The stay was nice. We wouldn't stay in the home again primarily because of the road leading to it. I wish I had done a little more research in to that prior to booking.
Thank you,

This house has amazing views and was very clean. The neighborhood was quiet. I think we underestimated the drive from the highway to the property; it was pretty steep and winding and took us about 15 minutes to get down to the house and maybe 10 minutes to get back out. We got used to it though. We really enjoyed our stay!
We liked the remote location (make sure you stop and get food and supplies before you get there). Great, friendly neighborhood for walk. Great views from the pool.
For this visit, we wanted to stay more to the south so we could explore that area and Volcanoes (1.5 hr.). Kona is about an hours drive north. No restaurants or groceries close by but well-stocked kitchen and bath. Just purchase groceries before arriving. Great to have a W/D. Outdoor shower was good and private. Bed has topper that was a bit too soft for our liking. Warm in the evenings if no trade-winds but lots of fans to somewhat help out. Mid-80's when we visited in early October. Would suggest a second key with one left in the lockbox in case the primary key is misplaced. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Round House although a bit disappointed that the view to the ocean included a hodgepodge of so many houses. Did enjoy the sunsets though...
This is an amazing place to stay. Quiet location for those who do not want to be in the "thick of it". All the amenities that one could need. Nicely located to explore Hawaii. The owners were kind and helpful.
The property is lovely with stunning views. The owners have amazing attention to detail. Love the spa shower and the screened outdoor "oasis". So grateful for all of the items the owners provide such as bottled water dispensers, spices, multiple coffee makers, laundry and dish soap... too much to mention! Highly recommend this home.
The home is everything we expected… away from traffic and tourists! Perfect for a couple! Sunsets were awesome! The home was very clean, and beds very comfortable. 30 miles south of Kona. So expect an hour drive to town. Great location to drive north or south when visiting the entire island.
Our 10 day stay was just right!
Wonderful place to stay, quite with a great view of the ocean.
Nice, remote, very quiet, 180 degree view of the ocean.
The house was unique ad fun.
Roughly halfway between Kona and Volcanoes National Park
The house is out further from town which was exactly what we wanted! The neighborhood was quiet and had a beautiful view of the ocean and the hills. The pool was perfect! It has a good bit of shade to get of the sun and the heat. Would love to stay here again!!! Be prepared for mosquitos. We got ate up the first day. Went and got bug spray and we were good the rest of the trip.
We loved the fact that this beautiful home was off the beaten path - so it is not for everyone - but if you are seeking a quiet, private get away with stunning ocean views, whale watching from the deck and your own private pool, this place can't be beat. The house was clean, comfortable and fully equipped with everything we needed to make our stay easy and relaxing.
