Best Buys – Kohala Coast Oceanfront Land and Homesites

Dreaming of surf crashing and unlimited ocean views as far as the eye can see from your sea cliff estate? There are few true oceanfront lots available along the Kohala Coast. From Kukio and Hualalai to Puakea Bay Ranch there are only 6 oceanfront lots including the Mauna Lani, Mauna Kea, and Waikoloa Resorts!

Kohala Coast Best Buys

The best buy, in my not so humble opinion, for gated community non-resort life would be the half acre oceanfront lot in Kohala Waterfront bargain priced at $1.199M (MLS# 257653). This is a beautiful, small community on a cliff with surf crashing below with unlimited views of Maui and the Kona coastline.

Next, in price line, are the two lots in Waikoloa Beach Resort’s Naupaka Place. This exclusive gated community of just 11 residential lots is on the point with the white sandy beach of Anaehoomalu Bay out your back door. Priced at $2M each, these bank owned listings are the value purchases in any resort setting!

Available Mauna Lani Resort Oceanfront Parcels

Mauna Lani Resort has two oceanfront parcels, both in the Black Sands Beach development. Black Sands Beach (BSB) is also called 49 Black Sands Beach as there are just 49 parcels in this gated waterfront community; although two of the owners have combined lots to expand their luxury homes for size and privacy.

Each of these available BSB lots are just over one acre each on a cliff with Maui and coastline views and, of course, include the membership of the exclusive BSB club house and amenities of the Mauna Lani Resort “Advantage Program” and the Beach Club. Priced at $3.95M and $4.75M, there is an obvious difference, as one has an un-buildable and protected “valley” (I call it a hole) and a smaller ocean frontage than the other.

Mauumae Development Opportunity

Last, but surely not least, is an 8-acre piece called Mauumae just north and accessible through Mauna Kea Resort; although not a part of the resort itself. This is a development opportunity as it is 1,500 feet of beachfront land with a white sandy beach of 400 feet. The land is zoned for 15,000 sq. ft lots.

This is a wonderful once in a lifetime opportunity, but…with a price tag of $32.99M, only the bold with deep pockets need apply (MLS# 257494).

At $32.99M, this listing is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity

Aloha Catherine; The list is oceanfront only and in the case of the Naupaka lots, they are indeed with direct access to the white sandy beach of A-Bay.

There are quite a few ocean view lots available fortunately, but for the dream of owning a home and walking on the sandy beach out your door..this list is it for the Kohala Coast!
