Winters in Hawaii - easier than you think

By
Real Estate Agent with Kona Home Team (luva llc) RS 62947

Aloha, Lance Owens here with LUVA Real Estate,  as I drove to the office this morning I was compelled to pull over and take this photo: Magic's, Alii Drive, Kailua Kona, HI Dec 1, 2014, 8:00am , air temp 75, water temp 80 . (sorry Bodyglove - no wetsuits needed) 

So - how harsh are the winters in Hawaii ?  Daytime temperatures will hover in the low 80s, night times will dip into the low 70s and water temp will drop down into the lower 70s also. 

Don't forget, with these huge mountains on the Big Island, it can go from Sea level to 2,000 feet in under 5 miles. As a rule of thumb, a loose rule, it will drop about 1  degree every 200 feet of elevation, so roughly at that 2,000 foot elevation you could be 10 degrees cooler. 

OK - lets look at a condo directly across the street from this Beach , 1,012sqft, 2 bedroom, 2 bath, with a huge Lanai priced at $299,000. and you can vacation rent it when you are not here. (not my listing, but I can represent you as the buyer) 

 

Not a condo person - how about this 2 bedroom, 2 bath home, for $425,000 (this one is my listing)  click photo for more info

What a lovely thought -- a winter in paradise!  I'm jealous . . . but in a good way as we have been very chilly here.  Fall by-passed us and winter is here!  Great listing BTW.

We're hovering around 40 today, and it gets down to 30's at night.  But, we had an artic cold snap move through, quickly, this weekend.  It was in the low 30's during the weekend, during the day.  This is normal for January, we're about a month early for the chill!

Aloha Michael Dagner , Thank you, we are just entering our busy season - typically runs from Thanksgiving to Easter. For that reason alone (tropical warmth) :)
