Lymans Bay Hale:Ocean View Surfer's Paradise on Lymans Bay w/Hot Tub, Game Room

Lyman’s Bay Hale by Gather, tucked into an area of thick, green foliage right off Ali’i Drive, is a large three-story home with 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms in beautiful Kailua-Kona. Just a stone’s throw away from Lyman’s Bay, which is located just across the street, you can hear the waves crashing against the rocky shoreline and gaze out at the serene bay from multiple rooms throughout this home. With lots of space, air conditioning in every room, and a rarely-seen layout that you’ll love, this residence offers all you’ll need to feel right at home.

Make your way past the 3-car garage and carefully manicured lawn to enter the ground floor of the property into the bright foyer, adorned with ocean-themed artwork. The first-floor primary suite has a King-size bed and large windows, providing a view of the lush greenery that surrounds the home and a spacious bathroom with an enormous walk-in shower and a unique vanity with beautiful custom cabinets and granite countertops. The other 3 bedrooms located on this floor share the sizable guest bathroom, with an almost identical vanity and a shower/tub combo. The first guest bedroom contains a plush King-size bed, while the second has a Queen- size bed, as well as access to the lanai. The last ground-floor bedroom features Twin-size bunk beds perfect for children. A full-size laundry room rounds out the lower level of this home.

Climb the wide wooden staircase to the second floor, which takes you directly into the large open-concept living space, with vaulted ceilings and sightlines to the ocean. The tropical rattan furniture in the living room is mirrored in the dining room’s glass table set for six. Pass through the large sliding glass door onto the lanai where you can BBQ and dine while enjoying the charming ocean view before you. Conveniently, the lanai also connects to the stunning kitchen, with its one-of-a-kind contrasting wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a wet bar for mixing cocktails. There is a charming half bath near the great room as you make your way to the expansive game room. This fun space boasts both a pool and ping pong table, so you can challenge your friends and family to a friendly game, or simply sprawl out on the couch with some popcorn for a movie night. The only bedroom on this floor, the second primary suite, impresses with its King-size bed, luxurious ensuite with a walk-in shower, and a decadent walk-in closet. The airy third floor of the home has the option of being used as an early morning yoga retreat or as an office, where you can catch glimpses of the water beyond the windows as you work.

The biggest draw of this Big Island vacation rental is its proximity to the ocean. You can walk across the street and jump in the water, or hang out on the rocks to watch the surfers. Visit one of the many nearby beaches, including the popular Magic Sands Beach, just minutes away by car. Or you can plunge into the hot tub on site with a tranquil setting to melt all your stress away! Drive along the coast to Kona Town, where you can partake in farmers' markets, browse art galleries and local boutiques, or grab some shaved ice to cool you down. For something a little different, visit the original Kona Brewing Company, where you can try out some of their unique beers and get some tasty food while you’re at it.

Lyman’s Bay Hale was made for ocean lovers. Here, mere steps separate you from the Pacific Ocean, and you can see and hear the water for the entirety of your stay. Its ideal layout, an abundance of space, and diverting game room make this accommodation feel just like home, only better.

A mix

The house was a great size and location, and having a pool and ping-pong table was awesome! We also appreciated that the grill was clean and in working order. A few downsides though: the floors were not clean; one of the rooms had a moldy odor and really aggravated one guests allergies; the house is a bit porous (the screens had gaps), so there were geckos living inside and our teen found a huge centipede in his closet, which gave him quite a fright.

Family Vacation

Our family had a great two week stay in Kona. Beautiful sunset views from this home. Mostly well stocked except the lack of beach chairs for the amount of people this home can accommodate. (only one actual beach chair). We celebrated a birthday while there and unfortunately the mixer was broken, but was able to still make cupcakes to celebrate! Overall a Beautiful Island and a wonderful stay.

Lyman’s bay - perfect getaway house for a large family group

This lovely home provided a great homebase for our trip to the Big Island. Our group ages 21 - 56 enjoyed all the amenitites at Lyman's bay including comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen, pool, ping pong, hottub, and a wonderful lenai to watch the sunset. There was plenty of room to spread out, ample space for us to eat together. The house is located betwen downtown Kona and Keahou shopping center making shopping and dining convenient as well. The photos in th posting were an accurate representation of the home, the property management company had prompt and regular communications on the details of the property. There is no doubt with a large group we would rent this home again.

House was spacious and comfortable for entire family. Only complain was that the house was humid and felt like a sauna upon entry, if A/C was on before we showed up it would have been nice.

Great Place.

Very large home that was perfect for our family of nine. Perfect location, beautiful view. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out. Only warning is if your going during the hot season there are only a few small window unit AC units that really struggle to cool off the house. Mornings and nights weren't to bad but during the day it was almost uncomfortable. The game room was nice but during the day and evening it was so hot you couldn't use them. Also may want to request that the AC's are turned on before you get there. When we got there all the AC's and fans were off making it miserably hot for several hours until the HVAC could catch up. All in all a great time.

Great location, nice sized house for a group

Wonderful location close to shopping and activities. Beach across the way was wonderful lots of surfers. All the bedrooms had individual ac units except the bunk bed room. When we arrived all units were off so it was really hot in the whole house. Cooled off in the bedrooms fairly quickly. Area was very quite at night and felt very safe. Would definitely rent again

It really is as good as the pictures

BEAUTIFUL house. Lots of space. The list of things that aren't amazing about this house is short: The only bedroom that's small is the bunk bed room. That room also doesn't have an air conditioning unit, and it was hot while we were there so that wasn't great. The shared bathroom is also small if you plan to have 6 people sharing it, but if those using the master bedrooms are willing to share it works out well. But other than that, everything was fantastic! Texts were answered quickly whenever we needed information. Some work had to be done on one of the garage doors, and they were very concerned with making sure that it didn't interfere in our plans. I was a little worried that we wouldn't be able to cross the street easily because Ali'i Dr can be pretty busy, but we never had any trouble. I seriously can't say enough about this house. We had 10 people: me and my husband, his parents, our 3 grown children, 2 of their spouses, and a 7 year year old grandchild, and we never felt crowded (except for those sharing the bathroom, but they worked it out). We spent a lot of time in the house, and used the heck out of the game room. My granddaughter LOVED going out looking for lizards, though I'm sure the lizards loved that a little less than she did! We explored the tide pools in the rocks every day. Granddaughter was afraid to snorkel in places where there were urchins, but felt really safe in the little protected area to the right. Seriously, so much fun and such a great house. It'll be a while before we're able to go back to Hawaii, but would absolutely stay here again!

Beautiful home with great location

This house was perfect for 3 families. It is spacious and beautiful. Lyman’s Bay is right across the street and we got to watch the surfers on a high surf day. The ping pong table, pool table and tv room were perfect for our family to enjoy a great time together. Thank you so much
