About this property
Waialea Bay Beachfront Home with AC
Tucked into lush tropical surroundings just steps from the soft sands of Waialea Bay, Ehu Kai is a charming two-story cottage designed to evoke the feel of a cozy beach treehouse. Surrounded by mature landscaping and flowering trees, this unique retreat offers privacy, tranquility, and an authentic island experience—all just moments from one of the Big Island’s most beloved beaches.
Inside, the cottage features warm cedar paneling, handcrafted oak floors, and generous windows that welcome in the ocean breeze. The main living space is located upstairs and includes a vaulted ceiling, an open-concept kitchen with ocean views, and a comfortable lounge area that opens to a covered lanai—perfect for sipping coffee or watching the light shift over the bay. Also upstairs is the full bathroom with a shower/tub combo. Sleeping accommodations include a private bedroom with a king bed, plus a sofa sleeper in the living area—best suited for children. Please note: Ehu Kai accommodates a maximum of 2 adults and 2 children, making it ideal for a couple or small family seeking an intimate, peaceful escape.
Guests enjoy thoughtful amenities such as a fully equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, high-speed Wi-Fi, an outdoor shower, beach chairs and towels, and a small lawn framed by tropical foliage. While open windows, ceiling fans, and gentle trade winds keep the cottage naturally cool, there is also air conditioning in both the bedroom and main living space for added comfort.
Ehu Kai offers rare, quiet beachfront living—simply step out the front door and follow a short, gated path to the beach, where snorkeling, swimming, and turtle sightings await. With its inviting wood finishes, cozy layout, and unbeatable location, it’s no surprise that guests return to this special retreat year after year.

About the area
Puako
Located in Kamuela, this cottage is on the beach. While the natural beauty of Hāpuna Beach State Recreation Area and Mauna Kea Beach can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore Mauna Lani Resort Golf Course.
Manta Ray Point and Great 4-D Movie Ride are also worth visiting. Jet skiing and scuba diving offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with mountain biking and hiking nearby.
