About this property

Grand Oceanfront Gated Estate on the Hamakua Coast.

Experience the magic of this breathtaking oceanfront gated estate. Watch dolphins, whales, and cruise ships sail by. Feel the cooling Tradewinds where they first reach the Hawaiian Islands on your skin.

Located in the heart of the Hamakua Coast, this is more than a place to stay, it's a lifetime experience not to be missed!

Consisting of two spacious bedroom suits, each have astonishing ocean views by day and wide open star lit skies to lull you to sleep by night.....
Welcome to The Cliffs at Hakalau.

As you enter the estate though our private gate, an impressive mature tropical garden will surround you like a soft blanket. It's hard to believe this tranquil jungle like land also fronts a spectacular oceanfront cliff house and Ohana where you can literally feel the thunder of the ocean beneath your feet. Listening to tropical bird songs by day, and coqui "jungle" sounds at night under star lit skies will melt away your cares.

Upon entering the front door, you will see a vaulted great room and huge east facing windows looking out over the breathtaking ocean. The sunrises here are among some of the best you have ever seen.

The "Hamakua" bedroom features a King bed and the "Hilo" Bedroom a Cal-King bed, each boasting private baths. The bathroom of the Hamakua room has been completely renovated with a new double walk in shower, an extra large, luxurious Jacuzzi tub with full ocean view, new cabinets, sinks and counter. If you prefer, you can step outside the "Hamakua" Bath and shower outside. The shower outside is the best in the house. It's a must do while staying at The Cliffs. Both bedrooms have astonishing ocean views and each has their own lanai for privacy and comfort. For overflow guests, there is a futon sofa bed in the living room.

With sleeping accommodations for up to 6 guests, this estate provides excellent value.

Need even more room? This property also features a 2 bedroom Ohana we call "The Treehouse." Perched high up and close to the green belt and trees, this space can accommodate up to 4 more guests. Message us for availability and information.

Like to cook? Our kitchen is outfitted for you to have everything you need when making your favorite dish or maybe you will try your hand at preparing "local kine" foods after visiting one of the many farmers markets near by.

Part of our design philosophy is to bring families and groups together to relax, enjoy and "talk story". The living room has lots of comfortable seating areas including a sectional sofa, coffee table, several arm chairs with side tables, a telescope, and a futon. You won't find a big screen living room TV, nor playstation, or anything else to distract you from experiencing Hawaii and this magical private oasis...

The home also features its own website. You can web search "The Cliffs at Hakalau" and there you will find loads of information about the Cliffs at Hakalau, videos, and information about the what to do and see island wide. You can also post and "Talk Story", share your experience......

This listing is for the main home as described in the description and shown in the photos. The detached Ohana next to the main home is also used as a vacation rental. Outdoor spaces are shared. We are happy to answer any questions you may have.

From the moment you arrive, we will completely respect your privacy. We are available to you 24/7. Our landscape team usually works on Wednesdays but may need to adjust timing for weather.

We have a 5 star rating and aim to earn your 5 star review. We have many repeat guests that reserve year after year and want the Cliffs at Hakalau to be your favorite destination when you are visiting Hawaii. We are available to you 24/7 and are happy to answer any questions you may have. Please feel fee to reach out to us with any questions! Mahalo!!

Stunning

We had an incredible stay at this vacation house! The property was simply amazing, with breathtaking views off the cliff just beyond the backyard. We were lucky enough to spot whales and dolphins on several occasions, adding to the magic of our stay. The house and yard were impeccably maintained, and we had a fantastic time enjoying all the amenities. It was the perfect getaway, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend this gem of a place for anyone looking for a memorable and relaxing vacation!
