Beautiful location on the water with incredible views and sunsets! Close to town and walking distance to beaches. Some slight issues with the property - while the upstairs unit is lovely, the downstairs unit leaves some things to be desired. The portable AC unit is not enough for the lower level. The large west facing glass doors also have no curtains or blinds so the sun is streaming in all day and heating up the space. This would be such a small, cheap fix. The downstairs unit smelled very musty due to the lack of circulation and lack of AC. The outdoor stairs to the downstairs unit have a gate and the gate continued jamming and not opening. We could not leave the gate open due to small children and access to the ocean. I contacted property management about the gate issue and they said they would send someone out but to our knowledge did not. If you truly need all 5 bedrooms I would recommend looking for an alternative. The downstairs bedrooms could be greatly improved with the additions of curtains and minisplit AC, especially at this price point. We also experienced some termite issues in one of the bedrooms upstairs and termite droppings on the bed. While management came out to clean up the issue, due to the holidays they were not able to provide treatment. We understand that bugs and moisture happen in the tropics, but even still these issues could be better mitigated and addressed.
The house was wonderful and fully stocked for our party of 8. We all had plenty of space and appreciated the two dining tables and couch that seated all of us. The lanai was our favorite space for looking at the surf, enjoying sunsets, and the infinity pool. The host was great to work with and responsive to our requests.
We had a fabulous week with our grown children and their partners. The separate bedrooms gave everyone their space and then we came together around the kitchen, dining room and pool. Amazing views and we even saw manta rays and dolphins from the deck! Just make sure to follow rules about cleanliness to keep out the bugs!
This house was an amazing retreat for a multigenerational family/friend vacation. We loved the space and view as well as being able to take short walks to snorkel, beach comb, swim and boogie/body board. Highly recommend! Note: there are no internal stairs between floors in case youāre wondering āŗļø
We loved the views and listening the waves crash on the lava rocks. The house itself is well kept up and offered right mix of privacy with many nice bedrooms and bathrooms plus great social gathering space. We spent most of our time on the lanai. Pool was larger than I thought from the pics, though do wish it was heated (our only area for improvement). Easy 10 min walk to awesome snorkeling/surfing beach to the south and 15 in walk to Magic Sands beach to the north.
A/C did not work in two of the bedrooms (one off the kitchen & downstairs). Barbecue burners need to be replaced. Flame is very irregular making it essential to move food frequently. Need some larger cups for coffee. All the knives need to be sharpened. Could also use a large frying pan with big sides when cooking for a large group. Good location, garage is a bit tricky to exit because of poor visibility of traffic.
Loved the view and the proximity to the beaches and town. Parking was tough as the property only accommodates two cars, any additional cars would need to park on the street. The house was spacious and we loved the separate space downstairs for our adult children. Great lanai to watch whales and sunsets!
Everything about this property including the views, the location, the well stocked house of games and towels, the fantastic kitchen and rooms were all spectacular. Enjoy a splash in the pool or enjoying your coffee/evening cocktail watching the waves, boats and whales! The beaches were a short walk away and there were many shops and restaurants close by. We had a family of 5 adults and 2 kids and had plenty of space to spread out and sleep and loved listening to the sound of the crashing waves. We area already trying to figure out when we can come back!
Our family loved our stay at this property. The location is perfect. Is close enough to Kona to be very convenient but far enough to be quiet. You can hear the ocean waves and see surfers at the beach to the south. We would highly recommend this property. The hosts had very clear communication and procedures.
We had a great time & enjoyed our stay. Our family group included Grandparents, 3 middle aged adults & 3 young adults (20,18 & 16). Everyone had space to enjoy the company or take a little time to themselves. Pool was great. Downstairs suites were suited to young adults, not likely a good fit for young children. Entry to it was through the outside stairs. Upstairs was nicely laid out & well stocked. Nice to have private bathrooms for each upstairs bedroom. Downstairs shared one bathroom. All had showers. Lots of room for everyone. We were all from the Canadian prairies so the ocean & the waves were a treat. We had a couple items that needed attention & the property manager was very helpful & prompt in helping us out. Easy to contact thru email. Pictures on the rental site are quite accurate. Would recommend this vacation home.
Very great location for family and friends Property gives everyone their own space
The house presented like it did in the listing. It was clean and well stocked with supplies. The view of the ocean was spectacular. We could see whales, dolphins and beautiful sunsets from our deck. There were wonderful sea creatures in the tide pools on the rocks. We all were very happy with this house.
