Originally the residence of Kona Makai's land-holding Hawaiian family, we have restored this home beyond its original grandeur! The discovery of hidden parquet hardwood flooring prompted us to restore and completely remodel this very unique condominium, which exemplifies Hawaiian elegance and romance. We affectionately call Kona Makai 1-302 the "Love Shack!" Take a look, and you’ll see why!
Complete with master bedroom air-conditioning, hardwood floors, all-tile bath, entry and lanai, and a cherry wood kitchen with granite counter-tops, this special third floor home is the ultimate in serenity and island elegance.
The spectacular view from the lanai is toward Kailua Bay, where cruise ships anchor, and overlooks the IronMan swim course. Sunsets are viewed year round from the lanai, from the bistro style table that put you above the view obstruction of the lanai railing.
The sound of the ocean will lull you to sleep in the peaceful and romantic master bedroom, furnished with a heavenly hand carved four posted Balinese Teak KING bed, Hawaiian bed linens, koa-wood framed art, a carved wood ceiling fan, restored teak ceiling-to-floor shutters, fine furnishings and generous mirrors, all softened by sheers of bed drapes drawn back by hand made rope. Wow!
A spiral staircase leads from the living room to the soft blue-greens of the upstairs loft-bedroom, decorated in a sophisticated and private grass hut style, including a cozy reading nook and lauhala mat wall coverings. The queen bed is shrouded with romantic mosquito netting, and woven mats provide excellent privacy. This room is fully furnished and has a full-size closet. Ceiling fans keep this room very comfortable.
The furnished tiled lanai boasts a spectacular view of the ocean and Kona Bay, with sunsets beyond compare. You will be delighted by all the little extras provided by the owners (CD collection of Hawaiian music, books on Hawaiian culture and history, binoculars for whale and dolphin sightings, and much more!)
Kona Makai is among the most sought after vacation destinations in the Kona area. This beautifully landscaped condominium community has won numerous awards for its gardens, and is walking distance to the heart of the town. The pool, spa, gas BBQ, gym (with exercise machines and weights), tennis courts, ping-pong tables, community areas and on-the-ocean lounging patio make this a complete island retreat. Known for the friendliness of it’s visitors, the complex is located well off Ali’i drive where there is no automobile traffic or noise to interrupt the peaceful ambience.
The ocean is often safely accessible from the inlet immediately in front of the common areas, where you will find yourself within a fantastic snorkeling reef, with numerous arches and a plethora of tropical fish and sealife. We always see turtles during our swims. A large lava outcropping covered with tide pools lies immediately in front of the building awaiting your exploration.
We’re sure you’ll enjoy your stay in our unique island retreat! Welcome and Aloha! Peter & Darla
(We also own VRBO #33754, a Kona oceanfront 2/2 town house literally feet away from the ocean, and a private oceanfront 1/1 studio (vrbo # 46951)which is part of our 3/3 Kona home @ VRBO # 34465. If you like to sit in privacy just above the breaking waves, take a look there too!
