Oceanfront - Private- Family Friendly He'eia Bay-House and Cottage-

Ocean front- Nestled between Historic He`eia Bay and Keauhou Bay- Kinohi at He`eia

Welcome to He`eia Bay Hale. Comfortable and bright, this house and guest cottage has 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the main house and two queen size sofa beds and bathroom in the guest cottage. Back to the kamaaina style hale (house) that offers a private pool, Jacuzzi, outdoor shower, large yard, sits up on the bluff- on the edge of He`eia Bay, the favorite surfing spot of the Ali`i. Very private and quiet, it is a place to relax and enjoy the sounds of the ocean waves.

Nestled between Historic He`eia and Keauhou Bay a short walk to get to the beach and experience the warm waters of Kona. There are options for fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, (we have them for your use at the house!) or booking a Manta Ray dive off Keauhou bay. We have a guidebook full of recommendations for your visit.

Perfect family getaway
We can’t say enough good about our time here. The home was just as described and had everything we needed and more. The location is amazing, beautiful views and the sounds of the ocean all day and night. Nancy was helpful and easy to work with and gave us good recommendations. The check in and out process was so easy. We would love to stay here again!!!

I can’t say enough about how amazing this property is, and how gracious the host is. I brought my entire family here to the big island, and we all enjoyed so much, and it could not have been any better. Thank you Nancy. Mahalo!

Thanksgiving Holiday
Our family of 13, including an infant and 5 year old twins, had a great time over the Thanksgiving holiday. The property had plenty of room for all of us, and we had great time using the pool and watching spectacular sunsets each evening. The whales were just arriving from Alaska, and that was a unique experience.

Amazing Property in an Amazing Location!!! Worth every penny and the pictures on line only give a snap shot of the beauty of this property. From picture perfect sunsets to listening to waves crash on shore while we slept we were constantly in awe. Owners were so kind and provided great communication.

Paradise!!
This property was absolutely perfect for our family of 13. The location is spectacular overlooking the ocean. The house was extremely well equipped and had everything we needed. Our grandchildren especially enjoyed the pool. Nancy was a wonderful host promptly answering any questions we had. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay on our visit to Hawaii.

An Amazing Place to Gather
Three generations of family made the He'eia Bay House and Cottage our home base for a wonderful week on the Big Island. No matter where we all went during the day, we loved coming back to the most beautiful sunsets viewed from the patio (and from inside the pool!). The bedrooms and living spaces fit our needs perfectly and the host was very easy to work with. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Stay
The house and grounds were wonderful. Perfect for our family of all ages. We contacted the host for any issues and they were very responsive and helpful. Great quiet neighborhood with a short walk to a fun rocky beach for exploring. The pool and view were the real highlight! We hope to be back again!

Great Place!
We were a family of 10 and we were not crowded at all. The grounds and pool were wonderful. The best pool we have had over previous rental locations. Nancy was very easy to communicate with quick responses to all questions. The house and ohana were very comfortable and well appointed. Close to beaches and shopping. Quiet neighborhood. Plenty of beach equipment available (SUP, kayak, snorkeling gear). Highly recommend this place.

Most beautiful property
The check in process was very smooth and quick, Nancy was fast at responding to all of my questions. The house is located on a perfect piece of property that gives you the best views for sunsets with privacy. Our family really enjoyed the pool and hot tub at all times of the day. We were a group of 9, and there was still plenty of space available. This truly was the best property that we have stayed at in Kona. We can't wait to plan another vacation back.
