About Big Island Retreat 

At Big Island Retreat, the spirit of Aloha is more than a greeting—it’s a way of life.

Just steps from the vibrant waters of Kahaluʻu Bay, our charming vacation rental offers a serene oasis where guests can reconnect with nature, the local community, and their inner selves.


We’ve crafted a retreat that truly feels like home: ocean breezes drift through open lanais, mornings unfold gently with birdsong, Kona coffee, and the scent of the sea. Every sunset is a reminder to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the moment.


Whether you’re here to snorkel among colorful tropical fish and Hawaiian sea turtles, explore Kona’s historic coastline, or simply relax under the shade of a palm tree, our goal is simple: to make your stay effortless, restorative, and unforgettable.

MISSION AND VALUES

Our mission is to provide a peaceful, authentic Hawaiian vacation experience where guests can unwind, embrace the spirit of Aloha, and immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the Big Island in a meaningful, enjoyable way.


Our Values:
Live with Aloha: We honor the true essence of Aloha—kindness, connection, and compassion—in everything we do.

Simple Comforts, Lasting Memories: Thoughtful, down-to-earth hospitality create space for joy, relaxation, and unforgettable experiences.


Rooted in Nature: We cherish our island environment and strive to keep our retreat in harmony with the land, the ocean, and the local community.


Community Care: We treat every guest like Ohana—family. Welcoming, comfortable, and thoughtfully cared for, we create a cozy retreat where you can truly relax and enjoy
your time on the island.


Giving Back: We care about our community and the world. We work with the Salvation Army, support programs for children, serve with the Kiwanis Club, and helped build the


Dream Inspiration Academy elementary school, educating and feeding children in Kenya’s slums.
