Nestled oh the slopes of Hualalai, the Keauhou Hideaway is a private retreat on 2.7 acres of lush tropical vegetation. The 800' elevation affords a spectacular view of the Kona coastline and ensures warm, sunny days and cool nights.
Completely renovated in 2000 and 2005, the Hideaway is composed of 4 separate buildings linked to create a delightful courtyard perfect for breakfast smoothies.
The tranquil setting includes mango, avocado, fig, papaya and citrus trees, passion fruit vines, bananas, herbs and more. Java sparrows, doves, finches, cardinals, and canaries wake you with their songs. A great palace to unwind!

Keauhou Hideaway - ~A~ Private Retreat on 2.7 Acres
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
We chose this property because the setting, view and climate are awesome at this elevation, and the neighborhood is laid back and delightful, with many coffee growers, and even a chocolate "factory".
The Unique Benefits at this House
The Hideaway offers plenty of privacy, while still convenient to all amenities. Some of our guests compare it to staying at your own private spa. In the morning, you can pick a papaya and a lime off our trees, and create a delicious breakfast.
If you are a plant lover, there is a treat in store for you here...all sorts of beautiful trees, bushes and flowers. If you enjoyed the movie, "Enchanted April", we think you'll like the Hideaway.

Gracious Retreat, Stunning Views, Exquisite Gardens

Keauhou Hideaway is a unique and incredible property in a lovely upcountry neighborhood. The views of the ocean are sweeping, with sunsets that one simply melts into while sipping wine on the lovely deck. The gardens: oh my! The owners of this property clearly appreciate strong landscape architectural design and love luscious fruits and plants. It is a treat to walk through the gardens early in the morning and continue to find fine natural details. Later in the day, we appreciated being able to cool off in the small pool and hop into the hot tub. The rooms are simple with a quiet feeling. I found it easy to nap and read a novel from our bedroom. The kitchen is very well appointed, open and a place in which we enjoyed cooking many fine meals (often, we did not want to venture out for dining because of the lure of this home). Living areas, both outside and inside, are inviting and airy. My husband was often out in the atrium to read or visit with our friends. The home is also immaculate. A short drive away, one can arrive at any number of beaches for swimming with turtles, snorkeling, and kayaking. Charming villages and restaurants are also within easy driving distance. This was quite simply one of the best places we've experienced in our many travels throughout Hawaii. Try it!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, sightseeing, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children.
Relax and get away from it all!

How do you measure a great vacation? Have you had one lately? My family and I enjoyed a great one at the Hideaway! When I returned from our Hideaway vacation the first thing that startled me was a car driving by on my street as I lay in bed. At the Hideaway I had not heard a single vehicle while lying in bed, or lounging by the pool for over a week. With the exception of chirping bird songs, and the distant crow of a roster, the Hideaway is very quiet and peaceful. This home is located on a narrow private drive, with only a few other homes nearby. It's private, secluded settling make it a great place to relax and unwind. My wife and I went with our girls, 10 and 14 years old and stayed about 10 days at the Hideaway in June. The entire family enjoyed the expansive, lush grounds with the fruit trees (the girls loved spotting and picking “ripe ones”) and the variety of beautiful birds. The wide blue Pacific is the backdrop to the lanai and pool areas, delighting with beautiful sunsets. As those of you who have been know, the big island’s lava shores do not offer numerous or extensive sandy beaches. Oceanfront living delivers only the sights and sounds of the surf, as access is focused on limited beach areas. Humidity at sea level is noticeably higher than at the Hideaway’s 800 foot elevation, making it distinctly more pleasant and easier to get a restful night’s sleep up on the mountain side. The configuration of the Hideaway’s three bedrooms, each with their own bath, allows a degree of privacy and ability to sleep-in if one chooses. The separate kitchen, dining and living room building lets those who wish to stay up or get up early, do so with disturbing others. The courtyard between the buildings, the lanai, pool and hot tub areas offer areas for relaxation, reading, bird watching, or whatever. Meals can be easily served outdoors at the lanai table. It is a short drive north into Kona. Great restaurants are minutes away in every direction. Shopping is also just minutes away. I highly recommend the kayak trip across Kealakakua Bay. Go early - snorkeling the reef in front of Capt'n Cook's monument is fantastic and if the Dolphins are in they will captivate you with their grace and thrilling jumps. My family and I can’t wait to return to the Hideaway, hopefully next time for 2 weeks!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.
