The month of August belongs to Kapolei - where sunshine, beautiful homes and great amenities are just around the corner. During the month of August we'll share useful information, helpful resources, photos, infographics and more to help you make the most of living in Kapolei – or learn more about this growing community.

In the comments below, tell us where in Kapolei this photo was taken and we will enter your name in a drawing to win a $30 gift certificate to Monkeypod Kitchen!* 

Kapolei lies on the southwest side of Oahu, and is quickly becoming Oahu's second urban center. Prior to residential development in 1980, the entire area was nothing but acres of sugar cane fields. Today, Kapolei is home to nearly 12,000 homes and condos, and the Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting anticipates that number will exceed 50,000 by 2035. 

Residents of this West Oahu community enjoy access to an array of modern amenities. Several major shopping centers, national big box retailers and eateries from local sushi joints to upscale restaurants cater to every taste.

Want to get away? Kapolei residents are just a short drive from the beautiful Ko Olina Resorts, where there is something for everyone. Families can escape to Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa, while avid golfers can plan an outing to the JW Marriott Ihilani, which was recently named one of the "Top 15 Hawaii Golf Resorts" by Travel + Leisure.

Take a drive out West to see why more than 40,000 people are happy to call this vibrant and thriving community home!
