The host was very welcoming, the amenities were great! The views of the home were breath taking. Hearing the ocean all throughout the day was so relaxing. We had a slight issue with the hot water that they addressed right away. The house was very clean and ready. The kids had a blast in the pool and walking down to the water.

The setting is perfect and the property is truly beautiful. Host/Owner was very gracious, outfitting the property with everything the family needed for the beach, Yoga and relaxing in the sun. Household staff were available quickly to help with uncertainties about how to operate some appliances. The layout is pure Hawaii, with four separate sleeping quarters, a beautiful and functional open air common area and natural wood embellishments.

Wow!! Family&work family Spring break

The property is beautiful. It is easily the best VRBO I have EVER stayed in. The location is super convenient to beaches, shopping and the airport, but it is such a special property you might never want to leave it. You’ll enjoy falling asleep to the sound of the ocean, enjoy panoramic views and tide pools at the surf’s edge. Property Manager was responsive, and accommodating during our stay. Bottom line is that…. This property easily surpassed our expectations! If you get an opportunity to stay here you SHOULD!

The house was awesome. Great location. Has four separate bedroom areas connected to central courtyard. Could spend as much time as you want to together or can get away if needed.We spent a lot of our week just hanging out outside at the pool because the pictures are very accurate. Great indoor/outdoor living. Only thing missing was a cocktail waiter/waitress and who knows could probably be arranged.The owner was very responsive to any questions we had prior to visit and concierge person, Nathalie helped us book activities. Nathalie also responded extremely quickly to any questions we had about how to use a hot tub or little details about the house.Hope to be able to go back soon.

This was our second stay at this gorgeous property and we will definitely be back again - it truly reflects the Aloha spirit in every way. The energy and beauty of every facet of this home is beyond compare: location, views, privacy, nature, luxury accommodations and amenities, well stocked, comfortable beds, exquisite and thoughtful architecture, wonderful pool and spa, excellent for whale and dolphin watching, amazing sunsets and star gazing. The owner and property manager are very responsive and are immediately available for any questions or support. We could not recommend Hale Ohia and Yarden's exquisite sanctuary and home more highly.

Wonderful holiday in a beautiful home

Our family had a wonderful holiday at this beautiful property. The home is beautiful with lots of space and a unique design with great use of local wood and materials. It feels very warm and welcoming. Each of the bedrooms have their own ensuite bathrooms with showers/tubs. The main bedroom and bath were enormous. The view is amazing and the pool was great for cooling off from the heat. The kitchen was very well stocked with plenty of dishes and cookware. We really made good use of the rice cooker! We also appreciated all the extras that were provided (salt, pepper, sugar, oil, spices) Thank you so much for the arrival goodie basket! We especially appreciated the location being so close to one of the checkpoints for the Ironman race. We were able to just walk to the road and cheer on the competitors and then go back home to cool off in the pool! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home. Our family enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Yarden Dankner

Host profile image
I love hosting and sharing the unique experience that Hale Ohia Kai offers. Creating a space where guests can relax, connect, and enjoy the beauty and peace of the oceanfront setting is very important to me, and I’m always happy to help make each stay memorable.

Why they chose this property

We chose this location on Ali’i Drive for its rare combination of true oceanfront living and convenience. Being just steps from the Pacific, the setting feels immersive and peaceful, with the constant sound of the waves and panoramic views of Holualoa Bay.

At the same time, it’s ideally situated—just a short walk to Magic Sands Beach and only minutes from downtown Kona, restaurants, and shops. You get the best of both worlds: privacy and seclusion, yet close to everything.

What we enjoy most is the ever-changing ocean—dolphins in the morning, outrigger paddlers passing by, and unforgettable sunsets each evening. It’s a place where guests can truly relax, reconnect, and experience the natural beauty of Hawai‘i.

What makes this property unique

Hale Ohia Kai stands out for its rare combination of true oceanfront location, privacy, and thoughtful design. Just steps from the Pacific, the home offers unobstructed views of Holualoa Bay, where guests can enjoy dolphins at sunrise and sunsets from the infinity pool each evening.

The estate is uniquely designed as a private compound, with a main house and three separate guest suites arranged around a shared oceanfront deck. This layout provides both connection and privacy—ideal for families or groups traveling together.

Crafted with locally sourced Ohia wood and designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home blends natural beauty with comfort and elegance. Being able to walk to Magic Sands Beach while still feeling secluded makes this a truly special and uncommon offering on the Kona coast.
