Nursing Homes Community in Honolulu, Hawaii

ReviewerAT1023

We did an in-person tour of Hawaii Kai. They showed us a vacant room. Because the pandemic is going on, they couldn't exactly show us the whole inside of like the main building. The guy that we met was very nice, he knew what he was talking about, very professional, and very considerate to my dad. It seemed like a really pretty area, it's pretty clean, and it's fairly quiet. The staff seemed very nice, knowledgeable, they seemed like they had a lot of good resources, like there's a gym that's there with a physical therapist. One thing they were telling me is that if my dad needs physical therapy, that he wouldn't have to travel to go to his treatment. He can get them there if he desires, and so that was kind of cool. They're a little bit expensive and the rooms were kind of small if it's just for one person living there, and they do have options based on how much you're gonna pay. I guess the least expensive room was the kind that we saw, but it was still kind of pricey. There's a nurse on site and if she needs to do care with the patient, there's a seperate fee for her. I feel like it should be included, like for how much you're paying. I think the cheapest room there is like $4,500 a month. I guess I was a little bit put off by the idea that the nurse charges by the hour if she needs to come and do anything.

My tour of Hawaii Kai was very informative, and I saw various residences. It's an excellent community. I would have no problem at all moving my mom in there if she was willing to go. The rooms were very nice. They had nice facilities like a swimming pool. The landscaping was nice. It's a very large facility with large grounds. Because of COVID, I was unable to see their exercise facilities, but they have that.

Hawaii Kai has nursing care provided so my friend is assisted with things for her daily life. It's very lovely. Right now we're on COVID lockdown, so nothing's quite normal. There are no visitors right now. She's very happy there though, and very happy than where she was. So it's working out very well. The staff and everyone has been wonderful. They have a weight room, they have classes, they have a beautiful dining room, a pool, dining room, and a beauty salon. They have everything that the retired community could enjoy. People can have pets, and it's a very nice atmosphere. She's very happy with the food compared to where she was. The food is very good. They're getting served in their rooms because the dining room isn't open. She was paying even more, where she was, and it was terrible.

We were quite impressed with what they have and what they offer at Hawaii Kai. We're on their list and we will be notified if a two-bedroom opens up. The staff was wonderful. We looked at three-bedrooms and two-bedrooms. We looked at all their recreational areas, which include the gym, movie theater, and dining hall. It was a very good tour. There was something going on almost everywhere we went in the activity rooms.

The Plaza at Waikiki is very nice, secure, and well maintained. That was something I never expected out of it, so it's something different compared to other care homes. The lady who was helping us out was very professional. The rooms they showed us were more like apartments with two bedrooms, and the rooms are pretty much all the same. There were activities going on for the residents while I was there.
