Welcome to Keauhou Estates

A Royal Welcome on the Big Island

Majestic homes set 500 feet above sea level feature sweeping coastline and ocean views, where one can search for whales and dolphins in the distance and savor spectacular Kona sunsets. For those who choose it, some homes feature golf frontage with great views of the fairways.
 
Within this private, gated community, there is plenty of room for family to gather and enjoy an upscale Hawaiian lifestyle. Sparkling infinity pools with swim-up bars, spacious lounges, and gourmet kitchens with gas ranges, and outdoor rainfall showers are just some of the exquisite features of Keauhou Bay estate homes, all expertly crafted and sitting on generously proportioned lots. Even more distinctive are the homes that incorporate natural lava landscape into their designs. With an eye to the history and authenticity of the Hawaiian story, Keauhou Estates is a dream neighborhood.

Things to Do

Staycations are the way to go when you live at Keauhou Estates. Homes here are close to major Kona-area attractions, as well as Kamakahonu Beach and Magic Sands Beach. This is also one of the best places in Hawaii to steep oneself in local history at sites such as the Ahuena Heiau, Mokuaikaua Church, Hulihee Palace, and ancient fishponds and temples found throughout the region. 
 
Warm, sunny days beckon residents outside for snorkeling at Kahalu’u Beach (it’s like a real-life aquarium with its sea turtles, coral heads, and vividly-hued fish), deep-sea fishing, whale watching, hiking, surfing, diving, bird watching, and kayaking. The Kona Country Club’s Mauka golf course is convenient to the neighborhood and is known for its spectacular fairways, excellent facilities, and friendly service. There’s a fully-stocked pro shop, a driving range off the grass, a putting and chipping green, and a short-game practice area, including bunker practice.
