5 ★ Nakukui Hale: Waterfall Pool, Spa, Gazebo & Ocean Views, Gated Kona Retreat

Welcome to Nakukui Hale, your own private Hawaiian sanctuary — a beautifully designed estate for up to 8 guests in a gated community. A resort-style waterfall spills over lava rock into a deep blue-tiled heated pool. Wander the lush landscape, listen to colorful birds sing, and unwind in the elevated private gazebo as the sun sets over the Pacific. Just minutes from Ali'i Drive, Magic Sands Beach, Ironman Pier and the best restaurants in Kona town. This is Hawaii living at its absolutefinest.

Designed by acclaimed interior designer Somerled Designs, the Nakukui Home sits on a single level surrounded by lush tropical lawns in the exclusive Kahakai Heights community.

The resort-style backyard is the heart of the home — a waterfall cascades over black lava rock into a deep blue-tiled heated pool, while a separate spa sits tucked among lush green foliage, alive with birdsong. Dine al fresco at the outdoor BBQ, or simply lounge on the lanai as the palms rustle overhead.

Inside, the fully equipped chef's kitchen features premium All-Clad cookware, Keurig, Instant Pot, and a fresh bag of local Kona coffee waiting for you. The spacious living room centers around a 65 Samsung Smart TV with Netflix, and blazing 1 Gig fiber WiFi keeps everyone connected throughout. Central A/C keeps every room perfectly cool on warm Hawaiian nights.

Sleeping arrangements: King in the master suite with ocean view and walk-in closet, two Queens in the second bedroom, and a King in the third — all dressed in luxury linens.

Everything you need for the beach is already packed — chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear in all sizes, sand toys, a cooler bag and a wagon to carry it all. Traveling with a baby A crib, pack n' play, baby bathtub, night pads, and high chair are all on hand. Workout weights, yoga mats, and hairdryer round out the rest.

The community's private streets offer stunning Pacific Ocean views on every morning walk or evening stroll — and a beautiful 3-acre park is just steps away for a lazy afternoon game of frisbee.

This home warmly welcomes registered guests only (max 8). External visitors and events are not permitted per our hosting permit. Noise sensors and exterior cameras help us keep the community peaceful for everyone. Pool and spa use is at your own risk — please supervise little ones at all times.
