Our property has been a vacation rental house for 16 years.
At night the ocean sound is your lullaby to get you to sweet dreams. Kehena Makai is beautifully furnished in classic Hawaiiana style rattan. The two bedrooms both have wide oceanfront view and its own bathroom with shower. Suitable for family or two adult couples to have an low key, relaxing Hawaiian vacation. The woven bamboo ceiling and local Hawaiian art work add to the authentic ambiance.
The house is built in the traditional sugar cane style and yet newly constructed in 2001 and finished in 2007. This is a classic Hawaiian home in upscale materials and design. As you open the entry door, you see a 16' glass sliding door between you and the ocean. The kitchen, dining and seating "great room" is 17' wide with 16' high ceiling. All the furniture is rattan, the sectional, dining set and barstools with brand new Sunbrella cushions. The decor is Hawaiiana right down to the surfboards and traditional local crafts. There is a desk, TV with Wifi and a large collections of books about Hawaii culture and history. The floors through out the house are porcelain tile. The kitchen counters are rain forest marble tiles. Light fixtures are retro-tropical to complete the look.
On either side of the great room are master bedrooms with showers that have ocean views. The bedrooms face the ocean and have 6' windows. Even the windows on the sides of the bedrooms have ocean views. You will appreciate the views and the windows that all open for the sea breeze. The showers in each bathroom are quite large and feature unique local touches.
The sliding doors in the great room open onto a 35' lanai perched 40' above sea level. It is 53' to the water from the lanai. There are very few places anywhere in Hawaii this close to the waters edge. The lanai has a Made in USA dining set and 2 swivel rockers, lounge chairs and ottomans.
The lanai at the front of the house has an American made patio dining set. This lanai is private and offers full sun. Dining here can be out of the trade winds and away from the porch lights.
There is a carport and covered entry stairs in the old Hilo style as it does rain at night especially. Locals fish off the pali below the house and opihi pickers test their luck at low tides. There is no ocean access below the house due to the rough waves most of the times. And remember to never turn your back on the ocean like the Hawaiians always say, rogue waves do appear. Never let your children be downstairs at the ocean front unattended.
The laundry room is downstairs, accessed from outside the house. Besides washer and dryer there are some ice chests and beach chairs. Beach towels are in the closet in the right hand side bedroom. There's a cooler and handy bags in the laundry room and the closet upstairs, there maybe snorkel gear, reef slippers and beach toys but sometimes they get misplaced. The yard is landscaped with orchids, heliconia, ginger and monstera. There is an ocean side outdoor shower under the lanai.
Please note that we do not take same day check in and check out. If the day has a guest leaving please do not book it.
