Koko Kai Thai Palace..... Custom designed home (actually two homes, a very large three-story home with an elevator, and also a separate guest cottage located across the swimming pool from the main home) is nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac in Koko Kai, an area of South-East Oahu (part of Honolulu) also called 'The Triangle' in Koko Kai. This magnificent villa built in the style of a Palace in Thailand by Zen Buddhists, with many exotic hard woods and tile imported from Thailand, features altogether 5 bedrooms and 4 baths and 2 half-baths, with additional sleeping quarters furnished with comfortable convertible foutons-sofas to sleep a total of 15 guests. This magnificent villa is located high up above the other villas on the side of the extinct crater which forms the world-famous Hanauma Bay nature preserve beach and snorkling-diving very protected and pristine beach located just over the crater's edge from the backyard of the villa. The home offers beautiful wrap-around views from every room. Amazing views of the sunset over Diamond Head crater on Waikiki Beach, ocean and surf views by day and City lights by night. Bonus views of the mountains and marina as well! Custom finishes include exotic hard woods, granite & marbles throughout. Can you see the resemblance to Noah's arc in the photo on which you can see both the main three-story villa in the forefront and the separate Guest Cottage in the rear a bit further up the side of the crater.
This property has a great floor plan for a large family, and includes a separate guest suite in the Guest Cottage, separate office, swimming pool and Jacuzzi. Indoor and Outdoor entertainment space, extra family/TV room with the latest model Large 3D Flat TV's and all the premium cable TV Entertainment channels, a complimentary land line with unlimited calling in Hawaii and in the USA at no extra charge, and a high-speed broad-band unlimited internet connection both by ethernet localnetwork cable as well as via WIFI, at no extra charge, plus 3+ car parking with gated entry. Ideally located close to Hanauma Bay which incredible as it sounds is located right over the ridge of the extinct volcano, or you can comfortably walk there in 5 minutes from this home so you don't need a car to go swimming and snorkeling and diving in the world-famous Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve where every creature including the very friendly and docile tropical fish, the plentiful large green turtles and even the live coral is protected and the general public and tourists have to watch a movie about the ecology and conservation efforts to preserve the natural wonders of this bay that until approx. 1950 was reserved for the use of only the Hawaiian Royal family, before they can go swimming or snorkeling or diving in it. This villa is also within walking distance to 3 shopping centers and fine dining and casual restaurants, gym and theater! Public transportation is also very conveniently close-by at the entrance to the Hanauma Bay parking lot, so you can go all around the island of Oahu if you wish for just a couple of dollars!
The separate Guest Cottage and/or the Luxurious Third Floor Master-Bedroom with it's own Jacuzzi Whirlpool bath-tub can also be rented separately or if you don't require so much accommodations space we can adjust the rates downward. The villa is also available for Wedding Receptions, Movie-Making and Commercials-TV Productions, as well as large-Family get-togethers. There are fruit trees on the large tropical landscaped grounds, and reverse-osmosis filtered and energized water available to you free on tap in the kitchen!
If you are looking for a luxurious yet very, very private vacation very close to the best swimming and snorkeling beech on Oahu, with a pool and jacuzzi located so high above the other homes in the area that you have total privacy, this is your best choice! While you can see unobstructed views of the coastline from almost every window, no one can see you to notice if you are wearing beach-wear or not!
Luxury home recently extensively upgraded ...: The swimming pool and jacuzzi have been recently upgraded so that there is no chlorine used anymore, and the pool stays squeeky clean because it is a so-called 'Salt-Water Pool' which means that there is some salt added but it's only about 1/10 as salty as the ocean, and through ozonation the pool is cleaned by oxygen as well as by UV-light and sand-filtration, so that between the healthy water in the pool and the fantastic and absolutely private views from the pool and jacuzzi you are going to have the experience of your life-time! No swimming suit required! State-of-the-art 'Blazing Tubes' Solar Water-Heating Panels which were recently installed (at the end of the year 2011) make sure that the outdoor jacuzzi is heated ecologically, with any excess hot water generated so generously by the warm Hawaiian sun 'spilled' over into the swimming pool to make it warmer as well, all without any guilt about wasting the earth's renewable resources! Domestic hot-water (showers etc.) is also solar-heated!
Because this house is located in the prestigious KokoKai Triangle/Portlock residential beach-side area of Honolulu where by law the house can only be rented once in any 30-day period and due to the economics of ownership and maintenance in top condition of such a house it simply is not economically feasible to rent the house for less than approx. ten days - two weeks except perhaps under special circumstances you might be able to rent it for one week or longer. There is no fixed check-in/check-out day of the week.
With all the 'green' ecological measures that the owner has taken in remodeling to reduce the operating cost of the house including the latest 'Blazing Tubes' solar water heating panels with a system installed to heat the outdoor jacuzzi and pool and another separate system to heat the hot water for the use inside the house for showers and baths etc. it is preferable to rent the house for longer periods and thus we can offer you very special deals on longer stays of longer than a week, for up to a month or more. The peak rental season as far as the rental cost is June through September and Christmas/NewYears, and prices may vary depending on how many persons are in your group and how many adults and the number and ages of kids that are accompanying the adults.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2011
About the owner: Aloha, in January 2011 I purchased the home of my dreams in the exclusive Triangle/Portlock residential area of Honolulu in Hawaii Kai, and I invested not only all my money but had to sell the villa in my native city of Prague that was in our family for 80 years in order to be able to buy it, and still ended up with a small mortgage to pay --- for the next 30 years! If it were not for the mortgage I would be living in my dream home right now, but at least until I finish up some business in Prague where I returned from Los Angeles following the 'Velvet Revolution' in my native CzechoSlovakia in the then communist CzechoSlovak Socialist Republic in 1989, I will have to rent my beautiful home at least most of the year in order to be able to come and enjoy it at least once a year (in July or August) with my family for our 'working vacation'. The house was 'perfect' when I bought it and all my efforts since then have been to make it an even better place to live for me and my family, which should make it even more attractive and comfortable for you to stay in when you rent it. All improvements that I make and all purchases of new TV sets and other electronics and furniture are done with the long-term best interests in mind, and as a result of the visit of my almost ninety-year-old parents from Los Angeles in August 2012 and again in July 2013 the villa will be even more handicapped-access friendly. I hope that you will enjoy staying in my home as much as my family and I do. Milan Vacek, vacek cz .
Why the Owner Chose Honolulu:
I purchased this particular home because from the first moment that I saw it and especially once I was inside and saw the spectacular unobstructed views of the coastline and all the beautiful massive wood and marble and huge picture windows construction with plentiful louvered and screend windows for natural flow-through ventilation and the elevator to connect the three levels of the main house as well as the georgeous separate entrance Studio Guest Cottage I just knew that I had to buy it ... and I did! The home was not cheap, but just a couple of years before I purchased it it was listed for sale for more than double the price that I had purchased it for, and the owners who built this magnificent home with so much love and caring and with no expense spared had invested so much money into making it the beautiful palace that it is that jsut about all the money that I paid them just went to pay off their mortgage, so I have no doubt that it was a 'bargain', and I am very proud to be the owner. I had resolved after seeing dozens of other beautifull homes mostly scattered over the nearby hilltops that I wanted to live in the Triangle area because of the proximity to the world-famous Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve in order to be close to the beautiful sheltered beach and live coral and incredibly tame fish and large green turtles with which I so much enjoy snorkeling and hope to be also scuba-diving in the future, which is only a short walking distance from the villa, as are several excellent public schools, shopping centers and many other attractions. I had toyed with the idea of buying a home in the 'marina' area which would have had a slip and the possibility of having a boat with which I could have had easy access to the sea, but because of the low bridge under which all boats have to go it is not possible to have a sailboat and in the wake of the recent tsunami disasters in Thailand and Japan I wanted to be high above any tsunami dangers, which I am!
The Unique Benefits at this Villa:
I love the fact that the home is ideally located high up the side of the extinct crater way above all the surrounding homes offering spectacular unobstructed views of the coastline, and enjoying natural easy breazes from the ocean which flow through the many louvered and screened windows to offer perfectly comfortable fresh air at all times without any need for airconditioning or heating year-round, at one with nature, just as the builders, who are Zen-Buddhists (Swiss professor and his Thai wife) had intended to be, a perfect place for contemplation, meditation, relaxation and regaining new energy. I hope that you will enjoy staying in my home as much as I do. It is called the KokoKaiThaiPalace (com) becaue it is on the seeward ('Kai') side of the extinct Koko Crater, and it was built lika a Thai Palace, and the street that it is on, Kekaha Place, well isn!t it a coincidence, that 'Kekaha' means 'The Place' ! This is my place in paradise!
The first available open term for you to rent the KokoKaiThaiPalace com (aka AlohaPalace com) is July 1, 2014, and we are looking for the best offer on a rental for the entire month of July 2014 or August 2014. Beginning on September 1, 2014 the AlohaPalace will be offered for long term rental preferably for the entire school year until June 30, 2015, or for at least month-long rentals, depending on what offers we receive, so you are welcome to inquire with the owner, Milan Vacek.
