Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a marvelous time in your home. We loved the outdoor space. The kids loved the hammocks and hot tub we loved nightly walking down to the ocean and watching the sun set. The house was clean and well stocked. The outside lighting was abundant. Loved the separate suite. We did ask if there was a pack n play or stroller at the house and were told no, later to find both in the laundry room. We highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a central location for a larger group to stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was perfect for my family. There was plenty of room for one old couple and three young couples. We stayed in Jun '24, and the ACs were strong enough to keep us cool. We made use of the outdoor grille a lot. The host left plenty of towels for bathing and swimming.The house is one house away from the rocky coastline. It's beautiful, but you can't really swim there. Note that, AFAIK, most of the Big Island's coast is rocky and swimming is not recommended. I would definitely rent again under similar conditions.

Location is great, place is clean, layout was perfect for our family. Me and my wife took the cabana, (separate quarters with A/C and bathroom) two couples upstairs and my daughter on the ground floor of the main house. Look out great for morning coffee. We used the beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, coolers and snorkels during the day. Oh and the beds were very, very comfortable. Great stay - thank you, we will be back!

This property is perfect for family staying together. The master suite is right next to the main house. Property is clean, tidy and comfortable. Perfect for six adults, although, it can easily accommodate eight. I loved that you can hear the ocean, you can see it too. The property is not on the beach, but you can see it from areas of the house. If you want to be on the beach, this is not the area. However, it is an island, so you can easily get to the beach in five minutes. Keep in mind when booking anywhere there are fees, taxes, cleaning deposits in addition to your nightly stay. This is standard when booking vacation property. Our concierge was a tremendous asset and helpful with questions. By the way instacart delivers to this area, which is terrific! Beautiful stay, we enjoyed our time, appreciated the amenities, beds and bedding were comfortable, everything we needed was there. Being able to do our laundry was a life saver! This property will get you as close to the ocean for a great price!

The location was perfect! It was just right for my family of seven adults and 115 month old. The separate room with the king size bed and bathroom was great for my son and daughter-in-law and their baby. It was convenient for them to have their own space. We even took family pictures on the rocks near the little private beach. Everything in the Kona area was so close. Our time went so fast. Wish we had built in a day just to enjoy the house but we did use it for several dinners and breakfast. Nice to have the grill. Wish we would’ve known in advance that there was a few baby items such as a pack and play and a stroller. The host was very responsive when we contacted her about extra blankets. Would’ve loved some extra sheets, comforters. She also took care of a small ant problem in the master bathroom. Plenty of bath and beach towels. The laundry was a plus for sure.. We enjoyed the lookout tower! Overall we had a great stay!

Kai Vista was ABSOLUTELY amazing! As awesome as everything looks in the pictures, it is way better in person! No problems with this property at all. I would highly recommend this listing to anyone looking to have a lot of space to relax in! Our contact Heidi was a pleasure to talk too as well! She made sure to reassure me that if anything came up that she was just a phone call away. (nothing came up though)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The 8 of us 2 set of parents, two 20 year olds and a 16 and 17 year old throughly enjoyed our one week stay. It was a great location to explore the Kona Coast, close to grocery stores, 2-steps for snorkeling, Magic Sands Beach and much more. We had breakfast at the house each morning and enjoyed grilling at night. The hammocks were a great addition as well as the geckos that joined us for breakfast. Short walk to view the sunset at the beach nightly.
