The master suite includes a luxurious California king bed, while two additional rooms are furnished with queen beds. The downstairs bedroom is equipped with a cozy double bed. For extra sleeping arrangements, there’s a built-in daybed in the family room, plus a separate ohana unit above the garage featuring another California king bed, ensuring ample space for your family and friends.

Here, laughter and love have filled the walls with memories, and now it's your turn to create unforgettable experiences. Just a friendly heads-up: “Mika,” a beloved neighborhood cat, might greet you during your stay!

Located right on the shoreline with breathtaking views of Kona Village, Hale Kai Olu features its own private beach complete with relaxing hammocks and a saltwater pool.

If you're a fan of farmer's markets, visit the local market every Wednesday or explore the three Saturday markets in Waimea for the finest offerings on the Big Island.

Your Hawaiian adventure awaits with countless activities to choose from, including snorkeling, hiking, horseback riding, and exploring stunning beaches and waterfalls. After a day filled with excitement, return to your personal paradise at Hale Kai Olu to unwind and recharge for another day of exploration.

Summary: The house was clean and in great condition. The location is private, close to the Keiki pond and has stunning views of the ocean as well as Kona. All in all very good value. One note, the pool is very deep, 6/7’, and does not have a section that’s shallow. We had toddlers and young kids so we had to be hyper vigilant around the pool. Also the hot tub is only heated for three hours out of the day, from 6-9pm. There is no access to the controller.
