Welcome to The Ilio Hale!
Our spacious, fully furnished, family friendly retreat is located within the prestigious gated subdivision of Kahakai Estates in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island, Hawaii. The historic Great Wall of Kuakini runs along the back of the property, while a natural wildlife reserve attracts exotic birds in front - directly across the street. This 3 bedroom 2.5 bathroom home is situated on a half acre of manicured land, boasts breathtaking ocean and sunset views throughout the neighborhood, and offers luxurious living while providing all of the conveniences of home.
Your comfort is important! Ilio Hale keeps you cool with Central Air throughout... An open floor plan and natural lighting creates a nice flow through the living room, kitchen, and dining area. The master bedroom flaunts garden views, a cozy cal-king bed, Cable TV/DVD and his-and-her vanity sinks with a soaking tub/stand alone shower in the attached master bathroom. While the two other guest rooms are equipped with comfortable queen and full-sized beds, an additional queen sized air mattress is provided in the den/office to accommodate larger parties.
Outdoors, the lanai (patio) is furnished with table/seating and gas barbecue. A large gated driveway extends beyond the length of the home providing ample parking and allowing for easy loading/unloading. Two kayaks, a bike, boogie boards and other extras are available for your use throughout your stay. Ocean access is within walking distance and it's a short 2 minute drive to the heart of this beautiful town.
Your enjoyment is our priority! As such, we are available to address any questions or concerns throughout your stay. In addition to our responsive property manager, we've also procured an Expedia Local Expert to assist in the planning of your trip should you choose to utilize such service. Upon booking you may request our concierge (free of charge) if you'd like to work through the details of your time in Hawaii before you arrive. Furthermore, this rental is equipped with our "Aloha Book", which answers common questions, provides operating details of the home, and suggests best ways to explore the Big Island - see excerpt below.
Mahalo for considering The Ilio Hale. We hope to accommodate your Ohana and become your "home away from home". Aloha

We stayed here a month, three of us the whole time. We had other family members join us at different times. Leland was very quick to get back to us about any inquiries. The house was a bit under stocked for a month but it is well stocked now as we added a lot of things to keep our life comfortable and easy while here.

My family and I visited the Island for a week while we visited some family members. Our stay was top notch. The home was very clean and in an amazing location. Just minutes from shops, restaurants, and the ocean. Our kids loved the large back yard where they had the space to run and play in the grass.

Owner n property manager were very helpful. They allowed us to have our dog with us-which was very important to us. Beautiful house in a nice quiet neighborhood and a short drive to wherever you wanna go.

Excellent communication and the house keeper was excellent help throughout the trip. They were a great help with any additional needs, a few more utensils in the kitchen is required :)
Thanks for a great home stay

This property is perfect for anyone wanting that at home experience. The house is well maintained, clean and gives you the feeling of being at home. Being in a gated community makes you feel safe. Having a dog park close by made it great for my dogs that we brought for our staycation. Had a wonderful time and will definitely return! Thank you so much Leland for letting us stay at your property. Maggie thank you for meeting us promptly and showing us the features of the home. Awesome place to stay for anyone wanting that at home feeling!
