About
Honomalino
Honomalino, located between Miloliʻi and Hoʻokena, is a rural and coastal Hawaiian Ocean View neighborhood with rugged sea cliffs and wide-open mauka-to-makai views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the shoreline pullouts along Mamalahoa Highway (HI-11), where ocean lookouts, small fruit stands, and weekend roadside tables set an unhurried rhythm. Hoʻokena Beach Park and its oceanfront pavilion act as a social anchor for paddling, picnics, and sunset watching. Nearby, Hoʻokena Beach Park Snack Shack and Kona Boys in Captain Cook serve as familiar gathering points tied to the coast’s surf-and-paddle culture. Homes tend toward simple, spread-out footprints on larger lots, with lava rock, ironwood, and kiawe shaping the landscape. Life here follows the weather and the water, with South Kona’s fishing grounds and small harbors defining the geography.

Situated on a single road subdivision in Captain Cook, the home is nestled in a lush and tropical setting. The homes living room is open and inviting and will accommodate a variety of positions for the furnishings with room to spare. The carport has been converted to a oversized bedroom, bathroom and walk in closet with cedar lining. The two bedrooms at the mid point of the home are amply sized. The owners quarters bedroom is large, has an adjacent sitting/exercise room and its own bathroom. There is a large lanai that goes the length of the house as well as a rear lanai at the rear. The room count and square footage appear to differ from county record. There are two solar panels on the roof, but the water heating system has been converted to a propane instant hot system. Some of the improvements may have not been done by permit. Buyers are strongly recommended to conduct all due diligence in support of purchasing the subject property. Do not access the rear lanai. The home represents a great opportunity and with some hard work can make this diamond in the rough really shine.
