood’s charming allure. The neighborhood center affords close access to grocery stores, boutique shops, and a variety of dining options. The shopping center hosts a weekly farmers market and nearby are fine-art opportunities like the Manoa Valley Theater and the Kennedy Theater.
