About this property

7H - Hawaiian Elegance – Luxurious Deluxe Ocean View Villa (6+)

Aloha, e komo mai (welcome)!! Come experience our luxurious villa at the prestigious Hali’i Kai oceanfront gated community conveniently located on the sunny Kohala Coast on the Big Island’s Waikoloa Resort where we average 7” of rain a year (the driest in the state). Boasting 2 18-hole championship world-class golf courses and shopping, our hale (home) offers an opportunity to experience a true unmatched island retreat. Note:…you may quickly feel the affects or our ‘Polynesian paralysis’ before long.

AMENITIES: One of Hali'i Kai’s famous features is it's private ocean front club with a magnificent multi level free form pool with aqua loungers, waterfalls, sand bottom lava spa hot tub and attached Keiki pool. Adjacent is a café restaurant and fitness area with unobstructed views overlooking the blue Pacific. Adorned with balmy island breezes at oceans edge, our oceanfront club features spectacular views, BBQS available to enjoy with family and friends, an outdoor garden covered lounge area, luxurious bathroom facility, poolside cabanas, with a relaxing atmosphere. All year round, glorious sunsets are the norm and during our winter months, take pleasure in lots of whale watching and view of the incredible surf.

VILLA: Conveniently situated in the center of Hali’I Kai, less than 400 yards from the ocean, our villa is luxuriously furnished and decorated reflecting the understated Hawaiian elegance found amongst top notched world-class resorts and hotels. As original kama`aina (local) owners, we are fortunate to have this fabulous Villa that Centex (the developer) built with such style and elegance. Our lanai is the perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee or perhaps an ocean view sunset dinner while grilling on our new Weber grill complete with cooking utensils. Sunbathing or simply watching golfers on the adjacent lawn area on this ground floor unit without stairs makes for easy access. The Villa is primarily decorated and appointed with distinctive designer furnishings featuring Hawaiian elegance with a hint of an Asian flair. The Master bedroom has a Cal king bed (from which an ocean view may be enjoyed:), large private master bath with granite counter tops with dual sinks, large walk in shower with bench and a separate deep soaking tub. The guest bedroom has 2 xl twins (which can be converted to a full Cal King at your request), and the other guestroom features a queen size bed, detailed accents with views of the gorgeous Mauna Kea and Kohala Mountains with beautiful morning sunrises. The guest bathroom is complete with tub/shower, granite counter tops and sink. The attention to detail won’t be missed. The relaxing living area has a couch, chairs and ottoman, wall mounted LCD panel, blueray player, premium cable with HBO. Adjacent is an elegant dining area with seating for 6+ with a chandelier. The upgraded kitchen is complete and fully stocked with everything from an espresso maker with enough cooking utensils and gadgets to make a full scrumptious Thanksgiving meal. Equipped with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops & bar stools, you’ll want for nothing. Our hale has a laundry room with washer/dryer and laundry supplies. We have complimentary High-speed wireless Internet, telephone for complimentary long distant calls to all Hawaiian Island, Canada, Mexico and all of USA. We have 2 bikes, beach chairs, boogie boards, basketball, tennis racquets (courts are across the street).

RESORT: The Waikoloa Beach Resort has upscale shopping, gorgeous black, green & white sand beaches (ask us we'll tell you some well kept secrets), petroglyph sites (rock etchings used as the ancient form of Hawaiian communication), 2 golf courses. Our favorite restaurant is located in the Queens shops right on the resort, Sansei’s & Roys. One of our Island favorites is Pueo's located in Waikoloa Village. As our guest on the resort, you are entitled to special green fees at the Beach golf course and the Kings golf course.

Home was beautiful, had everything you needed. I’ve stayed at many properties and Laurie Jo thought of everything. She was very responsive to any issues that came up and was gracious enough to let us extend our checkout time. Would highly recommend.

Brilliant holiday in a beautiful location

We absolutely loved our stay at Hali'i Kai in 7H. It was perfect for our family and located on the ground floor with a lovely view over the golf course to the ocean. There is a bbq and patio furniture to dine outdoors. The owner was amazing. She communicated quickly with any question we had. She even offered to shop for us as we were arriving late at night. What a lovely surprise to come in to find everything we needed for breakfast and more! Thank you again Laurie Jo!The kitchen was a cook's dream; very well supplied with high end appliances and everything you could possibly need to prepare meals. The icing on the cake was all of the beach gear and other equipment in the garage. Our little guys really enjoyed the kids size masks, snorkels and fins, the boogie boards and other play equipement. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrellas and adult sized boogie boards and more.We would highly recommend this unit, they have really thought of everything! We can't wait to return!

The best condo in Hawaii!

What a place! Loved every minute of this rental. We have never stayed in such a well stocked home including all you need in a kitchen and so much beach gear. Do not hesitate booking with such a lovely and communicative host in a condo with such a special view. Fun and spacious for 5 adults and my 3.5 year old was happy our entire stay.

Laurie Jo and Paul’s place is truly exceptional!

Hali’i Kai’s location and easy access into the beautifully landscaped, private community provides a sense of quiet serenity in paradise, yet it is merely minutes by car (or by foot, or on the provided bikes) to the shopping areas and the rest of what the Waikoloa Beach Resort has to offer. This unit is beautifully decorated; spacious, comfortable, and exceptionally clean. The kitchen is extremely well equipped; and the private lanai looks out over the greens towards the ocean, lending itself to an amazing view and incredible sunsets. Laurie Jo and Paul generously provide bikes and enough sports and beach equipment to satisfy anyone’s needs. Also included is access to Hali’i Kai’s private Ocean Club. The views and sunsets from the beautiful pools, work out room, and dining area are stunning. The staff is attentive and welcoming, the food portions are LARGE and everything was delicious. To top it all off, Laurie Jo’s Spirit of Aloha, hospitality, and attention to detail make her the quintessential host. She and Paul provide an impressive compendium of resources and suggestions to enhance your stay. Laurie Jo went over and above to make sure we had everything we needed. She is an absolute delight which is reflected in every aspect of their beautiful Hale. True Paradise!!

7H

Hai’I Kai was an excellent place to stay. The gated community was safe, quiet, and a short walk from the resorts next door. There are two grocery stores nearby Foodland and Island Country Market. 30 minutes from the airport, 45 to Kona, and 90 minutes to Hilo. The garage was well stocked with bikes, beach chairs, basketballs, golf clubs, water shoes, snorkels,masks, and flippers. I would definitely stay here again if we ever return to the Big Island.🌴🌋🌺

We will definitely be back! Thank you so much! Laurie has an amazing set up for the whole family. Everything you could need for beach going and biking. We loved relaxing at the ocean club pool and restaurant. Salt water pool was gentle for baby and a great temperature. The restaurant menu had good variety and the employees were very friendly! The ocean club had incredible whale watching. Floor level unit was great for my mom and 7 month old. Community was gated and felt very private. Short distance from wonderful beaches, golf courses and grocery stores. We enjoyed going to Island Vintage Coffee for Açaí bowls and morning caffeine!

An amazing sunset seen from the lanai welcomed us to the Big Island after our long journey, and every night after that. Prime viewing for endless sunsets. Laurie Jo and Paul were so welcoming, and very easy to communicate with. Any questions were promptly answered. This was the perfect space for our family of 5. I loved that it was a first floor walk out. The cross breeze with the screened front door is wonderful. It was very clean and comfortable. Laurie Jo made sure we were equipped with beach towels and plenty of necessities. I highly recommend this property and hope we can return someday. Very sad to leave 😢Mahalo Laurie Jo & Paul

About the host

Hosted by Laurie Jo

Host profile image
OWNERS: I was born and raised in Hawaii (3rd generation), met my husband Paul in '78 and have been residing together on the Big Island since while working in luxury hotels, destination management and hospitality industry. We are committed to providing excellence. This means being creative, detailed, informed, and in synch with your objectives as a visitor and guest of our Hale. We are also focused on extending and sharing our cultural and spirit of aloha. This means ensuring you are treated to the warmth, generosity, diversity, and heritage of the island and it's people.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location!! Because we are established here on island and in the luxury hospitality industry, it didn't take long to realize how special this complex and unit really are. There's a sense of warmth and Aloha spirit every time we step foot in our Hale. We know the area very well and had lots to choose from, but something magical about this place sets it apart from all others. This is our second HK property and our dream villa. We hand't planned on buying another but this was the only other unit we would have ever wanted and it became available when our good friends put it on the market.

What makes this property unique

There is such a peaceful, serene and tranquil feeling within the Hale and complex yet one can be moments from action, restaurants, shopping, cultural activities, golf and much much more. Although we live on island, we love our mini vacations at the beach!!
