5 Oceanfront Hawaii Homes from Gold Coast to West Maui

Along the water’s edge on Honolulu’s Gold Coast, this oceanfront end unit at Oceanside Manor frames endless ocean views alongside Diamond Head. Completely remodeled in 2025, the interiors are designed to keep attention on the horizon, with floor-to-ceiling pocketing sliding doors that invite in sea breezes and the steady soundtrack of the surf. Thoughtful updates include a drop ceiling with recessed lighting, Italian color-body large-format porcelain tile floors, and a complete electrical rework with updated wiring and a replaced panel. All-new appliances and finishes are paired with a ductless washer/dryer combo, a new split AC system, and a relocated custom water heater cabinet for easier maintenance. With just two units per level and a quiet stretch of Kalakaua Avenue, mornings and sunsets here feel unhurried.

Steps from the shoreline in Olowalu, this rare West Maui property pairs panoramic ocean and mountain views with a setting that feels both grounded and expansive. The home is arranged across four separate living units—two 2-bedroom/1-bath residences on the ground floor and two 1-bedroom/1-bath units upstairs—offering privacy and flexibility for multi-generational living, extended stays, or rental income. Vaulted ceilings on the upper level welcome natural light and ocean breezes, while generously sized rooms support an easygoing daily rhythm. A front balcony frames sweeping ocean vistas; the back turns to the tranquil West Maui Mountains. A large covered area converted into a separate dwelling adds space for guests, a home office, or creative studio. Evenings bring clear Olowalu skies, made for stargazing and moonlit gatherings.

For entertaining, an outdoor kitchen is outfitted with grills, a griddle, burners, a Big Green Egg, a smoker, and a bar with a self-pour tap wall. Indoors, upgrades include plantation shutters, LVP flooring, stain-blocking carpeting, split AC throughout, 21 owned PV panels, and a top-of-the-line KitchenAid suite. A covered lanai off the dining room and a wraparound second-floor lanai extend the indoor-outdoor rhythm into nightfall.

Moments from Kealakekua Bay on the South Kona coast, this meticulously maintained property pairs modern updates with the natural beauty that defines Hawaiʻi Island.

A detached one-bedroom cottage adds another layer of versatility for visitors or rental use. Outside, lush gardens planted with orchids, palms, and fruit trees wrap the home in old Hawaiʻi charm. With a rare short-term vacation rental license, Airbnb Superhost status, and an established rental history, it offers an easy rhythm between retreat and revenue in one of South Kona’s most sought-after settings.
