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.

Heart of Hualalai looks forward to welcoming your family! For more details, photos and reviews please search "HeartOfHualalai" online.

I have stayed at many rental homes, and this one had ALL the comforts of home-- and more! The cookware was top-notch, with every spice you could ever need, and coffee ready for the following day if you arrived late. So well organized and had everything you could need for your stay. The views & sunsets were perfect, and we just wanted never to leave the house! Also, Sonos is throughout the home; there is an area to exercise and even a work desk if needed. We want to move into this house and never leave! We will be coming back to stay again. We also relied on the recommendations book in digital form AND hard copy at the house. They thought of EVERYTHING! Thank you, Laurens & Kimberly.

This was the best rental we have stayed at! Both the kitchen and bathrooms were extremely well stocked. Communication with the owner and property manager was easy and clear. The property has plenty of space, an amazing view and beautiful grounds. Don’t hesitate to book here…it was the highlight of our 2 week trip!

This is a beautiful, comfortable house with everything our family needed for a great Kona vacation. We brought a group of eight adults and found plenty of space for getting together and for time on our own. The house is beautifully decorated, has a great view of the ocean, and the owners were very attentive. And, of course, there’s lots of fun things to do on the Big Island. Our gang called it our “best vacation yet.”

All I can say is WOW! We just recently returned from our trip and I can only say great things about this lovely home and Laurens, Kimberly and Gabby. It was a dream from day 1 until the day that we left. The home is exceptional! There is nothing that they have forgotten. It is spacious and beautifully decorated. It was very clean and well maintained. We like to cook and the kitchen was a true chefs' kitchen. We could not get over how well it was stocked. I am still missing my favorite coffee cup that I adopted during our stay. The gardens were beautiful and we really enjoyed picking the fresh pineapples, bananas, limes and lemons. The open floor plan and feeling the breeze through the doors and windows was lovely. I never once missed air conditioning the entire stay. The pool was great and the views from every porch were out of a magazine. It is just a short drive down to the waterfront and we took their many suggestions for dinner spots. Gabby was a sweetheart and was delightful to talk to. You honestly never know what you might be renting just based on pictures but I can say that this home was so much more. Thank you so much for sharing your gorgeous home with us. We will definitely be back! - The McCowan's

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Heart of Hualalai estate! From the moment we arrived, the spacious and private Hawaiian home greeted us with 180° jaw-dropping ocean/town views. Exquisite decor detailed every room. There is ample seating around the property intermixed with well stocked towels, toiletries, and supplies. The open kitchen is a chef's delight! Every morning, we peacefully sipped coffee on the deck- enjoying the views and serenaded by the island wildlife. We took advantage of the snorkeling equipment to explore nearby beaches and relaxed daily at the newly constructed pool and hot tub on the property. A review cannot adequately cover this home's endless amenities for families of all ages, exquisite detail, and quality. Most of all, it was hard to leave a real-life 'Hawaiian dream'. This house is a 'must-stay' when visiting the Big Island!!!

My family gathered at the Heart of Hualalai for the best holiday we've shared, largely due to this magical setting. We ranged in age from 11 months to 71, and all were perfectly accommodated. Our hosts were generous with information (their color-coded guide to the island is great) and had stocked the fridge with goodies for our arrival. The kitchen was a dream to cook in, boasting every appliance and implement one could need. The house itself is beautifully designed, with breathtaking views from every room. For our extended family, there were great places to gather and to take time apart. There are beach toys, chairs, umbrella, coolers and snorkeling equipment (we found some amazing nearby snorkel spots). There are also pool toys. The house is generously stocked with toiletries and items possibly forgotten in travel. The gardens are amazing, and the birds and geckos became regular visitors. Our friendly neighbor showed us the myriad plant species and introduced us to his chameleon. Although we were there during heat and humidity, Heart of Hualalai was always comfortable, with the natural air flow and cooler temps at 1000 feet. My 4 year old granddaughter was in the ocean or the pool every possible moment. This house is a special place. We travel often, and this is one of the nicest places we've stayed. We only wish it could have been for longer. We all highly recommend HofH!

If you're reading this review you've undoubtedly already seen the pictures, and let us tell you, they do not do it justice. The house has incredibly beautiful architecture, fantastic decor, all of the amenities you can think of and some you probably didn't realize you needed. The view is an uninterrupted 180° of ocean, which can bee seen from every room in the house, including insane veiws of the entirety of downtown Kona. The primary bedroom is actually a whole separate house of it's own, with everything but it's own kitchen. The entire acre of property is meticulously landscaped with crazy/huge/interesting plants that can only be found here in Hawaii. There are stairways and paths crisscrossing all over the property, allowing up-close enjoyment of the exotic garden. We have been to various places in Hawaii a few times now, and the islands have activities and sights everywhere you look, but to have a property like this to call home for the trip was a whole different experience. We were perfectly content spending several days of the trip just hanging out at the house, enjoying the pool, hot tub, and epic view. To top this all off, the host, Laurens, was outstanding to work with throught the whole booking process and stay. He was very communicative, and offered extremely quick assistance with any question we had throughout our trip. Not to mention, he was just a very cool, personable dude!
