5 BIG ISLAND DREAM HOMES THAT WILL HAVE YOU PACKING YOUR BAGS

We’d all love to pack our bags, leave the mainland, and enjoy living in the lap of luxury on the Big Island. While we probably aren’t going to win the lottery anytime soon, there’s no harm in dreaming right? Here are the most expensive homes on the market today.

1) Ala Kohanaiki, Shores At Kohanaiki Resort Subdivision

This 5 bedroom 5.5 bath mansion built on the coast of Pahuili Bay is truly a residence fit for a king. In the home, you’ll find two large Master Suites, separate Living Hales, a lap pool, a spa, and an ocean facing bar for entertaining guests. Oh and it also happens to be adjacent to the 100-acre Championship Golf Course. This dream home will run you about 17.5 million dollars, but hey, it comes already furnished! And who wouldn’t love hosting parties on this patio?

2) Kukio, Kailua-kona

This two-story dream home sits on over an acre of lush, tropical landscape with a view that will make it hard to ever leave the deck. From the downstairs, you can watch the sunset over Kua Bay and see the famous Puu Ku’ili cinder cone. The outdoor living area is surrounded on both sides by water making you feel like you’re floating in a tropical oasis.  If you ever do tire of the views, not to worry. You enjoy some entertainment in the game room, on the outdoor put put golf course, or in the hot tub.

3) The Moana Residence at Kohanaiki

One of the most expensive Big Island homes on the market today, The Moana Residence is a 5 bedroom 5.5 bath dream home that features vaulted cedar ceilings, handmade custom African mahogany cabinetry, and granite stone floors. It has a gorgeous outdoor infinity pool and hot tub, of course, and a private pool pavilion. When you’re done soaking up rays and relaxing poolside, you can head in and rinse off in your two-room shower—one indoor and one outdoor so you never have to stop enjoying the tropical breeze. This residence comes turn-key ready for a cool $22.5 million.

4) Hokulia Phase 1, Lot 222 in Kealakekua

For the bargain price of $7.75 million, you could find yourself in this luxury home nestled above the 12th Fairway of one of the best golf courses on the Big Island. This 4 bedroom 4.5 bath residence features an open layout with the kitchen and living room areas opening into an expansive lanai and infinity pool. Your guests can sit and relax in the living room while enjoying miles and miles of Hawaiian coastal views. If you find your living-room big screen doesn’t quite give you the cinematic experience you’re looking for, you can head into your own private movie theater.

5) 72-130 Nana Uka Pl in Kailua-kona

This 4 bedroom 4.5 bath home near the center of Kukio provides the ultimate in privacy. With all the luxury amenities you could ever need, there isn’t much reason to venture into town. You can relax while waiting for the green flash next to the outdoor fire pit, cook up a Hawaiian feast on the barbecue, or enjoy a dip in the infinity pool that sits on the outermost edge of a beautiful lava field. Don’t forget about the separate sauna and spa. This dream home will only set you back about $6.25 million.
