Hale Kai

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Hale Kai, meaning Ocean House, truly lives up to its name. Perched on the cliffs of Hawaiian Paradise Park, this oceanfront escape offers sweeping views of the Pacific and an expansive wraparound deck perfect for grilling, dining, or spotting whales, turtles, and dolphins. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors let you enjoy the ocean’s beauty from nearly every room.

Perfect for a family getaway or a romantic retreat (proposals have even happened on the deck!), Hale Kai is a peaceful haven with easy access to nearby attractions. You’ll be just 17 miles from Hilo, 12 miles from Kapoho, and minutes from a local park, scenic jungle trail to Ha‘ena (Shipman) Beach, and Orchidland’s cafés and shops. Pahoa’s charming town center is 10 miles away, and Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park is about a 30-mile drive.

First, the location and the view from this home is spectactular! The waves crashing off of the lava cliffs is beautiful and a reson we always stop through Hilo on a trip to the islands.Unfortunately once you get inside the house the experience changes. The house is clean and safe but looks to be in the same condition today as it was when built many years ago. The amenities are dated and the house needs updated in most ways.A major issue that I had were the excessive fees so please look inot these before booking. The expenses were lumped into two categories, fees and the VRBO fee. The two fees accounted for 86% of the total bill and this did not include taxes, if you include taxes the fees and tax were 117% of the booking fee for the house. Another home we stayed at had a fee ratio of 29% vs the 86% here. I don't know if this is the owners or their rental company but I would either reduce the fees or take some of that money and upgrade the place.It is a beautiful view though!

The sound of waves and coquis welcomed us when we arrived in the evening so we didn't see the amazing view until the morning. We certainly were feeling the feels of how amazing the view was and the peacefulness of calm. Getting away from the busy city life was the remedy we needed. Waking up to the sound of waves and zebra doves was amazing. It was fun to see the local birds. The lanai was the place to be but make sure to explore the front yard check out the birds along the bluff. You're gonna say wow!The property is spacious and well maintained. The kitchen is complete with a welcome package of a jug of water, cookies and chocolate in the fridge. It has all you need for cooking or baking. As a tea drinker, thank you for the hot water kettle. There was coffee and creamer to get you started. We did go get our own beans. If you want Kona coffee in the morning, check out Big Island Coffee Roasters. Have them grind a bag for you to make.The bathrooms were comfortable with starter kits shampoo/conditioner/lotion/shower gel. Enough for our group of 3 for 3 days. Being a super smeller, the scents weren't too overpowering. Getting prepared for this trip I did ask if there was any provided because I didn't see it on the details, I received a response pretty quickly.I enjoyed the study with the different books available. I enjoyed looking through the Japanese plant based cookbook. We would love to come back again. Mahalo!
Lamp in the study. It was wonderful to see the artwork throughout the place.
The fan system helps the house be cooler. This is a cool system and along with the water catchment system.
This is your 'wow' moment when walking into this amazing place.
Complete storage closet with outdoors stuff, first aid, flashlights etc.

Beautiful home and views

Property manager was so helpful in getting us into the home when the door code didn’t work. The sea turtles and dolphins were the best surprise! We loved the view of the cliffs. Only drawback is no AC even with all the fans but they had so many items ready for a vacation outside, we didn’t mind too much.

Great location - great price

Loved the place and location - beds were comfortable, attic fan was powerful (brought in ocean breeze making nites comfortable), and appliances and grill were pluses. There were just a few minor issues.1) on arrival, the door code was in error. We were able to get to Vacasa and they told us where a backup key was available. 2) they asked about how things were going after arrival, we said the remote tv batteries were dead and I offered to buy new ones. They said no, they would have them dropped off. The next day, they asked if dropping them off the following day was okay, I responded again, and no one came. We’re checking out today. It wouldn’t have been so bad if there was more than one tv or if they said “thanks for my offering to buy new ones, that would be fastest.”3) the network name and password on the welcome card was wrong, But Vacasa listed an alternative.4) we bought bottled water to be safe, as two documents were received. One said don’t drink the filtered water, and another said it’s fine.5) the view is phenomenal, but a caution about safety walking on the lava rock wall might be a reasonable thought.

Loved the quiet

It is a well-kept property. We really enjoyed the sunrise and the view from the terrace.You do need a car and it is quite far from all amenities, but if you don't mind, it is really a nice place to stay. The beds are comfy, we didnt need aircon, as there was always a breeze, only at night, the mosquitoes can be a little annoying outside, but all windows have mosquitoe nets.Lighting could have been a bit better in the second bathroom, but that is complaining on a high level. We would definitely recommend it for couples.

Lovely home

Lovely home on quiet street. This home is nestled at the back edge of the enormous neighborhood of HPP. It is directly on the ocean cliffs with dramatic views of the ocean. The whole house opens up to let in the cooling breezes and sounds of crashing waves. The home is very well equipped (kitchen, laundry and comfy beds) and lots of privacy but a short drive to grocery stores or downtown Hilo.

Hale Kai in HPP

Really great location. The house, however, was obviously cheaply built and cheaply decorated. It was also hot as heck! No insulation apparently, and no blinds in the great room to block the heat from the sun.There were ceiling and floor fans, but the ceiling fans were noisy. The kitchen was not well outfitted--as though someone made a list of utensils but had never cooked. We had a great time, but I will look for alternatives to Vacasa the next time I am looking for a vacation rental

Incredible Ocean View

We stayed on property for a hiking trip and house fully met our needs. It was fully equipped and supplied even with a bag of ice in freezer. The main reason we rented property is the incredible view of the ocean from the living/dinning room and back porch. House is just 50 feet from a cliff at the ocean front and seeing/hearing the waves crash into the cliff is mesmerizing. The main negative is no AC. House gets warm during day and windows need to be left open at night. While nights are relatively pleasant you need ear plugs to sleep do to outside bird chirping all night. We had problems with the coded door lock so used the emergency lock box key entire time. Property manager promptly gave us lock box code to access key. The house uses rain water system and recommends bringing your own bottled water.

Incredible view of cliffs and sea!

This home was lovely and it's position on the cliff overlooking the ocean was incredible. I spent a great deal of time watching waves and birds. It's away from the crowds but still a reasonable drive from Hilo or the volcanoes national park. We absolutely loved it here and did not want to leave.
