About this property

Ocean FRONT Home - Whale Watching Starts Nov-May! BOOK NOW!

Located in a quiet neighborhood in beautiful Hawaiian Paradise Park on the pahoehoe lava rocks above the blue Pacific Ocean. Wake up to the most beautiful sunrises and fall asleep to the lull of the ocean waves.

Sit back and enjoy the ocean while you BBQ. Later go for a dip in the 3 person soaking tub (please no children under 12 yr old) - Ocean Front! Get cozy and stream a movie on the 65" smart living room TV, play some board games in the bookcase, try the ukulele or the guitar and make some music! Whip out a yoga mat for some stretching and try the pressure point mat!

Load up the car for your island adventure! Everything you needs is here for a great outing! Ice chest with ice packs in the freezer, sand chairs, beach umbrella & towels, beach sheets for picnics, beach matts and TOYS....sand toys, balls, a huge Jenga game and boogie boards!

Do you want to explore? You can text Janice for suggestions and of course help in deciding what direction to go in first and the best places to eat near by and far away!

Do you need to work? NO WORRIES.... You can check-in with the office, answer emails with excellent Wifi and find several good spots to hunker down to get some work pau (pow - done)! We have one guest that stays every year for several weeks just to get caught up on her work!

The property has plenty of parking with easy access to the home and there are motion detection lights at night -there are no public street lights here in Hawaiian Paradise Park. We are a "Dark Sky" state because of the telescopes on Mauna Kea and the street lights you will see are amber in color and are downward facing.

We have Mother Nature keeping us cool with lovely trade winds and every room has ceiling fans. People find it curious that we have no HVAV ducting in the homes - no need!

The private master suite is located on the second floor. The master bedroom with a king size bed, a full bathroom, washer/dryer and a large oceanfront covered lanai (deck) are inviting and romantic. There is a sleeper sofa also.

The main floor of the home has a large Living room with a sofa and 65" smart TV, a family room area with a sleeper sofa, bookcase with books, toys, board games and you can make some music with the ukulele and guitar!

The kitchen is full size and fully equipped and there is a dining room table and an additional table on the oceanfront lanai next to the gas BBQ grill. Also on the oceanfront lanai is a seating area with a 3-person soaking tub - Best Whale Watch Spot EVER!

The second bedroom with a full bathroom has a new queen size mattress on a beautiful "elephant" bamboo bedframe and there is a walk-in closet!

ALL the beds have 100% cotton sheets - the micro fiber sheets here are not comfortable - they tend to make you sweat and are not soft like real cotton!

This is your vacation - Maka Ala Lani is here to malama you during your stay!
