Tranquil Island Escape at Kehena Beach
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
A tranquil and tropical retreat awaits at this stylish two-bedroom, two-bath home, boasting a prime location in Kehena Beach Estates, just a short stroll to the sand and surf. Highlights of this serene getaway include a sleek kitchen, modern furnishings and decor throughout, and a covered lanai with alfresco dining and a lounge area ideal for outdoor entertaining. Walk to Kehena Black Sand Beach for blissful days along this beautiful stretch of coast. Venture to Pahoa or Hilo for dining, shopping, and entertainment options. Take a day trip to Hawaii Volcano National Park. A stylish sofa with a chaise and three armchairs set the scene for relaxation in the living area. In the evening, settle in to stream your favorite shows on the smart TV. Let your culinary skills shine in the sleek kitchen, equipped with granite countertops, gorgeous natural woods, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances. While dinner simmers, perch at the island bar with seating for two. When it’s time to eat, gather for fresh meals around the four-person dining table.
This single-level home sleeps four guests in two bedrooms, each equipped with a smart TV. Find comfort and privacy in the master suite, complete with a stately king bed, direct lanai access, and an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower. A plush queen bed awaits in the second bedroom. The guest bathroom is configured with a tub/shower combination. Start the day with fresh Kona coffee and enticing tropical aromas on the covered lanai, featuring a love seat and two cushioned armchairs. In the evening, sizzle fresh fish and veggies on the gas grill, then dine alfresco at the outdoor table for six. Extra perks include complimentary WiFi and a washer/dryer. Beach chairs/toys are provided in the rental. Stroll 10 minutes to the exotic Kehena Black Sand Beach. Spend sun-kissed days lounging beneath the palms on the gorgeous ebony sand or attend the weekly drumming circle. (Swimming is not advised during heavy surf.)
Drive 13 miles to downtown Pahoa for a selection of eateries and shops. Head 31 miles to Hilo to find a host of dining, shopping, and entertainment options, as well as access to tranquil swimming lagoons. While there, check out the Panaewa Rainforest Zoo, the only natural tropical rainforest zoo in the country. Visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (45 miles) to view otherworldly topography.
