About this property
Manta Ray Manor - Oceanfront Gated Community, short walk to beach and town.
Location, location, location. Manta Ray Manor is a vibrant, 3 bedroom/3 ensuite baths, ocean view 2500 square foot home set on the Kona coast in a private, gated oceanfront community. Manta Ray Manor provides a perfect retreat for your Hawaii adventure. Keiki Beach with its beautiful white sand, swimming lagoon, tide pools and ocean access is a short walk down the Manor's comfortable private street.
Manta Ray Manor is an architect-designed, fully functional beach retreat. It's bigger than a bungalow, allowing everyone their own space, but small enough to rekindle the family aloha. High ceilings, expansive windows and large living areas make the home airy, bright and relaxing. The living room, with its expansive seating and 60" TV (if desired), provides a comfortable indoor gathering place. Just off the living room is the tropical lanai, complete with enough outdoor furniture for the entire ohana to lounge and enjoy meals. Relax in the lanai's hot tub under the palm tree framed starry sky.
After a long day, retreat to your private bedroom and bath. Manta Ray Manor's master suite is roomy with its own living area, California king size bed, full bath and private lanai with ocean view and mountain. Fall asleep and wake up to the rhythm of the waves. A second, spacious bedroom with king size bed and ensuite bath resides upstairs. Enjoy peaceful views of island pines, palm trees and Mount Hualālai in the distance. The third bedroom is light and bright with a king bed, bathroom and main floor location. All bedrooms have California closets. Two air conditioning units cool the entire home as needed.
Manta Ray Manor’s custom kitchen is equipped with all the accessories your crew needs to entertain and enjoy great meals at home. This includes a gas range, large double-sided refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, toaster oven, Vitamix and plenty of dishes, pans and flatware. Just off the kitchen is the dining room which comfortably seats 6.
Kona town and famous Ali'i Drive, with their eclectic restaurants, breweries, shopping and lively outdoor scene, are 1 mile away, as is Kailua Pier and its outdoor activities. Fill your days with paddle-boarding, kayaking, whale watching, snorkeling, scuba diving (with giant oceanic manta rays!) volcano viewing... The possibilities go on and on. Or, just relax on your neighborhood beach with a cold drink, good book and peaceful aloha spirit. No matter what you choose to do, these amenities are easily accessible by foot, bike ride or short drive. This is the magic of Manta Ray Manor.
6 beach chairs, 2 beach umbrellas, 2 body boards, assorted beach toys, a beach wagon and cooler are conveniently stored inside the side gate. We periodically add items, so this list changes. The rinsing hose is located by the main lanai's front steps. A recreation area is adjacent to Kona Bay Estates and Manta Ray Manor. Feel free to use the tennis and pickleball courts, Aquatic center with community pool, Olympic size lap pool, kids’ playground, horseshoe pits, frisbee golf course, Maka’eo Walking Path and more (indoor facilities may be limited due to Covid-19).
If you've never been to the Big Island of Hawaii, it's the largest Hawaiian Island. With 80% of the state’s landmass, but only 20% of its people, the Big Island has wide open spaces, high mountains, spacious valleys and room to breathe. The island also has several volcanos. Kilauea, Mauna Loa, Hualalai and Loihi (below sea level) are active. Mauna Kea is currently dormant. The town of Kona, and Manta Ray Manor, are situated on the leeward, less windy and more sunny side of the Big Island. Here, alongside Hawaii's many manta rays, you will enjoy year-round tropical temperatures and crystal-clear, blue waters. Upon booking, we will provide you with Manta Ray Manor's "Big Island," our illustrated guidebook containing dining, relaxation and adventure suggestions to optimize your Big Island adventure. You can access Big Island via hard copy and QR code.
Manta Ray Manor looks forward to providing the inspirational "base camp" for your next magical,Hawaiian experience.
Aloha!
