Heart of Hualalai, Kona, Hawaii

Imagine waking up to sweeping ocean views, sipping freshly brewed Kona coffee on your private lanai, and ending the day watching spectacular Hawaiian sunsets from your own tropical retreat. Welcome to Heart of Hualalai, a one-acre private estate in Kona coffee country where thoughtful architecture, lush gardens, and modern comforts come together to create an exceptional home away from home.

A Private Tropical Retreat

Hidden behind private gates and surrounded by beautifully landscaped, tropical gardens, Heart of Hualalai offers a peaceful sense of seclusion while remaining less than 10 minutes from downtown Kona and nearby beaches. Enjoy expansive ocean, coastline, and garden views stretching from Keauhou Bay to the Kona airport.

Relax beside the solar heated swimming pool, soak in the hot tub, explore the winding garden paths, or settle into one of the many inviting lanais and outdoor sitting areas. Whether you're gathering with family, reconnecting with friends, or simply enjoying the slower pace of island life, there is room here to find your own favorite corner.

Room to Gather, Space to Unwind

With four private guest bedrooms and comfortable accommodations for up to 10 guests, Heart of Hualalai is ideal for families and groups who want to spend time together without sacrificing personal space.

The estate offers more than 4,000 square feet of indoor and covered outdoor living space across three interconnected structures: the main house, a separate master cottage suite, and an attached caretaker's studio. Guest accommodations include the main house, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen, living room and dining room, plus the master cottage, with its own bedroom, bathroom, and living room. The master bedroom has a king sized bed while two of the main house bedrooms have a queen sized bed and one of the main house bedrooms has two queen beds.

Multiple lanais, breezeways, built-in seating, and cozy nooks create inviting spaces for everything from shared meals and lively conversation to a quiet afternoon with a book.

Distinctive Tropical Architecture

Heart of Hualalai is more than a place to stay—it's a home thoughtfully designed to embrace its tropical surroundings. Handcrafted French and clerestory windows, soaring ceilings, raw-cut cedar walls, rich mahogany, teak and koa cabinetry, ipe hardwood floors, and fossil-inspired porcelain tile give the home its distinctive character.

Beautiful garden and ocean views appear throughout, while the open, well-equipped kitchen is designed for guests who love to cook, entertain, and gather around the table.

Outdoor Living, Hawaiian Style

Wander the garden paths through a lush landscape of tropical plants and fruit trees, including bananas, avocados, dragon fruit, mangoes, passion fruit, vanilla orchids, lemons, limes, and oranges. Seasonal availability varies, but the gardens offer a wonderful opportunity to experience the abundance of tropical growing.

Enjoy the solar heated pool, unwind in the hot tub, rinse off in one of two outdoor showers, or gather around the wood-fired pizza oven for a memorable evening. Guests also have access to a gym, two laundry centers, and a dedicated luggage storage room.

The pool is solar-heated and designed to maintain a comfortable temperature of approximately 80–85°F, depending on weather and sunshine. The hot tub uses a high efficiency heat-pump system set to 102°F.

Comfortable Naturally, Connected Everywhere

At approximately 1,000 feet above sea level, the property enjoys cooling coastal and mountain breezes. The home's open design and natural ventilation help keep indoor spaces comfortable without conventional air conditioning. As with much of Hawaii, the natural soundtrack may include coqui frogs at night and neighborhood roosters in the early morning.

For guests who need to stay connected, Heart of Hualalai combines its tranquil setting with modern technology. Complimentary gigabit internet service and mesh Wi-Fi throughout, provide coverages making remote work, video calls, and streaming ultra convenient.

Each guest bedroom and living area features Sonos audio and a 4K smart TV. The master cottage also includes a dedicated workspace with a 4K monitor, ergonomic office chair, laptop docking connections and accessories for PC and Mac, keyboard, mouse, and wireless laser printer.

Whether you're working remotely for an extended stay or simply enjoying your favorite entertainment after a day exploring the island, you'll have the comforts and connectivity of home.

Spend your days discovering the beaches, coastal scenery, local restaurants, and attractions of the Kona area, then return to the privacy of your own tropical estate. Enjoy a morning coffee overlooking the ocean, an afternoon by the pool, dinner with your favorite people, and a sunset that reminds you why you came to Hawaii.
