Enjoy watching the whales breach and the turtles play in the waves during the day. At night, let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep in this beautiful private home located in Pahoa. This custom two-story oceanfront, east-side of Hawaii, home is so close to the gorgeous Pacific Ocean you’ll feel like you are on a cruise ship. This 2800+ SF house has 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths and 180 degrees of unobstructed views where you can watch colorful sunrises and marine life like whales, dolphins, and turtles play in the ocean. Have an enjoyable Hawaiian vacation where you can listen to the waves and feel the ocean breezes. The home is located near the most eastern tip of the Big Island and due to tradewinds and sea breezes is almost always free of VOG (volcanic Haze) that affects the air quality in other parts of the island.

Our home has been lovingly prepared and will make even the most discriminating traveler happy. This home offers peace and relaxation in a dramatic setting with panoramic views of the ocean. Listen to the songs of myna birds at sunrise and sunset. Refresh yourself in the pool or go on a leisurely stroll in the nearby forest.

Located in a friendly neighborhood, and near a park, this location is great for taking walks, jogs, or bike rides. Or just kick back and relax on the lounge chairs and enjoy the sun and ocean breezes. Conveniently located just 10 minutes from the town of Pahoa which has many stores and restaurants to chose from. Just down the road is Isaac Hale beach Park & Pohoiki Black Sand Beach (swimming/surf spot), the Kaunana Lava Tubes, Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Farm, Boiling Pots, Shipman Beach and Uncle Roberts. Also close by is the Hawaii Volcano National Park.

We are located 30 minutes from Hilo airport. Check-in is 3:00PM & Check-out is at 10:00AM (unless other arrangements have been made). Directions will be e-mailed to you upon confirmation.

This is our third stay in this house. The house is immaculate and the views are next to none. The waves splashing on the lava banks are fantastic and the sound is so soothing. The location is close to Pahoa with great restaurants, grocery and drug stores. I will be back!

Great stay on the Big Island.
Our family (2 adults, 1 older child, 2 younger children) stayed at Ka hale ma kahakai for 2 weeks in Aug 2024 and were not disappointed. When we first walked in, the expansive view was unbelievable and the house was impressive. The house was very clean, spacious, well stocked, nice appliances, great showers and very comfortable beds. We didn't use TVs but Wifi seemed good strength for all our devices. Washer/dryer were new and worked well. Pool and yard were a great addition. Pool wasn't big enough to do lengths, but was great for a swim on hot days to cool down. Lots of patio furniture on lanais and by pool to relax outside. The neighbourhood felt safe and neighbours seemed friendly. Although there is no A/C, and was warm in day, the fans and trade winds did make the house cool at night. However, because of this, the house did stay humid so you have to be prepared for always feeling damp...but I think that is the norm in Hawaii. As for location, we were there for an multi-day event in Hilo and we did find the drive in "rush hour" to be very busy from about 6:30am-8:30am, and then again on return from 3-6pm. It sometimes took over an hour. I may not have been completely prepared for that. It is a single lane road for the most part, and there aren't many bypass roads. As well, even though there is a Malama Market in Pahoa, it is quite costly so we found shopping best in Hilo. This would be the only downfall.

Great Views
The house is much bigger than you would expect from the pictures. We had 6 “adults” - which was me and my husband, and our 18 & 20 year old children and their significant others. The lower level was perfect for the kids, with direct access to the pool and their own living room. The master has spectacular views on the 1st floor. Location is a bit more remote, but it served as a good base to head south, north or west. If you stay here and you need to feed a lot of peopl, a drive over to Costco in Kona would be a good idea as the local grocery stores are high in price (in alignment with the rest of the islands). Would stay here again.

Amazing Views
This home had the most amazing views of the beautiful Pacific Ocean. It was so nice at the house, that we didn't want to leave it to go elsewhere. My daughters loved the pool and sunbathing while listening to the ocean waves crash into the lava rocks. We also loved watching the turtles right from the backyard pop up out of the water. The sounds of the ocean at night while sleeping was also amazing and so calming. I would definitely stay at this home again, it was so peaceful and had everything we needed.

Home by the crashing waves
Overall the house was amazing - especially its proximity to the ocean and the clean pool in the backyard. The house was very spacious (it had a fourth bedroom of which I was not aware). The constant sound of the waves crashing into the shore is what made this house special to me. Sitting on the lanai on the left side of the house was so comfortable with the constant Tradewinds and the view was breathtaking. I was concerned that the kids would not tolerate not having air conditioning, but overall they did just fine. In the middle of the day in July it did get a little hot, but the mornings and evenings were just fine - especially on the lanai. The washer was broken while there and a new one was coming from the main land at some point. We hand washed our clothes and then used the functioning dryer. Being able to do laundry on a long Hawaiian vacation was great. Connie, the property manager, was great. We were a bit slow to get out and they had a quick turnaround between guests. Connie was patient and treated us kindly. Overall I highly recommend staying at this house. I would certainly stay here again :)

This home looked great in the pictures, but they honestly do not do it justice. Definitely the nicest property we ever stayed at! Immaculate, roomy, and well supplied, it exceeded all our expectations. The sunrises were different ever morning, but each one spectacular. The abundance of sea turtles for watching in the water near the shore may have been our favorite part. Thank you for sharing this place with us!

Paradise found
We split our vacation to stay half on each side, and stayed here first. Because we are staying on the Kona side for the second half, we landed in Kona, so it was quite a drive - THAT WE WERE TOTALLY EXPECTING! This is not a complaint, just a statement ;) We arrived in the dark, but were still able to see what a beautiful home this was! We were lulled to sleep by the sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks below. We woke refreshed to the most beautiful views! Our days out were nice because we planned it so that we visited areas on this side while here (Volcano Park, and the coast up from Hilo). We walked the neighborhood and were greeted by a neighbor, we noticed that the Big Island has the friendliest locals (we have stayed at all the main islands)! We were sad to leave, but left feeling so relaxed and refreshed! The home was clean, our bed was so comfortable, and we had plenty of towels, dishes, and more available to us. We ate most meals there, and used the barbecue. This home is off the beaten path, in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with the most amazing views! Thank you for sharing your home with us!!

Windward coast home
Overall we are happy with our stay of six days. It was extremely windy with rough surf for the first few days resulting in salt spray on the house and moisture inside. There are hoses outside so you can wash the windows to see outside. Once the wind decreased and the sun came out it was really good. The house has all tile floors, practical but noisy. Any sounds from the main bedroom could be heard in the bedroom below. There was plenty of kitchen equipment. We saw two whales cruising by. We did use the pool - noodles are provided. The maintenance staff were very responsive. Restaurants and groceries are 15 minutes away. Both the local fish and Mexican restaurants are very good. So is the grocery store. The photo shown is a good example of the surf at this house. Beautiful.

This is a large, beautiful home right on the coast. The huge surf on beautiful lava cliffs was incredible, beautiful private pool with full moon rising out of the Pacific into a palm-lined sky visible from every room and the covered deck.

Nice property
The property is as described in the listing. Beautiful backyard and view. But we couldn’t enjoy the view from the house because of the ocean sprays on the windows. We can go to the patios (upstairs and downstairs - nice), but it was very windy and a bit cold (about 68 to 70 degrees). Unfortunately, during our stay, it was cloudy and raining. The owner was quick in the response. Note: You should read the rental agreement before you pay.

Great location
Best location of anyplace we have stayed. Right on the waterfront where you can sit and watch the waves come in and break over the lava rocks. House was great size and couls easily fit two families. Only downside was something was left in the garbage disposal which had a strong odor. The two indoor garbage containers also had a strong odor from something that had leaked through the plastic bags from previous guests.
