🏖️Beautiful Oceanfront Condo | Steps from Beach | Small 6-Unit Complex | vrKCV
vrKCV - Hale Pohaku 1, Professionally Managed by Kona Coast Vacations
Welcome to Hale Pohaku – Your Oceanfront Paradise!
Experience the ultimate island getaway at our 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 1,161 sq. ft. condo located at Hale Pohaku. With an expansive 25-foot lanai just steps from the water, this oceanfront retreat offers breathtaking views, incredible sunsets, and the soothing sounds of the waves. Whether you're dining al fresco, watching dolphins and sea turtles, or catching a glimpse of the seasonal whales, your private lanai is the perfect place to relax and take in the beauty of the Kona Coast.
Key Features:
Oceanfront Living: The fully covered lanai, equipped with a Hunter ceiling fan, provides a front-row seat to stunning ocean views, marine life, and spectacular Kona sunsets. The sliding glass doors in the living room open entirely into pockets, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience.
Architectural Excellence: Designed by award-winning Hawaiian architect Vladimir Ossipoff, Hale Pohaku offers a unique Kamaaina-style design with no shared walls, ensuring privacy and excellent cross-ventilation through floor-to-ceiling louvers in every room.
Exclusive Amenities: With only six units sharing the oceanfront pool and covered parking, the complex offers an intimate and private experience. The light saltwater pool is gentler on the skin than traditional chlorine pools, and the surrounding patio and grassy sunbathing area provide plenty of space to relax.
Interior Highlights:
Elegant Design: Featuring granite countertops, custom-crafted Koa wood cabinets, and contemporary bathrooms, this condo combines modern luxury with island charm.
Comfortable Sleeping Arrangements: Both the primary and second bedrooms include custom-crafted California king beds, designed by a local artist with Honu (turtle) carvings.
Fully Stocked Kitchen: High-end appliances and all the essentials for preparing meals with fresh, local ingredients from nearby farmers markets.
Entertainment & Connectivity: The living room includes a 49” full HD TV and an audio system for your enjoyment.
Community & Nearby Attractions:
Beach Access: A small white sand beach is just steps away, accessible via a private seawall gate. The protected wading area, surrounded by lava and a coral reef, is perfect for exploring or sunbathing. Curious sea turtles often visit the shore, making for unforgettable encounters.
Prime Location: Located about 1.5 miles from town, the condo is within walking distance of great restaurants, shops, and the open-air Alii Gardens Marketplace. The Kona-Keauhou trolley stop is just a block away for easy transportation.
Kona Ironman Proximity: Perfect for Ironman fans, Hale Pohaku is right along the race route, allowing you to watch and cheer on athletes as they compete in the final leg of the triathlon.
Additional Information:
Traffic Noise Notice: The condo is located on a busy road, and some traffic noise may be heard from certain parts of the unit.
Rental Policies: Minimum night stay varies seasonally between 4 - 10 nights. This is a no-pets, no-smoking property.
Tax & Permit Information:
TA: 129-406-5664-01
STVR: 19-354043
We look forward to welcoming you to our oceanfront paradise – we hope you love it as much as we do!
