Blue Water
This luxury, 2-story oceanfront estate on Big Island boasts one of the best locations on the entire Kona coast. With 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, expansive living areas, and unique amenities for up to 10 guests, you’ll truly be able to claim the island adventure of a lifetime here at Blue Water by Gather. This Big Island vacation rental resides in the exclusive Kona Bay Estates with proximity to Kona village, where you’ll find extensive fine dining, shopping, and Hawaiian activities to fill your vacation days with cherished memories. In addition to your private pool, there’s a swimming lagoon and beautiful white sand beach within the Kona Bay Estates gated community. This lagoon is one of the few places on the Kona Coast which is usable all year round, due to its shallow warm water.
When you first enter the property, you’ll be greeted by the large, wrap-around driveway and Hawaiian Poi Pounder fountain. Blue Water has numerous decorative touches and features inspired by the unique history of the island, which offers its guests a glimpse into its special past. The main living area has numerous doors that welcome the outdoor sounds and scents of the tropical flora, along with all the cooling tradewinds. The living room and kitchen area are spacious and ideal for entertaining guests, with a large curved granite bar, Koa media center, and dining area for all your guests. With the doors wide open throughout the day, your living area seems to expand right to the dazzling Pacific.
From your outdoor lanai, you can take in breathtaking sunsets each night from your lounge chairs or beautiful pool and spa area. Blue Water sits on over half an acre of tropical landscaping, with recent upgrades made to the property to ensure the most unique vacation home experience. The owner also recently added AC in all the bedrooms, updated many of the furnishings, and invested in new sliding doors to ensure the open-air feeling of the main floor living area is easy to access. Most guests have the doors open to take advantage of the ocean breezes, therefore the AC thermostat is preset to shut off at 10:30 am and 2:30 pm during the day. It operates continuously at night, with a minimum temperature of 74 degrees to ensure maximum comfort for you and your guests.
The primary bedroom suite is privately situated on the second level with incredible ocean views. It features a King-size canopy bed, private lanai, etched glass walk-in shower, jetted tub, and large walk-in closet. There’s a separate media lounge area within the primary suite, which provides additional sleeping accommodations.
Leading from the media room, there’s a set of spiral stairs that leads to an observation room with Twin-size beds. The observation room has 360-degree windows for mesmerizing views of the ocean and mountains. If you have older children, this would be the perfect space for them to hang out. The other 2 suites reside on the first and second levels, with a King-size bed and a Queen-size canopy bed and private bath within the rooms respectively.
As part of your reservation, you’ll have exclusive access to concierge services. Some of the service options include daily maid service, airport pick-up, lei greeting, private whale watching and snorkeling tours, and private chefs.
You will be so delighted with this home that you'll want to come back year after year!

Great Stay
by Sean CThis was our first stay at Blue Water. The home is great and accommodated our large family very well. Our kids loved the pool. The large kitchen opening to the back patio, seating and grill was also a great layout. Wonderful ocean view with an easy drive (or walk if preferred) into town. We would stay here again.
Thank you for your valuable feedback on your stay at Blue Water. We're thrilled that you and your family had a wonderful time and enjoyed the comfort of the home, especially the pool, kitchen layout, and ocean view. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back soon. Thank you for choosing us and sharing your delightful experience!
Amazing house in perfect location!! It has everything you need for a fantastic stay, beautiful views, comfortable beds and close to town and coffee/places to eat. We loved our time as a family here.

Perfect location
by Scott FHouse was in a beautiful oceanfront location with beautiful lava rock shoreline and a small beach area nearby. Near downtown Kailua Kona and plenty of restaurants, etc. Rules about AC/wearing shoes may seem unreasonable but weren't difficult, left sandals at door. Living area was best left open. Management was very responsive when WiFi not functional, etc. Would definitely recommend.
I absolutely agree that this house was in a beautiful oceanfront location, and the lava rock shoreline was stunning! Not only that, but it was conveniently located near downtown Kailua Kona and plenty of restaurants, making it the perfect spot for a vacation! The rules about AC/wearing shoes may seem unreasonable at first, but they weren't too difficult to follow. And you were able to leave your sandals by the door anyway. We also loved how open the living area was - it just made everything feel so much more spacious! Lastly, management was very responsive if something wasn't working properly - like if the WiFi had issues - which we really appreciated. Overall, we would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for an amazing place to stay.
Spectacular
by Amy ABeautiful, relaxing and fun
We're so thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us! Nothing is more satisfying than leaving our guests feeling relaxed and having lots of fun. We hope you'll come back soon for another wonderful experience!
We are so glad to hear that you had such a perfect stay at our house! We really appreciate your review, and we're glad that you enjoyed the cleanliness, size, and the pictures. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the lack of air conditioning in the upstairs bedroom with the twin beds. We are working to ensure that all rooms have comfortable temperatures for future guests. Thanks again for your kind words!
Place is gorgeous!
by Julie KPlace is gorgeous! Pictures don't do it justice. Close to everything needed. Well stocked and breathtaking! Will def stay again 🙂
We had a wonderful stay and would stay again in the future
by Stacey MWe had a wonderful stay and would stay again in the future. The location is close to the airport and the fun waterfront shops as well as close to many staples like Target and grocery stores. The house is definitely starting to get dated and signs of the oceans wear and tear are visible in places. Kitchen had nice updated appliances and was very well stocked with necessities plus extras (toaster, blender, instapot). The pool and hot tub were clean and there were pool and beach toys/chairs available for use. We did not have any issue with the people using the path behind the house, but could understand why folks would feel it is not entirely private. We just smiled and waved and spread the Aloha. The small neighborhood beach is an easy 5 minute walk down the same path. Sunsets on the patio are unforgettable. Overall a great place to stay!
Perfect place to stay in Kona!!! Great setting.
by Lindsay MBeautiful sunsets, whales, sunshine
by Laura TimmerwilkeGreat location and great house
by Christopher MBeautiful home!
by Kristi MGreat location, nice home
by Brett TRE Company did a great job, and house was clean and well stocked. Only negative was the house has a walkway in front with about 5 groups per hour that walk by (mostly neighbors or other renters), but it takes away from the oceanfront privacy. In spite of that, I'd stay here again 🙂
Our family really enjoyed our 5days mini-vacation here in this beautiful oceanfront home. It is so convenient to the mini farmer market, restaurants, beaches and only 20 mins away from the airport. a walking distance to a sand beach with a good spot for surfing just around the corner. If you have a 2 family of 8 people. I would rather stay at this home with more room, comfort, and privacy comparing to other resorts. Thank you, homeowner and Elite Pacific gave us a chance to enjoy this nice home.
Pebbles Ohana Celebration
by Carrie CA wonderful home and very amazing property. We felt the Aloha the minute we walked through the entry. We've been coming to the Big Island for over 25 years and have been to many properties. This home is by far one of my top new favorites. We celebrated moms 90th Birthday and It was just a wonderful experience. The ocean waves, the awesome sunsets and ohana. What more could you ask for. We will be returning! Mahalo for sharing your wonderful home with us. Sincerely, Carrie, Lawrence, Vincent and Dolores (mom) Pebbles. From Novato and Santa Cruz California
Paradise
by Anne-Marie RWe loved this property. Previous reviews had some negative comments and I didn't experience anything negative. House is well stocked and very clean (it is on the ocean so a little corrosion and rust is normal to me) Open air (all doors worked perfectly). Pool is very clean, hot tube could be warmer but the weather was warm when we were there so it was not a negative. I wish there were more bar stools for the kitchen and maybe a second couch in the main living area. I would definitely book this house again, we rent at least two houses per year in the Kona area and this is the first house I would do a repeat stay at.
The house was even better than we expected. What an incredible place to spend some time on vacation. The sunsets over the ocean from the pool are truly breathtaking.
Great place! Our family had a fun time. Close to everything but still quiet.
