Luxury Kona Retreat with Private Pool, 180-Degree Ocean View & 7 mins to Beach

Welcome to Kona Phil's home!

Escape to your Big Island ocean-view retreat, where comfort, style, and tropical serenity come together. This spacious single-level home features a rare central atrium, filling the interior with natural light and lush greenery, creating a calming indoor–outdoor ambiance from the moment you arrive.

Enjoy sweeping 180° ocean views from the pool, patio, living room, dining area, kitchen, and select bedrooms. Whether you're sipping morning coffee, working remotely, lounging by the pool, or watching the sun melt into the horizon, every moment is elevated by the surrounding beauty.

The open-concept layout flows naturally around the atrium and into a modern, fully equipped chef’s kitchen, ideal for preparing meals or entertaining. Relax in the airy living spaces, cool off with A/C throughout, or step out onto the lanai for warm breezes and island sunsets.

Perfect for families, groups, or remote workers, this home includes a dedicated office with an adjustable desk and ergonomic chair — a rare find in Hawaii vacation rentals.

Step outside for the highlight of the home: a private pool with full ocean views. Sunbathe on the patio, enjoy evening swims, or choose the heated pool option for cooler mornings and nights ($50/day).

Clean, pool was great, beautiful location and the view is marvelous. Kinda looks like the inside is going thru a bit of a remodel. Some lights aren't working and burners on the stove aren't all working. Water pressure in the ohana is slow. Paint in the primary is peeling off the walls and door. A few other minor things, but overall, a great experience!

We stayed a week the sunsets were beautiful from the lanai/pool could not ask for better. Everything was easy to use and had good beach gear! We loved our time and the pool was amazing for our group.

The house was well appointed and had most everything we needed. The space was plentiful and the beds were comfy. The kids loved the den bedroom space! It was great to keep them all in there with the bunkbeds and access to the outside.The location was super easy to get to, within a short distance of the airport, and in a quieter neighborhood.The pool was great too and well used by everyone. Not too big but enough space to frolic. And avoiding the pool cleaner robot - who we named Scooter - wasn't hard.The inside of the house does need some maintenance, but didn't make the stay unpleasant. Things like scuffed up walls and some of the fan/lights tripped a breaker a couple of times. And the fridge had broken before we arrived. They had a temporary replacement, but it would have been nice to have a heads up prior to arriving. However they were very responsive to other communications and requests, like providing more propane.All in all, we would stay again if we needed a space for 12 people.
