About This Property

A Private Island Retreat at Kahakai Estates

Welcome to Papala Place, a refined four-bedroom residence set within the gated community of Kahakai Estates, just minutes from the beaches, dining, and cultural attractions of Kailua-Kona. Designed for relaxed luxury and effortless gathering, this private retreat pairs generous indoor living with lush outdoor spaces, partial ocean views, and a resort-style pool environment. Papala Place offers a peaceful residential setting while keeping Kona’s most popular experiences close at hand.

Living Spaces

A gated entry leads into bright, airy interiors defined by high ceilings, warm island tones, and coastal-inspired finishes. Multiple seating areas create an easy flow toward the outdoors, with large windows and sliding doors opening to the pool terrace and garden. The main living room features plush sectional seating, ceiling fans, and a smart television, making it an inviting space for evening relaxation or shared moments after a day at the beach. The adjacent dining area comfortably seats eight at a rustic-style table, perfectly suited for family meals and celebratory dinners.

Kitchen & Dining

The open, chef-ready kitchen is anchored by a central island with bar seating, encouraging connection while meals are prepared. Rich wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including a gas range, provide both style and functionality. Abundant counter space makes it easy to prepare everything from casual breakfasts to elevated island-inspired cuisine.
