About This Home

278 Makaweli Place

Experience the rare serenity and beauty of this one-of-a-kind Hawaii Kai retreat. Set on a prime 11,000 SF cul-de-sac lot in the coveted Koko Kai/Triangle neighborhood, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence (with one bedroom currently styled as a home office) captures unobstructed views of Maunalua Bay, Diamond Head, and the shimmering Pacific from nearly every room. Originally rebuilt in 2006 and thoughtfully this home blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. Recent enhancements include new stucco finishes, an extended lanai designed for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining, and a 408 SF pool house addition. The resort-style grounds invite true relaxation with a spectacular 50-foot, 30,000-gallon pool complete with spa and waterfall-your own private sanctuary for sunsets and starlit evenings. Practical upgrades enhance daily living, including 20 PV panels, a Tesla charger, a new water heater, and fresh landscaping completed in 2025. From its peaceful cul-de-sac setting to its sweeping island views, this home offers space and privacy. With every terrace and outdoor living area covered in travertine, the home exudes a refined resort-like atmosphere. STOP BY TO enjoying the views.
