Property Description
Royal Palms Estate is one of the most private oceanfront-style retreats along the Hamakua Coast. Nearly thirteen acres stretch toward the Pacific, offering sweeping, uninterrupted ocean views that anchor the property to the coastline. The gated arrival, framed by towering royal palms, sets a serene and sophisticated tone from the moment you enter. The main residence is designed for refined resort living. Four private primary suites, an ocean-facing great room, a gourmet kitchen, theater, and billiards room all open to dramatic coastal vistas. A separate pool house adds a fifth suite. Outdoor living defines the experience with an infinity-edge pool, lava rock waterfall, hot tub, and a true swim up bar, surrounded by expansive covered lanais that capture the sunrise and the movement of whales offshore. The grounds are lush and abundant, with rolling lawns, layered tropical gardens, and a producing orchard featuring coconuts, citrus, mango, lychee, longan, bananas, and more. The setting feels completely secluded, yet the conveniences of Hilo and nearby towns are within an easy drive, creating an ideal balance of retreat and accessibility.
