About this property

Ho'o Maluhia: Breezy Oceanview Retreat w/Private Pool and Stunning Views

Ho‘o Maluhia invites you to savor island life above Kailua-Kona, where sweeping 180-degree Pacific panoramas stretch from the harbor to the horizon. Perched at 700 feet, this two-level hillside retreat blends indoor-outdoor living with expansive lanais, a sparkling private pool, and cooling mountain breezes.

What You’ll Love About Ho‘o Maluhia
* Sweeping 180-degree Pacific panorama with coastline, harbor, & sunset views from both lanais
* Private pool with lounge deck, outdoor shower, and tropical landscaping
* Two-level design with California King primary suite & spa-style bath upstairs
* Fully equipped gourmet kitchen, BBQ grill, and multiple dining areas for gatherings
* Elevated location for cooler evenings, minutes from Ali‘i Drive, beaches, and cultural landmarks

Living & Dining
Upstairs, an open floor plan frames the ocean at every turn. A spacious living room with an oversized sectional invites your whole group to gather for conversation or a movie night on the smart TV. The adjacent dining area is designed for lingering meals with a view, while sliding glass doors open to the lanai for seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Chef-Ready Kitchen
The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ample prep space, and a center island for casual breakfasts. Cook while gazing out over the Pacific, then serve your creations in the dining room, out on the lanai, or poolside. A BBQ grill just steps away makes sunset dinners effortless.

Outdoor Oasis
The upper and lower lanais provide front-row seats to Kona’s vibrant sunsets and starlit skies. Downstairs, your private pool sparkles under the sun, surrounded by lounge seating. One guest suite even has its own outdoor breakfast nook and shower for a secluded start to the day.
