Property Overview

Lalamilo Beach House is a beloved oceanfront retreat set directly on Waialea Bay (Beach 69), known for its white sands and crystal-clear waters. This classic plantation-style estate features a 3-bedroom main house with ensuite baths, a spacious great room, fully equipped kitchen, and expansive lanais perfect for dining, sunbathing, and stargazing.

The much loved and well appointed Lalamilo Beach House is ideally located on the north end of Waialea Bay (Beach 69) which is known for its beautiful white sand beach and turquoise blue water.

Three bedrooms in the main house each have their own private bathroom and you can see the ocean and beach directly in front of you. It is the most ideal location!

The plantation-style, main house was designed for beach goers of all ages. It features an expansive great room, a fully-equipped kitchen with large central island and counter seating, a dining table with seating for up to 10 guests, a card/game table and a large Punee for lounging in the traditional Hawaiian style. There is also a generous sun deck with an outdoor dining area and ample seating for sunbathers and stargazers alike. The long, shaded lanai leads to the home's three bedroom suites, each boasting stunning mauka and makai views as well as the sounds of the sea.

The separate, second story 1 bedroom/1 bath Guest house offers its own lanai, living room and master suite, as well as mauka views of the world famous volcanoes - Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa. The Ohana Guest House sleeps 2 adults and 2 kids comfortably.

Note: all interior spaces are fully-screened protecting you and your little ones from any tropical insects.

Nearly one half acre of beautiful, mature, tropical landscaping. The plumerias are so plentiful, in fact, that guests can string together their own leis daily. The large, green lawn leads directly onto the beach and provides the perfect spot to play badminton, volleyball, store beach toys, or host a small gathering. There is also a hot water, outdoor shower that makes coming in from a long swim or snorkel truly pleasurable.

The best rental I have experienced this far. The home is central with a wing of bedrooms. The host was phenomenal and flexible with check in and check out. I’m so sad to leave

This place is a gem. Everything about our stay was perfect. The place is well stocked with beach gear. The kitchen was large and well-equipped. The beach was shady and calm. We were all very, very happy here.

Think Hemingway, add in a gorgeous beach with incredible sunsets. Its here, accommodations are equal to its surroundings, matured and dated with Hawaiian history. Open aired with all the modern conveniences needed to enjoy this unique place.

This house was amazing for our family of eight and grandma and grandpa! The location is incredible and we will stay here again some year!!!!! The whole setting is a 10, but does have a few minor things to be aware of. The beach access is also part of a state park and can get really crowded, because it is an awesome location for snorkeling, SUP (use the owner’s referral to Evan for SUP & kayak rentals: HE WAS AWESOME to rent from) and hanging out. The house is well kept, but has it’s little things like the screen doors needed constant attention or our poor attention to detail that if you leave the property after 8pm to 7am, you have to use the secondary gated exit (we almost missed our fishing boat. Again, our mistake and the house contact was great to deal with) Other awesome bonus stuff was the storage room full of beach chairs, masks/snorkels/fins and a few fishing poles. Simply put, this house and location is second best place I have stayed in my life, after a safari tent resort in Africa! Mahalo!

Pictures can be deceiving, but this piece of paradise was quite above our expectations. As 28 year old son said “ this is the best vacation ever” no more needs to be said!🎉

Our extended family loved this property. Everything about it was perfect for us. Grandparents, two daughters and son in laws, five grandchildren. Each family had a place for themselves, plenty of bathrooms, great beach access, abundance of beach toys and chairs. Kitchen was perfect for all our cooking needs, thanksgiving dinner, birthday cake. I may delete this and write a mediocre review so we can have a good chance of getting this house again. Only drawback was stickers on the path to the beach from the trees. Truly our little piece of paradise.

The house is well equipped with great access to a beautiful beach. The house also has nice plantings and good privacy. If I stay there again I shall deal directly with Lelani the realtor not though Vrbo. The beach itself is sandy and picturesque but is often crowded during the day. In the early morning and evening it is quiet. Morning and evening are the best times for snorkeling.

Pictures do not do this place justice...the location and having private access to the beach is amazing! Waialea Bay is gorgeous! The beach house is well stocked and very comfortable. We can't wait to come back!

Its a beautiful place. We weren't disappointed. The beach is very peppered with large trees that lay on the sand, so not a typical beach, but it is RIGHT outside your front yard!

As always this was the perfect house for our extended family. It is such an easy comfortable place for all of us -from 4 year old to 77 year old - to be and to enjoy the area.
