Set along one of the most breathtaking beaches in the world, this iconic oceanfront property was once home to Hawai‘i’s legendary entertainer Don Ho. A place where music and aloha once filled the air, the home remains a warm and welcoming retreat that embodies the relaxed charm of island living.
The property offers ten bedrooms and nine bathrooms, including six en suites for comfort and privacy. With two full kitchens, the residence is ideal for large gatherings, retreats, or multi-generational living. The spacious layout is designed for connection and comfort rather than formality—its high ceilings, open interiors, and casual flow make it the quintessential Hawaiian beach house. The natural foliage provides just enough seclusion to ensure complete privacy while still offering unobstructed access to the ocean—a rare combination along any beachfront stretch.
This well maintained estate with its large scale, setting, and history make it one of the most special properties on the island. It’s a place designed for barefoot mornings, ocean dips, and sunrise gatherings—a setting that celebrates the true essence of life on the beach.
