#1 AirBnb in Kona | Condé Nast Traveler | Aolani House
Welcome to Aolani House: Your Hawaiian Sanctuary
Discover unparalleled peace at Aolani House, nestled among the iconic coffee farms of Holualoa. Recently ranked #1 by Conde Nast Traveler among the best Airbnbs in Hawaii, our exquisite home offers breathtaking 180-degree ocean views, built by the same artisans as the renowned Four Seasons Hualalai on the Big Island. @AOLANIHOUSE
Your Oasis Awaits:
- Embrace refined serenity in our luxurious rooms, each featuring Tempurpedic king sized beds, fine linens, and plush bedding.
- Unwind in our private, heated saltwater infinity pool and spa, perfect for enjoying stunning sunsets and stargazing; and rinse off in our orchid-rich outdoor shower.
- Experience seamless indoor-outdoor living with Fleetwood pocket doors opening to an expansive terrace with a large restoration hardware sectional, overlooking lush Kona Coffee and MacNut farms. Enjoy a world-class sunset with panoramic ocean views while dining on the terrace on the 12-person koa wood dining table.
Sophisticated Spaces:
Our chic retreat by world-renowned artist Anna Sweet combines modern design with comfort, highlighted by a large flat-screen TV, Restoration Hardware furnishings, and curated fine art. Cook gourmet meals in our state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with a WOLF range and all the essential cooking utensils, or enjoy a private chef while you unwind and connect.
Accommodations & Access:
The main house features four king suites all with ensuite bathrooms. The Ohana, connected to the primary residence by a breezeway, boasts a spacious second master suite with a king-size bed, dual vanity bathroom, and a picturesque lanai overlooking the ocean—ideal for enjoying sunsets and morning coffee with a view. Beneath the Ohana, you’ll find a fantastic flex space equipped with a large 70” flat screen, a pull-out sofa, office area, a sizable fridge, and a small gym with a Peloton and AC, ensuring a comfortable stay and additional accommodation options for you. Guests enjoy exclusive access to the main property, with ample privacy amidst beautiful lush Hawaiian landscaping.
