We had a wonderful stay at Annie's place! It was well equipped with everything we needed, including all cooking utensils needed for meal and a beautiful pool/outdoor area to hang out in! There were six of us in our group and there was plenty of space! Being Canadians it was quite hot with no AC, but there were plenty of fans to help keep the place cool! The location was great, close to the beach and must see sights. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Kona! Thank you Annie!

We are a group of 3 couples that came for a beach elopement and 3 of us had 50th birthdays to celebrate!The house and property are gorgeous! The house has absolutely everything we needed, and it is in a perfect location (we had a rental car)There is snorkeling, shopping and activities all within a 10 minute drive.The pool area was our favorite place to be every day and the beds are super comfy too! Annie, the host, was very responsive, helpful and went above and beyond. We truly enjoyed our stay and feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay at this property and would 100% recommend it to everyone.

comfortable house. very few windows that close, so it is open to the neighborhood. The neighbors were nice although there was construction for the first few days next door so it was very loud. thanks for the use of your lovely hale.

As local Hawai’i residents we were stoked with Annie’s house in Kailua-Kona! It was close to stores and restaurants and the pool was a huge plus! We cannot wait to return for our next girls trip 😍

This house has a beautiful outdoor area with pool, eating and sitting areas, and Weber grill, surrounded by lush tropical plants and trees. The house is roomy with comfy beds, however it could use a bit of updating and maintenance.

Lovely house and great pool. Annie was super responsive to questions during our stay. As others have noted no AC but definitely manageable with all the fans

A lovely home in a lovely and convenient location. No AC was a little tricky but fans are well placed and very helpful. Easy stay to get around the BI and would highly recommend. Home is well stocked for outings and the pool was such a treat!

The house looks just like the pictures! This place is in a good, quiet location very close to the main highway and practically within walking distance to magic sands beach (great boogie boarding spot). The property has beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and a cart available for beach excursions. There was an adaptation phase for us with the home not having Air conditioning, but cooling off in the pool and using fans to channel air through the house worked well. We had a wonderful time and spent several days in the house recuperating from big adventure days.

I was remiss in not checking if AC was available in this house. Due to the humidity in Kona, it took us a couple of days to get used to it. The many fans in the house helped, but it was the pool area that became our haven every day, after visiting many sites in Kona!!

The house was absolutely amazing! Pictures don’t do it justice! The back yard and pool was our own private Oasis and we loved every minute of it! Gorgeous views From the front porch! The location and Neighborhood was wonderful! We had everything we could have possibly needed in the house! Annie was able to answer all of our questions and concerns!

My wife and I lived at Annie’s Hale for a month over the Christmas-New Year holidays and had a wonderful time. The Hale was very clean, smelled good and was well equipped. Lots of fans around the house and they were well used and kept us comfortable. Three nice sized bedrooms and two bathrooms gave us lots of room to spread out. Annie’s family business used to be hardscaping so there are lots of reminders throughout the house, from the extensive slate floors in the main rooms to the massaging pebble floor of the bedroom opening to the back yard. It was an adventure to explore. The real star of the property is the huge deck and swimming pool out back. It is an oasis of imaginative hardscaping and tropical plants. The pool is very clean, smell-free, and was ideal for wading with its gently sloped entry – perfect for small children. The water temperature in the deep end could be bracing, but we soon got used to that. We laughed as the local mynas, java sparrows, spotted and zebra doves, and saffron finches jostled for room to bathe and drink in the warm shallows. I also had a welcome visitor, a small 5” lizard, who would often perch on my toes to catch any flies foolish enough to harass me. He must have caught 8 or 10 while we were there. The geckos were also around and so fun to watch. Would we stay at Annie’s Hale again. Definitely, yes.
