Captain Cook House | AS SEEN ON HGTV BEACH HUNTERS! Oceanfront, Amazing Whale Watching and Snorkeling

Experience Koni Kai: AS SEEN ON HGTV BEACH HUNTERS! Oceanfront, Amazing Whale Watching and Snorkeling

Welcome to Koni Kai, translated from Hawaiian as "Passionate Sea." This exquisitely designed oceanfront retreat offers a serene escape, where every detail has been thoughtfully curated for your comfort and enjoyment.

Nestled on an ancient lava flow along the picturesque South Kona coast in Milolii, the oldest fishing village in Hawaii, Koni Kai is perfect for those seeking tranquility over nightlife. While you may not find bustling entertainment here, you'll discover a luxurious sanctuary that encourages relaxation and rejuvenation.

Situated just 30 miles south of Kailua-Kona and an hour’s drive from Volcano National Park, Koni Kai serves as an ideal home base. Spend your days lounging on the expansive 1000 square foot sundeck or exploring unique black and green sand beaches. Venture into the lush rainforests near Hilo or hike the volcano to uncover ancient petroglyphs while witnessing active red lava flow into the ocean. Whatever your choice of adventure, you'll return to some of the world’s most breathtaking sunsets against a dramatically rugged backdrop.

During the winter months (from November through March), enjoy spectacular views of migrating Humpback whales and playful spinner dolphins right from your sundeck. You might even spot a friendly green sea turtle making an appearance. The area directly in front of Koni Kai boasts some of the best snorkeling, diving, and fishing opportunities, courtesy of the coral reef that lines the north side of the bay.

While we hope you embrace the peaceful surroundings by disconnecting from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we understand that you may need to stay connected at times. That's why Koni Kai includes complimentary Wi-Fi and high-definition satellite television for your convenience. A state-of-the-art water filtration system, featuring UV light purification, ensures quality drinking water throughout your stay.

The gourmet kitchen is equipped with a Wolf gas range, Kenmore oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, and all the essential small appliances to make meal preparation a pleasure. Additionally, a dedicated laundry area is outfitted with a new Whirlpool Duet hi-efficiency washer and dryer.

Koni Kai awaits your arrival, welcoming you with true Aloha spirit, both now and for all your future visits to Hawaii. Do not hesitate to reach out with any questions; we are eager to ensure your stay is both enjoyable and memorable.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay. We did experience some electrical issues which caused the hot water and the tv in the guest room to stop working a few times. We notified the manager and it was addressed immediately. The first 2 days out of 7 we did not have hot water off and on but by the end of day 2, the electrician had fixed the problem. After that we had no issues and the manager made sure to check up on us a couple of days later. The house was just as described and in a very quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed the ocean views and the sound of the waves while we slept.
