About this property

Spectacular Ocean View, Peace, Beauty, And Relaxation two to five guests

We invite you to explore Peaceful Hale, where abundant quiet and serenity, incredible views, sunsets and night skies with rolling hills and lots of open space await you at our end-of-the-road location. Nestled in the Kohala hills at 700' elevation, we enjoy bountiful sunshine (well over 300 days of sun a year) and perpetual, cooling breezes. This is a sturdily built southwestern design three bedroom house, with large wrap around lanai and all the amenities to make you feel very much at home, including a very well stocked kitchen and Weber BBQ for those who enjoy cooking, as well as indoor or outdoor showers with tubs for star-lit evening soaks. Spectacular view from every room. Experience a very unique, rural feel while being only minutes away from world class beaches, excellent snorkeling, diving, surfing, hiking, along with numerous and varied restaurants and the most popular big island resorts.

BEST STAY EVER!

Kalia and her home are equally wonderful! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and did not want to leave! It was truly the perfect oasis after a long day of exploring! Be sure to step outside and view the stars -we got to see the Milky Way! You won’t regret it-book it now!

Relaxing Retreat

My wife and I had a wonderful relaxing time at this beautifully maintained home. We love the gardens, the view of the ocean, and proximity to many wonderful beaches on the Kohala Coast. Kalia is a wonderfully responsive host and she is available while being sensitive to our privacy. Mahalo Kalia for another wonderful stay!

Magical Stay

To say we loved our stay at Kalia’s place is an understatement! House is beautiful, peaceful, well appointed with everything needed, beautiful views, and feels very private. All of us enjoyed our stay . The beds were comfortable. We had plenty of room to relax, and enjoy the beautiful beach nearby. You will not be disappointed!

Peaceful Hale is such an accurate name! And the views were the best!

We were immediately "wowed" by the landscaping surrounding the property. Felt like we were in our own private botanical garden...all lovingly planted and maintained by the owner! Then we were "wowed" again by the stunning and serene views. Incredible array of colors with the hills, mountain, sky, ocean, flowers, & trees. We so enjoyed sitting out back and taking it all in. The master bed was so comfortable and waking up to the view from our room was wonderful. Our friends said the queen bed in the other guest room was comfortable as well and they loved their view, too. The outdoor showers were great. Our host Kalia was lovely, and her home is incredibly well-cared for. Communication was easy, either in-person, phone or text. The check-in & check-out processes were a breeze. We would definitely stay again!

Great place to stay on the Big Island

Amazing house with spectacular views. Everything you need an more including yoga mats for yoga on the patio overlooking the ocean. Close to the best beaches to the south and some amazing sights on the wetter north end of the island (about 15 min either way). Out only complaint was that the third bed is in an alcove so don't expect much privacy if you are using it for a guest. All in all I would highly recommend it!

Wonderful stay in tropical garden with AMAZING VIEWS

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the location. It’s a beautiful garden setting with other worldly views of the ocean and the gold coast of the big island. The garden is gorgeous and well-maintained and absolutely part of the stay and the outdoor showers and baths are divine. The indoor showers our great too, but I mean when you’re in Hawaii have the outdoor shower with the fragrant flowers, right?. The house is really well situated with everything you need beautiful views from the bedroom the kitchen and the dining room a wonderful deck for playing entertaining. The owner provides a huge selection of stuff for beach, snorkeling, other activities on the big island. it’s only 10 minutes from a store and gas station, 15 minutes to one of the best beaches in the world, literally and 15 minutes from the amazing communities of Hawi and Kapaau. Whether it’s your 20th trip to the big Island or your first, I would highly recommend this space. The owner is incredibly sweet and respectful, and the communication with her was always timely and pleasant.

Even better then the pictures...

My mother-in-law, adult niece and I were fortunate enough to stay at this beautiful home for a week. Believe all the positive reviews. I could go on about the home, the gardens, outdoor showers, stars at night..the list is long. We spent the majority of our time on the lanai drinking in the expansive views. Went to Hapuna Beach for early morning swim just about every day. Hawi town and great hiking up north. Went to Waimea for private lei making experience. Had an awesome burger and award winning IPA at the Brewhaus. Learn about the culture at Historical park and site nearby. Really, I could go on and on. Communication with the owner was great. I would not change a thing..maybe one thing...shoulda' stayed longer! Aloha!

Perfect!

We had a wonder vacation is this lovely home. Peaceful and relaxing---just what we had been looking forward to--adding on comfortable, beautiful and welcoming. The outdoor space and gardens were also lovely. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen with the views facing front and back of the house. The indoor shower is just as enjoyable as the outdoor shower and tub-a full window is the wall of the shower so you feel like you could be outside. We loved the openness of the living room area of the house with the view out to the water. We really appreciated Kalia having beach chairs and umbrellas for our use. The house is in a perfect location for going to our favorites beaches. It didn't take long to get into a pattern of up about 7-breakfast at the house, pack a lunch, off to the beach, back in the afternoon, fix dinner, early bed! Kalia is a special person. She really cares that you enjoy your visit. We've stayed at other houses on the Big Island-this house is perfect!

Breathtaking Beauty and Serenity

This was our 2nd time at Kalia's and 1st time at Peaceful Hale. We could not have dreamt of a more perfect place to stay. Everything, and we mean everything, is wonderful! It is just as pictured in the photos and in Kalia's description. There is nothing lacking: incredible views from breathtaking sunrise skies to romantic sunsets to brilliant stars at night; lovely, artistic furnishings; an incredibly luxurious bed from which to watch the morning sunlight on the ocean; beautiful, lovingly tended gardens; really pretty outdoor showers that are so much fun; amazing quiet; spotlessly clean; a kitchen so spacious and well-stocked you can fix any meal easily; large lanai with comfortable patio furniture, a hammock and Weber gas grill; and the sweet, caring hospitality of Kalia. Kawaihae is a great location to stay on the Big Island, with charming restaurants and a short drive to beautiful beaches. Also, don’t miss two of our favorite places: the nearby Hamakua Macadamia Nut Company and Da Fish House (fish market) for the daily catch to grill back at the hale. This is absolutely the best VRBO we have ever stayed in and worth every single penny! Please do not hesitate to reserve Peaceful Hale for your stay on the Big Island, but leave some dates for us to return! Aloha Kalia! We so appreciate everything you have done to make Peaceful Hale an incredible home away from home.

Great place hidden in the nature

This place is made for persons who like to be out of busy towns. The way to find it is a bit tricky, because you have to go further than the end of the road by following a small path. The GPS stops at the dead end before. The house is surrounded by lots of plants. The house offers a lot of space and is very well decorated and shows the good taste of the owner. You will find all you need to spend a relaxing stay, from the kitchen ware to the beach gear all is at your disposal. You even can use the washing machine. The owner lives nearby and if any problem occurs, Kalia is there to help you. Living in the nature also means, that there are lots of animals around you (birds, butterflies, toads, all kind of insects) . The birds welcome you in the morning. To avoid insect bites take an insect repellent with you, because it would be a pity not to be able to benefit from the beautiful terrace with the amazing view. The hammoc is also a big plus. We enjoyed the additional outdoor showers very much. We can highly recommend this home for persons who like to be in a very relaxing place. Thanks a lot, Kalia, to offer this place for persons who visit the island.

Peaceful and Beautiful

Tucked away on a hillside with absolutely gorgeous landscaping and view. The very large lanai was a welcome place for afternoon cocktails, watching the changing sky into evening and enjoying the soft breeze. Mornings, also gorgeous, we woke to the sounds of birds inviting us to the lanai for coffee and papayas. Another highlight was the outdoor shower in the secluded back yard, also beautifully landscaped. The bed was super comfortable and the house well equipped. Probably perfect for families too but so nice to have whole house to ourselves. Would love to return. If you go you won’t be disappointed.

Perfect stay in paradise

This was our favorite home we’ve ever rented. The property was beautiful and peaceful with an amazing view of the ocean. Loved the outdoor shower and looking up at the stars. The home was very well stocked with cookware and anything else we needed to prepare meals. The grill was clean and worked well. In our 2 week stay we only went out to eat twice because we enjoyed cooking/grilling so much while eating on the outside patio. The owner was so helpful and nearby but respectful of our privacy. She even set us up on a sailboat snorkel cruise. We will definitely be back and are so grateful to have spent time in this gorgeous home on this gorgeous property.

Beyond Expectations in North Kohala

We're a small family of three (two adults, one 9yo) on a first time visit to any Hawaiian island. The big island and Kalia's house in N. Kohala turned out to be amazing strokes of luck. The 2BR house was fantastic and well stocked with beach and kitchen items. Kalia and her daughter were wonderfully warm and helpful, better hosts couldn't be asked for. We rented their car for the duration, highly recommended for reaching the amazing places around the island both close and far. Our stay was late Aug, early Sept which also worked well. Lot's of activities to join but fewer crowds and nice weather.

Exceptional!

I don't usually give five-star reviews, but this was the nicest rental we've ever stayed in. The house and gardens are stunning. The lanai was a wonderful place to spend time soaking in the gorgeous view, lovely flowers, chirping birds, and cooling breeze, perfect for sharing a meal or to read and relax. The kitchen was large, modern, and well-furnished. There was a wonderful flow to the house. The bathrooms were gorgeous. The outdoor showers were a delightful way to start the day. The house has snorkel equipment and boogie boards to borrow, which we greatly appreciated. There was plenty of room for two adults and two teens. It was peaceful and tranquil and beautiful. A perfect retreat! Don't hesitate! This place is heaven!

This must be the most beautiful rental we’ve ever stayed at. The views are spectacular from sun-up through stargazing at night. The lānai is perfectly set up to be outside with comfy lounge chairs, table and chairs, and a hammock. Landscaping is just stunning. Inside is also very comfortable for gathering and sleeping. The outdoor showers are so fun - just have to make sure you’re aware of the reverse temp controls. The owner does a great job respecting the land with soap products and composting. We lacked for nothing. I would very much enjoy coming back!

Wonderful, Peaceful Hale

This is the second time we have stayed on Kalia's property which, in itself speaks volumes. The first time was in her smaller unit down the hill from the one we stayed out this time. This unit, the Peaceful Hale was just perfect for the two of us, although it would easily accommodate four. The house if beautifully furnished and restful. It is surrounded by fabulous gardens that screen all sides (except the magnificent ocean views) and the delicious fragrance of flowers drifted through the rooms. There was almost always a slight breeze to enjoy on the lanai, and the house itself was comfortable even after being closed up for most of a day. There were three tower fans for any times it was a little warm. The Hale is down a long driveway, far away from other neighbors. Its very safe because of the isolation. Not a dog barking was heard. Birds gently awakened us in the cool mornings. The kitchen was not huge, but it lacked for nothing in terms of cooking appliances and utensils. We enjoyed the master bedroom/bath outdoor shower every day of our stay - it was heavenly. Nearby Spencer Beach State Park was one of our favorite places to hang out, people watch, enjoy the beach and watch for whales. It was also fun watching the surfers and boogie boarders at nearby Kawaihae Harbor - also a great place for a picnic. For snorkelers, the Mahukona Beach Park, 10 miles away, provides a great, protected water entry point. And all the snorkel (and other beach) gear you would ever need is available in the Peaceful Hale garage. Kalia is a great host who is very pleasant and attentive. We would highly recommend the Peaceful Hale for couples and families. You won't want to leave.

About the host

Hosted by Kalia Naia

Host profile image
I have been living on this beautiful island for 25 years after living in the Trinity mountains of Northern California for 25 years. I feel very blessed to live here and to have experienced the mountains also. I have had my other vacation rental for 13 years and love the business for many reasons.
I feel grateful and proud to be able to offer this beautiful home for your home away from home.

Why they chose this property

After living in the mountains of the NW I was wanting warm winters. I was pleasantly surprised to find this area with the temperature staying between the mid 60s and high 80's year around along with the "friendly" ocean environment. Feels like heaven!

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with this property for the incredible views, end of road location, spacious feel, and perfect climate. I built the home with forms that then get concrete poured in to make very thick concrete walls. It has proven to be a perfect way to build for this area.
