The lots in Hawaiian Beaches are too small. You can hear your neighbors snoring. I would suggest HPP where the lots are an acre.
The one-acre lots in HPP are long and narrow. Unless houses are at staggered distance from the road, you are cheek-by-jowl with your neighbors. When my neighbor on one side lights a cigarette, I can smell the smoke in my living room, and when the neighbor on the other side fires up their ATV, my house fills with exhaust. I can clearly hear conversations from either side (especially shouting into cell phones), and music, and vacuums, and catchment pumps, kids playing, dogs barking etc., etc. It kind of reminds me of the old days in the trailer park. I'm sure they can hear me equally as well, and I'm a night person so most of my "noise" occurs midnight and after. None of us complain, it's just the way things are, but if you're looking for privacy, HPP is not the place. Aloha!
I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.
