We can help you with KAYAKS! As a means to provide protection to the marine wildlife, only permitted Kayaking is allowed in Kealakekua Bay. As part of our vacation home rental you are provided complimentary use of our kayaks and launch with licensed/registered kayaks. On the shores of Kealakekua Bay, a Protected Marine Conservation area, is Naiai Kai Hale (Dolphins & Sea). This home is a casual 3 bedroom/3 bath oceanfront hale. It is in a great adventure location; kayak and snorkel by the Captain Cook Monument, swim side by side with the Dolphins, hike the palis (cliffs) or just relax in the Jacuzzi, bask in the sun on the expansive oceanfront lawn and enjoy the lovely ocean view on the upstairs lanai.
This Oceanfront Hale offers amazing ocean views from kitchen, great room, master bedroom and first floor ohana guest room. The Oceanfront Hale louvered doors open completely up to the oceanfront setting. It allows you to invite the warm gentle ocean breeze inside. This open and airy private hale has all the amenities one would desire for a tropical vacation. The property is surrounded by fragrant Plumeria trees and Coco Palms and includes a sun deck, hot tub and outdoor shower. You can enjoy your dinners watching the famous Kona Sunsets on the spacious lanai, which can seat 8 comfortably. The home has wireless Internet service, High Definition TV and an iPod compatible entertainment system.
It is an unusual morning when the dolphins are not frolicking with swimmers and kayakers paddling across the clear waters directly off the oceanfront deck. The best and highest rated snorkeling in ALL HAWAII is found RIGHT HERE at Kealakekua Bay. Turtles make their way along the shore to rest, while stunning arrays of tropical fish accentuate the pristine coral reefs. You have direct access to the Bay for swimming, snorkeling and kayaking. Onsite kayak and snorkel equipment can be arranged upon request.
Any guests on property at any time in addition to overnight guests should be communicated and must be approved prior to booking.
