Experience the true Hawaii.
Hale Ka Ikena Nani -House with a beautiful view is a lovely brand new two bedroom home that is light, airy and reminiscent of island living. From the view of the ocean and lava flow to the rainbows appearing over the hills, this peaceful sanctuary is true paradise. Enjoy a 360 degree panoramic view from our Punana meditiation room that includes a unique unbroken view of the pali (escarpment where the lava flows down to the ocean) views of the lava glow at night and beautiful ocean scenery. Imagine relaxing on the lani and watching the plume as the lava flows into the sea and feel the energy of Pele as she creates more land for the island.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
Native Canadians desiring a touch of the real Hawaii.
Why the Owner Chose Kalapana
We chose this beautiful location in Hawaii for it's true authenticity and peaceful lush setting. When you wake up here, you feel that you have been transported to the Hawaii of days gone by. There is a great variety of activities from diving, swimming, snorkeling, sightseeing, shopping. It's being in the country with the convenience of close shopping. This is truly and land of Pele as you can see the lava flow into the ocean from the deck.
The Unique Benefits of this House
While staying in Kalapana, the country atmosphere is augmented by the close local cafe and Kava bar. We can see the ocean on all sides and the volcano flowing into the ocean. Drive just a little while and you can go to the most beautiful tidal pools and hot ponds. Up the hill to Volcano National Park, or to the other side of the island to more beaches and scenic wonders. Sit on the beach sun tanning while looking at the snow at the Mauna Loa observatory.
