Hale Hana Hou - Airy Home Just 5 Minutes Walk to Manini Beach

Year Purchased: 2000

Why the Owner Chose Kealakekua Bay

The community of Napoopoo, at the edge of pristine Kealakekua Bay, is quite small and there are very few opportunities to purchase property there. When this home came on the market we jumped on it with the encouragement of my step-mother who lives nearby. Our entire family has benefited from the opportunity to spend vacations at Hale Hana Hou and we have enjoyed success with the vacation rental, forming many warm relationships with our guests.

The Unique Benefits at this House

Well, of course, it feels like home every time we go over to Hawaii. We've had many repeat guests who feel the same way, some that have come back 5 years in a row. Looking out the windows at all the lovely palms and lush vegetation, feeling the ocean breeze while sitting on the lanai with morning coffee and listening to the birds singing, walking down to the bay to see if the dolphins are in...all mean Hale Hana Hou. And of course all the activities listed on the web site: snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, sightseeing, driving down to the volcano, driving up to Waimea or in to Kona for Slack Key Guitar concerts. Wonderful!

    • Dear Melouise, I just wanted to let you know that we had a fantastic trip to the big island. We especially loved Kealakekua Bay and the beach access so close to your house. The snorkeling was the best we have ever seen. Thanks so much for opening your wonderful house to us.

    • Wonderful! The location is great, green around the house, but you can hear the ocean. Inside the house everything is easy, its well furnished and decorated and the athmosphere is really good. So we spent some quiet hours in/outside the hose and at the lanai. We enjoyed snorkeling and sunset at Manini Beach, swimming , kayaking at Kealakekku Bay..and more. If we ever come back to Big Island we`ll try to stay in this house again. Thanks to Melouise foir running that place so well, and to Karin fo being so kind!! Beate ans Karsten with Wilhelm and Jolanthe. P.S. Maybe there are some mistakes in my english but I can recommend the house also in german. Beate

    • We’ve rented homes on the various Hawaiian islands for about 15 years now, and before now we have never found one on the Big Island we’d go back to. We’re so glad to have found Hale Hana Hou, as we would return to your lovely home in a heartbeat. The location is prime; it was a joy to wake up to the sounds of birds and the surf every morning. The walk to Napoopoo beach was short and the snorkeling there was stupendous. And the owner's attention to detail is amazing; we’ve never stayed in a home that was so well-equipped. The kitchen, laundry room, and outdoor areas had everything we could possibly have hoped for to make our trip memorable, relaxing, and a joy, including an amazing array of snorkeling equipment and an outdoor grill. We also enjoyed all of the fruit trees on the property (grapefruit, breadfruit, mango, papaya, coconut, lime, pineapple, etc.) The local artwork in the home also helped make the ambiance restful; there are beautiful pieces of Kapa (Hawaiian handmade and hand-printed art paper) and the paintings are very nice as well. Overall, we could not have wished for anything else, it was truly a superb visit. The owner, Melouise, was also very accommodating and attentive and a pleasure to work woth. Next time we’ll plan to stay longer. Mahalo for everything, Aloha
