The CheCa Hale Experience

CheCa Hale is an airy, two-bedroom, two-bathroom, third floor corner penthouse unit. It is nestled in a choice location within the Keauhou Kona Surf & Racquet Club (the "Club"), a gated resort community that has long been a priority destination for savvy repeat guests due to its central location and island-friendly design. The condo boasts a spacious, open concept layout and just under 1200 square feet of living space remodeled in 2022. Expansive windows spotlight gorgeous views throughout the condo.

In common island style, the primary king suite is separated from the primary living space by noise-buffering sliding shoji doors. The adjoining remodeled bathroom has a walk-in shower with detachable shower head and stacked washer and dryer. The spacious Club‑facing secondary king bedroom enjoys views of flowering trees. The remodeled secondary bathroom also has a tiled walk-in shower with detachable shower head. Two convertible (not pull-out) sofas are available in the living room and appropriate for single child sleepers (43" wide).

Sunrise from CheCa Hale treats you to explosions of color over Mauna Loa’s foothills and the melodic sounds of Hawai’i’s singing birds. At any time of day, relax in the comfortable lounge chairs on the 350 square foot wrap-around covered lanai (balcony) with a beverage and take in the golf course and ocean view or enjoy some quiet reading time.

After busy days exploring the island's bounty, return to a fully appointed space with everything you are likely to need to prepare a relaxed meal at home. The kitchen showcases natural stone countertops and new appliances, cookware, dinnerware, drink and barware, and utensils. Dine outdoors while gazing down a greenway of Kona Country Club’s ("KCC") 18-hole golf course. Tee times for the course, which extends directly alongside the island’s coastline, may be booked directly with KCC at a discounted rate for Club guests.

The Club sits on nearly 20 beautifully landscaped acres. Be sure to explore the several ancient Hawaiian archaeological sites located within the Club grounds during your stay. Other amenities include three lighted tennis courts, a volleyball court, a pickle ball court, an outdoor ping pong table, a large swimming pool that can accommodate lap swimming, several bar-b-ques and other common spaces available for use. 

In the evening, take a leisurely stroll on the community’s oceanside cliff path to its private beach, the perfect place to rest with a bottle of wine and watch Kona’s renowned sunsets. Nighttime at the Club includes dark skies littered with bright stars. Don't forget to keep an eye out for one of the frequently seen shooting stars and make a wish! 

Located just 5 miles south of downtown Kona, CheCa Hale’s central location is ideal for when you are ready to venture out and explore the Big Island. Kahalu'u Beach Park, known as one of the best snorkeling and surfing beaches on Hawai’i, is less than a 10-minute walk from CheCa Hale. In quiet times, you may be the sole focus of interested fish or see a protected green turtle surface to eat moss from the rocks. Magic Sands beach is a mere 5-minute drive. You may get to see the sand disappear and reappear at this destination spot during your stay!  

Keauhou Shopping Center is also a short walk or drive away and offers the convenience of a full grocery store, an organic farmer’s market every Saturday, multiple restaurants and bars, a pharmacy, a cinema, and free Hawaiian cultural events throughout the week. CheCa Hale is also located just minutes from Keauhou Bay where you can charter catamaran rides, Manta Ray watching tours and more. You can head south to reach Honaunau Bay (Two-Step) and Kealakekua Bay (home of the Captain Cook monument) within about 30 minutes; or take advantage of fast and convenient access to Queen Ka’ahumanu Highway to head North to the renowned white sand beaches near Waikoloa.

For your convenience, CheCa Hale is stocked with four beach lounge chairs, two beach umbrellas, fast-drying beach towels, a boogie board, food and beverage coolers, two tennis rackets, tennis balls, four pickle ball paddles and balls, a volleyball and a frisbee.

CheCa Hale features traditional island construction. The roomy interior and sprawling vistas are worth the energy expended on this walk-up property. The layout maximizes flow of the Hawaiian trade winds through the unit. The condo was also retro-fitted with mini-split AC in October 2023 to keep the condo cool and comfy when the winds are quiet.

A designated parking space is assigned to the unit, making parking a breeze at any time. Keyless entry means no lost keys and round-the-clock property management support is available to assist you should the need arise.
