That would say something! Everything was clean and organized. Staff were all friendly. Wonderful facilities and lots of activities. Beautiful grounds to walk around the gardens. They have a pool too. The food at the restaurant was amazing. I had the best ever crab crusted salmon. Totally impressed. I wish my friend would move here already because I'd visit him regularly just to eat at the restaurant! Hmm I wonder if I could come here as an outsider just to eat at the restaurant.

When I found out one of my dear friends who I used to play mah jong at her house moved into a…read moresenior living community, I knew I wanted to visit her. I called her daughter to confirm she's now at One Kalakaua Senior Living (OK) and was provided with the room number, along with check in procedures when going. Located at the corner of Young St and Kalakaua Ave, OK opened its doors in 1997 where they offer units for people 55 years or older to purchase and live in. They also provide a cafeteria and cleaning services to assist the residents. I was fortunate to have found street parking as my friend and I went on an early weekday evening. There were just a handful of visitor parking where all of the stalls were occupied but one and luckily my friend snagged the last stall in front. Prior to entering, there's an iPad on the wall where all visitors need to register your information. As you enter the doors of OK, the receptionist confirms your registration and then with the information you entered in the iPad, a sticker is printed and you place it on your chest. This was a first time for the both of us so we asked the staff we were visiting our friend and gave the room number where she immediately blurted my friend's full name. Seems like she's well-known here and have many visitors. It's been over 30 years since OK opened and I was quite impressed they keep up with maintenance as I found OK to be modern and well kept. I noticed the tropical floral arrangements and plants, which gave the facility a bright and welcoming ambiance. My friend's unit was a good size for a one bedroom and it was well kept. The unit was in the midst of re-painting. She mentioned the cleaning services offered, where it's convenient and worthy of the fee but didn't say good things about the food. She's a foodie and loves Chinese food. We used to have potlucks where I was responsible of getting the food and a couple of times I cooked at her place. She's got a refined palate for sure. Overall, a very impressive first visit at OK. The residents who I casually bumped into seemed happy and content, just like my friend who is happy to be living here at OK.

It's really a beautiful building which has many activities for seniors, a pool and jacuzzi, library, salon, and fitness room. Residents own their own condos which is different from other senior living options. We came by to visit a friend and were able to dine with them in the dining room on the first floor. The hostess Fely was a bit rude, but after we checked in everyone else in the main dining room was extremely pleasant and accommodating. Dinner started off with a trip to the salad bar which was super fresh. We then had the soup of the day which was the Manhattan clam chowder followed by your entrée of choice, vegetable, starch, drink and dessert. I had the ribeye steak, French fries and spinach. Dessert was Kona coffee ice cream. The food here is quite good! Several steps up from food typically that would be served at a senior assisted living facility. Essentially like restaurant quality!! Really! I was actually pleasantly surprised.. Definitely a really nice place to live for seniors.

I rarely leave reviews, but my experience with management here--specifically this HEAD…read moresupervisor--was concerning enough to warrant it. There is a clear pattern of inconsistency, favoritism, and lack of accountability. Expectations are not applied evenly, and decisions often appear biased rather than based on performance or professionalism. This creates an environment that feels disorganized and, at times, unfair. More importantly, there is a noticeable gap in leadership. Effective supervisors should provide clear communication, support their staff, and handle concerns with professionalism. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience. Questions are often dismissed, feedback is not handled constructively, and there is little effort to ensure a cohesive or respectful workplace. I strongly encourage upper management to take a closer look at how this department is being run. With the right leadership, this could be a much more productive and positive environment--but as it stands, the supervision is a major issue.

I tried putting them on blast and exposing what is happening who is the dirty workers and why they are not being held accountable.David Abe the administrator is full of shit he might talk nice at first but doesn't hold his workers accountable. If you have family there check their body for sorer's. I shower room smells like urine. If anyone wants to talk kuakini you can call me Jonah Apao at 808-247-2220 any time. The administrator David Abe didn't want me there because I embarrassed him in the front of everyone saying why are so many patients have sorers on their okole from your workers under his watch. These patients who majority is bedridden and can't speak for themselves but I used to make noise for these patients and he couldn't handle me questioning his leadership.

Made an impromptu visit last night and Gooma was happy in the facility. She said that she is well taken cared of by the staff and felt welcomed there. She was well fed and said they mostly gave too much food. You should check out all the antique Japanese dolls and artwork in the place too. Gooma said there are many activities like Poker, keno games, singing , video movies , excercise time and entertainment during the day so she is not bored. Gooma gets escorted bath time to insure her safety. Safety first right? The place looks outdated but the facility is clean. Staff is welcoming and friendly. They post the monthly activities on the hallway board. Yes, would recommend this facility to friends and family.
