About this property
Kona Coast Original Beach Boys 9.5 acre Estate, Pool and Amazing Ocean Views
Kona recalls the Beach Boys playing their pop hits by the pool. The band left but the good vibrations linger. Situated on 9.5 gated acres, gated for with an amazing Hawaiian plantation-style home with separate sleeping quarters and a guest house. Pool hot tub, gas outdoor fire pit and tennis court make it feel like a mini-resort. Mature tropical fruit trees shelter exotic floral gardens.
From the ages of 16 to 60 Baby Boomers embraced the dream of an endless summer evoked by The Beach Boys’ music. Whether you are attracted to the park-like landscape, secluded island get-away, breathtaking ocean views, or the idea of living with Rock & Roll history; this unique property will fire your imagination.
At the center of the multi-structure compound, a big plantation-style home is a credit to a California architect who made the extra effort and captured the essence of a Hawaiian exotic retreat. Existing floor plans testify the main house and guest house were designed for Steven and Mike Love in 1972. From its cool, comfortable 1300 ft elevation the largest residence commands Kona coastline views that extend to include Kealakekua Bay and Kona. On Wednesdays you can see the cruise ship in he harbor.
Beyond the gated entrance a concrete drive ascends to a regulation sized tennis court. where the band often played for parties. A screened room beside the court is used as the current owner’s gym.
The beautifully remodeled kitchen and three of the four and a half baths retain tile custom made for the famous original owners. The main house offers three bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. Guests also have full use of the 2 bedroom Ohana (guest house) consisting of 1 queen bedroom , 1 bedroom with double bunk beds, 1 bathroom, full kitchen and living room.
Mature mango, coffee, avocado, lime, orange, banana, papaya, passion fruit and an assortment of other tropical fruit trees are the foundation plantings for multiple shade gardens filled with exotic flowers. If you are looking for a peaceful country hide-away, you must see the Beach Boys' Estate. You may hear the music, feel the good vibrations and never want to leave the warmth of the Kona sun.

The house was perfect, beautiful furnishings, well stocked kitchen, spectacular pool area, hosts were thoughtful and extremely helpful! Incredible private property perfect for my family birthday celebration!
The views are beyond words. The property is spacious and well appointed. Tennis, pool, jacuzzi, fruit trees, grilling, lots of walking trails. Very family friendly. Multigenerational friendly.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. Host was attentive and house was well-appointed with all you could need. We relaxed, took day trips to amazing sights and made good use of the pool, hot tub, large kitchen, and tennis courts. Highly recommend!
Really enjoyed the grounds including gorgeous views and sunsets, picking fresh fruit, swimming in pool and hot tub, outdoor fire pit, pickle ball and tennis court.
Location great if you like snorkeling at two-step with the best snorkeling on the island.
Had a great time at the property. Was clean, in good condition, and the property manager even heated the pool for us before we arrived! Can’t recommend enough for a large group or family.
The views were amazing! We loved all the fruit trees and the macadamia nuts and avacados. The swimming pool area was perfect and we enjoyed sitting on the decks every night.We had a wonderful time and if we ever get back we would definitely consider renting it again.
Outstanding property for large group. Panoramic Views & everything you will need from kitchen to sports and beach chairs / floats, etc. A little drive to sites and action in Kailua, but the peace and tranquillity of this spectacular property is well worth it! Guy is a tremendous host! Dennis
My family stayed there for my 50th birthday and the house exceeded all of our expectations. We had a fantastic time, sitting by the pool, eating all the fresh fruit and avocados from the yard and enjoying fun evenings on the patio. Guy was a great host and communicated with me throughout the week.. The view was amazing, but it did take us about an hour to get anywhere we wanted to go.
The house had everything we needed. We had a lot of fun at the pool and loved having the grills available to us. There were plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas which was great for beach days.
If you are looking for your own piece of paradise, this place is what will make you feel that way. It was so quiet and peaceful. It feels like you are on your own private island. Views are unbelievable and they never get old!
This is an amazing property with a host who is incredibly responsive. We especially loved enjoying the pool, playing pickle ball, and the spectacular sunsets. It is very "loved" and could use some upgrades but I would absolutely come back!
This private home is absolutely gorgeous!!! Very secluded and private with a magical view of the ocean. Everything was amazingly clean and beautifully furnished. I highly recommend this beautiful estate! Plenty of room for everyone. We will be back…next year!
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Beach Boys Estate! The home is beautifully decorated and spacious.
The pool and sprawling property kept the kids occupied for hours looking for ripening fruit and running down the hill to the tennis court. Guy, the owner was responsive and helpful before, during and after our stay. We would highly recommend staying in this lovely home!
Our extended family stayed here, 13 people. 7 adults and 6 kids ranging in ages from 5 to 15. This place is perfect for families and large groups. Everything was clean and the property is stunning. There is a sports court with equipment, the pool and hot tub are perfect, and it is fully stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards, etc so you just get to show up and enjoy. We really enjoyed our time and highly recommend.
Captain Cook Estate Exceeds Our Family Expectations!
Fantastic property with plenty of rooms for 10 adults for an 8 day trip from Ohio. We were very impressed with the 2 houses in great condition and the landscape, pool, spa, tennis/pickleball court, and only a short 3 min. drive to the ocean. Memorable Ocean views and very little wind! Great climate. Very fair price per night.

Enjoyed our stay at the house and loved the property. We had 11 people and there was plenty of room to spread out and not be on top of each other the entire time. The walk to the pool in the evening was better than the pictures. We loved the pool area and fire pit. Needed some help from Guy at the beginning and he was very quick to help out. Lost something on our way out, he found it and mailed it to us. You cannot beat the views from this place, no matter where you are at in the house.
The property is situated with a stunning view of the coastline. The house has a good kitchen and breakfast area as well as a dining room. The large living room is peaceful and the attached screened porch was popular place to sit and for both the adults and kids. There are several outdoor sitting areas as well. The master bedroom is spacious and has a large porch as well. The pool and spa area is spectacular and everyone spent a lot of time there. The house is supplied with a lot of everything you need for a beach vacation and for the kids to enjoy the pool. The house grounds are well maintained and include numerous fruit trees and palms. The entire property is lovely.
Vintage Charm & Ocean Views on The Beach Boys’ Estate
Absolutely unforgettable stay!We brought our whole extended family — my family of five, my brother’s family of five, and our parents — and this estate was beyond anything we hoped for. Set on 9.5 lush acres with sweeping ocean views, the property is full of rich history and character (built in 1972 by The Beach Boys, which we thought was the coolest detail).There are multiple homes on the property, so everyone had their own space, but we could still come together easily to enjoy meals, games, and relaxing by the pool and hot tub. Everything is immaculately maintained in its original condition — it’s like stepping into a timeless Hawaiian retreat.Our kids loved exploring the grounds, picking fresh bananas, limes, mangos, and more. The adults loved the peacefulness, the views, and just how special the whole place felt. It’s rare to find something this unique and serene — truly perfect for a multi-generational family gathering.We made lifelong memories here and can’t recommend it enough. If you’re considering it, just book it. You won’t regret it!
The property is beautiful. There was enough space and cozy nooks for us to be alone when wanted. But, places for us all to be together. There were 12 family members for 10 days, it was great. The kitchen had every gadget, it was clean The beds were comfortable. Everything was provided.
Our hosts were available to us if needed.
AND our Hosts, Guy and Justin were available if we needed them.
It was like being home. This was such a wonderful experience for my whole family! The best vacation ever! This home is perfect! Thank you Guy and Justin, you were so nice and respectful. Darinda (Rindy)
The property is beautiful everything is so amazing. The home is furnished with unusual furnishings that fits the home perfectly. The kitchen has everything you need. Cooking was easy. We had multiple family members from 2yrs to 70, 11 of us all together. The beds are comfortable and cozy. The swimming pool has floaters and toys. The pool is deep and fun for swimming. Plenty of items for the beaches from ice chest to umbrellas and kids sand toys!Owner of the property went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything needed for a wonderful stay. He met us and went over everything with us from lights to what amazing fruits growing on the property. He also came back and picked oranges for us to make fresh juice. Our stay was everything and more than we anticipated!! Thank You Guy for letting us stay in your beautiful home!!
Our extended family of 11 stayed at this property for a week. Our group included ages 3-82. The property is laid out such that everyone had their own space, with plenty of large shared spaces for us to all be together. The pool is amazing. The tennis court/basketball were a huge hit with young people. The house is stocked with all the basics you wonder about (basic spices, zip lock bags, foil, TP/paper towels). The host Guy was amazing, replied to every question almost instantly and even provided us with tips on a local bakery. If you want to experience a different side of Hawaii (the authentic one). This is the place for you - it is a luxury surrounded by the beauty and peace of rural Hawaii.
This property was great for multi-generations.
We enjoyed every bit of it - we played pickleball, basketball, we swam, we loved the spa & even made s’mores! We ranged in age from 5 to 67. We enjoyed our Beach Boys music while hanging out at The Beach Boys estate! 😊
The fruit trees were interesting, we especially enjoyed the fresh squeezed orange juice! & the lemons. We found fabulous avocados at a fruit stand down the road.
Guy was most helpful & accommodating- thank you!!!
We had a great time exploring the Big Island.
Almost forgot we are missing the night sounds now that we are back home in Iowa. Great memories were made!!!! 😊😊😊😊😊
What an incredible home! From the minute we drove up the driveway, this property stunned us with beauty. The acreage has plentiful fruit trees which allowed us to have fresh squeezed juice most mornings. The home itself, sitting near the top of the property, and the Ohana cottage, has a uniqueness which offered our group both together and alone time. Very well appointed with supplies. The pool and spa were absolutely wonderful! Everything was clean and well taken care of!
And then there is the host. Very congenial! Guy takes great pride in this property and it truly shows!
We feel truly blessed to have had the opportunity to spend time at this home and create many fond memories with family! Thank you Guy!
This property is amazing. Our 3 families stayed at The Beach Boys Estate over Christmas and into the new years.
Everything was well taken care of and the beds were comfy. The kids loved the 9 aches to run and play, while the adults loved the tennis courts. Everyone loved the pool and hot tub which were used everyday during our stay.
Everyone enjoyed picking the fresh fruit that we used for fresh orange juice, Limeade and guacamole.
Justin was so helpful and brought us fresh coconuts from the estate. Which was a wonderful treat for the kids!
Justin also had a beautiful welcome gift of chacuterie items for our crew when we arrived. We all enjoys the items during our 2 week stay.
The layout of the home provided private areas for all 3 families to have some space and wonderful gathering areas for meals and hanging out.
I highly recommend this home if you are visiting the Big Island.
