About This Property

A Tri-Level Oceanfront Estate Above Lyman’s Bay

Welcome to Kona’s Shangri La, a custom-built oceanfront retreat perched directly above the sweeping blue curve of Lyman’s Bay along the iconic Aliʻi Drive in Kailua-Kona. Designed for families and groups who value space, comfort, and effortless island living, this five-bedroom, five-bath residence unfolds across three expansive levels with uninterrupted ocean views.

With multiple living areas, two full kitchens, and inviting outdoor spaces anchored by a solar-heated pool and ocean-view hot tub, Kona’s Shangri La is an exceptional setting for gathering, relaxing, and experiencing the Kona coast from sunrise to sunset.

Living Spaces

Across all three levels, floor-to-ceiling glass frames the Pacific, filling the home with natural light and gentle ocean breezes. The second- and third-floor living rooms are designed as primary gathering spaces, each offering plush seating, queen sleeper sofas, split air conditioning, ceiling fans, and direct lanai access.

Large glass panels open toward the coastline, creating seamless indoor-outdoor flow and uninterrupted sightlines to the water. Multiple living areas allow groups to spread out comfortably while still feeling connected.

Additional kitchenettes throughout the home add convenience for snacks and beach-day essentials.

Dining options are equally flexible, with an eight-seat dining table indoors on the second level and an unforgettable outdoor dining terrace at the water’s edge that seats ten, where meals are shared to the sound of waves breaking along the lava rock shoreline.

Resort-Style Outdoor Living

Outdoor spaces at Kona’s Shangri La are designed to celebrate the home’s oceanfront setting. Relax in the solar-heated pool, unwind in the ocean-view hot tub, or stretch out on lounge chairs while watching the surf roll in.

Reviews

Vinay B
Their management team and staff went above and beyond addressing several issues we had when initially checking into the place. Nick was a pleasure to work with. We were told prior to check in that the elevator would be out of service for the duration of our stay. This was a big issue for our party since 2 of our guests were not able to walk up and down the stairs. The air conditioning also ended up breaking on the ground level and 2 floor right before we checked in. They were able to fix it by the end of our 2nd day. Things breakdown…unfortunate but it happens. They made every effort to make it right which we greatly appreciated. The property location is incredible..central to everything in Kona. Ocean views are unreal on the property. Direct access to the water within steps. Nice pool and hot-tub which we used daily). Even with the issues with the elevator/AC I would book again with them without any hesitation. Their top notch service made our stay worthwhile.

We stayed at Shangri La as part of a school trip where our students are studying marine biology. The house was perfect for our group as it was very close to the beach where we were able to observe many of the reef fishes that we had come to study. They were very prompt with responses to any inquires. I would recommend this rental to anybody who wishes visit Hilo.

We really enjoyed the property. On if the air conditioning units was jot working properly when we arrived, but Elite properties responded very quickly and the air conditioner was fixed that same day. The views are amazing. We definitely would stay here again and recommend to anyone who travels with large groups or multiple families.

Super fun house for my friends and I. The top two floors were more like separate apartments. They both had their own kitchen which was great. It would be perfect for someone’s family reunion but it worked great for my friends staying together before our wedding. We didn’t use the elevator much but the big windows were very nice. The only downside is on the third floor you can only access it through the master bedroom if you don’t use the elevator. Not a big deal but something to be aware of. Otherwise I recommend it.
