Are you searching for a tropical oasis in the jungle with a private pool, just steps away from a beautiful secluded beach? Then you need to book this place! Mahalo Kai is the most romantic AirBnB we have ever stayed in. The house is beautiful and artfully decorated with everything you could need, including a 6 burner gas stove, wifi, TV (not that you need it, with that beautiful back yard and so much to do in the area) and outdoor shower. The state of the art private pool was the selling point for us, and boy were we not disappointed! We loved cooking down in it after our morning runs along the coastal road, and relaxing with a drink while listening to music on the Bluetooth speaker in the evenings. It was so romantic, and an excellent way to reconnect. I really hope we can come back one day!
Surroundings
There is a beautiful black sand beach a 5 minute walk away that we often went to. It has some waves but is good for swimming. The town of Pahoa is a 20 minute drive, and has a grocery store with great homemade smoothies and tons of organic and local products. Pele’s Kitchen for breakfast is great, and so is Kaleo’s for lunch of dinner! The fresh catch BLT and coconut crusted calamari are delicious!
