Set within the prestigious Hualālai Resort on the Kona-Kohala Coast, this newly completed luxury estate offers an exceptional island retreat where contemporary Hawaiian design meets effortless indoor-outdoor living. Spanning 4,483 square feet, the home features soaring ceilings, an expansive great room, and floor-to-ceiling pocket doors that open to breathtaking views of a tranquil reflective pond and the 5th fairway of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. The infinity-edge pool creates a stunning backdrop for relaxation, while two hot tubs, a fire pit lounge, and a covered outdoor kitchen and dining pavilion provide inviting spaces for gathering from sunrise to sunset. Thoughtfully designed with a dedicated home office, premium finishes, smart home technology, and beautifully appointed private suites, every detail reflects comfort, sophistication, and the spirit of island living. Beyond the home, Hualālai Resort places the best of the Big Island within easy reach, from championship golf and ocean adventures to world-class dining, boutique shopping, pristine beaches, and the renowned Kona Coffee region. Whether spending the day exploring the coastline, unwinding beside the pool, or enjoying alfresco evenings under the stars, this exceptional residence offers the perfect balance of privacy, luxury, and connection in one of Hawaiʻi's most sought-after resort communities.

Our promise

We've reviewed thousands of homes and approve only the best. Each one is professionally managed and vetted for comfort and style, raising the bar for every stay.

KEY Curation Notes

Two four-seater golf carts come with the stay. They're the easiest way to move around Hualalai's grounds, and they pair well with the home's setting on the 5th fairway, where the infinity-edge pool and a hot tub appear to spill straight into the adjoining pond and golf course. A second hot tub and fire pit sit near the front courtyard for a separate evening gathering spot.

Every one of the four bedrooms has its own private bath. Two primary-style king suites both open onto golf views and private lanai access, a third king room also has an ensuite, and a queen room sleeping two rounds out the layout. That's a genuine rarity even among high-end rentals and it means no one is sharing a bathroom on this trip.

This is a golf course property, not a beachfront one. The ocean is a drive rather than a walk, though beach towels, chairs, and boogie boards are on hand for whenever you make the trip out. If sand-at-your-feet is the priority for this stay, plan for a short drive rather than expecting shoreline access from the house.

Resort amenities carry a separate daily fee paid directly to Hualalai, not included in the rental rate. It runs from roughly $77 to $237 per adult depending on season, with a required two-consecutive-day minimum for the whole party. Keiki four and under stay free. It's worth budgeting for upfront if pool, spa, tennis, or golf course access at the resort level is part of the plan.

The home is furnished exclusively in down bedding and pillows, with no alternative available. Anyone with feather or down sensitivities should plan to bring their own bedding. Worth flagging before booking rather than discovering on arrival.

Location

Inside the destination

Neighborhood: Hualālai Resort - Hualalai Resort's setting places you at the center of the Big Island's most celebrated coastal corridor. Kona International Airport (KOA) is just minutes away — arrivals are effortless and departures are never rushed. Kailua-Kona town offers open-air dining, farmers markets, boutique shopping, and the laid-back energy of an authentic Hawaiian community. Kua Bay delivers some of the island's clearest snorkeling waters and a postcard-worthy white sand beach. Additional golf links are within easy reach, and the legendary Kona Coffee belt — rolling green farms above the coast — is a short scenic drive that's as rewarding as any planned excursion.
