Maile Hale: Private Oceanview Retreat w/ AC, Near Beaches & More

Experience a Hawaiian getaway like no other in this private, ocean-view retreat located in the prestigious, gated Keauhou Estates community. Just minutes from the beach, restaurants, shopping, and a variety of island activities, this three-bedroom, two-bath home away from home features split air conditioning, high-speed wireless internet, cable television, and a washer and dryer for total guest comfort and convenience.

A spectacular mahogany double-door entry invites you into Maile Hale's single-level, open-concept floor plan. The primary and guest bedrooms are situated on opposite sides of the home to maximize privacy. The spacious primary bedroom boasts two sets of sliding doors leading to two lanais, a large walk-in closet, and an en suite bathroom with a soaking tub, separate shower, and double vanity.

Maile Hale's sprawling common areas include a kitchen with solid granite counters, Maytag double ovens, and a Maytag French-door refrigerator, range, dishwasher, and microwave. Lovely ocean views greet you from the dining area for six and the expansive living space with a large television and welcoming seating. The openness of the space allows the whole group to enjoy vacation time together, and the huge glass doors create a true indoor-outdoor living experience, opening to a covered lanai.

Have a relaxing open-air meal in the shade of the lanai after preparing your food on the barbecue grill. Lounge in the sun or play on the lush lawn. The property also features a young banana tree and a mature papaya tree.

Guests of this Kona home on the Big Island's popular west coast enjoy easy access to Kahaluu Beach Park and White Sands Beach Park. Stand-up paddling on Keauhou Bay, golf, hiking, manta ray night dives, coffee farm tours, and historical sites such as the Place of Refuge are also nearby, and just a short drive leads to Kona town's many restaurant and shopping options.

Fantastic home for a family vacation
We were a family of 6, with 4 adult children. The home was spacious and ideally suited for our group. The location is fantastic with beautiful ocean views and easy access to groceries and the beach. The home is well appointed and has everything you will need for a great vacation. Recommend very highly!

Great location, convenient to the Keahou Shopping Center ( less than 5 min. away) where there are restaurants, grocery stores, and drug stores among other shops. Nice and quiet neighborhood and very safe feeling. A wild turkey visited every morning. Beautiful view and accommodations. Would return to this one again.

Beautiful house, very spacious, with a lovely view of the sunset. Our multi-generational family group was very comfortable there. We enjoyed the use of beach chairs, umbrella and bogey boards. Response from property manager was very prompt when we had a few questions. Highly recommended.

Our Corporate Trainer loved this location! It was originally booked for our CEO as well, but he wasn't able to join our Trainer on this visit. The feedback was great and I will book this location for them again in the future, as they make the trip out to Kona, 4 times a year. Thanks for the ease in booking and communication. Great location to stay!

Lovely vacation
This property was exactly as described. The view was spectacular! The gift bag upon arrival was a nice touch. And the extras - like aloe for our sunburns - were thought out and appreciated. We were 2 couples and 2 kids, and everyone had ample room to spread out and relax. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location was very close to the snorkeling we wanted to do - and only about fifteen minutes from the restaurants we wanted to try. We truly had a lovely stay and a wonderful vacation.

Quiet stay
We've stayed @ several VRBO homes through the years. This home was very clean & nicely decorated. We did have some inconveniences--no extra towels or toilet paper in Master Bath. In the manual, it's stated once you run out, you're required to get your own replacement. Never had that stated nor problem @ any other house; most had extra supplies in a closet/pantry. VERY limited kitchen "extras"--ie: no sugar for coffee. There were a few spices in the cabinet. No cooler or ziplock bags for day trips to pack up food so we wouldn't have to buy more. This would have been nice. (We've always had a cooler, plastic wrap, foil, ziplocks in other VRBO stays). Being our 1st time to the BI, we didn't realize how much time we'd be on the road w/limited food options. In the manual it's requested to start a "White Load" before checking out. All the towels were white but we didn't use enough to start a white load. We did a bedding/sheets load. Upon opening the washer after it was done, there was flecks of soap or something ALL over the fabrics. Not sure what that was...On trash collection day, we didn't put the recycling bin on the curb. As my husband was sitting out on the lanai, some lady walked up & proceeded to roll the recycling bin to the curb. My hubby told her: "There's only ONE empty plastic bottle in the bin. I didn't think it was practical to put the recycling bin on the curb to be emptied because it would be wasteful to have the plastic liner dumped out (along w/the one bottle). So the lady put the recycle bin back on the driveway. Perhaps it was a neighbor trying to help out or maybe the owner lives close by in another residence, but we did inform the property company of that scenario & the issue with the washer. We did have issues working the TV in the Master bedroom. With all the cable options listed, the directions didn't coincide with the remote. Watch out for the extended wood bed frame in the MB! Both my hubby & I hit our shins on it since it sticks out underneath the bedspread.

Awesome Hawaiian Getaway
This is a beautiful home-and it’s exactly as portrayed in the listing. Actually, it’s better, because you can see more of the ocean than it seems in the pictures. We ate most meals out on the lanai. At night,after watching the beautiful sunset, it is absolutely silent. Just the breeze rustling the palms. The kitchen is quite spacious and fully equipped. Loved every minute there.

Beautiful view in Kona
My husband and I came here from Oahu for a beautiful Big Island honeymoon. Tricky A/C & strange shower heads with not enough water pressure for us. I didn’t like these features at all. The big hot tub/ bathtub had enough water pressure with the wand, but it too was awkward, with too much water pressure. Hiking on the Big Island is a dirty, sandy, but awesome experience. Kona side gets HOT, especially in the summer. Air conditioning is a must. Overall: The view is amazing and the house is beautiful with everything you need- beach chairs, bbq grill, washer & dryer, beautiful grounds, and so much more. Very safe, gated neighborhood with guard shack. Nice and quiet. Definitely felt like a true getaway. Check in process was awkward but eventually worked out. Don’t speed anywhere on the highway, especially heading back towards Kona from Waikaloa by the airport. It’s full of speed traps. Lots of road construction going on here, so allow extra time for traffic. Tourism is coming back. Which is good for our islands. Kona town is fun, vibrant and slowly coming back to life. I would definitely recommend staying at this beautiful home. It’s great for anyone: small families, couples or two couples. Comfy bed too. Quiet, peaceful neighborhood. Not a party house or party neighborhood. Just chill & relax!

We really enjoyed this property. My family of 5 had plenty of room to spread out. The neighborhood was private and quiet, and the view was fantastic! You can see the ocean from the master bed. The property feels very new and clean, and the kitchen is incredibly well stocked with every cooking utensil you may want. Neighborhood grocery and restaurants are close. Unless you are set on having a pool, I can’t imagine there is a better place to stay in greater Kona.

Simply Fantastic!
Simply fantastic! From every aspect superb, we couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves more or had better accommodation bar none! The sunsets over the ocean were some of the best of all the places we have traveled in the world---right from the patio. We enjoyed great home cooked dinners there, as well as the occasional rain. The extremely quiet neighborhood is the most beautiful we have ever stayed in, and we spent hours just walking through it trying to take it all in. And the birds…we felt like we were in the middle of a jungle while living in the lap of luxury. The accommodations, the beds, everything, top of the line and the ultimate in comfort. And if all that wasn’t enough, a gated 24 hour live guarded community affording complete safety. Thanks for making our stay one we will never forget and already hope to come back to enjoy again!
