About this property

Experience a Hawaiian getaway like no other in this private, ocean-view retreat located in the prestigious, gated Keauhou Estates community. Just minutes from the beach, restaurants, shopping, and a variety of island activities, this three-bedroom, two-bath home away from home features split air conditioning, high-speed wireless internet, cable television, and a washer and dryer for total guest comfort and convenience.

A spectacular mahogany double-door entry invites you into Maile Hale's single-level, open-concept floor plan. The primary and guest bedrooms are situated on opposite sides of the home to maximize privacy. The spacious primary bedroom boasts two sets of sliding doors leading to two lanais, a large walk-in closet, and an en suite bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower, and double vanity.

Maile Hale's sprawling common areas include a kitchen with solid granite counters, Maytag double ovens, and a Maytag French-door refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and microwave. Lovely ocean views greet you from the dining area for six and the expansive living space with a large television and welcoming seating. The openness of the space allows the whole group to enjoy vacation time together, and the huge glass doors create a true indoor-outdoor living experience, opening to a covered lanai.

Have a relaxing open-air meal in the shade of the lanai after preparing your food on the barbecue grill. Lounge in the sun or play on the lush lawn. The property also features a young banana tree and a mature papaya tree.

Guests of this Kona home on the Big Island's popular west coast enjoy easy access to Kahaluu Beach Park and White Sands Beach Park.

The home was so clean and well organized. We are big cooks and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook in and enjoy meals on the front porch with the most breath taking sunsets. We will definitely stay here again. We walked through the neighborhood each day and it was quiet and peaceful. Thank you for an incredible stay!!!

Lovely house with good views

We had a great time sitting on the front patio overlooking the ocean drinking our coffee in the morning. It was very easy to get around the island from the house. Big rooms, nice and clean. Just be aware that this is a bit up the hill from the water. Not really walking distance. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic home for a family vacation

We were a family of 6, with 4 adult children. The home was spacious and ideally suited for our group. The location is fantastic with beautiful ocean views and easy access to groceries and the beach. The home is well appointed and has everything you will need for a great vacation. Recommend very highly!

Best of Kona

Great location, convenient to the Keahou Shopping Center ( less than 5 min. away) where there are restaurants, grocery stores, and drug stores among other shops. Nice and quiet neighborhood and very safe feeling. A wild turkey visited every morning. Beautiful view and accommodations. Would return to this one again.

Our Corporate Trainer loved this location! It was originally booked for our CEO as well, but he wasn't able to join our Trainer on this visit. The feedback was great and I will book this location for them again in the future, as they make the trip out to Kona, 4 times a year. Thanks for the ease in booking and communication. Great location to stay!

Perfect Kona Base Camp

This house is in a beautiful neighborhood and has an excellent sunset view. The house is very comfortable open floor plate with large windows. We found all of the kitchen items to be very handy and perfect for cooking local foods. You can explore the whole island with a relativley short drive from here to beaches, coffee farms, volcanos, downtown Kona,.....

Lovely vacation

This property was exactly as described. The view was spectacular! The gift bag upon arrival was a nice touch. And the extras - like aloe for our sunburns - were thought out and appreciated. We were 2 couples and 2 kids, and everyone had ample room to spread out and relax. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location was very close to the snorkeling we wanted to do - and only about fifteen minutes from the restaurants we wanted to try. We truly had a lovely stay and a wonderful vacation.

Great place for the family with incredible views!

This beautiful home was large enough for six people to have their own space, but also has a great open concept in the dining/ living area to hang out together for meals and games at the end of the day. The lanai (deck) had the most amazing view of the ocean and was the perfect setting to take in the sunsets. The home was clean, beautifully furnished and had everything we needed for our stay. Great location, close to Keauhou Bay- with grocery store, drug store, Tropics Tap House and Kenichi (a most if you like sushi). It also a short drive to Kona or Captain Cook and the historical coast. Lots of great snorkelling and swimming close by. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Keauhou Big Island Vacation

Maile Hale is a wonderful property with a spectacular view of the Kona Coast from the gated community in the hills above the coast. The house is located in a beautiful neighborhood with properties that feel secluded due to the size of the lots and the lovely Hawaiian foliage surrounding the home. The property management company left us a nice welcome basket with some tasty snacks to get us started. The home is very comfortable with all of the modern amenities needed to enjoy a relaxing vacation. Two bedrooms are adjacent to one of the bathrooms on one end of the home, with the master bedroom/master bath on the opposite end. The master bedroom has a large hd-tv, as does the main living area. The two other bedrooms have smaller tv's in each. The property is ideally situated 10-15 minutes to Kailua-Kona town with many shopping and restaurant options, and also 10-15 minutes from other dining options further south. There is a shopping center just 5 minutes away with a KTA grocery store that has everything you need. The drive from the Kona airport is approximately 25 minutes (traffic dependent). Unlike other locations on the Kona Coast, the tradewinds are relatively calm here, which was nice. There were some minor issues which we relayed to the property management team to make the stay for the next guests even better (the remote for the ceiling fan/light in the kitchen wasn't working, toilet paper holder in master bath is loose and coming out of the drywall, and the shower curtain in the main bathroom's shower/tub is not very effective in keeping water from splashing outside the tub). Please don't take these as criticisms - just observations. Maile-Hale is a wonderful property in a spectacular location. This was our first trip to the Big Island, and our week in paradise was absolutely memorable! Family of 4 from Northern California (Dad/mom and 2 adult children)

Quiet stay

We've stayed @ several VRBO homes through the years. This home was very clean & nicely decorated. We did have some inconveniences--no extra towels or toilet paper in Master Bath. In the manual, it's stated once you run out, you're required to get your own replacement. Never had that stated nor problem @ any other house; most had extra supplies in a closet/pantry. VERY limited kitchen "extras"--ie: no sugar for coffee. There were a few spices in the cabinet. No cooler or ziplock bags for day trips to pack up food so we wouldn't have to buy more. This would have been nice. (We've always had a cooler, plastic wrap, foil, ziplocks in other VRBO stays). Being our 1st time to the BI, we didn't realize how much time we'd be on the road w/limited food options. In the manual it's requested to start a "White Load" before checking out. All the towels were white but we didn't use enough to start a white load. We did a bedding/sheets load. Upon opening the washer after it was done, there was flecks of soap or something ALL over the fabrics. Not sure what that was...On trash collection day, we didn't put the recycling bin on the curb. As my husband was sitting out on the lanai, some lady walked up & proceeded to roll the recycling bin to the curb. My hubby told her: "There's only ONE empty plastic bottle in the bin. I didn't think it was practical to put the recycling bin on the curb to be emptied because it would be wasteful to have the plastic liner dumped out (along w/the one bottle). So the lady put the recycle bin back on the driveway. Perhaps it was a neighbor trying to help out or maybe the owner lives close by in another residence, but we did inform the property company of that scenario & the issue with the washer. We did have issues working the TV in the Master bedroom. With all the cable options listed, the directions didn't coincide with the remote. Watch out for the extended wood bed frame in the MB! Both my hubby & I hit our shins on it since it sticks out underneath the bedspread.

素晴らしい施設でしたが

素敵なお部屋で景観もとても素晴らしく、大きなキッチンでゆったりと食事。落ちてゆく夕日を眺めながら、守られたエリア内で、とても静かに優雅なひと時を過ごしました。しかし、その後、入浴関係が恐ろしく酷かった。水量は制限があり、我々日本人は、湯船にゆったりと浸る習慣があります。ジャグジーはあるが形だけ。お湯はすぐに水になるし、シャワーの湯圧が恐ろしく悪い。1日の疲れが全くとれない。それだけで台無しな宿でした。
