Enjoy the many beautiful white sand beaches in close proximity to the property. The private owner’s beach is a 3 min drive away. It is a sparkling white sand beach enclosed by corral and very safe for the kids. It is lifeguarded. While the kids are enjoying a swim and a snorkel (snorkel sets included) - you may enjoy a cool drink at the restaurant overlooking the beach. it is so pretty and picturesque.
Another beach is a 10 minute walk away. Next to it is a turtle sanctuary - a delight for the children.

About Elena Haluk
We are a professional couple with three hockey-obsessed kids. You guessed it - we hail from Canada, eh?!
We love travelling and exploring the wonders of the world. To us, the Big Island of Hawaii is one of those magical wonders. Come enjoy and fall in love with it like we did!
Elena Haluk purchased this townhome in 2013
Why Elena Haluk chose Kohala Coast
Superb location - top notch restaurants, gorgeous beaches, superb hiking trails, thrilling water sports - all a few minutes' walk or a short drive away. All this combined with the perfect weather and the natural splendour of the Big Island creates an ideal vacation get away!
What makes this townhome unique
Unlike other units in the Fairways, the townhouse offers complete privacy and breathtaking views of the golf course and the swaying palm trees - nothing else. You will feel as if the whole world belongs to you alone.
At the same time the unit is very close to the pool, hot tub and workout facility. Access is a walk across the super low traffic street. The community is extremely safe and we feel safe letting our kids explore on their own.

Big Island Home Away from Home
We were so grateful to have this beautiful home to stay in while we visited Kona. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The location was perfect - close to the Mauna Lani shops, beaches, and Fairmont Orchid hotel. The shops had everything we needed - grocery store, Kimobean coffee shop (with amazing coconut scones), surf shops (where we rented a golf cart for scooting around), Tommy Bahama restaurant and happy hour (so good!), and many others. We were able to spend time at the residents only beach (where we snorkeled) and the Fairmont Orchid beach (where we did SUP in the bay and enjoyed the beach cabanas). We also attended the Luau at Fairmont Orchid which was a great show and the food was outstanding. And, we were able to get SO MANY beautiful pictures of our family on the beach -- so be sure to bring a camera!
The Villa itself was nothing short of perfect for our family of 4. The layout was ideal and allowed us to enjoy some downtime between all of the outdoor activities. We were able to grill meals and enjoy the view of the golf course during the day and the beautiful stars at night. Our girls had their own room and enjoyed some downtime together while my husband and I played some cards on the patio off the master suite. Just the right size to give everyone their own space but still be together. The pool at the Fairways is very nice and beautiful - we actually visited it several times during our stay. And, everyone we encountered was so friendly. As we were departing, the grounds keeper asked if we were returning and urged us to booking again for next year.
When we return to Kona (and we will!), this will the the only place we look at too stay. Mahalo for the amazing experience!!
Great place. Very quiet
The place is very nice and up to date. It is very quiet and relaxing and the beaches around there are great and it sits on an amazing golf course. Highly recommended
Great Location to Mauni Lani and Orchid Hotels
Property was a good location to the two major hotels if you are attending a conference at either resort.
29 days of paradise....
We were lucky enough to stay in Hawaii for 29 days and all spent at the Dancing Dolphins. Elena went out of her way to help us with a few issues we had during our stay and as she says "all you need to do is make sure she is aware of the issues and they will be resolved" The unit was great for our needs, close to the beach, close to golf, close to groceries and fine dining, it has it all. March 2017, The Girling's - Vancouver, Canada
Winner
I was a little concerned as the average price on this property was a little below similar properties at the coast - but no need for concern. I appreciated the split-level design, with a lanai with fantastic grill opening to a small patch of lawn and a very pleasant and private golf course view; and upstairs devoted to sleep. Everything was clean and well-stocked. The location is quite good - the outer condo means privacy, but the pool is still close; both the Fairmont and Mauna Lani are quite close; and shopping is around the corner. We had a very sweet time there, and would go back.
Such a disappointment dealing with the owner & saw cockroaches everyday in the kitchen
The location is perfect for a Hawaiian get-a-way! The condo had everything except they only leave one waste can liner for the kitchen garbage, so we ran out pretty quick after a week's stay. Seeing cockroaches everyday in the kitchen was disgusting, but we found spray under the kitchen sink, so they must have known there was a problem. When we found the bugs in the dishwasher that was not pleasant. This condo has bikes, but you have to rent them, which I have never done on a VRBO rental before. Generally everything is included, but not here. The resort lends itself to riding bikes, so it's a good consideration. We did not know how much we would have loved to rent the bikes until we got there and checked it all out. It would have been nice to know that ahead of time. We asked to rent the bikes once we arrived, but the owner would only use PayPal - sadly I did not have an account, so no bike rental for us....bummer! We had some friends join us at the last minute, the owner wanted to charge us $15 per person per day to have them stay, which was weird since on the VRBO site it is listed as $12 per person per day. We had other friends staying close so they left after one night. It was really strange but it seemed like people were entering the condo while we were out during the day. One day we noticed some things out of place, so we purposefully put something in front of the door and sure enough the next day it was moved. That was a little creepy, but none of our personal belongings were taken. Maybe the maid came back for something - who knows. We were disappointed with the owner because she made us feel like we were doing something wrong by renting her house. We met tons of folks at the pool who also use VRBO and they gave us some good contacts for other condos. We will definitely be back....just to a different condo.
