Authentic Hawaiian luxury meets modern-day sophistication at this recently renovated Kona retreat, just 10 minutes from the beach and airport. The home was thoughtfully designed with both comfort and elegance in mind, blending natural materials like teak, mahogany, and travertine with modern designer finishes. Backlit quartz counters, Restoration Hardware furnishings, and high-end appliances set the stage for a stay that feels both indulgent and relaxed.
What makes this property truly unique is the way it combines luxury with an authentic island experience. At 1,500 feet elevation, the climate stays comfortably cool while offering panoramic views of the coastline and some of the most stunning sunsets in Kona. The living room embraces open-air island design — its screened windows don’t close, allowing the Hawaiian breeze to flow through and connect you directly with the beauty of nature. Whether you’re relaxing in the freestanding Japanese soaking tub, rinsing off in the expansive travertine walk-in shower, or simply lounging with the evening trade winds, every space has been created to invite relaxation.
Entertainment is at the heart of this home, too. Movie lovers can gather for a private cinema experience on the 100-inch projector, while those who enjoy a great drink will appreciate the custom wet bar with petrified wood counters — perfect for mixing a craft cocktail after a day at the beach.
Every detail of this property was chosen to create an environment that feels special:
- Expansive ocean and sunset views from multiple areas of the home
- Indoor/outdoor living that connects you with the natural beauty of Hawaii
- A unique blend of modern design and island-inspired materials
- Open-air living room designed to welcome the trade winds
- Carefully curated furnishings and finishes that create both comfort and sophistication
It’s also worth noting: this home has character. While it is elegant, stylish, and thoughtfully designed, it’s not “perfect” in the cookie-cutter sense. Guests may notice little quirks or imperfections that come with a unique property — but that ’s part of its charm. We believe these details add to the home’s funky, one-of-a-kind personality and make the experience more authentic.
Please note: there are other rentals on the property. Each is fully separate and private, but you may see other guests around the grounds or in the shared game room. We encourage everyone to bring a little aloha spirit — say hello, share a smile, or swap a travel story. Guests often find that these chance encounters add to the warmth and community of the stay.
This isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a home that reflects a love for design, hospitality, and the spirit of Hawaii. From the quiet Palisades neighborhood to the custom interior touches, every element is here to help guests feel connected, inspired, and cared for during their time in Kona.
