Map & Owner's Profile
Wailele Kai Luxury Oceanfront with Waterfall Pool Air Cond.
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Hilo
The tropics are beautiful but at times can be overwhelmingly hot and humid. It is no vacation if we are too hot and sweaty to sleep. To eliminate that problem we installed an air-conditioning system that filtered and dehumidified the air. It is a zoned system so that you can control the temperature of each bedroom and the “great room” with a remote control. We have fans throughout the house for ambiance and use on cooler days.
The magic of the location is how close the house and lanai are to the ocean and the waves. They have no long beach or rock area to travel before breaking because they break directly on the lava cliffs, in front of the house. It is so dramatic that we put the “great room” and the master suite on the second floor to take it in. The other neat part about the location is that as private as the house is, it is still close to city shopping
centers. Going to the movies, getting a coffee and book at Borders, is just
as fun, while on vacation.
The design of the house is two-sided. On the back side you have
the drama of the waves on the cliffs with covered patio and lanai, and the
front side you have the protected private courtyard, lagoon pool with
waterfalls, garden, split-level patios, covered Lanai and lawn. We wanted
to have plenty of places to eat and play, when it got windy on the
Oceanside.
The Unique Benefits at this house
There are so many wonderful sights to see. We hope everyone
that visits here goes to see the lava flowing into the ocean at the viewing
site near Kalapana. Volcano National Park is a must see for people of all
ages. The Japanese gardens and the large banyan trees on Banyan Drive
are a natural treasure and combines to make this a truly enjoyable vacation
destination. We hope you will come to this beautiful place and enjoy it
more, by staying in our new vacation home.
Mahalo,
Steve and Priscilla
Owner's Map of Hilo
We built our dream vacation home hoping to bring the amenities and “the luxury of Kona,” to the tropical Hilo side of the island. We found very few luxury options to stay when we discovered the island, and wanted to change that for our friends and family.

Although we were expecting beautiful based on the pictures when we booked the property, we were not expecting gorgeous! The views from the home are simply stunning and the Management/Owners have really paid attention to all the details to ensure that you feel inmersed in the beauty of the property and the view. Although it rained on us quite a bit, it did not stop us from enjoying the peace and tranquility of the home, the overall spaciousness and the proximity to all kinds of fun activities like snorkeling, hiking, wine tasting, etc. It was a fun week that went by too quick. We had a couple of issues come up during our stay, but Terry was incredibly prompt and took care of them right away.

Everything about this house you will love! When you pull into the driveway, you will get your first view of the bright blue water right in front of the home. It only gets better. As you enter the property you pass by the wonderfully decorated pool. Such a relaxing place to be. Then you move on to see the fantastic ocean views from almost every room in the house. It is amazing! It is relaxing to sit on the lanai and listen to the waves and enjoy the ocean breezes. We sat on the lanai and were able to see dolphins playing in the ocean right in front of the house. Facinating to watch. There was a full moon during our stay and the moon lit up the ocean to gave a very romantic feel. There is nothing negative to say about the house. It is our 6th visit to Hawaii and 4th time to stay at a home on the Big Island. This surpasses all the other homes in every way. We will be back. Don't hestiate to stay at this home. It will be the Hawaiian home that you dreamed of staying in during your tropical vacation.

This place was excellent! You will enjoy high-end materials used in house. The pool is pristine, 180 views of ocean and oh ya, the master bedroom is awesome, with great views of the ocean. It's whale watching season, and the whales did not disappoint.

Beautiful Ocean Front Property

We looked at this location and were very eager to contact the agent to make the necessary booking for a relaxing one week vacation in August 2010. We were able to get the reservation and were totally enthralled by this location. The site as depicted was accurate and met all of our expectations. We had a delightful stay at this beautiful ocean front location. The sound of the waves at night helped us have a relaxing sleep away from the mainland and the busy big city. We were totally at ease. Everything that we wanted was available at our finger tips. The pool only added to our great stay. It was obvious that great care had been put into planning and furnishing this home, which made it so enjoyable. From there, you could visit all the attractive land sites that the Big Island has to offer, then come home to relax. This home was spotlessly clean at all times and you were only a short drive away to the city and all other amenities, including restaurants and shopping. I would not hesitate to recommend this 'home away' to a friend, or even return there for a another relaxing stay ourselves.

Wonderful Relaxing Fun Stay at Wailele

After reviewing this location, we made our reservations for a vaction stay there for one week in August of 2010. This advertised web site accurately depicts exactly what this beautiful property shows. This rental more than met our expectations. Every detail of anything that you might need was already in place where you might look for it. The decor and furnishings were exquisitly planned and the selective air conditioning of each area ensured your maximum comfort at all times.A search of other properties revealed that some other rental properties do not even offer any A/C. After our long flight from the mainland, we were able to completely relax in the luxury of this home away with its breathtaking vistas of the the Pacific Ocean right in your own back yard. All with total privacy! The salt water pool was also so appreciated. I would not hesitate to go back to this lovely home away.

This home is truly a wonderful oceanfront property. The covered lanai off the dining room was a wonderful place to eat our meals. And preparing them was fun too - the view from the kitchen was fantastic. As a matter of fact, there wasn't a room in the entire house that didn't have a terrific ocean view (including one from the master bath tub!) The home had lots of added niceties including binoculars and lanterns. We used the lanterns to light our way back from the nearby lava viewing after dark and they were much better than a simple flashlight. The pool was a wonderful place to relax but was also large enough to play in. The waterfalls made it all the more special. Overall this home is a very wonderful place to stay and we would recommend it to everyone.

This home and property was absolutely beautiful!! We woke to the sound of waves and to a beautiful sunrise!!! If you're looking to get away and to be surrounded by a tranquil atmosphere, this is the place for you. Everything was clean and new in this home. The description of this home was definitely accurate and the owner provided great customer service. We drove about 30 minutes away to a black sand beach and there were large sea turtles everywhere. We didn't get to see whales at the rental house but it might not have been the right season. My husband and I had so much fun together. We have 8 adopted children and 2 biological children and we hadn't gotten away for a break for a long time. We felt so refreshed when our time was up and were ready to see our "tribe" of children when we got back home! We sure missed them! Anyone who rents this home will be thrilled! The air conditioning and internet access were nice perks as well!! Not all the rentals in Hawaii have air conditioning and it can get humid! Honestly, I can't think of one negative thing to share about this home. It definitely exceeded our expectations! Aloha!! Renee' and Derek
