About this house rental

Nestled on an acre of private and quiet lush tropical grounds with heated pool and hot tub, Heart of Hualalai is your dream home, away from home, in Kona coffee country.


Heart of Hualalai is a peaceful space where natural beauty and serenity meet mindful architectural design, environmental consciousness and high technology. A home that you can work remotely from, for weeks on end, with complimentary gigabit internet service and mesh Wi-Fi throughout. Heart of Hualalai includes four private bedrooms and comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests on luxurious memory foam mattresses, linens and bedding.


At Heart of Hualalai, feel a world away, yet close to everything as the home is located less than 10 minutes from downtown Kona and local beaches. Expansive ocean, coastline and garden views, from Keauhou Bay in the south to the Kona airport in the north are ever present. There is nothing quite as soul soothing as gazing westward to the ocean while sipping a cup of hot Kona coffee in the morning or enjoying the epic sunsets with a frosty beverage, from the lanai bar, in the evening.


Heart of Hualalai is sited strategically across its park-like grounds - hidden from the street and behind private gates. The three interconnected structures: main house (kitchen/DR/LR/3BR/2BA), master cottage suite (LR/1BR/1BA) and caretaker’s studio, together with multiple lanais and breezeway sitting area, total over 4,000 square feet of indoor and covered outdoor living space. There are many cozy nooks and thoughtful built-ins throughout.


The architectural design of Heart of Hualalai takes full advantage the property’s 1,000-foot, cooler, elevation. Coastal and mountain breezes, day and night, keep the home at an ideal temperature and render air conditioning truly unnecessary. Your days will be kissed by a gentle onshore flow, while the night offers the gift of cool mountain breezes for the perfect sleep. Coqui frogs are often heard throughout the night and the neighborhood roosters start their day jobs early.


Heart of Hualalai’s thoughtful and creative tropical design including beautiful hand-crafted French and clerestory windows, high ceilings, raw-cut cedar walls, numerous built-in seats and nooks, and gorgeous views out of every window. The home incorporates materials consistent with its tropical ethos, including solid mahogany, teak and koa cabinets, ipe hardwood floors, and fossil-inspired porcelain tile. The open kitchen is a chef’s delight configured for serious cooking and entertaining.


Numerous paths meander through the terraced gardens at Heart of Hualalai. The property has many tropical fruit trees and plants to enjoy, including: bananas, avocados, mangos, passion fruits, vanilla orchids, lemons, limes and oranges. The property also features a wood-fired pizza oven, TWO laundry centers, luggage storage room, two outdoor showers and numerous mosaic features.


New to Heart of Hualalai, in 2023, is a home fitness center; everything to keep you in shape during your stay.


Heart of Hualalai’s provides an immersive audio and video experience throughout. Each living space and bedroom is equipped with Sonos speakers and 4K smart TVs. The office nook, in the master cottage, has a dedicated 4k monitor, office chair, dock/attachments for PC and Mac laptops, keyboards/mice, wireless laser printer, etc.


The spa is heated with a high efficiency, on-demand, heat pump set to 102 degrees. The pool is heated through a rooftop solar system designed to keep the pool between 80 and 85 degrees for your comfort. Generally, the pool will be warmer on sunnier days and cooler on cloudier days.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at the Heart Of Hualalai! Laurens was a gracious host and the on-site property manager, Heidi, was so helpful as well. Everything was easy as far as arrival and the house had everything we needed to relax as soon as we unpacked.The property grounds and pool and spa are gorgeous. My kids loved swimming in the pool and exploring the grounds. Our group of 7 (5 adults and 2 kids) had plenty of room to spread out. There were so many cozy and view filled spots to sit and enjoy the property or read a good book, of which there are many. There was also a cabinet full of games and a drawer of craft supplies. We loved cooking in the well appointed kitchen with a full array of spices and everything we could possibly need. The coffee bar also had everything we needed! We appreciated the laundry room, the fully stocked supply of beach bags, chairs, snorkel gear and boogie boards!The location is wonderful, we loved being up on the hillside and enjoyed watching the sun set into the ocean. The closest beaches, downtown Kona and grocery stores were only about 10 minutes away. The tiny charming town of Holualoa is just a 4-5 minute drive.This house is truly the perfect vacation house. Everything was so thoughtfully curated and we felt very cared for. Laurens was a kind and thoughtful host who checked in with us and even helped make sure we were able to make it to see episode 50 of Kilauea at Volcano Natl. Park. Just book it and enjoy!

My family had a great time at the house. We had a group of 10 and there was plenty of room for everyone. My husband and I really enjoyed having our own space with its own bathroom. laundry, and living room. The kitchen was very well equipped all supplies "top notch" and we enjoyed cooking several meals in it. The house is close to everything you need to enjoy your stay including shops, restaurants and beaches. The view, gardens and pool area are all spectacular. I wanted my family to experience a traditional Hawaiian vibe during their stay and this house and grounds delivered! The hosts and Heidi (caretaker) were great and provided several tips and recommendations along the way. It was a privilege to stay 8 nights in such a beautiful place!

Our group of eight had an amazing stay at Heart of Hualalai. The property was beautiful, spotless, and perfectly located for exploring the island. The accommodations were very comfortable and well-appointed, making it feel like a true home away from home. We especially loved the peaceful atmosphere, the beautiful pool and spa and the stunning surroundings. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we would gladly stay here again. Owner, Laurens, and caretaker, Heidi, were extremely helpful and attentive. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Big Island!
