About this property

Luxurious Oceanfront Escape Awaits – Stunning Views & Top-Floor Waikoloa Living!

Aloha and welcome to the idyllic gated community of Hali'i Kai! We're thrilled to introduce you to our exquisite, 180-degree oceanfront condo, where luxury meets affordability, and offers all the indulges, beauty, and relaxation that the Big Island has to offer.

Location: The unit is an top-level unit, with the largest floor plan available in the gated community. The private community includes access to tennis courts, a sport court, a scenic pool, a sand-bottom jacuzzi, and a fully-equipped open air gym. In addition to being oceanfront, Building 15 is an end unit within the complex, ensuring the peace and quiet necessary for relaxation and rejuvenation. The double-lanais provide magnificent sunset views, along with once-in-a-lifetime whale watching opportunities. The salty, Pacific breeze rustling through the palm trees, coupled with the ocean splashing against the lava rocks provide a tranquil background for your evening on the deck, with your Mai Tai, watching the sun dip into the ocean. Just steps away from the two award-winning golf courses and the private Hali’i Kai Ocean Club, the condo is located in a convenient, yet secluded location.

Interior: Our home was decorated to ensure that guests feel immersed in the true Hawaiian spirit. With beautiful mahogany and bamboo lining the interior, the condo truly provides a feeling of indulgence. Oil paintings by local artists decorate the walls, and the furnishings echo the Hawaiian culture.

The spacious first floor ushers you in with a warm, Big Island “Aloha!” The kitchen includes granite counter-tops and top-notch stainless steel appliances with all the essential kitchen tools and supplies. In addition to bar-top seating, the dining room includes a large table to comfortably accommodate six. The living room area includes a plush couch, two recliners, and a large flat screen TV, complete with cable. Off the living room is a lanai that offers comfortable chairs and a table to dine at. On this same floor is our laundry room that is fully-stocked with all of your washing and drying essentials and supplies. The front bedroom includes a Heavenly comfortable Queen bed. The ground-floor bathroom, with a full bath/shower and granite counter tops, is also fully-stocked with island toiletries for all of your pampering needs.

The second level of the house has 2 bedrooms. The "Volcano Room" (so called because it has a view of 4 of the 5 volcanos on our island) is furnished with a queen-sized bed, a large dresser and closet for your storing needs.. A Tempur-Pedic mattress and pillows, rich linens, and an overhead fan help provide you with all of the comfort you could imagine. The upstairs bathroom also includes granite countertops and a high-powered shower to feel fully cleansed after a day at the beach.
The master bedroom is truly a sight to behold. The Tempur-Pedic king bed opens up to the top floor lanai, which puts a whole new meaning to the phrase, “rise and shine”. During whale watching season, you can lie in bed and hear the whales calling to one another, while watching them breach and splash in the azure waters. With plenty of storage for clothes, a flat-screen TV, and a full master bathroom with dual sinks, a jacuzzi bath and full shower, the master bedroom is the quintessential definition of the lap of luxury.

As added amenities, the condo also includes free high-speed WiFi, hairdryers, bath and beach towels, beach chairs to help make your experience complete.
Amenities: Our home is located feet away from the Ocean Club, Hali’i Kai’s private oceanfront clubhouse. The clubhouse includes a picturesque, multi-leveled lagoon style pool, with sweeping views of the Pacific. Plenty of lounge chairs and aqua loungers line the pool deck, and the concierge desk offers towels and ice cold lemon water to make your lounging experience relaxing and enjoyable. The pool area also includes a sand-bottom Jacuzzi, well-maintained restroom facilities, an outdoor showering area, outdoor BBQs, and an undercover sitting area providing the ideal atmosphere for enjoying a good book. The Ocean Club also serves up lunch and dinner at the Ocean Bar and Grill. The friendly bartenders provide excellent service (try the ahi poke and the lava flow) and are also a wealth of knowledge, providing insider perspective on restaurants and activities on the island. If you crave a sweat session to start the day off on the right foot, the open air, newly-renovated gym cannot be matched. Treadmills, elliptical machines, and exercise bikes, along with a full rack of free weights provide an excellent workout, while taking in the serene ocean views. Whether your intention is to sip on a tropical drink poolside, or play with the family in the rejuvenating, saltwater pool, the Ocean Club is the perfect place to spend your vacation. The grounds also include tennis courts and a sport court, for those who crave a bit more action.

The Area: Hali’I Kai is an oceanfront gated community located on the Kohala Coast. This unique residential area is just 18 miles away from the Kona airport and is easily accessible off the main highway. Nestled within the Waikoloa Beach Resort area is this ideal spot for either a romantic vacation with your significant other or a memorable family trip. With Mauna Kea looming in the background and the breathtaking Pacific Ocean out the front window, the location is both unique and welcoming. Directly outside the Ocean Club, the “Trail by the Sea” will take you on a leisurely stroll to the Hilton Waikoloa, where you can enjoy a number of amenities and restaurants. Continuing on the trail, you will eventually come to Anaeho’omalu Bay, where you can spend the afternoon playing on the beach or snorkeling in the warm waters. Just minutes down the highway is the gorgeous Hapuna Beach, offering another opportunity to splash around in the clear ocean.
The Waikoloa Beach Resort also has a number of delicious restaurants that serve up fresh cuisine and island inspired bites to delight your taste buds. For the golf fans, the resort area has two 18-hole golf courses, that include pristine views of the Pacific. The King’s Shops and Queen’s Marketplace provide plenty of shopping opportunities, whether you desire a new bathing suit or an authentic Hawaiian ukulele. Island Gourmet Market, located within the Queen’s Marketplace, will satisfy all of your grocery needs while on the island.

In actuality, you could potentially spend your entire vacation within the Waikoloa Beach Resort vicinity, and have all of your wants and needs satisfied. Although, if you desire some action and adventure, we highly recommend you take the time to see all that the beautiful Big Island has to offer.

We are fully committed to making your experience a positive one, and we take great pride in ensuring that you and your loved ones have a memorable vacation that you can cherish for years to come. We are excited to share our lovely home with you and hope that you will come back and stay with us again. Mahalo!

This fee is assessed on a per group basis. Once paid, you will get your key cards to access all facilities on the property. This fee is per group and not per person.

Incredible location and accommodations!
The listing almost correctly describes this property. I just doesn't go far enough. The location is ideal and the unit was close to the pool/clubhouse facility. The unit itself was spotless and plenty of space for our party of 3 adult couples.Views from the lanai's were amazing with incredible sunsets each day. Easy drive into Kona with plenty of shopping/dining close by.I would recommend this property without hesitation!

Home away from home
The Mavis' home felt welcoming and completely comfortable for our family getaway. There was ample communal and outdoor space, incredible view, well-stocked kitchen and the perfect 3 bedroom/bath configuration for parents and two adult kids and one GF. Easy access to the beautiful oceanside trail allowed us to stroll to the Black Sand Beach (1/2 mile) and A' Bay (1.5 miles). Sitting up a bit higher on the 2nd/3rd floor gives a great view of migrating whales--what a treat! Communication, access and parking were spot on and easy. The home is obviously well cared for and was very clean. It was the perfect homebase for all our adventures. Would definitely return!

So lovely!
We had probably the best family vacation during the holiday season. The accommodations were perfect for us. It was nice to walk 3 min to the pool and beach club. It gave us flexibility to enjoy the view with a little one and not have to get her in the car seat all days and avoid long walks.Can’t say enough about the rental. Lanai in master bedroom perfect for whale watching. Area is great too and you’re close to great shops and amazing beaches. Hiking trail along the coast is right there at your door and also amazing.Host was incredibly responsive. Loved it. Will be back!

We had an amazing stay at this VRBO. The property was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and all the amenities we could ask for. It was incredibly clean, well-furnished, and perfectly located near beautiful beaches and local attractions. The hosts were fantastic-super responsive, welcoming, and full of great local tips that made our trip even more special. This place truly exceeded our expectations, providing the perfect mix of luxury and authenticity. We couldn't have asked for a better Hawaiian getaway. Highly recommend!.

1st Time on the Big Island
We were pleasantly surprised with our first visit to the Big Island, and our accommodations played a big part of our amazing experience. This was the first time we used a VRBO property (we typically stay in hotels) and it did not disappoint! The condo was so spacious and cozy. My family of 5 was very comfortable. Being able to stay together, cook meals together and enjoy each other's company, was worth it all! The condo is beautiful, and the amenities were on point. The view from the back balconies was simply breath taking! I would highly recommend this property and will be booking it again in the future!

Maintenance due
Obviously, the location is magnificent and the condo was well supplied. The cleanliness/maintenance definitely needed improvement. The main bedroom sheets were stained with what looked like blood so we washed them twice and the stains diminished but still remained. I recommend new sheets. The toilet paper holder in the second bedroom upstairs was missing the spring inside so the toilet paper went flying. The holder was useless. The hot water handle fell into my hands but all it needed was to be screwed back on. Any finally, the stairs are in bad need of cleaning. It's an amazing unit and we spent most of our time on the upper lanai watching whales. Being retired CPAs, this was the first time we were able to enjoy Hawaii during tax season and hopefully will be able to do so again.
