  • Sep 26, 2024 Very easy to work with, no questions went unanswered, very satisfied. Taylor Ferrarie
  • Aug 16, 2024 Beautiful property to relax after a long day. The hottub was everything. Jenny Neal
  • Aug 07, 2024 Loved the private outdoor space Billie Jo Hurley
  • May 19, 2024 This place was perfect for our group! We had 9 adults and there was plenty of space. The location was great and easily walkable to Magic Sands Beach. Catie Becker
  • Apr 20, 2024 We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for our family of 7 adults. The whole house was clean. All of the linens (including provided beach towels) bathrooms & kitchen were spotless. The decor was tasteful and the kitchen was stocked with all the utensils, pots, pans, etc. we needed for cooking & grilling. A clean sponge, coffee filters, a few rolls of paper towels, trash bags, dish detergent & dishwasher and laundry pods were provided. Basic travel sized soap, body wash, shampoo & about 1/2 week worth of tp. The a/c in the bedrooms was nice, but the ceiling fans in every room provided relief from the heat. Forget Magic Sands. We found amazing snorkeling at Kahalu’u Beach Park which was a short drive away. I would not hesitate to refer friends to stay here and would choose it again if we went back to the big island.

  • Apr 15, 2024 Awesome Thank you so much!!!🙏🏻 Hector Franco
  • Feb 15, 2024 We had a lovely stay and everything was as described! Thank you! Jason Nguyen
  • Dec 03, 2023 The accommodations were everything we were hoping for and more. Location was perfect for the surfers in the family and the beach was amazing for the rest of us to watch them. The property was managed well, by a company that took care of us and were quick to respond when we needed them. 🌺🌴 Julee Hall
  • Oct 28, 2023 This home offered plenty of room for us to hang out, both inside and out. The home was clean with comfortable beds, A/C in the bedrooms and nice decor. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook our family meals. We will be back! Jamie Gilman
  • Aug 31, 2023 Second time staying here. This house is amazing. Definitely recommend David Braun
  • Aug 19, 2023 We chose this house because there were nine of us, there were some dietary concerns, and it was also close to the beach. It was exactly what we were expecting from the pictures! The directions were clear, the place was super clean, and the communication was on top of things. With nine of us we were able to have our own beds (well, married couples shared), no one ever had to wait for a bathroom, and between the living area and the patio/lanai there was plenty of space for everyone to relax. The grill was in great shape, which was good because we used it every night. The hot tub was lovely, and the location was PERFECT- easy access to beach and Kona trolley, and at a reasonable price for a house of this size. I did check in with a few miniscule issues that we just wanted to be sure we wouldn’t be charged for, and the hosts responded very promptly. Kitchen and living room got hot, but that was workable. Would absolutely stay here again with this size group!!!! Melissa Hess
  • Aug 10, 2023 Lovely location and house. Would love to visit again! Allegra Coleman
  • Jul 14, 2023 Great location. We were a group of divers and the backyard was well setup to rinse and dry gear. Everyone had space for post dive naps. The kitchen was well appointed and we required the purchase of minimal supplies because detergents were all present. Great rental and I hope to use again in the future. James Blair
  • Jul 01, 2023 This property is in a perfect location. Just a quick walk to the beach and to the trolley that takes you into town where you can shop and find any restaurant/bar. The home is clean and can fit your whole family very comfortable. Highly recommend renting this place for your next family adventure! Jessica Daniels
  • Apr 02, 2023 Our family very much enjoyed our stay at this vacation home! Everything was clean and perfect for our family of nine. We felt very comfortable at this home and were sad to leave this home. If you are looking for a very beautiful and comfy home to stay at in Hawaii you should defiantly stay at this home. - Kerrie Kerre Kolandaivelu
  • Mar 02, 2023 Great location, short walk to the beach, place was as described! Easy and responsive communication! Anne Kroeger
  • Feb 02, 2023 Needed a place in Kona to host a large amount of people comfortably yet affordably - this place was more spacious than we imagined and was a great place to decompress after our Hawaii adventures. Would definitely recommend this place for a large group! Prava Dhulipalla
  • Jan 14, 2023 perfect house for Family close to town! Karen Morris
  • Jan 09, 2023 Great location and really nice home, appreciated the extra beach towels in each room, extra beach supplies, and quick response to any issues we had. Jessica Bowser
  • Dec 21, 2022 Week stay work trip Ample rooms and bathrooms for large party. We enjoyed our stay Pat C

Description

Hale A Kai by Gather or Home by the Sea translated from Hawaiian, is nestled at the end of a quiet neighborhood cul de sac. This recently updated four bedroom, four bath home, is aptly named due to its proximity to the ocean, located just minutes away. The island-inspired decor and bright colors of this accommodation make it the perfect home base the next time you’re visiting the Big Island of Hawai’i.

A large driveway, able to accommodate up to four vehicles, along with pleasing tropical landscaping greets you as you pull up to your Big Island vacation rental. As you step inside, the open-concept living space is vivid and inviting, with colorful island-inspired art pieces hung along the walls. The kitchen contains stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, and ample cabinet space that holds all of the tableware and utensils you need to prepare a proper meal. The window above the kitchen sink provides bursts of sunlight that illuminate the space, and the ceiling fan offers substantial airflow to keep you cool while you’re cooking. Enjoy your meals in the cozy breakfast nook, or spread out at the massive dining room table adjacent to the living room. The bright paint colors add to the beachy ambiance of the living room, with its welcoming furniture and large flatscreen TV. Sliding glass doors bridge the indoor living space with the outdoor patio, with more than enough space to gather for a BBQ and dining al fresco.

The primary bedroom comes complete with a King-size bed, access to a sizable outdoor lanai, as well as its own well-appointed ensuite bathroom with double sinks and a shower/tub combo. The second and third guest bedrooms both have plush King-size beds, as well as their own private ensuite bathrooms. The fourth bedroom is perfect for kids, containing two Twin-size beds with a bathroom nearby. All of the bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning with 4-hour timers and ceiling fans, ensuring your comfort on those balmy island nights.

Hale A Kai is stocked with beach gear for snorkeling, bodyboarding, and relaxing on the beach, including a beach cart with wheels to make carrying all of your things to the nearby beach effortless. When you return to your accommodation after a fun day in the sun, clean-up is made easy when you rinse off in the lanai’s outdoor shower, and throw your swimsuits and towels into the washer/dryer in the garage. Spend the evening sprawled in front of the TV, or use the home’s free WiFi to send the day’s best photos to friends and family back home.

Hale A Kai’s ideal location on Kailua-Kona’s bustling Ali’i Drive means that you’re close to dining, shopping, and people watching, but far enough away from the action to appreciate the serenity of this residential area. When you’re ready to explore, walk down Ali’i Drive to lounge on Magic Sands Beach, a mere five-minute walk from Hale A Kai. Then turn around and make your way up Ali’i Drive, where you have the opportunity to search out cultural wonders like Moku’aikaua Church, the first Christian Church in the state, or Hulihe’e Palace, where royalty once resided.

When renting this accommodation, please adhere to the following Hawai’i County restrictions:
Quiet hours shall be from 9:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m., during which time the noise from the rental shall not unreasonably disturb adjacent neighbors
