Map & Owner's Profile
'Malu Wahi' - a Place of Calmness - Tropical Paradise!
Year Purchased: 2000
Why the Owner Chose Private Homes
We chose this property because of the area which is quiet and with old tropical growth , giving the neighborhood a feeling of live in these islands that is lost. The beauty of this home brings you a simplicity to your stay with Palm trees swaying in the Kona trade winds, smell of flowers and birds wake you in the morning. There are fantastic sunsets,star gazing and moon sets from the lanai which faces west over the Pacific Ocean.
The Unique Benefits at this House
When you stay at Malu Wahi, you are centrally located between the 2 most popular sites for visitors. The Volcanoes South and the town of Hilo on the East side of the island. Further North are areas of birth of the Kings Kamehameha. Just below the home is Keauhou Bay where fishing, suba diving boats and kayaks are available.
Owner's Map of Private Homes
For several years before we purchased this home, we rented it as a family with lots of children running around. We so loved this home that each time we left we were sad.
Soon the home became available for sale and with great affection we purchased this large lot with the home which was built in 1970s. It stands on a level lot on a down slope to the ocean with a very tropical garden.
