Atlantis Resort Hawaii

Local source tells me that the chapel is now gone and fences have been removed. The land is now clear.

The design for the Hawaii resort has been decided upon during the past month but details of this remain under wraps.

Completion has been pushed back to 2021

One of the apartments overlooking the construction is for sale and its recent marketing video seems to show the building currently occupying the site is coming down very quickly. Does anyone have any better images of the site?

New film of the deconstruction and area to be built on.

Also interesting update on the deconstruction of the building next to the wedding chapel. They are making good progress on this: http://www.bizjournals.com/pacific/news/2017/04/05/re-use-hawaii-partners-with-resort-group-in-ko.html

Yes, they should be able to develop all of the land on that parcel and would have to comply with setbacks that exist for those areas. Based on what the other resorts have done they will likely have pools, restaurants and amenities in the beachfront areas with accommodations set back a little and oriented in a way to maximize the ocean views. If anyone comes across any other renderings or plans for this project, or for the proposed project on the parcel between Beach Villas at Ko'Olina (lagoon 2) and the Marriott Ko'Olina Beach Club (lagoon 3) please share as well. We are trying to figure out if Atlantis would start construction first or if the project on the other parcel I just mentioned. I have not seen any soil testing done yet on the "Atlantis" parcel, but soil testing has been completed on the other one. Aloha!

My question would be will they be able to develop on the little sunset point there between the lagoons? If so, that is pretty awesome. I can see a couple sweet restaurants and bars there between the 2 lagoons.

Great drone video over the whole resort which gives a good feel for how it will sit in the area.

Still destruction rather than construction but there's clearly something happening on that land. You can see that the land is very brown over the grass areas and looks very different to the well-kept areas around it.

Atlantis Ko Olina, a luxury resort featuring approximately 800 guest rooms and 524 residences, has been officially announced for the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

offerings include attractions like Aquaventure Waterpark, The Lost Chambers Aquarium and an open-air marine habitat.

There will also be plenty of dining options, with Atlantis offering everything from casual lounges and bars to high-end restaurants. The resort also promises notable chefs

So I visited the site yesterday and whilst construction hasn't started there are fences up because they are pulling down the wedding chapel that currently stands on the site.

Cranes are already at work removing this structure and land is being left unkempt in the area where construction is due to begin soon. This is going to be right next to Disney's Aulani with views over the Honu lagoon next to Disney's which it will share with time share apartments and villas to its south side.

This is the location close up marked in red is the land shown on the other photos including the current buildings.





The wedding chapel barried off from the lagoon side


Cranes on site and a gate left open.





The extent of the land that is being left ready for construction with Disney Aulani in the background. It's a big plot.
The grass here is in bad condition compared to the extremely well groomed areas nearby which makes me think it won't be long until they have work starting.
