About this property

Kahaluu Bay Across from Snorkel Beach - Awesome Ocean View

Ideally located just across the beach from Kahalu'u Beach Park. This is a great place to stay if you like to snorkel, surf and swim. If not, it is close to everything else.

Easily accessible, convenient and with good under water scenery, Kahalu'u Bay is the most user friendly Snorkel Beach on the island. Unit is large and has had recent upgrades.

The pool and BBQ overlooking the bay make a great spot to relax and congregate after a day of exploring and shopping!

And don't forget the awesome view

We had a fantastic time and wish we would have booked more days here. The hosts Duane and Cherie were so helpful and accomadating to our needs.We love that the kitchen was so well stocked, including spices and ziploc bags. The view was so beautiful and watching surfers was very entertaining. Our breakfast routine included watching dolphins and we even saw a late season whale spout. The condo was beautifully decorated and it felt like a home, so relaxing! Don't bother bringing snorkel gear or beach gear, its all there! The pool area and BBQ was lovely, sunsets are not to be missed!

Wonderful Stay -- We Didn't Want to Leave!

We loved our stay at this property — the location was perfect and it had everything we needed for an incredible vacation. We especially appreciated all the beach gear provided, which made it so easy to snorkel at one of the best snorkeling beaches in Hawaii. And the view was incredible. Our only complaint is that our stay was too short! We can’t wait to come back.

About the host

Hosted by Duane and Cheri Severson

Host profile image

We have been to every Island many times but we decided to buy here on the Big Island. We have enjoyed our place and try to visit as many times as possible. We hope you enjoy it as much as we have.

Why they chose this property

We love the beautiful location. Right across from the best Snorkel Beach at Kahaluu bay. We have a great view of the bay and the surfers. During the winter season we can see the whales breaching. We added a spotting scope to see them even better.

What makes this property unique

We have snorkel gear and a surf board. All you have to do is walk across the street. We have beach chairs, towels and ice chest if you don't want to get in the warm tropical water.

They consistently provide great experiences for their guests
