Aloha! Come to Kapoho Bay, a snorkeler’s delight, where the sun shines and the trade winds blow, located in the SE corner of the Big Island, a short 35-minute drive from the Hilo airport.
Slip into Island Time as lush tropical colors, walls of windows, and Asian-inspired decor surround you with a sense of serenity. The sounds of the ocean can be heard throughout. Your home away from home sleeps up to 6 people; there are two private bedrooms, one located on each of two levels, and the rec room has a futon couch, which can double as a third bed. There is a full-size living room, dining room, a spacious chef’s kitchen, as well as an office area and there is a bathroom on both floors. The lower level is wheelchair-friendly with wider doors, large roll-in shower, grab bars, etc. Three lanais will accommodate your every need: there is a screened-in dining deck, a ground-level covered lanai, and a large open upper lanai. Relax, stretch out and soak up some sun, listen to the waves, and enjoy the garden vegetation and mountain views.
A 2-block walk brings you to the best snorkeling site on the island, Waiopai Marine Conservation Area. In protected waters, you can swim and snorkel amongst coral and a myriad of colorful ocean creatures, including sea turtles. Five minutes down the road is Ahalanui Warm Springs Park, where volcanically heated water mixes with seawater to provide a natural hot pond for swimming and soaking. Five more minutes brings you to Pohoiki Point for surfing and boogie boarding. Fifteen minutes from the house is Kehena Black Sand Beach.
