About this property

Spectacular Ocean View, Peace, Beauty, And Relaxation two to five guests

We invite you to explore Peaceful Hale, where abundant quiet and serenity, incredible views, sunsets and night skies with rolling hills and lots of open space await you at our end-of-the-road location. Nestled in the Kohala hills at 700' elevation, we enjoy bountiful sunshine (well over 300 days of sun a year) and perpetual, cooling breezes. This is a sturdily built southwestern design three bedroom house, with large wrap around lanai and all the amenities to make you feel very much at home, including a very well stocked kitchen and Weber BBQ for those who enjoy cooking, as well as indoor or outdoor showers with tubs for star-lit evening soaks. Spectacular view from every room. Experience a very unique, rural feel while being only minutes away from world class beaches, excellent snorkeling, diving, surfing, hiking, along with numerous and varied restaurants and the most popular big island resorts.

Relaxing Retreat

My wife and I had a wonderful relaxing time at this beautifully maintained home. We love the gardens, the view of the ocean, and proximity to many wonderful beaches on the Kohala Coast. Kalia is a wonderfully responsive host and she is available while being sensitive to our privacy. Mahalo Kalia for another wonderful stay!

Magical Stay

To say we loved our stay at Kalia’s place is an understatement! House is beautiful, peaceful, well appointed with everything needed, beautiful views, and feels very private. All of us enjoyed our stay . The beds were comfortable. We had plenty of room to relax, and enjoy the beautiful beach nearby. You will not be disappointed!

Even better then the pictures...

My mother-in-law, adult niece and I were fortunate enough to stay at this beautiful home for a week. Believe all the positive reviews. I could go on about the home, the gardens, outdoor showers, stars at night..the list is long. We spent the majority of our time on the lanai drinking in the expansive views. Went to Hapuna Beach for early morning swim just about every day. Hawi town and great hiking up north. Went to Waimea for private lei making experience. Had an awesome burger and award winning IPA at the Brewhaus. Learn about the culture at Historical park and site nearby. Really, I could go on and on. Communication with the owner was great. I would not change a thing..maybe one thing...shoulda' stayed longer! Aloha!

Peaceful and Beautiful

Tucked away on a hillside with absolutely gorgeous landscaping and view. The very large lanai was a welcome place for afternoon cocktails, watching the changing sky into evening and enjoying the soft breeze. Mornings, also gorgeous, we woke to the sounds of birds inviting us to the lanai for coffee and papayas. Another highlight was the outdoor shower in the secluded back yard, also beautifully landscaped. The bed was super comfortable and the house well equipped. Probably perfect for families too but so nice to have whole house to ourselves. Would love to return. If you go you won’t be disappointed.

Perfect stay in paradise

This was our favorite home we’ve ever rented. The property was beautiful and peaceful with an amazing view of the ocean. Loved the outdoor shower and looking up at the stars. The home was very well stocked with cookware and anything else we needed to prepare meals. The grill was clean and worked well. In our 2 week stay we only went out to eat twice because we enjoyed cooking/grilling so much while eating on the outside patio. The owner was so helpful and nearby but respectful of our privacy. She even set us up on a sailboat snorkel cruise. We will definitely be back and are so grateful to have spent time in this gorgeous home on this gorgeous property.

Beyond Expectations in North Kohala

We're a small family of three (two adults, one 9yo) on a first time visit to any Hawaiian island. The big island and Kalia's house in N. Kohala turned out to be amazing strokes of luck. The 2BR house was fantastic and well stocked with beach and kitchen items. Kalia and her daughter were wonderfully warm and helpful, better hosts couldn't be asked for. We rented their car for the duration, highly recommended for reaching the amazing places around the island both close and far. Our stay was late Aug, early Sept which also worked well. Lot's of activities to join but fewer crowds and nice weather.

Amazing stay in paradise

The home itself is a wonderful destination in its own right. The spectacular gardens competed with the stunning long view of the ocean and mountains. The host, Kalia, has anticipated any and all needs in outfitting the house. I can't find enough praise to share about this property that is truly a paradise.

Exceptional!

I don't usually give five-star reviews, but this was the nicest rental we've ever stayed in. The house and gardens are stunning. The lanai was a wonderful place to spend time soaking in the gorgeous view, lovely flowers, chirping birds, and cooling breeze, perfect for sharing a meal or to read and relax. The kitchen was large, modern, and well-furnished. There was a wonderful flow to the house. The bathrooms were gorgeous. The outdoor showers were a delightful way to start the day. The house has snorkel equipment and boogie boards to borrow, which we greatly appreciated. There was plenty of room for two adults and two teens. It was peaceful and tranquil and beautiful. A perfect retreat! Don't hesitate! This place is heaven!

Sunny Bit of Paradise

My wife and I spent the week at Peaceful Hale owned and hosted by a special lady named Kalia. We have stayed here before and decided we would like to come back. Just as we expected, our experience was flawless and relaxing. The property is immaculate and the landscaping is amazing. We have stayed in about twenty properties in Hawaii and this is one of our favorites. Jim & Brenda Camden SC

Peaceful retreat!

We loved our stay! The beautiful tropical gardens surrounding the house are masterfully cultivated to give guests both privacy and gorgeous vistas of the ocean and coastline. The sunsets from the lanai should not be missed. The property is very clean, well stocked, and easy to get to. We appreciated the variety of beach and snorkel gear we could borrow. We will definitely be referring friends until we can return for another stay.

Dreamy

This must be the most beautiful rental we’ve ever stayed at. The views are spectacular from sun-up through stargazing at night. The lānai is perfectly set up to be outside with comfy lounge chairs, table and chairs, and a hammock. Landscaping is just stunning. Inside is also very comfortable for gathering and sleeping. The outdoor showers are so fun - just have to make sure you’re aware of the reverse temp controls. The owner does a great job respecting the land with soap products and composting. We lacked for nothing. I would very much enjoy coming back!

Wonderful, Peaceful Hale

This is the second time we have stayed on Kalia's property which, in itself speaks volumes. The first time was in her smaller unit down the hill from the one we stayed out this time. This unit, the Peaceful Hale was just perfect for the two of us, although it would easily accommodate four. The house if beautifully furnished and restful. It is surrounded by fabulous gardens that screen all sides (except the magnificent ocean views) and the delicious fragrance of flowers drifted through the rooms. There was almost always a slight breeze to enjoy on the lanai, and the house itself was comfortable even after being closed up for most of a day. There were three tower fans for any times it was a little warm. The Hale is down a long driveway, far away from other neighbors. Its very safe because of the isolation. Not a dog barking was heard. Birds gently awakened us in the cool mornings. The kitchen was not huge, but it lacked for nothing in terms of cooking appliances and utensils. We enjoyed the master bedroom/bath outdoor shower every day of our stay - it was heavenly. Nearby Spencer Beach State Park was one of our favorite places to hang out, people watch, enjoy the beach and watch for whales. It was also fun watching the surfers and boogie boarders at nearby Kawaihae Harbor - also a great place for a picnic. For snorkelers, the Mahukona Beach Park, 10 miles away, provides a great, protected water entry point. And all the snorkel (and other beach) gear you would ever need is available in the Peaceful Hale garage. Kalia is a great host who is very pleasant and attentive. We would highly recommend the Peaceful Hale for couples and families. You won't want to leave.

A nice stay

My husband and I stayed three nights at this beautiful property in September. The nights were pretty warm but we were still able to sleep with the fans on and windows open. We were able to hear the people at the other rental property down the driveway a few times but it wasn't too bothersome. It was nice to be off the beaten path and the stars at night were lovely. Overall a nice stay.

Secret Paradise in the hills of Kohala

This property is so magical, we couldn't believe we had found such an amazing property to spend two weeks on the island. We loved waking up to the sounds of all the birds who live in the gardens, the view is incredible, and you truly feel off the grid here... but with all the amenities. When you decide to pull yourself away from the Lani you are only a short drive to all of the best northern Kohala beaches. The house has all the beach equipment you will need: chairs, umbrellas, snorkeling gear, cooler bags, and sand toys. After a sunny day at the beaches or hiking around, Peaceful Hale is a comfortable place to come home to. The trade winds along with the ceiling fans eliminate the need for A/C. We used the outdoor showers everyday and my son loved the outdoor tub to splash around in. The kitchen is very well equipped and as a chef I really enjoyed having nice cookware and sharp knives! The beds are in great shape with high quality mattresses. We kept the house pretty open using the screen doors which invited the nighttime breeze in for a very comfortable sleep. Our son loved the geckos and exploring the grounds. Even cracked open a coconut from the tree for a little treat! Kalia is a gracious and kind host, she was very helpful and we loved our little run ins with her. We can't wait to come back!

It was too easy to get used to waking up in the morning to breathtaking vistas of the pacific, drinking Kona coffee while surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. Kalia was the perfect hostess, giving us tips on things to do and making sure we had everything we needed. She also has a stocked supply of boogie boards, beach chairs and snorkeling equipment: so no need to rent if you’re staying here. Truly amazing hideaway in paradise!

A Truly Wonderful Property.

As with all the VRBO's we've used we were slightly apprehensive before we arrived. Would this property live up to its description and photos? Well yes it did, and much more. This is the perfect place for anyone who would like to enjoy Hawaii without the big resort bustle or even that of typical neighborhoods. The property is distant from neighbors, really an oasis, yet convenient to the entire west coast of the island, as well as trips across the island. The house was very clean and comfortable for two couples and truly had everything we needed. But I think the highlights are the privacy, the beautiful landscape and the incredible view down the coast from every room and the lanai. Our host, Kalia, is gracious and very helpful with any questions yet seemed to be invisible until you needed her. She is very fortunate to have this property and we all are very fortunate that she shares it. We definitely hope to return.

Peaceful and Beautiful

If you like the Kohala beaches (snorkeling lovers should), but don't much care for the large, glitzy, and fairly crowded Kohala coast resorts, and are looking for a great view, the absence of human-generated noise, nearly total privacy, and a lovely, spacious, and nicely decorated accommodation with a beautiful garden. you almost certainly will love this place. The area is bone dry but the house's landscaping is verdant; there is no A/C but the setting a couple thousand feet or so above sea level makes A/C unnecessary; there is only one indoor shower but there are two attractive outdoor showers with plenty of hot water and good water pressure (as well as a couple fillable outdoor tubs); and the house is not on the water but at least five or so great snorkeling beaches with live coral and fairly abundant sea life are only a 10-15 minute drive away. Plus, the house can easily accomodate two couples (there are two spacious and attractive bedrooms, both with nice views), the kitchen is very well-equipped, the interior lighting and wall art is attractive, and owner Kalia has furnished the place with a nice selection of tourist information, games, and beach equipment and toys. All this for a very reasonable price, especially by Hawaii standards.

About the host

Hosted by Kalia Naia

I have been living on this beautiful island for 25 years after living in the Trinity mountains of Northern California for 25 years. I feel very blessed to live here and to have experienced the mountains also. I have had my other vacation rental for 13 years and love the business for many reasons.
I feel grateful and proud to be able to offer this beautiful home for your home away from home.

Why they chose this property

After living in the mountains of the NW I was wanting warm winters. I was pleasantly surprised to find this area with the temperature staying between the mid 60s and high 80's year around along with the "friendly" ocean environment. Feels like heaven!

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this property for the incredible views, end of road location, spacious feel, and perfect climate. I built the home with forms that then get concrete poured in to make very thick concrete walls. It has proven to be a perfect way to build for this area.
