Private chef, Kohala Coast.
Thirty-five to forty-five minutes north of Kona: the highest-value resort corridor in the state, strung along black lava and white sand. Different communities, different access rules — one rate card.

The strip, north to south
Waikoloa Beach Resort (35 min from Kona) — the family-villa and condo stock. Mauna Lani (40 min) — resort-residences and estates. Puako — the old beach-house lane. Mauna Kea and Hapuna (45 min) — the ultra-luxury end. All inside the base zone; no travel line.
The gated communities
Hualālai, Kukio, and Kohanaiki sit between Kona and Waikoloa behind gates. Access comes through your host, estate manager, or concierge — we come with the referral and coordinate entry and load-in directly.
What gets booked here
- Estate and resort-residence dinners — CORE $150–$225/guest
- Stay Chef weeks — from $950/day, the corridor’s signature product
- Wedding weeks beside the resort circuit — from $150/guest + staffing
