The Drive:
A scenic drive on the highway along the dramatic coastline takes you past Kailua-Kona, to history-rich Keauhou, Kealakekua, Captain Cook, and Honaunau, through the Big Island’s fertile agricultural region, where coffee grows alongside macadamia, cacao, vanilla beans, avocado, and an endless feast of tree-ripened fruit.

The Home:
Enter the home and you will notice it was designed to capture every breeze. The spacious living area is equipped with a flat screen TV, media player, WiFi, games, guidebooks, and leisure reading. Comfortable furniture invites you to relax under the cathedral ceiling supported by solid ohia logs.

The airy primary bedroom features a king size bed made of local ohia wood and has a separate walk-in closet, primary bath, and a private lanai. The guest bedroom has a queen bed, separate full bath and a lanai of its own. The large kitchen is equipped with everything to make enjoyable meals from scratch.

The Location:

The steep hillside is caressed by ocean breezes and incredible views of old lava flows and crystal waters. A swim in the ocean is just 150 yards away. Look for turtles or even a monk seal resting on the beautiful black lava pebble beach. Enjoy sitting on the shaded lanai while you watch the tropical sunset or look for breaching whales.

Kaohe Bay is well known for scenic snorkeling – you will find snorkel gear, water toys, beach furniture, umbrella and cooler to enjoy during your visit.

Ho’okena Beach Park and Milolii Beach Park are nearby. Grab a quick bite or a freshly brewed cup of 100% Kona coffee at Menehune Coffee. Don’t miss Pu’uhonua O Honaunau (Place of Refuge) and allow a day to visit Volcanoes National Park.

Kona Paradise is a quiet neighborhood, 45 minutes south of Kailua Kona. For this reason, we believe a rental car is necessary to best experience all that the island has to offer.

We provide complimentary starter essentials including paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, laundry detergent, hand soap, and trash bags.

Receive peace-of-mind knowing that if something does go wrong, one of our friendly and professional staff members is only a phone call away. With a warm “Aloha”, we at First Island Realty look forward to welcoming you to your tropical getaway!
