About this property
Brand New Oceanfront Home - Enjoy Fabulous Sunsets & Whale Watching!
Enjoy the raw beauty of the Big Island from the luxury of Sunsets and Whales at Kohala Waterfront - a newly built four bedroom residence located above one of the most active whale coves in Hawaii, offering wintertime visitors front-row seats to leaping humpback whales. Completed in 2020 and powered by renewable energy, Sunsets and Whales features state-of-the-art amenities, centralized air conditioning, powerful wifi and a private elevator to meet the needs of the most discerning travelers.
Upon entry upstairs, guests will arrive to a sleek and modern living space perfected by an acclaimed interior designer. The open-concept living space takes advantage of the breathtaking views and features a gorgeous kitchen, dining and living area that can all be opened to the outdoors with accordion lanai doors. The covered lanai spans the entire length of the living space with more outdoor seating and dining options. Upstairs there is a large en-suite master bedroom that accesses the lanai with special touches like a honeymoon bathtub and motion-censor fixtures. Other features of the upstairs include a BBQ area off of the kitchen, a powder bathroom and laundry room.
The downstairs floor plan is all about the large lap pool, hot tub and spacious pool deck that overlooks the Pacific Ocean and Hualalai mountain. Enjoy captivating sunset views and whale watching (seasonal) and lots of space for lounging with the family. There are three bedrooms downstairs, each with an ocean view and walk-out to the pool. On the north end of the downstairs there is a second master bedroom that is separated from the two guest bedrooms (queen beds in each) by a media room. Every bedroom in the home offers an ocean view, private bathroom and smart television.
Enjoy peace and relaxation at Sunsets and Whales at Kohala Waterfront, where the rugged Big Island and world-class luxury come together. (Whale season is from mid-December to late March for visitors wishing to see Alaskan humpback whales up close. )
