Tropical & inviting home w/spa, torches, waterfalls & ocean view

Hale Wailele (Waterfall House) is a beautiful, spacious home with floor to ceiling windows in the great room looking out onto fountains in the pool with an incredible ocean view beyond the palm trees and torches. The architecture of the home makes it unique and inviting with artistic touches such as arches and cathedral ceilings throughout. Our home is in a quiet neighborhood where most people live with open windows. Therefore, we do not offer it for weddings, meetings, or parties. The use and enjoyment of the house, pool, etc. is limited to the individuals listed on the rental agreement. We will only confirm reservations that give details about the group, purpose of the trip, and reassurances about being respectful and keeping noise at normal conversation levels. Disruptive behavior and excessive noise are not permitted.

The master bedroom is furnished with a king bed, TV, garden tub with separate shower, Toto bidet commode, and infra-red sauna.

Bedroom two has a king and a queen bed, and full guest bath.

Bedroom three has a king bed, and sitting area and full guest bath

The den has a TV, recliner, and a pullout sofa. It opens to a side yard perfect for game of croquet or bocce. The den and bedroom three share the full guest bath.

The loft looks over the great room, has a computer desk, foosball table, 2 queen futons and 1 double futon.
The gourmet kitchen features stainless appliances and two adjoining dining areas. There are also two bar areas.

If you prefer to cook and dine on the lanai, we have a large stainless gas grill, and an Evo grill. There is plenty of seating at two lanai tables.

Tropical gardens surround the home on the spacious one acre lot. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the orchid garden, herb garden and extensive assortment of flowers and fruit trees including, papaya, lemon, lime. apple-banana, fig, and mango.

There are 3 smart-home features installed. 2 Nest doorbells, one at the front door and one at the side door (both facing parking areas); and a smart lock , that will be programmed with a code to unlock the door, for your convenience.

Also a quick note about our animal friends :)

Geckos: Because of the tropical climate and vegetation in Hawaii you are likely to see our friends the geckos. They are a beautiful bright green with a few magenta spots. They have no teeth, are harmless, and considered good luck on the islands because they eat harmful insects. They are most easily spotted outside by lights waiting for dinner, but can fit through the smallest openings and are sometimes seen inside as well. If you see one inside and prefer not to have its company, please just toss a hand towel over it and release it into the gardens.

Birds: There are many birds around the house and throughout the neighborhood including Brazilian cardinals, finches, doves, exotic pheasants, chickens, and others. While they are fabulous to watch and a favorite part of the tropics, they can also be noisy for light sleepers. We recommend adding a sleep app to any smart phone or bringing earplugs if you think you might be bothered.

Please include the correct number of guests, information about your group, and purpose of your trip with your inquiry. Mahalo!

Came with friends to do the IM World Championships! The house is in a great location for easy access to the race venue. It is on a quiet hillside with beautiful views and a wonderful breeze all day! The host and the caretakers were great as well. We would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a great Kona experience.

Gorgeous property in paradise with every amenity and wonderful hosts!
We had such a wonderful stay in this beautiful house in the hills behind Kona over the New Year. The property is gorgeous, spacious, and clean, with heavenly views of the coast and ocean. The pool and jacuzzi are perfect, and most of all, the owners (remote) and hosts (on-site, just behind the property) were kind, warm and responsive. They showed us the fruit trees on property, let our kids help pick fresh bananas, and took care of every detail. A very special place—we will be back!

This gorgeous property was perfect for our family and friends aged 18-83. We enjoyed the beautiful pool and sunsets each evening. The view was spectacular. We were close to grocery stores and an easy drive to the waterfront for shopping and dining. The house was well stocked for cooking when we chose to eat in. We based out of Kona and took day trips to Hilo and Volcano National Park. We met the owners and they were so nice and gave us excellent suggestions for activities and shopping. Everyone in our group loved the house and had a great time during our stay.

Great Views
This was a great home and the views were amazing! Nothing like sitting outside and watching the sunset every night. Our family really enjoyed our stay. The hosts communication was great. We spent the mornings outside relaxing and listening to the birds. The neighborhood was quiet and safe so you got to hear the natural sounds of nature around you. What a relaxing place. The house was stocked with everything you need, probably the best we have had in any VRBO which was very nice. Great pans and dishware. We would definitely comeback!

Beautiful home, great view
The photos do not do the house justice. It’s a real “wow” when you walk in and see the outdoor living space, the pool waterfall, and the view. The house is the best equipped one we’ve ever rented - every kitchen gadget, spices, cooking basics, paper towels, laundry necessities, beach chairs, etc. We cooked several meals easily. Great grill. The house is clearly lived in by the owners which made it cozy, comfortable and fully accessorized. Recommend without hesitation and will return.

Our dream vacation come true!
Our family saw this house on vrbo and liked what we saw. But we didn't imagine how beautiful it was until we got there. It was truly a dream come true and more. The home and property are so well kept and amazing. The view took our breath away! We had 6 adults and 4 children with us and there was something for everyone Alanya is a wonderful and very accommodating hostess. The house had all that we needed which made for an easy and relaxing stay. We would definitely recommend this lovely place for a vacation!! It is close to the airport and wonderful beaches. The caretaker was very pleasant and helpful. Thank you for the spectacular stay, great memories we will have for a lifetime and sharing your beautiful home with us!

Best House on The Big Island!
This was by far the most gorgeous house we could have rented. For our family of 9 it was perfect. No one ever felt as if they were on top of one another. The location is prime (only 12 minutes from the Kona Airport). From the caretakers to the owners you’d think you have landed on a high end resort. Their customer service is fantastic. Besides the house being absolutely stunning (pictures don’t do it justice), the Kona side is the place to be. We were away from the hustle and bustle of the tourists, yet an easy drive away to come off the mountain to enjoy the shops, restaurants, and attractions Kona has to offer. We would most definitely recommend this home and location to others. Thank you to Alayna and her family for opening their home to us. We couldn’t have asked for a more memorable trip. Mahalo!

Perfect Home and Beautiful Location for our Family!
Our extended family of 9 just returned from enjoying a four-night stay at this beautiful home. The location was perfect, the grounds were immaculate and the home very comfortably accommodated our large family. Perched up on the mountainside, the ocean views are breath-taking and can be enjoyed from any area of the backyard. Our family had a great time using the fire-pit, jacuzzi, swimming pool, and a hammock. The kitchen had high-end appliances, was large and well-stocked, with plenty of seating inside and out. Alanya is also very responsive and is the nicest owner we have worked with. She had a welcome basket and a visitors guide outlining fun activities and restaurants if you are interested. The caretaker was also great to work with and recommended a beach for us to visit that was truly remarkable - we have never seen water that clear or blue. You will be very happy if you choose this property for your stay! We were very impressed and would love to stay again.

Grandparents Family Vacation
This was our once in a lifetime gift to our kids and grandkids. We could not have been more pleased with our stay. The property is a gem, and the other reviews are very accurate. The outdoor shower was a big hit with everyone. We had to pick a number each night to see what the order was. The outdoor space with the pool and the view were spectacular. It's a million-dollar view as you see in the pictures. Alanya was very helpful and if you had a question, she was very prompt with a response. The caretakers are right up the hill. If you have a problem, it gets resolved pronto and are a very pleasant couple. This house by far was the most well-equipped rental we have ever been in (34 rentals). I could go on about the evo grill and all the little things that made this rental memorable, but the review would be too long. I will leave you with this. This is the only rental we would do again.

Amazing views from this resort like property
We came to Kona to celebrate our parents 50th wedding anniversary and this house was the icing on the cake. Incredible views from pretty much every room in the house. The property was well maintained and had a secluded feel to it. The outdoor shower by the Lanai is one of the most refreshing feelings in the world. The house is up the hill, so it gets a wonderful breeze most of the day and is a few degrees cooler than downtown Kona. It's centrally located, so you're a short drive from shops, stores, beaches, and restaurants. The welcome book has a lot of great ideas for activities and all the beach equipment you could need is provided. Very nice kitchen inside the house and clean gas grill and flattop outside. The caretakers are very friendly and approachable, but have great boundaries. They live in a house on the other side of the property and you won't even know they're there unless you need them. The only thing disappointing about this house is saying goodbye when your trip ends. We traveled with age ranges of 10-73 and everyone had a wonderful time. Thanks for sharing your slice of paradise with us.
