The place to be in East Honolulu, HI is the Wai'alae County Club. Most residents of the city spend their free time at this vacation hot spot. This popular country club received the honor of being ranked in America's top 100 Country Clubs. It lines the beach and has both an aquatic and fitness center. Whether you are looking to get fit, lay out on the beach to catch a tan, or wine and dine, it is all possible at the chic Wai'alae Country Club.

East Honolulu is a great place to live because there are plenty of employment opportunities no matter what your area of expertise.

Many parents would like a place where they have great job security, bountiful education for their children and do not need to worry about the safety of their family and you will find all of that in East Honolulu, Hawaii.
