About this property

Brought to you by Paradise in Hawaii Luxury Homes.

Welcome to Nohea Kai! Immerse yourself in the perfect fusion of island beauty and sophisticated luxury.

Nestled in the exclusive, centrally located Nohea Community, Nohea Kai is an extraordinary 4-bedroom,

3,730-square-foot single-story sanctuary. Directly fronting the 3rd hole of the Mauna Lani North

Course, this luxurious retreat accommodates up to 12 guests—offering the ultimate space for

multi-generational families or couples traveling together to relax, rejuvenate, and celebrate.

  • **Safety First*** Because of our beautiful open-water features (the entry koi ponds and the open-concept pool patio area), this home may not be suitable for families traveling with toddlers or very young children who require constant supervision around water.

The Home:

Walk through a serene entry courtyard featuring a peaceful koi pond and lush tropical setting.

The great room features soaring vaulted ceilings and expansive sliding doors opening the home

to a massive covered lanai and golf course views. Unwind on the brand-new, ultra-plush

Restoration Hardware sofa and designer swivel lounge chairs. For movie nights, enjoy a 65”

Smart TV (discreetly hidden in a custom TV lift cabinet), a premium Sonos home theater system

with soundbar/subwoofer, and complimentary Hulu with Disney+.

The gourmet kitchen is beautifully appointed with a gas range, wine fridge, and top-of-the-line appliances,

making it a pleasure to prepare everything from leisurely breakfasts to gourmet dinners.

The adjacent dining area provides an inviting space to gather with family and friends to savor delicious island-inspired meals and create lasting memories together.

Enjoy a resort-style outdoor retreat featuring a spacious heated pool and spa, a charming covered pergola with comfortable new seating,

and sweeping views of the North Course.

Float in the pool while watching golfers play Hole #3, or relax on one of the comfortable lounge chairs as you soak in the peaceful surroundings. Best of all, the heated pool is included at no additional charge.

The Sleeping Arrangements (Sleeps up to 12):

The layout offers maximum privacy, featuring three independent suites completely separated

from one another, plus a flexible fourth bedroom.

Primary Suite 1: King bed, direct pool access, and a massive spa-like ensuite with split

his-and-hers vanities, a massive walk-in shower with a 12" rain showerhead, and a deep

garden soaking tub that opens to an outdoor garden.

Primary Suite 2: King bed and a large private ensuite with a garden soaking tub and a

12" rain shower.

Suite 3 (Ohana Suite): King bed nestled in lush greenery with its own private ensuite

and Ultra-HD TV.

Bedroom 4: Two Twin XL beds (can be seamlessly combined into a King with a plush

topper upon request) and an HD TV.

Additional Space: A premium Restoration Hardware sleeper sofa in the living room

(sleeps 2) and two foldaway twin beds (best suited for children).

Make the most of your stay with thoughtfully curated amenities, including four pedal-assist e-bikes, additional hybrid bikes,

and a garage stocked with premium beach essentials—from snorkel gear and boogie boards to chairs, umbrellas, wheeled coolers, and more.

The Resort:

Perfectly situated in the heart of Mauna Lani, Nohea Kai places you just minutes from the resort's best beaches, golf, dining, shopping, and recreation.

Stroll, bike, or take a quick golf cart ride to The Shops at Mauna Lani for restaurants, cafés, boutique shopping, and a gourmet grocery store, or visit the resort's two luxury hotels for exceptional dining and breathtaking oceanfront sunsets.

The exclusive Owners Beach Club is an easy 8-minute bike ride away, where calm, crystal-clear waters and soft white sand create the perfect setting for snorkeling, swimming, paddle boarding, or simply relaxing. While you're there, enjoy oceanfront dining at Napua Restaurant.

For those who like to stay active, the Mauna Lani Sports & Fitness Club, along with championship golf, tennis, and pickleball, are all just minutes away.

Whether you're celebrating a birthday, anniversary, new job, retirement, or simply soaking up the sunshine,

Nohea Kai and the Mauna Lani Resort provide the perfect setting for an unforgettable stay.

Beyond offering an elegant yet comfortably furnished home, we know it's often the thoughtful details and small touches that truly elevate the experience.

You'll enjoy a curated selection of comforts and conveniences, including:

High-end luxury mattresses in all bedrooms for exceptional rest

Premium, hotel-quality bedding throughout

Spa-inspired shampoo, conditioner, and body wash

Fully equipped kitchen designed for cooking, baking, and BBQing with ease

The house was in great condition and was very comfortable. The kitchen was well appointed and easy to work in. Our favorite part was the bathroom with dual toilets!!

We very much enjoyed our time in this home-it was so beautiful, the art, the very quiet and gated neighborhood. The kitchen is well stocked with Wolf appliances, Miele built in coffee maker, ice maker-we really enjoyed preparing dinner together as a family as there was plenty of elbow room for all 6 of us. Being that it was such a quiet neighborhood you could hear the distant waves crashing at night. We also had access to the Beach Club for snorkeling and afternoon dips in the ocean-4 beach chairs and snorkel gear were available along with some pool floats in the garage. It was the perfect, restful-relaxing home for our family vacation.

We truly enjoyed this fabulous house in Mauna Lani. The house is well maintained, has an amazing floor plan, is equipped with everything you need. The closeness to the hotel and the beach is also a big plus. You can't do better than this! We loved it!!

It’s our third stay at this property and we love the house and neighborhood. This trip was sadly very different as there is some new policy about heating the pool and hot tub. You need to pay $300 extra to get the pool warm. We happily paid the extra but then weren’t allowed the freedom to heat the pool or hot tub outside of very limited hours. I liked getting up at 5 to watch the sunrise from the hot tub, but it’s not very pleasant when it’s cooled to 81 overnight. The kids like to go swimming early before breakfast but were cold. My wife hates being cold and barely used the pool this trip. After paying a small fortune in airfare, rental car, and a very expensive rental home, this penny pinching by the owner was unacceptable. I even offered to pay more than the $300 but no - very disappointed as I sit here and listen to my family complain about this trip.

We stayed here to celebrate my dad’s 70th birthday and we were not disappointed. The house was beautiful, exactly as pictured, and comfortably accommodated 3 different couples. The location was within walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and the beach. It was also a short drive to Kona and several other shopping centers. We were also able to utilize the fitness center at the clubhouse which was great. We would highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the island that wants all the comforts of a home vs staying at one of the local resorts.

We had trouble finding the property. The neighborhood itself was pretty barren with nothing much around. Our directions led us to the gated community, but didn’t include the house number. We contacted the owner after driving around for awhile and were given the full address. There was quite a bit of construction happening all around the house, which we wished we had known before making the reservation. It was a bit noisy during the day. This property itself was beautiful. Beds were comfortable, ample a/c and fans, well appointed kitchen and laundry facilities. Lovely furniture and decorations. Bedding and towels and all the necessary amenities were included.The pool area was lovely, but the pool itself was full of bugs and plant matter for the first couple of days (my kids refused to get in). A pool cleaner was sent out, which was appreciated, but we weren’t given any notice and discovered someone there early in the morning while in our pajamas. All in all, we loved the house itself, but weren’t a fan of the location as there wasn’t much nearby.
