Ho’opili Map & Neighborhoods Guide

ʻAhakea update — September 29, 2026: Detached GenHomes are the first phase; the second phase adds townhomes and attached FLEX homes. Older detached prices below are historical, not current offers. Confirm pricing and availability by home type. Compare the two phases.

Ho‘opili pricing note, October 30, 2026: Prices and available homes change weekly, so this map shows status only. For current prices, see the Hoʻopili overview and the dated Ho‘opili pricing guide.

Hoʻopili spans roughly 1,500 acres between Ewa Beach and Kapolei on Oʻahu’s west side, with about 11,750 planned homes across 18+ neighborhoods built over a 20-year master plan by D.R. Horton. As of October 30, 2026, D.R. Horton lists Kāpili, Uluwehi, ʻAhakea and Nanahea as Now Selling and labels Alana Sold Out, while more than a dozen earlier neighborhoods are complete and sold out and several future phases remain on the drawing board. This hoʻopili map guide breaks down every neighborhood by location, status, and home type so you can orient yourself before visiting or buying.

Hoʻopili Map: Understanding the Layout

Hoʻopili stretches from Fort Weaver Road on the east to Kualakai Parkway on the west, sitting just north of Ka Makana Aliʻi mall and south of Farrington Highway. The community is organized into distinct phases that have rolled out roughly from east to west over the past decade.

The earliest neighborhoods—Akoko, Haʻakea, and Hāloa—sit in the eastern portion closest to Ewa Beach. Middle phases like Hoʻoulu, Iliahi, Kanalani, and Ikena fill the central corridor near Konane Park and the Soho Community Center. The newer neighborhoods include the Pōhaku Estates section (Alana and Kāpili) on the western edge closer to Kapolei and the future East Kapolei High School site, plus Uluwehi, ʻAhakea, and Nanahea on the Ewa Beach side.

Two Honolulu Rail Transit (Skyline) stations bookend the development: the Keoneʻae (UH West Oʻahu) Station on the western edge, next to the university, and the Honouliuli (Hoʻopili) Station to the northeast, toward Farrington Highway. Both stations have been open since June 2023, and Skyline’s Segment 2 (October 2025) extended service through Pearl Harbor and the airport to Middle Street—so residents can already ride toward town without a car. HART targets March 2031 for service to the Civic Center station downtown. The Kakaʻako and Ala Moana stations will be built in a later phase.

Current and Recent Releases

Statuses checked on drhorton.com October 30, 2026. Prices change weekly; see each neighborhood page. Alana and Kāpili are part of the Pōhaku Estates section on the Kapolei side; Uluwehi, ʻAhakea, and Nanahea sit on the Ewa Beach side of the development.

Future Planned Phases

D.R. Horton has not publicly announced all remaining phase names, but the Hoʻopili master plan calls for continued development through approximately 2035. Expect additional single-family, townhome, and mixed-use neighborhoods to be released over the coming years, expanding further west toward Kualakai Parkway. Future phases will likely include more affordable housing lottery opportunities as well as market-rate offerings.

Based on the development pattern so far, D.R. Horton typically releases new neighborhoods in small batches every 12–18 months, often grouping them into themed “collections” like the current Pōhaku Estates phase. To stay informed about upcoming releases, monitor the official Hoʻopili website or sign up for their interest list—new phase announcements usually come with 3–6 months’ notice before sales launch. Affordable housing lottery phases are announced separately through the Hawaiʻi Housing Finance and Development Corporation (HHFDC), typically requiring advance registration and income verification before the lottery draw.

Key Landmarks on the Hoʻopili Map

Beyond the residential neighborhoods, Hoʻopili’s master plan includes infrastructure that sets it apart from other Oʻahu developments. Schools, parks, rail stations, and commercial zones are woven into the community rather than tacked on as afterthoughts. Here’s what buyers should know about each category.

Rail Transit Stations

Two Skyline rail stations serve Hoʻopili, providing car-free access to Honolulu:

• Keoneʻae (UH West Oʻahu) Station — western edge of the development, adjacent to the university campus
• Honouliuli (Hoʻopili) Station — north-central area toward Farrington Highway, planned as a “downtown” transit hub with mixed-use development around it

Schools (5 Planned)

• 3 Elementary Schools — the first, East Kapolei Elementary, broke ground October 14, 2026 and is expected to open for the 2029–30 school year
• 1 Middle School — planned for the central area
• 1 High School — a future East Kapolei high school is planned; no construction start has been announced

Parks & Recreation (9 Planned)

• Konane Park — the community’s main park with soccer fields, playground, and open green space (completed)
• Soho Park & Community Center — recreation center with pool, gathering spaces (completed)
• Bark and Ride Dog Park — off-leash dog area near the rail station (completed)
• The Pearl — exercise park near The Bluffs at Ikena (completed)
• Basketball, Volleyball & Pickleball Courts — near the Hoʻoulu neighborhood (completed)
• Community Garden — located near the Kaikea neighborhood (completed)
• Additional Recreation Centers — 7 total rec centers with pools planned at build-out

Commercial & Retail

• Ka Makana Aliʻi Mall — major shopping center just south of Hoʻopili with restaurants, movie theater, retail
• FLEX Home Commercial Zones — ground-floor business spaces in mixed-use neighborhoods like Kohina and Noho Papa
• Planned Retail & Office Space — about 3 million sq ft of commercial space in the master plan

Hoʻopili Walking & Biking Trail Network

One of Hoʻopili’s standout features is its emphasis on walkability and connectivity. The master plan includes a network of multi-use paths and sidewalks linking neighborhoods to parks, schools, and transit stations. Key trail features include:

• Neighborhood connector paths — dedicated walking and biking paths run between most completed neighborhoods, making it easy to reach parks and the community center without driving
• Rail station access trails — pedestrian paths connect residential areas directly to both Skyline stations
• Park loop trails — paths circling Konane Park and other green spaces offer recreational walking routes
• Future expansion — as new phases build out, the trail network will extend westward, eventually connecting all neighborhoods in a continuous loop
• ADA accessibility — paths are designed to ADA standards with gentle grades, making them accessible for strollers, wheelchairs, and electric scooters

For residents who prefer not to drive, the combination of rail transit, walking paths, and close proximity to Ka Makana Aliʻi creates a rare “live, work, play” environment for West Oʻahu.

Geographic Context: How Hoʻopili Connects to West Oʻahu

Hoʻopili sits at the geographic heart of Oʻahu’s fastest-growing corridor. Here’s how it connects to key destinations:

• Kapolei Town Center: ~5 minutes west via Kualakai Parkway
• Ka Makana Aliʻi Mall: Adjacent, walkable from southern neighborhoods
• White Plains Beach: ~10 minutes south
• Joint Base Pearl Harbor–Hickam: ~20 minutes east via H-1
• Schofield Barracks: ~25 minutes north via H-2
• Downtown Honolulu: ~30–40 minutes via H-1 (or Skyline rail toward town)
• Daniel K. Inouye International Airport: ~25 minutes east via H-1

Military families stationed at Pearl Harbor, Schofield Barracks, or Camp H.M. Smith find Hoʻopili attractive for its relative affordability and proximity to multiple bases. Skyline service from the two Hoʻopili stations reduces commute dependency on the often-congested H-1 freeway.

Most Hoʻopili residents access the H-1 freeway via Exit 3 (Kualakaʻi Parkway) or Exit 5 (Fort Weaver Road). Peak-hour commutes to town can stretch 45–60 minutes during rush hour (6:30–8:30 AM eastbound, 3:30–6:00 PM westbound), but off-peak drives to Pearl Harbor or the airport typically stay under 25 minutes. The westbound commute against traffic is almost always smooth for those working in Kapolei or at military installations west of Pearl Harbor.
