Welcome to the East-side of Hawaii and Kai Honu Hale, the Ocean Turtle House! This 3-level oceanfront gem in Hawaiian Beaches offers a unique floating-on-water experience with its proximity to the Pacific Ocean.

Throughout the year, from every room in this 2-bedroom house and 1 studio loft (with open bedroom concept) and 2 baths, you'll enjoy 180-degree unobstructed ocean views. Witness magnificent sunrises, playful dolphins, turtles, and even up-close whale sightings during winter months.

Our house is in an ideal neighborhood for walks. Relax on outdoor lounge chairs with stunning ocean views. Just 7 minutes from Pahoa town, offering various dining options, and 45 minutes from the Hawaii Volcano National Park.

The living room boasts panoramic windows with daily turtle sightings. Amenities include a 37' flat-screen TV and free Wi-Fi. A charcoal BBQ is available for your use; just bring your charcoals.

Experience paradise at Kai Honu Hale, where the ocean becomes your daily companion, and your Hawaiian dream vacation awaits.

We loved it so much we re-booked before checking out

Amazing location where the back yard neighbor is the Pacific! The ocean sounds are soothing. We viewed turtles and frolicking whales right from the back porch. We booked our 2025 stay before we checked out of our 2024 stay! Once we decide on vacation dates, we’ll be booking again! As a matter of fact we would change our vacation dates if needed to book this amazing place!

Fabulous Views

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was nice, but definitely needs some TLC. That did not deter from the beauty of the water below. We saw a turtle nearly everyday. It was a great place to visit all the sites nearby and we enjoyed the small town of Pahoa. The house was furnished well. Kitchen well stocked. We were grateful for the washer and dryer as well! All in all, very relaxing. The beds were good. We had one night that was very wet and it was a little humid in the house. But listening to the waves hit those rocks put me to sleep everytime! Thanks Liv!

Amazing spot!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Three bedrooms gave everyone their own space. Well equipped kitchen for family get together meals. Sitting outside to watch the ocean right out front during the day was amazing and star gazing at night was unbelievable. A memorable stay!

If you love ocean breeze and pounding surf, this is it

This is a great little house, very well designed to take advantage of its fabulous ocean view that all rooms get to enjoy. Description very accurate, manager super responsive. It's for the kind of guest who likes to throw all the windows open and listen to the wind and the thundering waves. If that's you, take it. Excellent for whale watching, too.

Amazing view, right on the water in a quiet neighborhood. Very relaxing with the sound of the waves crashing. Also nice bonus that they don’t have a long “to-do” list upon checkout like many other places do. We had a great stay!

Excellent location and exactly as described

The property was exactly as described. Great location and central to all we wanted to do. We slept great with ocean breezes and never had a problem with no a/c. The driveway was steep but we knew that from our instructions and we expected that with level where we parked and unloaded.

This property has incredible views! It’s definitely an older home than is in need of some updating but the beauty of the crashing ocean waves mostly makes up for it. There was no dishwasher or air conditioning but that didn’t affect

Comfy beds, great view, needs some updates

Overall, it was a good stay, and I would stay here again. The view and sounds of the ocean were amazing as promised. The beds were comfortable, which is a huge priority for me. The location is not super convenient to activities, but it is a quiet neighborhood. The only major complaint for us was the living room furniture. Every piece was uncomfortable and falling apart. There was no really comfortable place to sit together and chat.

Magical

We got to the house right as hurricane Hone was approaching the island and loved watching the waves from the safety of the home. We were able to see turtles and dolphins from the living room! Also very quiet and relaxed neighborhood. Note that the closest beach access is 40 min away in Hilo.
