Aloha and welcome to Maka Nui Estate â a private ocean-view retreat perched
above Kealakekua Bay on Hawaiâiâs Big Island. Set on five acres of tropical gardens,
this newly renovated 5-bedroom estate blends luxury and authenticity â offering guests
the serenity of being away from the resorts in real Hawaiâi with sweeping views of the
Pacific. Enjoy lush surroundings, vibrant sunsets, and the spirit of Aloha at your own
private sanctuary.
Perched on a dramatic cliffside at 1,000 feet elevation, Maka Nui Estate, meaning Big
View, offers sweeping vistas of Kealakekua Bay, Puâuhonua o HĆnaunau National
Historical Park, and 30 miles of pristine, undeveloped Kona coastline.
The location is incredibly unique with lush greenery typically only seen on the windward
or East side of the Hawaiian Islands. The name Kealakekua comes from the Hawaiian
ke ala ke kua - âthe pathway of the godsâ - a reflection of the valleyâs deep spiritual
significance and beauty.
This private, resort-style family retreat is a 5-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom masterpiece set on
a gated five-acre tropical estate. Perfect for multi-generational families or romantic
getaways, Maka Nui promises a Hawaiian experience like no other.
