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!...

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

The house was perfect, it was as wonderful as described on the Vrbo site. Our questions and requests were met as expected and we were very satisfied. They also tuned the piano. Everything we needed was there. We enjoyed the sunsets, hot tub, hammock,waterfall,BBQ, piano, ocean views, birds chirping, flowers, etc. We had so much fun it was hard to leave. We would definitely use your services again.

Having stayed in VRBOs around the world…. NOTHING compares to the home, views and accommodations we had here in Kona…. 100% will be coming back as our entire family felt right at home.
