Upgrade your Vacation at our Magic Sands Beach House! Best Location, Lifestyle & Amenities! Maximizing Kona's beaches & weather, this open & airy retreat will immediately put you in Vacation Mode. Fall asleep to the sound of waves crashing on the shore and wake to the sound of tropical birds. Watch the sun set from the ocean view deck, or from Magic Sands Beachonly blocks away. Enjoy a view of the foothills of Hualalai volcano from the kitchen and ocean views from the Living Areas & lanai that runs the length of the house. The bedrooms and living room all face west with large pocket doors that fully retract so the rooms spill out onto the lanai. All doors are also equipped with sliding screens to keep bugs out in the evening. With a tree-house feel and open floor plan filled with natural light & offering breezy indoor/outdoor flow, this is an ideal property for those that want ample space to spread out and relax. The beautifully landscaped and fenced backyard has a lawn and includes an outdoor sauna, and gear rack with beach equipment.

LOCATION: The White Sands Estates is loved by locals because (1) you simply can't get any closer to Magic Sands beach, and (2) downtown is only a few miles away. Homes in this neighborhood are close to other houses, so please be mindful of noise at night. Magic Sands Beach is 4 blocks from the front door. Kahalu’u Beach Park (less than a mile away) is a great spot for surfing, snorkeling, and picnics. The park has a parking lot, bathrooms, bbq area, beach lifeguard and rinse area. Kahalu’u Bay Surf and Sea, our neighborhood rental center, offers surfing, stand-up-paddle boards, kayaks, snorkeling and other gear rentals ... pretty much everything you may want is conveniently located across from Kahalu'u Bay. When you are ready, a 5 mile drive along beautiful Alii Drive lands you smack in the middle of Downtown Kona's action.

FUNCTIONALITY OF THE HOUSE: This is an ideal property for couples or families. There are 2 bedrooms, 2 baths total. The queen-size pull-out couch in living room can also sleep 2 comfortably if needed. We provide snorkel gear, boogie boards, surfboard, and cooler.

We reserve the right to decline booking requests from guests with children between the ages of 1-5 or guests, or with fewer than 4 star reviews; please inquire for possible exceptions).

MORE DETAILS: High ceilings, fans and open-air cooling provides an eco-sensitive alternative to traditional AC (No Central Air... but a cross-breeze typically keeps the house a comfortable temp!). To air the house: 1. Turn on all the fans, 2. open all the sliding doors (and/or screens), and windows, 3. Open the balcony door to the kitchen to create a nice cross breeze (we typically leave all the doors open with the screens closed). 4. In addition, each room has a portable tower fan that can be positioned as needed.

Ditch your car keys and skip the parking hassles, traffic and noise of downtown -- you can easily walk/bike anywhere from here. Bike Share bikes are available right across the street from the beach at Magic Sands (The Hele-on-bus also stops at Magic Sands. Rideshare apps are under $10 for such a short distance.

We are walking distance to the beach and two blocks away from the Ironman course, but also have easy access to the upper highway when Ali'i Drive is busy.
