Ka’ulu Lot 19 Project | Four Seasons Hualalai | Kona Coast | Big Island /  by Ethan Tweedie

One of the most exclusive resorts in the World and in Hawaii, the Four Seasons Hualalai is surrounded by white-sand beaches and black-lava landscapes on the Kona Coast of the Big Island.  It offers privacy and luxury amenities like ocean activities, golf and tennis for its A-List Clientele. The Four Seasons Hualalai Resort has been voted Best Luxury Resort in Hawaii by Forbes and U.S. News & World Report lists the Four Seasons Hualalai Resort the #1 resort in Hawaii.  The Resort is also home to some of the most exclusive private residences in the World boasting over 100 private home owners such as this property at Ka’ulu Lot 19.

Ka’ulu Lot 19 was developed by March Capital Management, a San Francisco-based development and investment firm, as an investment property that will be used by exclusive clientele as luxury vacation rental.  “MCM” teamed up with GM Construction, a design build firm to put their vision into reality.  GM Construction is “a custom, luxury home builder that, for over twenty years, has constructed residences in the resort communities along the Kona and Kohala Coast” and has built most of the homes at the Hualalai Resort.

The property is situated on the fairway of the 3rd Hole of the Hualalai Golf Course and faces West for gorgeous Hawaiian sunsets.  The home features a spa and infinity pool and three golf-carts to play golf, visit the beach or the many restaurants located within the Four Seasons Resort.

I was hired by “MCM” to photograph this property over a 2 day period to capture each space in its best light.  The home features 7 bedrooms and 9 baths boasting that quintessential indoor outdoor living here in Hawaii.  Below are some of the highlights from our photoshoot in April 2024

Stirrups Restaurant | The Equestrian Hotel | Ocala Florida /  by Ethan Tweedie

Stirrups Restaurant is a site to behold, massive 2 story ceilings, custom millwork and a 1,500 bottle wine cellar! For the main dining room image, we must have spent an hour lining up each chair so the image would be just perfect! If you ever go to The Equestrian Hotel you must dine at Stirrups! Here is the description from the designer, Roberts Design Group

“On the first floor of The Equestrian Hotel, Stirrups Restaurant is a timeless representation of luxury dining. As an elegant southern steakhouse and fine dining experience, we wanted the space to be refined with Parisian inspirations. The custom millwork and fine details, like the chrome door handles that mimic stamped leather, complete the look.

As one of the unique outlets found in The Equestrian, its design is honored as a part of the hotel's nomination for the 2021 Gold Key Awards in the category of "Best Hotel Luxury."

The Equestrian Hotel description: “Prime steaks and chops, sustainable Florida seafood and seasonal specialties are served in a refined dining room and terrace overlooking the Grand Outdoor Arena at the World Equestrian Center/Equestrian Hotel

Stirrups Restaurant is Ocala’s premier, elegant southern steakhouse, where refined comfort food meets elevated service with a wine cellar accommodating 1500 bottles of wine.”

Our latest photoshoot was on the Big Island of Hawaii for a company called Inspirato, they are a leading luxury hospitality company that manages, staffs, and maintains an exclusive collection of branded luxury vacation homes.  

The home we photographed is located in the heart of the Waikoloa Beach Resort on a beachfront setting called Kolea which is a gated community right on Anaehoʻomalu Bay on the stunning Kohala/Kona Coast. The first thing you see when you enter the home is the gorgeous blue water of the Pacific Ocean. You can certainly enjoy the pool and Jacuzzi or just a short walk from the home is the white sands of Anaehoʻomalu Beach where you can relax on the beach, swim, snorkel etc or explore the Petroglyphs steps away from the house.  

We were blessed with gorgeous sunny skies most of the day and to our surprise a rare light rain cloud came over the house and created this giant rainbow right at sunset!!

This luxury home built and designed by Pu`uwai, Koloa’s Premier Design/Build Company in the Kukui’ula community on Kauai’s South shore takes a modern approach to tropical design.  Each bedroom opens up to the exterior lanai areas and both master suite bathrooms open to private courtyards and outdoor showers.  The infinity edge pool has a swim-up bar, aqua lounge area and seamless spa. 

Pu`uwai Design + Build hired us to photograph this gorgeous home to market their company, market as a luxury vacation rental, and list for sale.  We spent close to 3 days photographing this amazing home and it felt like photographing a piece of art, truly an amazing property Pu`uwai created. 

 I am grateful to Pu`uwai giving us close to three days to shoot at the house, the weather on Kauai in the winter can get tricky sometimes and on our last half day it rained almost non stop!  Lastly I want to thank Malia and Justin of Pu`uwai for letting us stay at the property, it saved a lot of time packing and unpacking all of our gear each day!  It truly was an amazing property to photograph, Mahalo!
