About this house rental
Hale Pali (Cliff House) is a spectacular (non-smoking) OCEANFRONT home overlooking the blue Pacific. We heartily agree with our guests who have enthusiastically stated: 'there is nothing that compares to actually being on the water' - what better way to enjoy the sound of the waves, and the smell of the sea air.
The home is beautifully and tastefully decorated and features teak furniture.
You will love cooking in the fully equipped, Rick Hartman designed, gourmet kitchen.
You can keep cool by taking a dip in our 3,000 gallon 'natural' (unheated) pool or just 'chill' while lounging and sunning yourself on our small private white sand beach, you may also choose to kick back on the lanai in the comfort of our shaded hammock.
If you need to stay connected you can do so via FREE WIFI.
A perfect day begins while sitting on the sea wall, sipping Kona Coffee, and looking out to sea. You will be amazed by the spectacular “blow-hole” that adds to the OCEANFRONT splendor of our seaside home.
If you are looking for 'off-the-beaten-path relaxation. We think that the serenity you will find here makes the 45 minute drive south from Kona Village very worthwhile.
To help ensure a comfortable visit we thoroughly clean and sanitize the house between guests.
About the Owners: Carl and Deborah have lived here on the Big Island for more than 40 years and reside on an 8 1/2 acre farm just 15 minutes up the mountainside from the Beach House.

Hale Pali has operated continuously since 2006 and Carl & Deb say that their favorite part of owning Hale Pali is meeting guests from all corners of the globe.

Carl and Deb are amazing hosts! They're very open with communication and the check-in process was seamless! The pictures they share do not compare to the actual home and scenery! This was truly a home away from home for us. The kitchen was definitely made for staying in for amazing evening meals with a picturesque back drop! The walk-out allowed us to watch sea life from above.... from reef fish to dolphins swimming by in the morning! Mahalo C&D for everything! We will be back!!

We wish that we had had more time to take advantage of this lovely home with the amazing views and a small, cozy natural pool. We spent so much time exploring the amazing “Big Island” that we ran out of time! The house was wonderful and we truly felt that we were living the Hawaii life. No AC-no problem with the many fans and ocean breezes. If we ever have the chance to go back, we would definitely stay at Carl and Deb’s Hale. The large kitchen had all we needed and more, to include the pet gecko. We had no idea exactly what the location would be like before we went, but quickly got used to roads and switchbacks. It was like a carnival ride by the end of our too short week and the best part were the spectacular views going up and down . Beds were comfy and the wrap around porch was amazing. Travel time to the National Park wasn’t bad at all. It was about 1 1/2 hours but with the landscape views it goes my quickly. It takes about 15-20 minutes from the house to get up the hill to the main road but again, it was no problem. Next time we go back we want to just stay at the hale and relax, watch the marine life swim by, and the green flash as the sun sets over the horizon. BTW - if you do visit the island, check out the Shaka Guide. We did all 5 of the island tours and found them all very informative and helpful. In closing, we loved this home!

The House was nice, the views were amazing. The issue we had was the remote location. The nearest market OceanView takes 45 minutes round trip. All attractions are very distant. The property owners are very responsive and kept us informed. In the future I will likely choose Waikoloa side of the island. Overall it was a nice stay. Thank you.
