  • Jan 19, 2025 We absolutely enjoyed our VRBO. The property was perfect for our stay. It was within walking distance of downtown, beautiful sunsets, whale watching and a perfect walk everyday to the beach. Marcie Kuhl
  • Dec 13, 2024 Outstanding property Chris Myers
  • Nov 16, 2024 This place was outstanding! It looked just like the pictures, was very peaceful, had a great view of the ocean and a lovely private pool and hot tub. My family enjoyed viewing the tide pools directly in front of the house and visiting the lagoon which was just a short jaunt down the shoreline. We had such an amazing time on the Big Island ❤️ Thank you! Jessica Montague

  • May 27, 2024 This house was great! The location is unbeatable. Easy to access from the airport and town of Kona. The community is nice, and feels safe. The walk to the lagoon/beach is easy, and very kid-friendly. Our kids loved the pool, we enjoyed the patio while watching the waves and dolphins! The house had everything we needed, and management was easy to communicate with. If we ever get a chance to make it back to The Big Island, we will plan to stay here again! Lisa Biondolillo
  • May 01, 2024 Beautiful views and very close to great restaurants, shopping, grocery stores, etc. Lovely! Amy Ozuna
  • Apr 05, 2024 We have stayed in many Kona Bay properties and this house has one of the best locations. Wonderful to be able to open the house up for the ocean breeze and sound of the waves. Large house with plenty of open space. Pool was nice. Very much enjoyed our stay. Tim Campbell
  • May 14, 2023 Nothing short of amazing! The location, the house were unmatched. The whole house opened up so there was a constant breeze rolling through. The pool, hot-tub were in great condition. The views were astonishing. The place lived up to every expectation. Amazing, Amazing stay. We will certainly be back! Jeremy Moreland
  • Mar 12, 2023 House was in a beautiful oceanfront location with beautiful lava rock shoreline and a small beach area nearby. Near downtown Kailua Kona and plenty of restaurants, etc. Rules about AC/wearing shoes may seem unreasonable but weren't difficult, left sandals at door. Living area was best left open. Management was very responsive when WiFi not functional, etc. Would definitely recommend. Scott Fleischauer
  • Mar 03, 2023 Beautiful, relaxing and fun Amy Anderson

Description

This luxury, 2-story oceanfront estate on Big Island boasts one of the best locations on the entire Kona coast. With 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, expansive living areas, and unique amenities for up to 10 guests, you’ll truly be able to claim the island adventure of a lifetime here at Blue Water by Gather. This Big Island vacation rental resides in the exclusive Kona Bay Estates with proximity to Kona village, where you’ll find extensive fine dining, shopping, and Hawaiian activities to fill your vacation days with cherished memories. In addition to your private pool, there’s a swimming lagoon and beautiful white sand beach within the Kona Bay Estates gated community. This lagoon is one of the few places on the Kona Coast which is usable all year round, due to its shallow warm water.

When you first enter the property, you’ll be greeted by the large, wrap-around driveway and Hawaiian Poi Pounder fountain. Blue Water has numerous decorative touches and features inspired by the unique history of the island, which offers its guests a glimpse into its special past. The main living area has numerous doors that welcome the outdoor sounds and scents of the tropical flora, along with all the cooling tradewinds. The living room and kitchen area are spacious and ideal for entertaining guests, with a large curved granite bar, Koa media center, and dining area for all your guests. With the doors wide open throughout the day, your living area seems to expand right to the dazzling Pacific.

From your outdoor lanai, you can take in breathtaking sunsets each night from your lounge chairs or beautiful pool and spa area. Blue Water sits on over half an acre of tropical landscaping, with recent upgrades made to the property to ensure the most unique vacation home experience. The owner also recently added AC in all the bedrooms, updated many of the furnishings, and invested in new sliding doors to ensure the open-air feeling of the main floor living area is easy to access. Most guests have the doors open to take advantage of the ocean breezes, therefore the AC thermostat is preset to shut off at 10:30 am and 2:30 pm during the day. It operates continuously at night, with a minimum temperature of 74 degrees to ensure maximum comfort for you and your guests.

The primary bedroom suite is privately situated on the second level with incredible ocean views. It features a King-size canopy bed, private lanai, etched glass walk-in shower, jetted tub, and large walk-in closet. There’s a separate media lounge area within the primary suite, which provides additional sleeping accommodations.

Leading from the media room, there’s a set of spiral stairs that leads to an observation room with Twin-size beds. The observation room has 360-degree windows for mesmerizing views of the ocean and mountains. If you have older children, this would be the perfect space for them to hang out. The other 2 suites reside on the first and second levels, with a King-size bed and a Queen-size canopy bed and private bath within the rooms respectively.

As part of your reservation, you’ll have exclusive access to concierge services. Some of the service options include daily maid service, airport pick-up, lei greeting, private whale watching and snorkeling tours, and private chefs.
You will be so delighted with this home that you'll want to come back year after year!
