KEY Curation Notes

Three ensuite bedrooms across two levels ensure private retreats for each guest, with the upstairs primary commanding the entire top floor and featuring an office nook for working travelers. The convertible twin-to-king guest suite offers flexibility for groups of varying size.
Oceanfront on Puako Bay with direct beach and reef access puts you steps from world-class snorkeling, reef exploration, and consistent sea turtle sightings. The protected cove stays calm year-round, ideal for swimming and water activities.
The open-plan great room with vaulted ceilings, gourmet kitchen, and two covered lanais blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors. Dine for eight inside, or move the gathering to either lanai for unobstructed ocean views.
Beach gear is fully stocked—chairs, umbrellas, snorkels, boogie boards, cooler, and water shoes for the lava-rock shoreline. Central AC, Sonos audio system, washer/dryer, and dedicated office space round out the practical essentials.
The shoreline is volcanic rock rather than sand, though water shoes and direct-access tide pools make it navigable and scenic. The property is currently for sale, so confirm availability with management; also note that October's IRONMAN week brings significant road closures to Kona and Kohala.

Reviews

Sheri F

It was an absolutely lovely home which had lovely views from most rooms in the home, as well as direct access to a small private beach. The home had every amenity we could think of, e.g,; watershoes, sun screen, beach towels and hampers. The well appointed outdoor lanai made for relaxing evenings. The kitchen and bathrooms were supplied with everything we could need (or not even realize we needed til we saw it) It was a very comfortable, very clean home with three bedrooms positioned away from each other so that the 6 adults all felt like they had their private space to retreat to. It was a wonderful week spent with the family. Additionally, The easy communication with the management company was a cherry on top of the cake.
