50' from the ocean, full ocean views from bedrooms & lanai

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.
Our Hawaiian State Tax IDs are as follows: GE-172-570-0096-01 and TA-172-570-0096-01, STVR Registration #: 19-369232.

Wow and more wow!
This property is fantastic! Beautiful and clean! So comfortable! The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. The bedrooms were perfect. But, we could not get over the amazing location. Stars! Whales! Rainbows! Waves!We did our grocery shopping on our way since this home is tucked away. Additionally, screenshot the entry code in case it’s dark when you arrive because cell service might not be available. I hope we’ll be able to return in the near future.

On the ocean
It has always been my dream to stay in a house right on the ocean, sitting on a lanai and watching the waves. This stay completely fulfilled that dream. The house is very nice, beautifully furnished, and equipped with excellent kitchen appliances. It is located on a very quiet street, about a one-hour drive from the center of Hilo. There is a ceiling fan in every room, and with all the windows open, the ocean breeze allowed us to sleep comfortably without AC. I would highly recommend this house.

Return Visit
Excellent location. So wonderful we never left to do anything. Just sitting on the deck watching the waves roll in was mesmerizing and relaxing . It had everything we needed. It is showing a bit of wear in the year since our last visit and could do with a little maintenance on the very front door and sliding door. Overall, we were thrilled and already planning a third visit

The back lanai doesn't disappoint!!!
If you are staying here it is for one reason only, the back lanai...and it doesn't disappoint!! The pictures can never do the listing justice and the crashing of the ocean sounds awesome. You most certainly need to rent a vehicle for this place. The only thing we felt that should be mentioned and isn't currently part of the listing info is that this place has NO air conditioning. For those of us who keep a cool cave of a bedroom at home, this is unfortunate. With overnight temps in the low 70's and humidity over 90%, if you aren't used to it, you notice it quick. If that's no biggie for you, then you are in for a treat here as the view and sounds are second to none!!

Coastal delight
This was my second time staying at this location. It's a 5 star value in all regards. A beautiful home with a great layout in an amazing location. The delight of just relaxing on the lanai or going out becomes one of the most difficult choices to make. I will be back for a 3rd stay and have no hesitation recommending it to others.

This house is wonderful! Property is beautiful. We were a little disappointed that you couldn't really get down on the lava flow but you could walk down the street and go out. Also this property is A LONG WAY from everything. 2 1/2 hours to Kona, almost an hour to Hilo and over 45 minutes to Volcano National Park.
