Welcome to our professionally designed tropical oasis on the Kona Coast, located on Ali’i drive. Get away from the more populated islands and enjoy true relaxation on the Big Island. This home is the ideal staging point to explore all of the hidden wonders of Hawaii.
You will be tempted to stay and enjoy the beautiful décor, but if you spend all day inside you are doing Hawaii wrong. Get outside, get tan and make some memories!
You will find the check-in process easy with smart locks and a custom code. As you open the door you will enter a modern living room with vibrant splashes of tropical green. A Roku enabled television has been provided so that you can log in to all of your favorite streaming services and enjoy entertainment between beach trips. You will find the couch folds into a twin size bed.
To your right, enter through the sleek sliding door into the dedicated work space. If you are going to be stuck on a computer in paradise we wanted to make sure you at least had an unobstructed view of the mountain. Crank open the window and catch the ocean breeze as you bask in the tropical colors and sounds.
Behind you is a sleeping area perfect for enjoying sunrises and listening to the calls of the exotic birds singing in the morning.
As you return to the main living area make sure you notice the beautiful mid century modern dining set that overlooks the community garden. If you are lucky you might catch a glimpse of Geckos as they scurry in the foliage.
While exploring the kitchen you will catch glimpses of the ocean and maybe even hear the crashes of the waves. The door leads to your private lanai with lounge chairs and peek-a-boo views of the ocean. Make sure you open the deck box and inspect the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, boogie boards and snorkel gear that will make trips to the beach stress free, active and full of memories.
Returning inside, you will notice the stocked bathroom including towels for all of your party, body wash, shampoo, conditioner and hair dryer.
Finally you are in the bedroom. The space has been tastefully decorated continuing the jungle theme and including a full length mirror and California King bed. The plane might have been cramped but you can spread out here! Above the bed is a window A/C unit that you can use if the ocean breeze and ceiling fans are not keeping the space comfortable for you. The closet holds all of the sheets needed for the pull out bed as well as a pack and play and folding high chair for the little one. Now that you have established your home base, go out and explore all that Hawaii has to offer.
You will have full access to the assigned parking spot, condominium unit and private lanai with the exception of the cabinet labeled "Host's Cabinet".

Things to know
While the complex is ocean front, our unit only has peekaboo views of the ocean. Please keep this in mind while anticipating your trip.
Most Hawai’i homes do not have air conditioning and the bedroom window unit will not cool the entire condo. Opening the windows and running fans is both effective and ecofriendly.
Our unit faces Ali’i drive. There will be traffic noises from the street side of the unit. Please be aware.
We are on the second floor. Stairs are used to access the unit. No elevator is available.
There is a single community pool with no hot tub. The pool is wonderfully maintained with gorgeous views.
Some neighboring units allow smoking. We do not. Occasionally you may smell some of the odor during your stay.
