About This Home
There are homes that remind you you're in Hawaii...and then there are homes that make you wonder why you'd ever be anywhere else. In Kona Bay Estates, the rhythm of the day is set by the ocean. Morning coffee comes slowly with birds singing, then moves into a balmy day with a walk on the beach, an ocean swim, a bike ride around town or a book beside the spa. Evenings end with spectacular sunsets, the sound of surf, & one more conversation on the lanai, under endless stars, before calling it a night. Beautifully updated & impeccably maintained, this Kona Coast retreat was designed for effortless island living. Soaring ceilings & abundant natural light create an open, welcoming feel, while lush tropical landscaping & swaying palms blur the line between indoors & out. Improvements include new tile flooring & shower tile in the upstairs bath, refreshed interior paint, enhanced landscaping, & new glass in windows & sliders. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with a KitchenAid gas range & dishwasher. A new bar refrigerator, stylish furnishings, fully owned photovoltaic AND solar hot water systems, & an electric vehicle charger complete a home that's as practical as it is beautiful. Keiki Beach, the neighborhood's white sand beach, is a short stroll away, to enjoy snorkeling, whale-watching, or to simply wander down to catch another sunset & some sand between your toes. It's the kind of neighborhood where flip-flops are the preferred footwear and every day feels a little less hurried. Tucked inside one of Kona's most sought-after gated oceanfront communities with 24-hour security, you're minutes from Kona Town, Kailua Pier, dining, & shopping. While the home has also earned an exceptional reputation as a successful 5-star licensed short-term vacation rental with more than 80 glowing reviews, it's the lifestyle we all dream of that leaves the lasting impression.
