, one of two active volcanoes on the Big Island of Hawai’i, is erupting. This is the first time since 1984. As of 11/28/2022, active lava can be viewed at each of the active volcanoes on Hawai’i (Mauna Loa and Kiluea).

CheCa Hale is a bright, airy, air-conditioned, corner penthouse unit that boasts just under 1200 square feet of interior living space (beautifully updated in 2022) and 350 square feet of relaxing covered lanai space! The unit is nestled in a choice location within the Keauhou Kona Surf & Racquet Club, a gated resort community that has long been a priority destination for savvy repeat guests to the Big Island due to its central location and island-friendly design.

Located just 5 miles from downtown Kona, the Club sits on 17 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 large swimming pool that can accommodate lap swimming, several BBQs and other common spaces available for use.

With a spacious, open concept design, CheCa Hale offers a fully appointed kitchen with natural stone countertops and new appliances, dinnerware, barware, cookware, utensils, and everything else you are likely to need to prepare relaxed and cost-effective meals at home.

In addition to the indoor dining table, exterior dining is a joy on the wrap-around lanai while taking in beautiful views down a greenway of Kona Country Club’s 18-hole golf course. These greenway views are inescapable from the main living areas and master bedroom. Tee times for the course, which extends directly alongside the island’s coastline, may be booked directly with the Club at a discounted rate for Club guests.

Sunrise from CheCa Hale treats you to explosions of color over Mauna Loa’s foothills and the melodic sounds of Hawaiian signing birds which continue throughout daylight hours. Ocean views can be observed from the new and comfortable lanai lounge chairs. The community’s private oceanside cliff walk and beach are a perfect place to rest with a bottle of wine and watch Kona’s renowned sunsets. Nighttime off the lanai includes dark skies littered with bright stars. It is common to see shooting stars upon which you may make a wish.

In the common island-style, the primary bedroom offers a king bed and is separated from the primary living space by noise-buffering sliding shoji privacy doors. The adjoining fully remodeled primary suite bath has a walk-in shower with detachable shower head and washer and dryer. The lanai is directly accessible from the primary bedroom suite. The secondary bedroom also has a king bed with garden views. The fully remodeled secondary bath also has a walk-in tiled shower with detachable shower head.

The Club’s central location is ideal. Kahalu'u Beach Park, known as one of the best snorkeling and surfing beaches on the Big Island, is less than a 10-minute walk from the Club. In quiet times, fish may eat out of your hand, or you may see a protected green turtle surface to eat moss from the rocks at this destination beach. 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 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 Captain Cook within about 20 minutes; or take advantage of fast and convenient access to Queen Kaahumanu 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, eight fast-drying beach towels, one boogie board, food, and beverage coolers, two tennis rackets, tennis balls, a volleyball and a yoga mat.

Come, hopu i ka lā (catch the sun) on Hawai’i!
