Why do celebrities such as Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green get married at the Four Seasons Hualalai?
This picture just about says it all…
According to People Magazine, Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green were married in a sunset ceremony June 24, 2010 on the beach at the Four Seasons Hualalai resort on the Big Island’s Kohala Coast. The actress wore a white Armani wedding gown and chose a local Hawaiian “priest”—a Kahuna—to perform the ceremony. One bonus to being married here? Short commute to a Hawaiian honeymoon!

I was talking with a client the other day about listing their vacant lot in Wailea at the Wailea Golf Vistas. It’s located at the 17th hole at the Wailea Blue Golf Course. In doing my market research, I came across a listing that piqued my interest and caused me to write this blog.
I was shocked at the hefty price tag of $13 million for less than 1 acre, however, I must admit that vacant land in Wailea (on the beach) is hard to come by. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and moved on to discover through more research that there are currently only 6 beachfront parcels available on Maui. When I say beachfront, I mean that you roll out of bed and you are at a sandy beach. There are other parcels that are very close to the water but that is for another blog. Here’s the location breakdown: 3 in Kihei, 1 in Lahaina, 1 in Kaanapali, and 1 in Wailea.
Take a tour with me of white sandy beachfront Maui properties…
(MLS# 339847) 1210 Uluniu is the smallest lot at 6495 square feet. It’s located in central Kihei and is flat and usable. The list price is $2,495,000 and has been on the market for 272 days. Read entire post →

Makena Beach high-end homes and condos show explosive sales activity.
400% increase in Single Family Home sales from ‘09 to ‘10. That’s rather impressive, don’t you think?
I searched back to the first part of 2009 to see how the sales activity in the Makena luxury home and condominium market compared to the same time this year.
I was surprised to find a total of four homes that sold in 2010. Two homes with list prices in excess of $22 million closed in the months of April and May. Two other homes listed in the $8 million range also closed earlier in the year. By comparison to no sales in any range the same time in ‘09.
This 5,182 square foot home on 1.65 acres with 440 feet of shore front closed in April for $19,850,000.
In the condominium market, there have been 4 sales so far this year as compared to one sale during the same time in ‘09. The most expensive listing that sold was originally listed at just under $4.4 mil, reduced to $3.375 mil and sold for that amount. Read entire post →

Maui Kaanapali Villas, located toward the end of Kaanapali on the north side, is so secluded you need directions to get there, making this condo-hotel both quaint and very quiet. While the lobby is in the process of getting a major face lift, the grounds are very well-maintained, and the beach just in front is beautiful. Maui Kaanapali Villas is also home to a great pool of vacation rental condos.

Just about anyone who lives in Hawaii has a favorite secret beach.
You would think we would keep quiet, but that Aloha Spirit has a way of loosening our tongues. So here goes.
My favorite beach is Manini Beach here in South Kona on the Big Island. Manini is a small beach—in fact that’s what the name means—set in a pebbly cove on Kealakekua Bay, where Captain Cook met his end. He, or what was left of him, is buried on a point that juts into the bay. It is also famous as a spot where many Hawaiian Chiefs are buried in the high cliffs of Ka’awaloa overlooking the bay. The bay itself is pristine, and filled with dolphins, turtles, and beautiful coral reefs with bright tropical fish.
