The glass-clad Aeo high-rise in Honolulu takes in city and water views.
Hawaii Life
For second-home buyers seeking a cushy spot to land in Honolulu, a designer-done perch in the sky could be just the ticket.
Turn the key, drop the bags and head to the building’s rooftop terrace, resort-style swimming pool or the fitness center. Need to stock the fridge? There’s a Whole Foods just downstairs.
The gleaming glass-clad high-rise called Ae’o is in Ward Village, a pedestrian friendly neighborhood of 60 acres set along the ocean between Waikiki’s white sand beachfront and downtown Honolulu.
Two walls of windows meet in a corner of the open-plan living room.

Also ideally suited for a no-maintenance primary residence, the three-bedroom luxury condominium takes in ocean and city vistas from every window.
But it’s not just the views that provide an eyeful. The turnkey unit is a designer showplace that includes all the furnishings, accessories and fine art – even the linens.
The canvas of interior designer Holly Boling Ruiz of Philpotts Interiors, the unit was envisioned as a “dynamic, forward thinking and kinetic” space.
