'hale Kai' - Ocean Front Retreat - Quadra de Tênis e Piscina Privada

Enjoy everything Hawaii has to offer in a very private three-acre estate on the shore of historic Keauhou Bay, six miles south of Kailua Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. Called “Hale Kai” (house by the sea), you will be surrounded by lawns and lush tropical gardens with old-growth trees. The home was designed by noted architect Vladimir Ossipoff, and built in 1955 for State Sen. “Doc” Hill.

The main residence includes a spacious open air living room, a fully equipped kitchen, office and a generous master suite. An outside lanai dining area seats 10 to 12 people. 30 coconut palms line the bay front. A private dock allows easy access into the warm bay waters with tropical fish and occasional turtles. A separate building ("pool house”), fronts a beautiful tile swimming pool and contains a king-size bed and bath. An additional building in the garden area contains two separate bedrooms and baths, each with a queen-size bed and a single. 10 guests can be accommodated in the bedrooms. Each bedroom has air conditioning. The office also has two single beds, but no air conditioning. There are beds for 12 people in total.

A private tennis court is a primary attraction, along with a swimming pool. Paddle boards and kayaks can be arranged and launched directly from our dock. The 18-hole Kona Country Club golf course is open to the public and is a five minute drive away. Keauhou Bay is noted for the population of manta rays at its mouth. Dive boats pass our dock every evening taking people out to watch these beautiful creatures.

There is a full-time caretaker couple who live in home at the entrance to the property. They provide daily landscape pickup, safety and security. They have lived in Hawaii for many years and provide assistance for our guests. We have owned the property for 14 years and our family visits about 150 days a year, leaving 200 days available for guests. Most of our guests repeat their visits every year or two. There is an excellent grocery store, restaurants and shops about a half-mile away. If you want privacy, seclusion and a beautiful setting Hale Kai is a great solution. Most frequently our guests are multigenerational families.

Our property is not available for weddings or events. No commercial filming or photography allowed.
