Waialae Iki: Gaze on Awe Inspiring Natural Beauty of Oahu 
On the slopes directly above the Waialae Country Club in Honolulu is a ridgeline neighborhood known as Waialae Iki. It's an area of over 1,000 homes known mostly for upscale residences with outstanding views of Diamond Head, Koko Head and the ocean. In earlier times taro, sweet potatoes, tobacco, bananas, and sugar cane were grown by a large native population along the shores of Oahu. Waialae Iki was originally planted in pineapple. 
It was later developed in 1965 and sold off in 8,000 to 30,000 sf lots at $3 to $3.50 per sf. ($35,000 to $50,000 for sloping lots). Today, Waialae Iki has matured and now includes the original subdivision - average homes prices above $1,000,000 - as well as a gated subdivision at the top of the ridge, Waialae Iki 5, featuring newer, larger homes priced considerably higher.
