A Whale Crossing Vacation Rental North Shore, Big Island
A Whale Crossing Vacation Rental is tucked away in the serene North Kohala region, near Upolu Point on the northwest tip of the Big Island. This charming, secluded getaway offers a peaceful and intimate setting, perfect for those looking to experience the natural beauty of Hawaii.
The cozy Tiki Hut is a romantic escape for two, featuring a king-sized bed, settee, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and a CD/radio player. The fully-equipped kitchenette includes a double sink, two-burner stove with oven, full-size refrigerator, microwave, toaster, blender, coffee maker, and all the pots, pans, and dishes you’ll need to feel at home. Enjoy meals on the deck, relax in the yard with lounge chairs, or fire up the BBQ for a casual dinner.
The Tiki Hut offers stunning sunsets and the occasional mystical moonbow. From your private lanai, you’ll also have the incredible opportunity to witness humpback whales jumping and singing during the winter months (November - April). The bathhouse features an old-fashioned clawfoot tub and a tropical garden shower provides a unique and refreshing way to enjoy the outdoors.
Hiking trails abound, and the property is just a short walk to both the ocean and historical sites, including King Kamehameha's birthplace and the ancient Mo'okini Heiau.
While secluded, Awhalecrossing Cabin is conveniently located just 1 mile off Akoni Pule Highway. The charming towns of Hawi and Kapaau are only minutes away, where you'll find dining, galleries, and unique shopping experiences. The world-renowned beaches and resorts of the Gold Coast, including Hapuna and Mauna Kea—regularly ranked among the top 10 beaches in the world—are just a 20-minute drive away. Kona International Airport is 50 minutes by car.
Our "Special Rustic Hawaiian Experience" has been a beloved part of our family for nearly 45 years. With the company of our 2 Golden Retrievers and 2 Golden Doodles, we invite you to experience the magic of our island paradise.
Whether you're looking for adventure or simply a place to relax and reconnect with nature, A Whale Crossing Tiki Hut offers a truly special Hawaiian experience.
Come for the views, stay for the memories. Mahalo, Linda & Marty

Country retreat
We had a peaceful stay in the tiki hut. We could eat breakfast on the patio and watch whales. The sky was full of stars at night and we could leave the patio slider open for airflow all night. This is a great place we'd recommend for a couple wanting a country retreat.

We stayed in the Tiki Hut on the property (there is also a separate guest house). Location is amazing. There is stupendous unobstructed broad ocean view straight to Maui on clear days with fantastic sunsets (right from our bed). It is 10 minute (easy) drive to Hawi where there is food, ice cream, and a market. Nearby restaurant choices (within 20 mins) are limited as this is a rural area. There is a rocky beach (too rough for swimming) just a short walk down the country road and an archaeologic site 2mi down the Ali Kahaki coastal trail. Linens, bed, bathroom very comfortable and private, quite well done. Setting is so charming. We personally loved the open air design (some windows cannot close- have only screens). Kitchen well-stocked for basic meals. Note that stove/ oven are limited in size/ output, and (as our hostess mentioned) this is the country and you will see critters. We loved it! Extremely relaxing, away from it all, perfect place to watch the sun setting over the ocean.

Had a great weekend at A Whale Crossing. Rented the smaller beach shack for a friend and me, and was delighted with the accommodations. Great large yard, easy walk to a lava rock shoreline, wonderful outdoor shower and bath house. Would definitely come back again.

Beautiful
We stayed 2 nights, and it was extremely peaceful. The main thing to do at the Whale Crossing is to enjoy nature, the birds, the view of the ocean, the quiet and calm. We went into Hawi and hiked one day, then brought dinner home each night from a restaurant in town to enjoy on the little deck. This place is definitely not fancy at all, but the view and serenity are unlike any you will find in Kona.

Perfect Stay in the Perfect Place
Like old Hawaii! Beautiful tiki cottage tucked into a tropical paradise with a 360 degree view of the ocean and Maui beyond. We enjoyed the coastal hike (right next to the property) to historical landmarks while we watched whales breaching off the shore. Great proximity to Hawi, etc in the fantastic North Kohala area.
We Loved everything about the place including the sweet and friendly dogs. Linda and Marty were so friendly and perfect hosts. 5 star all the way*****

Remote and relaxing!
If you want a true island experience - stay here! From the amazing view, to the open floorplan to the outside shower (don't panic, there is an inside one too) - this was a relaxing getaway. You are close to a few small towns that have stores and restaurants, but far enough away to have some solitude. All you needs are covered with supplies, amenities and even lots of beach equipment to use! Linda is an amazing host and very kind. We hope to come back soon!

Extraordinary place to just, Be.
We booked 3 nights here to begin a 3 week vacation in the islands. It was great and we wish we had booked the whole first week here. Sleeping to the nature sounds, deep quiet too and then waking to the expansive view! We were able to exhale from our great but very active lives- to reset. Will come back just for the outdoor shower alone and stars alone. All the reviews are true - oh and thanks for the binoculars too.

This was our second stay at the Whale Crossing! Our stays were a few years apart. It was as beautiful as we remembered. We were treated to the wonders of the whales breaching time and time again. Its like being on your own island on the island! If you want total relaxation and seclusion, this is your calling card. Linda and Marty are simply the best hosts. We can't thank them enough for our adventures there. This is a must vacation cottage.

Views, Whales, Solitude
If you're looking for a real Hawaii experience away from the crowds and tourist areas, A Whale Crossing is for you. The accommodations are a little tight and the kitchen is basic, but it's actually very comfortable. The bath cabana is great and the outside shower was hot. The views from the deck were amazing and just below there's plenty of room to play fetch with the dogs on the extensive lawn area. Linda was a wonderful host. If you love the 4 Seasons or Mani Lani you probably wouldn't be searching VRBO for a unique, out of the way place to stay, so take a chance - you won't be disappointed.

My favorite stay in Hawaii
First off, this isn’t your classic vacation rental. It is the cutest tiki hut with a separate bathroom building. No AC but not it’s not really necessary with the ocean breeze , ceiling fan and screens all the way around. Beautiful decorated. Owner even provided robes and sleep masks! We loved waking up to the ocean view visible right from the bed. Would stay here again in a heartbeat! Owners dogs were a bonus! They were friendly but not intrusive.

A Slice of Heaven
If I was to ever move to Hawaii, Linda’s little place is the type of house I would want. It is scenic, rural, rustic and peaceful. What it is not, is a sterile, spotless hotel. My husband and I have been to the island many times but we wanted to explore the Kohola area. This house was the perfect home base. We enjoyed great hiking, snorkeling, beaching and marine life watching which was all in a few miles. Hawi is a great little village with nice shops and good restaurants. So if you want to have an experience where you live more like a local and experience a more rustic life, please rent this little slice of heaven.

Breathtaking and Special
My heart skipped a beat when I pulled up to this place. This is a one of a kind location on the northwest tip of the big island with a view that will take your breath away. If you can handle the rustic, slightly janky cottage (I found it to be perfect) and don't mind visits and very occasional barking from four extremely welcoming dogs then you, like me, will have found a glimpse into paradise. I'll be back. Hopefully many times.

Sobre o anfitrião
Anfitrião: Linda Halbritter
Aloha 🌺 My husband, Marty, and I have lived here 40+ years. We are so lucky! A Whale Crossing Vacation Rental is a 'Special Place'. We call it a Hawaiian Experience... come visit and see the whales (Nov - Apr). We look forward to meeting you.
Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade
It's the best.. very private in the countryside. Awesome ocean and sunset views. You can see Maui and enjoy stargazing under our dark skies. It's a Hawaiian Experience...
O que faz essa propriedade ser única?
Very Historical... Walking distance to the ocean. Awesome Views!! Surrounded by 850 acres of Bishop Estate pasture land. Very Private... Whales give birth in the bay in front of our property.... Very Cool!! Some times the whales will wake us up at night flapping their tail and with their song. We have boogie boards, snorkel gear, beach chairs and even suntan lotion so come play.
