Compared to other neighborhoods, Royal Kunia is more spread out and has better long-term planning of streets, especially the major ones. Compared to other communities in Oahu, the streets in Royal Kunia are wider. They also have sidewalks everywhere. Thus, this makes it a perfect place for jogging or walking.
When you visit this place, you’ll definitely notice that the whole area is very clean and neat. Aside from that, you’ll also find that there are open spaces between the houses. Royal Kunia is just right above the Ewa Plain, but the place has far fewer houses. Because of this, traffic is not an issue here. Further more, there is also an off-ramp from H-1, which makes Royal Kunia accessible to everyone.
For home buyers who like newer properties with open floor plans, Royal Kunia is definitely for them. Most of Royal Kunia’s model houses have an island kitchen that opens to the living room. This design gives the houses a modern and open feel to it. Castle and Cooke, the developer, also made available a variety of colors and models to choose from. This avoided a cookie-cutter type of neighborhood.
Royal Kunia houses can be as large as 2800 sq. ft with 5 bedrooms, while the smaller starter houses are about 1300 sq ft. The prices of Royal Kunia houses range from $500k to about $900k. The $900K houses are the largest models with available views of the ocean. Indeed, there are houses with ocean views because the area is elevated above the Ewa Plain. There are several houses in Royal Kunia that definitely have a nice ocean and Diamond Head views from multiple rooms.
Schofield Army Base
There are two options to get to Schofield. One way is the back road that begins in Royal Kunia. Using this way, takes about 25 minutes for commuters to reach the back gate.

Beaches
If you want to go swimming or just sun bathe and get tan, you either drive to Ewa beach or Ko Olina. From there, you can check out the beautiful beaches available. In Ko Olina, there are shark pool and restaurants available for your pleasure.
Schools
One thing that is absent in Royal Kunia is its own school. However, the community and the developer are already lobbying for a second phase of Royal Kunia, which will be big enough for its own school. The second phase plan is still a work in progress. Also part of the plan is to include a community center. If everything goes well, it is believed that the developments should begin this 2010.
