Experience

Kahaluʻu Bay is just a 2-minute stroll from your front door—perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and soaking up the sun. Just a mile down the road, you'll find White Sands Beach Park, a local favorite.
Head five minutes south to the Sheraton for spa treatments, oceanfront dining, and an unforgettable luau at sunset. For a truly magical experience, catch the graceful dance of manta rays from Rays on the Bay.

Area

Kona/Keauhou

The sunny Kona Coast is renowned for its crystal-clear waters and rich Hawaiian history. Visit cherished landmarks like Hulihe'e Palace, Moku'aikaua Church, and Ahu'ena Heiau—just 8 miles south of the Kona International Airport.
Kona is a world-class destination for deep-sea fishing, home to the annual International Billfish Tournament in August and the legendary IRONMAN World Championship in October. The cooler upland slopes are famous for producing the region's celebrated Kona coffee.
From snorkeling, scuba diving, and paddling to spotting spinner dolphins and sea turtles along the shore, daily adventures abound. Or simply relax with a cocktail or meal along Ali'i Drive as boats glide by.
At the southern end of Kailua-Kona, Keauhou Bay—birthplace of King Kamehameha III—is known for its calm waters, ideal for swimming, kayaking, and snorkeling. It's also a prime spot for manta ray encounters and ocean excursions.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful beach house. We spent a lot of time on the back covered porch enjoying the ocean and watching all the surfers, swimmers and boats. The house was conveniently located to lots of activities but far enough away that it was very peaceful.

Sunrise to sunset this home is spectacular! Going to bed and waking up that close to the ocean was a dream. It's close to the road, but the ocean is louder than any passing cars. The walk to the nearby beach park couldn't have been easier. And the KITCHEN, wow, the best stocked kitchen we've ever had. A truly special place.

Fantastic Oceanfront

We absolutely loved this home. Unreal location - feels like the ocean is all yours. Super convenient to stores, restaurants, etc., but also a great launching spot for off-grid adventures. It is right on Ali'i Drive, as others have noted, and at times you will hear traffic; but the wall provides decent privacy and most of the time any road noise is canceled out by the sounds of the surf. Management was awesome to deal with. Really a great spot and we will happily return.

Amazing Property in Great Location

We could not have asked for a better property to visit during our stay on the Big Island. The deck is even better than the photos! Amazing sunsets, calming sound of the ocean, and a warm breeze all the time. The kitchen was well stocked, shower had amazing water pressure, and the bed is comfortable. The location is great to visit the entire island, close to restaurants and the airport while feeling like you are on a private island once in the house. They even had beach chairs and towels to use, which was so convenient. I’d return to the Big Island again for the sole reason to stay at this home again!
