Experience island-style living infused with heightened luxury at this elegant 3-bedroom villa. Nohea at Mauna Lani is located in a lush corner of Big Island’s Kohala Coast, a diverse landscape overflowing with natural beauty and upscale living. You and your guests will enjoy a private retreat where stress and worries evaporate under the endless Hawaiian sun. Have your choice of the private pool at #18 or the large community pool and fitness center located within the gated community.
Discover a contemporary take on traditional island bungalows in a private, picturesque setting amid lush foliage and volcanic rock. The white sands of Kohala are only 5 minutes away, but you’ll be excused for never wanting to leave your property. Enter via a floating walkway that traverses the central courtyard’s serene Koi pond. The pool terrace out-zens any spa, with its designer sun loungers, gazebo, alfresco table and refreshing pool all at your disposal. Spend cool nights in the bubbling hot tub, gazing up to the stars.
Stunning woodwork infuses the home with Hawaii’s warm and welcoming spirit. An elegant coffered ceiling presides over the great room where the line between inside and outside is blurred by a retractable pocket glass wall. Modern rattan furnishings and numerous cultural artifacts further the traditional ambiance, and in the spacious kitchen, you’ll discover natural stone counters with professional appliances built in. Unwind on bright, upholstered sofas in the entertainment room, while a film plays on the advanced home theater system.
Your villa’s three bedrooms are tropical escapes unto themselves; each one is a full master suite. Two bedrooms reside in the main house, with the third found in a charming guest house. All three feature king beds adorned with designer linens, situated below vaulted ceilings embedded with fine wood. The two main house bedrooms hold spacious ensuites with exquisite tile work and smooth, granite deep-soak tubs.
You’ll find two beaches within 5 minutes of your villa, while one of Big Island’s best, Hapuna Beach, is only a 10 minute drive away. Both Nohea resort and the adjacent Mauna Lani resort feature upscale boutiques and fine dining. The Kohala coast has a diverse range of natural attractions ranging from whale watching and snorkeling, to rainforests and unique volcanic formations. It is well worth hiring a guide to explore the best spots.
The Beach Club at Mauna Lani is barely a ten minute walk, with a convenient parking lot for those who prefer to cruise. Outfitted with superb water sport activities like surfing, snorkeling, and boat excursions, the club also contains a full bar and restaurant right off the beach.
