About this property

Beauty and Luxury Meets Oceanfront Paradise

Welcome to our exceptional oceanfront property, a luxurious home in one of Kona's most exclusive neighborhoods off Kailua-Kona’s scenic Ali’i Drive. With stunning views of Holualoa Bay and breathtaking ocean sunsets, this architectural marvel seamlessly blends luxury with nature's wonders. The single-level property features a main house and three guest units, all crafted from exquisite local Ohia wood, centered around a spacious deck that showcases the natural beauty of the Hawaiian coast.

The open-concept living area merges indoor and outdoor spaces, offering unobstructed ocean views. Each guest unit provides private accommodations, ensuring a tranquil stay. Located just 1/4 mile from the beautiful Magic Sands Beach and a mile from downtown Kona's shops and restaurants, the home is also near Keauhou Shopping Center.

Boasting high ceilings, a gourmet kitchen, and a spacious patio with a pool and hot spa jacuzzi just 40 feet from the ocean, the home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests. The master bedroom features a king-size bed, a walk-in closet, a spacious shower, and a soaking tub. Three additional suites offer the same style and luxury, complete with Ohia wood accents and private bathrooms.

Enjoy ocean views where you can often spot schools of Spinner dolphins and Humpback whales breaching (November-March). Sunrise and sunset bring a picturesque scene as local outrigger paddlers glide by. The sunsets are breathtaking, and the night sky offers mesmerizing stargazing.

We provide everything you may need for the beach. Additional amenities include a washer/dryer and board games. The outdoor patio is perfect for family gatherings, with a large dining table, lounges, and a BBQ grill.

Stunningly Beautiful
The setting is perfect and the property is truly beautiful. Host/Owner was very gracious, outfitting the property with everything the family needed for the beach, Yoga and relaxing in the sun. Household staff were available quickly to help with uncertainties about how to operate some appliances. The layout is pure Hawaii, with four separate sleeping quarters, a beautiful and functional open air common area and natural wood embellishments.

Paradise
This was our second stay at this gorgeous property and we will definitely be back again - it truly reflects the Aloha spirit in every way. The energy and beauty of every facet of this home is beyond compare: location, views, privacy, nature, luxury accommodations and amenities, well stocked, comfortable beds, exquisite and thoughtful architecture, wonderful pool and spa, excellent for whale and dolphin watching, amazing sunsets and star gazing. The owner and property manager are very responsive and are immediately available for any questions or support. We could not recommend Hale Ohia and Yarden's exquisite sanctuary and home more highly.

Wow!! Family&work family Spring break
The property is beautiful. It is easily the best VRBO I have EVER stayed in. The location is super convenient to beaches, shopping and the airport, but it is such a special property you might never want to leave it. You’ll enjoy falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, enjoy panoramic views and tide pools at the surf’s edge. Property Manager was responsive, and accommodating during our stay. Bottom line is that…. This property easily surpassed our expectations! If you get an opportunity to stay here you SHOULD!

Wonderful holiday in a beautiful home
Our family had a wonderful holiday at this beautiful property. The home is beautiful with lots of space and a unique design with great use of local wood and materials. It feels very warm and welcoming. Each of the bedrooms have their own ensuite bathrooms with showers/tubs. The main bedroom and bath were enormous. The view is amazing and the pool was great for cooling off from the heat. The kitchen was very well stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware. We really made good use of the rice cooker! We also appreciated all the extras that were provided (salt, pepper, sugar, oil, spices) Thank you so much for the arrival goodie basket! We especially appreciated the location being so close to one of the checkpoints for the Ironman race. We were able to just walk to the road and cheer on the competitors and then go back home to cool off in the pool! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Our family enjoyed our stay.

Stunning Place in Big Island
One of the most beautiful properties we’ve stayed in. The house is located right in front of the ocean and has a pool that goes with the view. The kitchen is well stocked if you plan on staying in for dinner. Both manager and owners are very welcoming and easy to communicate with. Would love to visit again!

When we walked into the house it was so breathtaking that I actually cried! The pictures do not do it justice. Yarden and Shellese were amazing communicators. Thank you for sharing this amazing home!

Beyond gorgeous
Everything was beautiful and clean. The property is beyond gorgeous, very close to the water with only a windbreak of trees in front of you. Everything was a plus. Only a few caveats: The pool is very cold (in Feb.) and there is no hot tub, even though it looks like there is. First day there were about 4 different workers on or near the property, so it was not at all relaxing. Seems like there should be a discount if there are multiple workers blowing leaves, cutting trees, and mowing the lawn while you are on your vacation as the owner is using your time to do their maintenance. But it only happened one day during our 10-day stay. Everything else was fantastic. Magic Beach cafe is only a 15-min walk south, but you need to make a reservation and they can be flaky, canceling our reservation at the last minute because something happened in the kitchen (probably Covid as they never specified; these are tough times). There is a take-away window open 8-3 which is very useful. Magic Beach is beautiful, but if the waves are too big, the lifeguards prevent you from swimming (understandably). This house is an oasis to which one feels happy to return. It appears to sleep 8, but must only have a permit for 6 as that is how many it sleeps. However the extra bedroom did facilitate a clean room for new guests. The master suite is fantastic. The shower is unbelievable: green, veined rock on three sides, and it is so big it does not require a door. Hot water was in short supply. Two showers or a shower and a load of wash and you’d have to wait for more hot water. The house is 15 minutes from Gertrude’s Jazz Bar, which I highly recommend. We saw Johnny Ness on vocals and guitar with the amazing Michaeloha playing trumpet. House pluses: two refrigerators, three boogie boards, fins, snorkels, booties, crushed ice from the inside fridge, drinking water faucet, HUGE master bedroom—know that the master bedroom closet connects to the laundry room. LOCK THIS DOOR if you don’t want people coming into your closet. (It was unlocked when we came. It is also a good second way to enter if someone is having a video conference in the bedroom and you need to use the bathroom.) There is a guest toilet just north of the laundry room. The TV worked great. Every guest room has a TV and air conditioning and a nice bathroom. We would definitely come again. Hoping for a jacuzzi! Rumor has it that a house is coming next door north. Don’t know timing. Manager communication was great.

We LOVED our stay. The open concept of the property with the wind and breaking waves was worth every penny. Our son is in a wheelchair, and the house was fully accessible; this accessibility made our trip even more enjoyable. We would love to return!

5 star location & layout - but not the amenities & upkeep
The pictures of oceanside + inside/outside living totally deliver in real life. The spot is amazing and the property is stunning. But for the very high price you pay, the amenities and quality of experience is mediocre. The kitchen is not well equipped and some basic supplies were missing on our first night of cooking. No cooking oil, no saran wrap, no kitchen towels, etc. Minor things, but at this nightly rate I shouldn't have to drive to the store for the basics. Some burners on the stove were not working, the hot water in the kitchen was out and the lights over the lanai / terrace had a problem. Given it has been a while since the house and amenities were updated, and we had multiple issues affecting our stay, it seems the house is not kept up to match the price they are charging. While both the owner and house manager were attentive and the manager came to the house multiple times to resolve issues, they shouldn’t have needed to. We stay in many high-end and middle-of-the-road home shares and our takeaway was this place is beautiful and in a phenomenal location, but felt cheap in other ways.

Amazing Kona Family Vacation
As soon as you step through the entry gate you are immediately relaxed by the open air walkway leading to the gorgeous ocean view and sound of crashing waves. The set up of this house is incredible for families or a small group looking to enjoy time together but also have some private space. The location is super convenient and close to town, great restaurants like Magic’s, beaches and grocery stores. We are a very active family, out during the day diving, fishing or exploring. But starting with Morning coffee by the pool/ocean, then coming home to this gorgeous home never got old. We mixed up going out to dinner and also eating at the house….you have the best view right there, no need to leave! We even had a photographer come to take some family pics because the house, scenery, plantings and sunset on the ocean were so special. Shellese is a wonderful property manager and was on top of every question about Kona or the house that we had. And the property owner, Yarden, was fantastic from before I booked the house, during and after. Nothing but compliments for the process all around. My only regret it…we should have stayed longer. This is a very special house. If you are considering booking it….don’t hesitate. We will be back! Kona has a ton to offer if you’re an active family. We used Dave at Kona Concierge. He helped book multiple scuba dives (one night dive with manta rays), fishing, surfing, luau, Mauna Kea….highly recommend reaching out to him before you go. He made my life a lot easier and fun!

About the host

Hosted by Yarden Dankner

Host profile image
I love hosting and sharing with guests, the very special experiance Hale Ohia Kai offers; beauty and peace.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the property as soon as I walked in.
Many things make this place one of the most exquisite, awsome homes I have had the privlage of living in.
The location of my home, right on the beach, offers a constant contact with the ocean, a view of the Pacific. The ability to sit still and be emmersed in the beauty that is Hawaii
watching the spinner dolphines as they swim by, or during the whale season watch the breaching and spraying of those magnificent beings.
private and yet close to everythiing Kailua Kona has to offer.
And then there is the architectecture and all the thought that went into building this home.

What makes this property unique

Built on 17 Ohia pillars the house is on one level, the main house as well as the three guests rooms open to a patio giving each bedroom its own intimate privacy with access to the common areas.
The large pocket sliding glass doors, when open, create one large open space connecting patio, living area and pool/ocean side.
Simple, organic luxury.
