Welcome to Kinohi at He'eia. Set upon a bluff above the sparkling waters of He'eia Bay in historic Keauhou, this exceptional oceanfront estate was thoughtfully reimagined and rebuilt in 2017. Keauhou carries profound significance in the history of Hawai'i Island. Directly mauka of this property, the great Keauhou Holua, the Royal Slide, once descended more than a mile down the HualÄlai slope to He'eia Bay. Built in honor of Kauikeaouli, who would become Kamehameha III, chiefs raced wooden sleds to the sea at speeds rivaling a modern toboggan. To be here is to stand at the end of that extraordinary run. The main residence spans two stories with 5 bedrooms and 3 baths, while a separate permitted guest house adds versatility for extended family or rental income. Together, the compound accommodates up to 14 guests "” a rare combination of scale, privacy, and setting. A fully equipped kitchen anchors the home, split-zoned air conditioning tempers the warmth of the island, and upstairs bedrooms open toward He'eia Bay with a lanai off the master suite. Outside, a resort-style pool and spa anchor the outdoor living space, framed by tropical landscaping "” ulu, Samoan coconut palms, lilikoi, mango, lime and lemon trees "” plus a sprawling lawn, gazebo, and double hammock at the ocean's edge. In season, humpback whales breach offshore! Weekly maintenance keeps the property immaculate. An outdoor gas grill completes the setting for effortless entertaining at sunset. The grounds reflect layers of history, a KÅnane board, and a peace pole. The property carries an active, transferable short term vacation rental registration in a resort-zoned area with a proven multi-year track record. Oceanfront estates of this scale, setting, and history arrive once in a generation.
