About this apartment rental
Aloha and welcome to Halawai ( the point where heaven and earth meet), a Sanctuary Oasis on the road to Magical Green Sands Beach in Naalehu, HI. We are located half way between Hilo and Kona on a 3 acre peaceful sanctuary in mystical South Point, Na'alehu Hawaii. This is a great place to have as a base when touring the Southern part of the island. You will love my home, It's bright, clean, comfortable, cheery and filled with Aloha Spirit! Your rental is an entire beautiful, 1 bedroom 1 bath apartment located on the upper floor. There is a grand outdoor staircase to access the upper floor, where you pass through your own private huge Lanai (an outside covered verandah) to relax on and enjoy the Koi pond and an incredible botanical garden below. You enter the sliding door to a cheery room full of light, good energy, Hawaiian art and colors. For your comfort there is a full kitchen, with cooking and bakeware, an island, stove, microwave, and refrigerator, coffee, tea, honey, fruit etc. There are also condiments, rice and salad dressings etc in the refrigerator for your useage. The bedroom has a new queen sized memory foam mattress to relax and dream in peaceful ease. The adjoining bath is newly remodeled and stylish, well appointed, and comfortable with bathtub and shower. There is a full size futon sofa if extra sleeping arrangements are needed. For those with chemical sensitivities. We clean with non-toxic old fashioned cleaners and essential oils only. All bedding, mattress are pristinely maintained and pillows and mattress have triple encasement for ultimate cleanliness and comfort. South Point in Hawaiian is known as "Ka Lae" which means "The Point", as its the southern most point of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the whole United States! No light pollution makes for FANTASTIC FOR STAR WATCHING UNDER THE MILKY WAY AND SOUTHERN CROSS!!! South Point is the very place where the first sea faring Polynesians (Hawaiians) came ashore so long ago and the region where the mightiest warrior, King Kamehameha trained in the Hawaiian arts. The land has strong Mana! (energy) On the way to Green Sands Beach you can still see remains of the rock hale's (houses) and stone Heiau's (temples) of these Ancient Hawaiian's. Our Neighborhood (South Point Road) is full of farms growing Macadamia nuts, coffee, and various other offerings. There are 2 first rate quaint coffee shop's in Naalehu to enjoy outstanding Ka'u regional coffee.

100/10 my most favorite vrbo stay yet. The garden is gorgeous, such a peaceful and wonderful place to explore. Ka'haiya was so nice and very responsive. The unit was immaculate, very clean with literally everything you could need. Clearly a lot of love and time has been put into making it such a cozy, unique and fun space. I travel alone and it's honestly the safest I've ever felt staying here. The big lounge chair on the lanai was my selling point originally, and it did not disappoint. I loved sitting out there to read, just sit and listen to all the birds or night sounds, and especially enjoyed watching the sunset in the clouds. The location was good for me because it was nice and quiet and not too touristy. Nice drive to go up the west side to get to more touristy things if that's your jam. I would love to stay here again if I come back to the island, and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a safe and comfortably place to relax.

We had a wonderful stay at Halawai Haven. Ka’Haiya was a lovely host. She was always responsive to any need we had. Due to a storm on the island the power went out for several hours and she was quick to reach out and supply alternative light sources and water. The place was very clean and comfortable. The gardens are gorgeous. We chose this location to be near a few of our favorite stops, a nearby coffee farm, the Punalu’u Bake shop and the Punalu’u Black sand beach. Volcanoes National Park was also less than an hour away. We also love Hana Hou a nearby restaurant! If you are looking to stay on this part of the island I’d highly recommend staying here!

Very clean and comfortable accommodations! Quiet. Absolutely loved the garden and lush tropical surroundings (wish I had their potting bench). Would love to stay again for a longer period of time. Highly recommend!

Everything was clean and tidy and very welcoming. The host was very organized and gave great directions. The apartment was well laid out. We cooked some of the host's organic eggs every morning in the kitchen and there was plenty of space to eat at the table or sit on the couch and read. We loved sitting on the Lanai and looking at the stars, and it's only a few minutes to Green Sand Beach and the amazing South Point!
