Vacation Rental Description

Hale Kakahi is your vision of the ultimate Hawaiian retreat. In Hawaiian, it means “unique, 
outstanding, one-of-a-kind house,” a perfect name for this oceanfront estate. It was 
formerly the home of the owners of a popular Hawaii vacation rental service, who 
recognized that the property was so special it should be shared with visitors. All their 
experience delighting visitors for 20 years went into making Hale Kakahi an experience 
you will never forget!

Entering the Hale Kakahi grounds, you travel down a long drive surrounded by plumeria, 
monkeypod, banana, and palm trees until you reach the elegant two-story home. The 
front door opens to the foyer and Great Room, where you are overwhelmed by the 
spectacular ocean view through floor-to-ceiling windows and across a broad lanai that 
extends across the entire front of the house. The interior is a wood-lover’s dream, with 
floors, walls, ceilings, counters and cabinets built from nine exotic woods including koa, 
mango, Spanish cedar and purple heart.

Besides the great view, the Great Room offers a comfortable place to visit and relax, with 
good reading lights and a TV/DVD for evening entertainment. For meals, you’ll find a 
gourmet kitchen with a Sub-Zero refrigerator and other premium appliances including 
two convection ovens. The cooktop/breakfast bar countertop is made from a single 
gorgeous piece of monkeypod wood. You’ll eat many meals on the lanai, but for indoor 
dining the travertine marble table in the dining area seats six.

A small office off the Great Room (with telephone, high-speed Internet, and of course 
more great views) leads to the air-conditioned master bedroom. With a room like this, you 
won’t want to get out of bed! The bed is a California king with a high-quality pillow-top 
mattress, and the room also has its own TV, DVD player, and sound system. The bedroom 
has an en suite bath with a walk-in shower, Jacuzzi bathtub/spa, and double vanity. An 
estate wouldn’t be complete without a pool and the 30-foot lap pool is just outside the 
master bedroom.

But wait, there’s more! That was just the upper level! Two oceanfront suites on the lower 
level provide accommodations for up to four more guests. The Akahi Suite consists of a 
bedroom, sitting room, and private bath. The bedroom has a firm king bed. The sitting 
room is equipped with conveniences including a TV, radio/CD, coffee-maker, mini-
refrigerator and microwave. Both rooms have ocean views and the full bath has a tub 
shower. The smaller Elua Suite has the same great ocean view as the Akahi Suite, with a 
queen bed and a full bath with stall shower. Guests in the Akahi and Elua Suites can enjoy 
their morning coffee on the private lower-level lanai.

The nearly 3-acre Hale Kakahi estate includes a diverse mix of lush vegetation, manicured 
lawns, exotic fruit trees, koi ponds, fountains, palm trees, magnificent lava oceanfront — 
even a 50-yard golf tee and green! In season, whales pass by and play in the surf just 
offshore. The estate is near the quiet residential area of Hawaiian Beaches, which is great 
for walking. The town of Pahoa with several restaurants and interesting shops is less than 
15 minutes by car. Hilo is about a 30-minute drive, and Volcanoes National Park is less 
than an hour away.
