We've been living in Ho'opili since 2017 and were so excited when Konane Park opened. It's been…read moresuch a great addition to our community! There's always a nice mix of people from all over the island who come to visit--many even call it the "Fruit Park" or "Apple Park." For us, it's extra special because it's right across the street from our home, making it so convenient to enjoy. The park is well maintained weekly through our community fees, and the trees here are amazing--the ulu provides food, and the puakenikeni blossoms are perfect for making lei. We've even been able to spread a few lauhala seeds, adding to the natural beauty. Konane Park is truly a gathering place that reflects the spirit of Ho'opili.

It's a…read morenice large field for the kids to run around, not quite a mile even all the way around though. There isn't a parking lot, but there's lots of street parking all the way around (lower street or upper street and it loops). There is a public bathroom on the upper side of the field closest to the town houses. Even though I haven't really visited this park much, I don't really care for it's unleveled field. We don't normally play at parks on mountains so I'm sure that can't really be helped. I would just prefer my kids playing on a flat field, seems safer.

Dude, soccer and bubbles! What kid doesn't like these things. That's why we love this park. It's…read moreright up the road from us and it's large enough for multiple activities to take place at once. This park is highly used for sports whether it be baseball or soccer. That's also the downside. We like to blow big bubbles and kick the soccer ball around for fitness with the kiddo. I usually work into the late afternoon so the evening is our preferred time to get out for air. We have to pick our days wisely because most days they have soccer practice and games that take up the whole park. I'm hoping there's a schedule somewhere on the MTA website that can give us better guidance on which parks have practice on what days so we can easily enjoy one instead of bouncing around looking for an open field before the sun sets.

This is exactly what happened to me! As we turned the corner bend, "Whoaaaaa this park is spacious and the playground is colorful"! Need to say both me and my son was super excited to check it out! 1) This is Park has its own lot. No need to worry about Parking on the street like most. There are ample parking. 2) Restroom is not your typical Park Restroom! From the outside is a small building on the right side of the playground. The Women's Restroom is very clean inside with 2 stalls (1 small / 1 large) and the best part it has *Baby Changing Station*, *Seat Covers* & *Soap Dispenser*! If you need to bring your baby in a stroller, no need to worry about getting the wheels dirty and wet. 3) Can't say enough how the colors really brightens the mood and has my son excited to play! It's safe for ages 3+ and with a fun challenge in the middle to get their mind stimulated. 4) Here's a fun twist, on the left side there's a Fitness Equipment Area. It's super convenient to incorporate a quick workout while your keiki play at the playground (of course, if they're old enough to play without assistance). Either way, there's playing space for both parents and keiki! 5) If you're an Ohana with a Family Dog, there's also a fenced off Doggy Area to the far left! I haven't been inside, but from the outside it looks quite roomy for the doggies to run around. 6) Alongside with the great variety of choices, there's a large field of grass! Perfect space to have practices, large groups to workout, let the keiki run around loose, and even kite flying! As large as this park is, you may want to bring an umbrella or baby tent for shade as there's not really anywhere to relax other than a tree in the back or near the restrooms. Upside, there's 3 tables if you want to kau kau as well! Hoalauna Community Park hits all the aspects you'd want for everyone! Let me tell you, it's a "ONE STOP SHOP"!

What more can you ask for in a community park?…read more Hoalauna provides something for everyone in your family, no matter their age! Your fur babies, too! 2 dog parks, multiple exercise equipments, playground for your little ones, picnic tables for you parents and kupuna's, an entire 30+ space parking lot, CLEAN restrooms; need I say more? There is also a ginormous grassy area that can be great to let your little ones one freely without getting too close to the road. One downside to the park; there isn't much shade. Aside from the minimal tree shade, and the shade from the umbrella partially covering the playground, there's not much to work with. Fixable by bringing your own umbrella (: We love this park! Mahalo to the previous yelper who mentioned that they allow parties here (with a permit). I'll definitely be looking into that for future events!

To tell you the truth I have not stepped foot on the park premises only checked out the park from a distance. Majority of the time I would be with my grandfather as he picks up his lady friend that lives in the senior citizen apartments. I did take notice that the Pilila'au Park has a small playground, a section for the skateboarders or roller skaters, a basketball court, and a area for peewee football or baseball practices. The times that I have been near the park I really have not seen many people at the park. Maybe I'm there at the wrong time of day. I wonder if the children and parents of Waianae still frequent this park? I do know there is a bus stop for residence to wait and ride the shuttle bus.

I've noticed that over the years, this park has gotten busier with lots of families coming to watch their kids practice and play sports, thus making it less scary at night.

As a pet owner, it provides a nice walk; a long sidewalk along the street and lots of trees and grassy space to run and play. There are two large trash cans, so I implore you - bring POOP bags and dispose of them properly! If you're not a pet owner, there's still lots of things you'll enjoy: plenty of street parking, large shady trees, breezes, watching teams of kids playing soccer or football, families eating lunch on their beach mats or playing a little badminton. I know it sounds a little Norman Rockwell-ish, but it really is a nice park. What you won't enjoy it a RESTROOM, and that's the only reason it doesn't get 5-stars. Note of interest: on 04/11/11 this park, formerly Waikele Neighborhood Park, was re-named Mitsuo "Mits" Shito Neighborhood Park.

You can find street parking, and the park is literally seconds away from the road. You could probably bring pets as well when at the park. Not to much people visit this little park, but it's ok my children have fun playing by themselves. As for the grass around it, i think maybe the maintenance people could clean it a little more often, but over all it's a cool place to go and just hang out with your kids for a hour or so.
