Aloha! Welcome to Hale Hāhālua – the gateway to your dream vacation on the Big Island of Hawai’i. Located in the picturesque community of Keauhou (Kailua-Kona), right above Keauhou Bay, our condo offers the perfect starting point for all the adventures the Island has to offer. Relax on the lanai and enjoy the beautiful ocean views and sunsets. With abundant amenities, you will stay in style, only minutes away from the best snorkeling spots, beautiful beaches, and manta ray night snorkeling!

The space
Hale Hāhālua is a bright, fully furnished end unit within a well-established condo complex in a very picturesque, quiet & green, natural setting with beautiful ocean and golf course views.

In Hawaiian, Hāhālua means Manta Ray. Hāhālua are one of the spiritual creatures that represent aumakua (guarding spirits) and symbolize peace, tranquility, and deep calm. Life is constantly pulling us in different directions, demanding our attention. The Hāhālua remind us that staying calm and peaceful will help us navigate whatever life throws our way.

Enter your personal door code at your private entrance to check in, and the door opens into the spacious, open-concept living and dining area. Soft ocean breezes floating in through the louvered windows will greet you with the sweet scent of the Island and keep you nice and cool. There are ceiling fans throughout the condo to amplify the breezes - and the A/C unit in the bedroom makes for cool nights even during peak summer heat.

Your eye will probably be drawn first to the right, where your spacious, 160ft lanai awaits with ample seating, a propane BBQ, and, above all, beautiful open views of the ocean, the golf course, and the tropical garden. Sit down for a minute and take it all in. This is where you are bound to spend most of your time - eating dinners watching the sunset, having a chat with loved ones, BBQing up a storm, or simply relaxing! If you can tear yourself away from the lanai, explore the rest of the condo.

Make yourself at home in the comfy lounge chairs or enjoy ocean views even from the large sofa. Watch cable TV via the Spectrum App on the large Roku TV, or connect to your own Netflix, hulu, etc. account for movie night. Open every drawer in the fully equipped, functional and cozy kitchen, to find every implement you could ever need to prepare the tropical breakfast of your dreams - some mornings you may want a simple papaya with lime (both of which you have bought from the farmers' market at the Keauhou Shopping Center just up the street), while others you may feel like making loco moco from scratch. And for relaxing in the evening after an eventful day, there is a wine cooler in the kitchen island.

Walk down the hall to find the full guest bathroom. Enjoy premium finishes like travertine tile throughout, a detachable shower head, and stone countertop. The hall closet offers mirror doors, for checking yourself out before heading out for a night on the town. Behind those doors you will find some handy equipment, such as pool towels, a drying rack, and also the full-sized washer and dryer. And finally, you will find the spacious bedroom with ensuite bathroom, an A/C unit, and Roku TV. Look forward to some restful sleep and sweet dreams in the comfy King size bed! You will also find various charging outlets here, and ample storage in the dresser and cabinet. Just in case you wanted to pack light, we have equipped the bathrooms with all the basics, such as fluffy towels, make-up washcloths, cotton swabs, shampoo, and soap. Please make yourself at home and enjoy!

The condo is located in a small (48 units), peaceful and close to nature feeling kind of condo complex right next door of the Kona Country Club golf course above Keauhou Bay. Its three acres offer a tropical garden, amazing sunsets, beautifully landscaped grounds, and a shared Outdoor Pool.

Guest access
Guests have access to the entire apartment, amenities, and all common area facilities, which include a pool and tropical garden. No need to worry about where to put the keys - you will receive a unique, easy to remember door code. Please make yourself at home!

Other things to note
This 3rd floor unit has been extensively renovated using quality materials – bamboo wood floors throughout, travertine tile, granite & stone countertops, to name a few. It has also been lovingly decorated with art by local artists. There is a dedicated parking spot (free!) and the condo is fully furnished with luxury amenities such as a King-sized bed, updated A/C in the bedroom, washer and dryer for your convenience, a large, comfy sofa, and a wine cooler along with a fully equipped kitchen – so you can relax and enjoy your vacation. You will also have the ability to barbecue right on your own large, tiled lanai – the perfect spot to chill, relax and unwind after an active day.

Neighborhood highlights

Hale Hāhālua is set in a small (48 units), peaceful and close to nature feeling kind of condo complex that is located right next to the Kona Country Club golf course located above Keauhou Bay (Kailua-Kona). Its three acres offer a tropical garden, amazing sunsets, beautifully landscaped grounds, and a shared Outdoor Pool. Located in the picturesque and central community of Keauhou, your home away from home on the Big Island is the gateway for your dream vacation and all the adventures the Island has to offer.
It is within walking distance of Keauhou Bay with Manta Village, where you can spot the eponymous Hāhālua (which is Hawaiian for “manta ray”) right from the shore or go snorkeling with them at night. Keauhou Bay is also home to the Keauhou Canoe Club. They will take you for a good work-out on the water for a reasonable price. You can also walk down to the Outrigger Kona for a modern-traditional Lu'au. On Wednesday morning, walk down the street to the Keauhou Artisans' Fair and Farmers' Market and shop for souvenirs made by local artists, or indulge in some ono (=yummy) tacos, coffee, or baked goods offered there. The Keauhou shopping center, where you will find grocery stores, galleries, a movie theater, and a huge diversity of shops and restaurants, is close by.
A four-minute drive will take you to Kahalu’u Beach Park for some amazing, easy snorkeling. Take a 15 min drive North to the hustle and bustle of Kailua-Kona, or drive 9 mins South to the historic town of Captain Cook, where you might encounter a pod of friendly dolphins while snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay.
Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park (a.k.a. "Place of Refuge"; a must-see in our opinion) is a beautiful 24 min drive away - be sure to pack our snorkel gear for checking out the famous Two Step afterward! Your two hour drive to Volcanoes National Park will take you past Punalu'u Bakery where you will want to stock up on malasadas and sandwiches for your day trip.
