Hawaii The New "It" Spot for Lux Condos

Hawaii has always been known as a little piece of paradise and now it seems that the real estate market is booming there like never before, especially for buyers looking for second and third homes. Condos are especially popular because they can be as roomy and luxurious as a house, but take much less maintenance. Condos also often have luxurious amenities that stand-alone houses are not able to offer. Spectacular views from 20 and 30 stories high and easy beach access are among the obvious benefits, but new buildings like the Trump Waikiki Tower will include a wine cellar, lobby bar, cafe, fitness center, spa, concierge service, 24-hour room service and valet service, all of which will be available to both condo owners and hotel guests alike. These luxury condos are selling for up to $6 million, with demand expected to grow over the coming months as new developments are added.
