Hale Hualalai

This 3-star bed and breakfast, Hale Hualalai, sits in the hills above Kailua-Kona, offering panoramic ocean views and sunsets from private suites. The property features two identical Deluxe King Studio suites, each with a private entrance, balcony, private bathroom with Jacuzzi bathtub and large walk-in shower, king-sized bed, sitting area, sofa, electric kettle, TV, and carpeted floors. A gourmet breakfast made from local and on-site farm ingredients is served each morning at Hale Hualalai, with dishes like guava French toast with mango jelly and omelets alternating between sweet and savory. The property promotes permaculture with an on-site organic coffee farm, fruit trees, and free-range chickens, providing eggs for breakfast. Guests have access to free WiFi and free private parking, as well as a terrace and outdoor seating areas. Hale Hualalai is located 11 km from Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport and within a 16-minute walk of Hawaiian Gardens, 6 km from Ahu'Ena Heiau, and 9 km from Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park. The surrounding area includes coffee plantations and offers a tranquil setting away from Kailua-Kona's busy resort zones. The hosts, Ricky and Irina, provide local recommendations and cultural insights. The rooms stay cool naturally due to the elevation, eliminating the need for air conditioning.
