Our local property manager is available to you 24/7 for any needs that might arise.
Located in the privately gated Kohala Waterfront, you are so close to the ocean that during whale season you not only see them, but can also hear them! The house was remodeled in 2019 and is inside/outside living at its finest. Designer-decorated inside and out, you will be sure to love the fun and comfortable vibe of the WHALE TALE HALE. The beautiful furnishings, original artwork and all modern appointments set this house apart from others like it.
Upon entering the house, enjoy your very own Steinway piano along with guitars, ukuleles, bongos and more fun musical instruments for the whole gang to have a jam session.
The spacious master bedroom suite has over 180 degrees of ocean views which opens out onto the pool lanai as well as a private lanai with 2 hanging chairs to sit and watch amazing sunsets. This beautiful spa-like master bedroom features a custom made king-sized bed with an adjustable mattress, a large walk in closet, and a spacious en suite bathroom with a large and tranquil outdoor shower with ocean views.
The second bedroom features a queen-sized bed with an adjustable mattress, an en suite bathroom with a shower/bathtub combo, ocean views and your own lanai!
The third bedroom also has a queen-sized bed with an adjustable mattress, and an en suite bathroom with a shower, ocean views and your own lanai!
There is also a cozy den with a twin bed as well as a full sized pull out sofa. This room is an extra living or sleeping space that be closed off from the main living area.
The open concept living/kitchen area opens out onto another dining area overlooking your pool and the ocean! The kitchen is equipped with high end appliances and a huge selection of pantry items, cookware, and dishes. There are several places to enjoy food, family and friends, all with amazing ocean views!
Relax in the oversized "Cloud" sectional in the living room and turn on your favorite sports game from any room in the house, including the pool and hot tub areas! The entire inside and outside is also hooked up to the Sonos Stereo system to play your favorite playlist wherever you are.
Outside there is more than enough room for everyone to spread out. With views of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Hualalai and Maui it is just magical! The Whale Watching area at the front of the house includes a teak couch, 2 teak chaise lounges and extra poufs along with a fire pit: the perfect place for a sunset! The pool lanai includes the dining area, 2 Ibiza lounge chairs and an Ibiza double lounger, with plenty of shade to keep you nice and cool. The party lanai has plenty of comfortable seating around the oversized fire pit: the perfect spot for late night star gazing! Throw in the oversized spa and the infinity edge pool and you may never want to leave!!

Beautiful property, very clean and enjoyed working with the property manager!

This is truly one of those places that is so much better than advertised. The photos do not do the views justice, and the outdoor seating area and pool were far beyond expectations. We all agreed, we have never spent so much time in a pool in our lives. But when you float in 80-degree weather while watching whales and spinner dolphins, it’s hard to leave. Bedrooms, living area & kitchen were as advertised but it was the small touches that made the stay excellent.The laundry room was equipped with everything you would need if you stayed a month. Each bathroom offered body wash, soaps and other goodies while the pool area was equipped with a basket of sun block & more. There were towels galore and the private back yard BBQ area was delightful. Plus, the grill is hooked to the main propane tank, so never worry about running out.The kitchen had dozens of spices, high quality knives and every utensil needed to create a gourmet dinner. Oh. and the pull-out refrigerator drawers were an incredibly pleasant surprise. The house is about 45 min. from the airport but after spending time in downtown Kona, it was quickly clear the drive is worth it. SO fewer people & the town of Waimea is only 10 miles away with grocery stores and an incredible farmers market that offered fresh produce, fresh fish and local artists. Again, it was by far the best VRBO stay we have ever experienced. Thanks to Sophie for answering the few questions we had quickly and pleasantly. We will be back!

This is truly an amazing property, and we have rented 6 other homes in the islands. It really is better than the pictures. The pool is much larger than it looks in the photos. Whale watchimg from the lanai (overlooking the pool) or from on the pool was a treat. Great beds. A/C zones for individual preferenced. An incredibly well stocked kitchen. If you rent this ho.e, youbwill NOT be disappointed! We give it 6 stars out of 5.

Our second stay at this lovely property…plenty of whale activity here and green sea turtles at nearby Puako. We hope to see you again in the future.
