Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Aloha! Welcome to Hale Luana (House of Relaxation). We are the Petersons from Eureka, California and are both elementary school teachers. We have owned this terrific unit since 2004 and have made many improvements since that time. It is our "slice of paradise" and we would love to share it with you until we are able to retire there in a couple of years.
The pictures do not do it justice and the rates are extrememly reasonable for the quality of decor....especially our new "economic stimulus" rates. This is not just a "vacation rental". It is our second home and we have lovingly added special touches to it that other rentals do not have. Please read our past guest comments on this site to get an idea of their satisfaction with Hale Luana.
This is an owner managed unit so you will get personalized service and the assurance that your stay is one you will always remember. We have paid attention to every detail and present a super clean, attractive, comfortable place to stay while visiting Hawaii.
We visit the beach each morning to snorkel. Our favorite spot nearby is at the Mauna Kea's beach. Get there early (before 9:00 AM) to get a beach pass!! We are also working on improving our golf. Ray needs to straighten out his "slice" as he looses 4-6 balls every 18 holes!. I just try to even HIT the ball at this point. :-)
Please feel free to ask us any questions you might have about the unit or the island. We have been told we are informative concierges.
Please let us add to your vacation by offerng you our Hale Luana.
Why the Owner Chose Waikoloa Village
The decision to buy in this location was easy.... we wanted a quiet condo that was closer to the wonderful beaches the island has to offer without having to drive for 25-40 minutes from places in Kailua Kona. We wanted fresh, clean air and knew that Kona has had its share of vog. Waikoloa Village rarely gets any. We will want to retire here part-time so the hussle and bustle of Kona just wasn't what we wanted. The golf course provides a serene view and the discounted golf rates are super! Our location on the island makes it perfect for exploring all areas. Our neighbors are friendly and trustworthy.
We chose this particular unit for it wonderful view and being an end unit we have extra windows and more opportunity for better air flow on those warm days. Being on the bottom floor keeps the interior cooler and it is handy for a quick walk along the boundaries of the golf course. The large tree to the left of our unit provides welcome shade in the afternoon.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
As mentioned above, our neighbors are wonderful. A friendly "good morning", or "come over for a cocktail and watch the sunset" adds to our experience when we visit. Each day we are visited by the comings and goings of the local wild turkeys. They are so fun to watch! They seem to be on their own schedule for commuting from place to place. We awaken to birdsong each day. Since our building is concrete, it is quiet. Having such a well stocked market so close is a treat.
Although we don't watch much TV when we visit, when we do, we are treated to our new large flatscreen TV. A super picture! Better than the one we have on the Mainland, for sure! The same goes for doing the dishes.....a new Bosch dishwasher. You can't even hear it running.
Our unit has a wide selection of Hawaiian music so we tend to have something on the CD player most of the time. It makes working in the unit more pleasurable. We've actually invented projects just to be able to spend time IN the unit! Since we only get over to Hawaii in the summer we often forget to just hang loose in the condo itself. We have decorated it in a relaxed Hawaiian/Asian style which makes the unit more "homey" and not as sterile and bare as some vacation rentals tend to be. We often just sit in the livingroom looking at the artwork and "feeling" the mood.
It really doesn't need to be said that we shed a few tears each time we must leave for the Mainland. It is a given.

We certainly enjoyed our month of relaxation in your condo. It was well stocked and we appreciated the use of all of the beach equipment, as did our grandkids.....

Of the four condos we've rented in Waikoloa, so far this was the best stocked with the nicest furnishings.......By the way, the resident turkeys looked a little worried on Thanksgiving Day!

I appreciate hearing such nice comments. Our goal is to show as accurately as we can what we are offering. Our rates do not reflect what a comfortable, well stocked unit we have. Mahalo for the kind words! Mary
