The Plaza at Moanalua sits behind Kaiser Hospital and offers different levels of care with Independent Living, Assisted Living, Hali'a Memory Care, Short-Term Respite, and Lamakū Extended Care available, so people can choose what fits best for their needs. The modern building has large windows for natural light, high ceilings, beige and green touches, with comfortable apartments in various styles like studios, one-bedrooms, and semi-private sharing options, all with nurse call systems and easy access bathrooms that include walk-in showers, grab bars, and adjustable benches. Pets are welcome here, with some rules for dogs' sizes, and pet therapy is available, which makes it nice for people who want to keep their furry companions close. Residents get three restaurant-style meals every day in the dining area, with room service if needed, plus a bistro for coffee and snacks, and a spacious on-site theater for movies and events, with a special theater just for memory care that comes with a popcorn machine. Housekeeping and linen services happen weekly, and other chores like laundry and special diets can be arranged as an extra, while scheduled transportation with the Plaza Shuttle takes people on errands, appointments, and outings, so folks can always get where they need to go. The Plaza at Moanalua has daily activities, exercise programs, contests, and life-story events, sometimes honoring veterans or supporting causes like the Walk to End Alzheimer's, and staff who speak Japanese, Korean, and Chinese can help residents in different languages. Personalized care plans and 24-hour nursing support add peace of mind, and the Plaza Life Protocol guides care overall, while the Hali'a memory care program and the Best Friends® approach focus on dignity and understanding each person's history. People can use indoor and outdoor spaces like a media/theater room, recreation and game rooms, billiards, computer stations, reading areas, a well-equipped beauty salon, and a fitness and physical therapy center. Residents can park on site, and their rent covers most utilities, so there aren't many extra costs. The community runs on a month-to-month lease, so there's some flexibility, and safety features like fire-rated doors, alarms, and sprinklers come built into the apartments. Staff are available day and night, offering support, meals, and access to programs that aim to help everyone live with comfort and dignity, and the setting feels warm with landscaped green spaces, an inviting lobby, and areas set aside for quiet or social time, whatever people prefer.

Beautiful facility with excellent amenities
I toured several places and chose this beautiful, well-kept facility - modern, condo-style rooms (spacious studios/two-beds), lovely grounds and walking areas. The staff, including Director of Nursing Heddy Cortes, are kind, patient and accommodating with prompt maintenance/housekeeping, 24-hour checks, shuttle/concierge, therapy and medical visits, and a VA partnership that can help reduce costs. The food is restaurant-style and healthy, dining is pleasant, and activities are nonstop (exercise classes, mahjong, bingo, outings, performances) so residents stay social and busy. It's convenient and a great value if you can afford it, though it's on the pricey side and I've heard some variability in nursing quality across floors.
