About this property

This lovely, tiled, spacious (300 sq. ft.) studio with large covered lanai and tropical garden view is one of several studios in our Guest House. Wake up in the morning to birds singing and pick papayas from your lanai. Our studio has a comfortable queen bed, sleeper sofa, kitchenette, full bath, and cable TV. We offer free WiFi, convenient onsite parking, beach chairs/towels, coolers & boogie boards. Great central location, on the hillside overlooking the Kona Coast, 7 miles north of downtown Kailua. 10 minutes from airport (no noise) for those late flights. Owners have been hosting Big Island visitors for over 30 years, speak German, and are happy to share suggestions and answer questions if guests desire.

We provide everything to make this your home away from home. After a day of fun, relax on your private lanai and listen to the gentle rustling of banana leaves.

Our studio has a kitchenette so you can cook meals. The kitchenette includes refrigerator /freezer, microwave, coffeemaker, toaster, electric skillet, rice cooker/vegetable steamer, portable stove top with pot, hot water kettle and dishes.

Dish washing and laundry facilities are located down the hall. There is a small charge for washer/dryer and detergent is included.

We appreciated the close proximity to the Kona Airport and the autonomy of our private suite.

Cozy. The night noise of the birds and inhabitants of the "honey i shrunk the kuds jungle yard" (its actually amazing) was a bit nervewracking the first night but then your used to it (after shutting every possible window-ut drowns em out) trust that the heavy steppers upstairs were WAY NOISIER then the jungle yard. Very clean. Bring your own bed pillows cause those suckers are flat and thin. Comfy bed! Convenient washer & dryer. Home is definetely off the beaten path but you wont get rosd noises for sure. All in all we would definitely stay here again if we return to Kona! :)

Property was fine, but neighbors inconsiderate with barking dogs.

Nothing bad to say at all. Nanette and her coworker whose name escapes me provided the best stay you can imagine. You are staying in a beautiful neighborhood of locals, so respect that you are on vacation, but those living around you have work. That being said, no noise issues at all, but let me tell you the sounds of wildlife are so amazing and as calming as the sounds of being at the beach. This was the ultimate experience for me.

Well-appointed apartment with a large and lovely wrap around balcony surrounded by jungle. Minutes from downtown. Perfect for a couple looking for a special quiet place.

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at this VRBO. It has been an excellent experience both times. The Aloha is outstanding !

The walls were very thin, the plumbing very noisy. Roosters and turkeys next door, plus the noise of other guests talking detracted from enjoyment. The kitchenette was minimal at best and had no easy place for washing dishes. Best for making toast, soup and similar simple dishes. The units were clean and larger than expected which was good. Overall, a weak four star.
