One Kalakaua Senior Living

Welcome to One Kalakaua Senior Living,
Honolulu's premier, fee simple, full service retirement community.

OKSL concept and overview

OKSL was developed and built by One Kalakaua Partners to offer discriminating seniors  a comfortable, convenient lifestyle in the heart of Honolulu providing a friendly, secure ohana atmosphere with top notch food and professional health care services.

Nationally acclaimed senior management leader, Life Care Services Corporation, of Des Moines, Iowa, collaborated with Wimberly, Allison, Tong and Goo, a world renowned architectural firm based in Honolulu, to bring the developer’s concept to reality using the latest trends and concepts found in upscale retirement communities on the mainland.

OKSL opened for occupancy on October 10, 1997 offering 166 fee simple independent living condominiums consisting of 1B/1B, 2B/1B and 2B/2B floor plans, an in-house, 24 hour a day, assistance in living program licensed by the State of Hawaii, and Hale Ola Kino, a 32 bed, medicare and medicaid licensed skilled nursing facility (SNF) located in-house on the 2^nd floor.

Location OKSL is located on the ewa-mauka (northwest) corner of the Kalakaua Avenue and Young Street, approximately 1 mile from Waikiki. This central location makes getting around Honolulu quick and easy. The Bus stop for Ewa bound transportation to down town Honolulu and beyond is right across Beretania Street, a main artery that borders our property on the north. Diamond Head or Waikiki bound public transportation is located one block from OKSL at the corner of King Street and Kalakaua Avenue.
