Kona Bay Estates Hale Kai Olu Description
Peaceful, private, and truly special, Hale Kai Olu is a custom-built oceanfront home in Kailua-Kona that feels like a real home—not a resort. Set within a gated oceanfront community with 24-hour security, this well-loved property offers generous space, direct shoreline access, and sweeping ocean views toward Kona Village.
While the community itself is gated, beaches in Hawaiʻi are public by law. Guests enjoy easy access to the shoreline and can walk along the coast while still benefiting from the privacy, security, and quiet atmosphere of this unique neighborhood.
The true value of Hale Kai Olu lies in its unbeatable oceanfront location, spacious layout, and serene surroundings. It’s an ideal choice for guests looking for an authentic Hawaiʻi experience—one rooted in comfort, character, and a deep connection to the ocean rather than a modern resort-style stay.
This home has been cherished by the same family for many years and was where the owners raised their children. Designed by an architect known for capturing the island’s natural trade winds, the home stays comfortable most of the year with only rare need for air conditioning. These walls have seen laughter, celebrations, and countless sunsets, and now the home is ready to welcome guests to create their own memories. It is warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed, offering timeless island charm and a relaxed sense of place.
