KOOLANI

Koolani is a 48-story mixed-use condominium located on 1177 Queen Street. It’s got a luxurious resort feel, thanks to its large, elegant lobby with dark wood and stone accents, a concierge front desk, waterfall backdrop, comfortable waiting areas, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and top-of-the-line amenities.

Built-in 2006, this condominium has 370 units for residents and 18,000 square feet of commercial space, which is occupied by Island Club and Spa, a private membership premium fitness club and spa.
