"On the isle of Oahu, the day is just begun / Relax is number one / 'Don't rush me haole, there's plenty of sun.'" -Aloha Honolulu, Poi Dog Pondering

Located on the island of Oahu is the small town of Halawa, just a few miles away from the legendary Waikiki Beach and tropical tourism paradise of Honolulu. Compared to most places on the island of Oahu, Halawa is relatively spread out and rural-feeling; the land has two streams running through it, and there are many dense forests and hills. Halawa was a land that was very important to native Hawaiians, and today, natives are trying to protect the beauty of the land there. However, there are also lovely neighborhoods in this area, where residents can both enjoy and soak up the natural splendor of the island, and enjoy the many amenities that the neighborhoods and the surrounding towns have to offer.

Moving to Halawa

If you want to find an apartment rental in Halawa, you'll want to plan some time to search! Housing isn't necessarily abundant, but once you do find an apartment for rent you like, you're going to want to scoop it up. Who doesn't want to live in paradise, after all? The first thing you need to do during your move to Halawa is to get ready to apply for a lease. It might be far away, but it's still the USA, and rental procedures go the same way no matter where you are. Bring your tax returns, proof of income, pay stubs, letters of employment and letters of reference so you can prove to a potential landlord that you're going to be a good tenant. Get ready to make a deposit, too! To secure your dream apartment for rent, you have to put some money down - usually about twice the normal rent (sometimes triple!), so be sure to pinch your pennies and save up before you make your big move to paradise.

Halawa Neighborhoods

In reality, many people consider Halawa to be a neighborhood of Oahu itself. But, the fact of the matter is that it's technically a town, and within most towns, there are smaller neighborhoods. The neighborhoods on Halawa differ in terms of pace, location, general feel, and community. If you want to make sure you end up living in the right area in Halawa, check out the list below! It contains helpful information about where you should live and where you will feel happiest finding a home in your new hometown.

Aloha Stadium: The neighborhood around Aloha Stadium is on the seashore. This makes it prime real estate in Halawa! If you're looking for an all bills paid apartment or somewhere luxurious, in this town, this is your best bet. You'll probably find more high-rises than any other kind of building, but it's pretty here, and a lovely place to call home. Aloha Stadium itself is Hawaii's biggest football stadium.

Northeastern Halawa: Inland from the Aloha Stadium area is the part of Halawa that is mainly residential. There are places in this part of town that feel like the real country, but overall it's a strong community. This area is much less touristy than other parts of Oahu, and much of it is still wilderness, making it really feel like the tropical paradise it is.

Living in Halawa

Halawa is on Oahu, yes, but you might be surprised to find that Oahu actually is a big place, and the parts you might imagine being nearby (Waikiki and Manoa) are not anywhere close to Halawa. Halawa certainly has some development, like Aloha Stadium and the land around the U.S.S. Arizona Memorial. However, because of the spiritual significance of the land there and the large swaths of property that have no buildings on them, it can feel like a real retreat from the big city when you're in this area. If you live in Halawa, expect it to feel remote. You'll probably have to drive if you want to get to your favorite and most convenient destinations; there is a bus on Oahu, and it runs fairly regularly, but with a destination so remote, rides can take a long time.

When you venture out of Halawa, you can be in tropical vacation paradise in minutes. Head to Waikiki for those legendary shops, restaurants, or hotels, or head up into Manoa to experience the rainforest. Honolulu is a world-class city, even though it's the most remote population on the entire planet; that means that just a few miles away from your house, you can find tons of history, art, nature, and dining opportunities.
