ONE OF THE PREMIER VACATION HOMES in one of the Big Island's premier vacation spots, Champagne Cove at Kapoho Beach features 6 bedrooms on 2 floors, accommodating from 2 to 12 very lucky guests. The home is known for its huge private in-ground swimming pool, adjacent barbecue area, and garden...view full description surroundings, all for your exclusive use as a Champagne Cove guest. Famous Champagne Pond, a crystal-clear Pacific Ocean lagoon sheltered from the surf that provides incredible snorkeling and swimming, is only a 3-minute walk away.

GROUPS OF 6 OR LESS rent the top main floor of Champagne Cove with the main living, dining and kitchen areas, a completely enclosed wraparound lanai with a panoramic ocean and pool view, 3 bedrooms with king, queen and twin beds, and 1.5 baths. Groups of 7 or more also have use of the ground-floor portion of Champagne Cove called the Ohana with another living and dining area, kitchen, 3 more bedrooms with king, queen and twin beds, and another 1.5 baths.

GROUPS OF 6 OR LESS may obtain access to the ground-floor Ohana for an additional fee. In addition, during portions of the year, a group of 6 or less can rent just the Ohana instead of the main floor at a special low rate (see the Champagne Cove Ohana listing for availability and details). Whether you rent the main floor, the Ohana, or both, your group has complete privacy; WE DO NOT RENT THE TWO FLOORS TO SEPARATE PARTIES AT THE SAME TIME.

CHAMPAGNE COVE IS COMPLETELY AND COMFORTABLY FURNISHED to supply all of your home-away-from-home needs. Cook in one of the beautiful kitchens while you gaze at the Pacific Ocean through the 30-plus palm trees. Outdoor dining with shade umbrellas for poolside lounging makes for an unforgettable stay. The outdoor charcoal barbecue faces the pool and is adjacent to the outdoor shower that is a must for everyone to try at least once. In the pool you can view the waterfall and the 12-foot mural of "Hilo Town" at the same time. Look for its artist "Arenzo" who is also the gardener and ask him about his work and his life; it is worth the wait.

YOU CAN SEE WHALES OFF-SHORE (in season) and sea turtles visit year 'round. Don't miss the 3-mile drive to the popular geothermally heated pond called Ahalanui (the "Hot Pond"). At night you can view the cruise ships passing in the night or enjoy one of the televisions. You are "connected" while at Champagne Cove through both hard-wired and wireless DSL connections. Champagne Cove has a local massage therapist "on call" and an on-site massage table for your use.

NOTHING COMPARES WITH THE OLD HAWAII FEELING in downtown Hilo and great kindness reflected by the neighbors and the natives of this lush area. Being only a few miles from Kalapana and being able to see the lava enter the ocean is another wonderful attraction. Champagne Cove is located less than a mile from the old town of Kapoho and the lighthouse on the point is a reminder of times gone by. The nearby picturesque town of Pahoa has an eclectic mix of shops and restaurants, some with live music and all filled with aloha.

CHAMPAGNE COVE GETS SUNRISES like you never imagined, and even though the sun sets on the other side of the island, the sky over Kapoho comes alive with spectacular colors! This is truly an awesome place. Kapoho is the warmest, sunniest spot on the windward side of the island. It often gets sun when it is raining in Hilo. Here you will experience beauty and tranquility with a rare taste of lovely "old Hawaii."
