Welcome to your home away from home, Hale Ke Kai, “where the land and sea meet.” You will come to find out why so many local residents and visitors call it one of the best units at Colony I. We feel honored to have the opportunity to show you the reasons so many have fallen in love with the islands. Those reasons are here to be found in abundance.
The Big Island is our home and we go to great lengths to help you feel at home too. This spacious and beautifully furnished one bedroom condo is single level with absolutely no steps. Although it is considered a condo, there are no upstairs or downstairs neighbors, only the back wall of the closet is shared. Hale KeKai is unit #23 at the Sea Mountain Resort. The lanai (patio) is very private. Speaking of the lanai, “Wow!” is the usual response. Sweeping unobstructed ocean views that blend gently without interruption into an incredible mountain view. This is Hawaii, your Hawaii.
A high quality king size bed in the master bedroom will combine with the soft breezes and gentle lull of the waves to bring calm wondrous dreams of the beauty of the real Hawaii. The living and dining areas also have sweeping ocean views and are outfitted tastefully yet comfortably as this is as much our home as yours. The living area also boasts a fold out sofa bed that we have slept on ourselves and is very comfortable.
The kitchen with range, oven, microwave, full size fridge, coffee/espresso maker, dishwasher, and small appliances is well stocked with quality flat ware, a variety of teas, and condiments and spices to get you started on the meal of your choice.
The bathroom has a cavernous granite tiled shower that is an easy step inside. We love every corner of this place and believe you will too.
Enjoy some world famous Ka’u Coffee on the lanai or hang out at the pool or hot tub with new found friends, either way you will be glad to have found one of the world’s hidden gems. Punaluu Black Sand Beach, consistently voted one of the Top Ten Black Sand Beaches in the World, is only a few minutes’ walk away. Sunbathe beneath the palms, snorkel with turtles, or watch them haul up on the beach. For the more adventuresome, hike out either direction and re-discover Hawaiian historical sites (please show due respect to all archaeological sites and observe proper viewing distance and rules regarding all marine creatures).
Hale Ke Kai is perfect for any family or couple seeking the trip of a ...

We really enjoyed staying at Hale Kekai! The hale was very private, very comfortable and well stocked which made it so easy for us to settle in. The gorgeous Hawaiian paintings and artwork added flair and character! The lanai was also very private with sweeping, unobstructed views of the ocean that were amazing! We liked to chill there, watching the sun rise, reading books, and eating meals. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and the coffee grinder was a welcome surprise. We found all the furniture to be very comfortable, too. We took several strolls down to Punalu’u Black Sand beach, and we referenced the Hale Kekai Insiders Guide to explore nearby historic sites and foot trails and other smaller beaches. Many thanks to Jeff, the owner, for researching and writing that guide and sharing it. What a treasure! During our stay Jeff was very responsive and kindly let us enjoy our last morning at the hale; no departing chores like many rentals require. Our 3-night stay was too, too short! Hope we can return in the future!

Check in was easy, the place was ready and had everything we needed. The location was excellent for volcano national park, green sand beach and black sand beach was super close! We had a fabulous stay!

This condo is amazing. It has everything you need and more. Communication with the owner was excellent. We will definitely stay here again, if it’s available when we are on the island. Jutta

This is a nice quiet place on the south end if the island close to the black sand and green sand beaches. It is a great place to relax and a good place to serve as home base when exploring the island. This unit has great view from the back patio.

Beautiful place, perfect lay out of rooms with south-facing patio. Neighbors next door, but patio was very private. Pool was great for the kids. Black sand beach is wonderful, saw lots of green turtles. Best bakery ever in the nearest village.
