This is one of our favorite places to stay. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked, and we love sitting on the lanai overlooking the ocean. The location is great. We would definitely love to come back.
Great location and property! Layout with separate bedrooms / baths for each of 3 adult couples was PERFECT! Close but private! Would definitely stay here again....
Great property! We had our adult children and 2 grandkids, and the 3 separate spaces worked out perfectly!
The accommodations met our expectations. My husband and friends were totally pleased with the house. It has everything you need and more. Games, books, rain ponchos, etc... The kitchen is fully equipped. We cooked our Thanksgiving dinner (beautiful dishes, glassware, a variety of pots/pans, Tupperware containers for leftovers...even the knives were sharp). Good quality furniture and furnishings. Decor tastefully done. The closeness to the ocean is such a plus - we loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves. During the stay we were treated to a dolphin show which we were able to watch from the lanai. The pool and jacuzzi were set for perfect temperatures. Highly highly recommend this house.
This is a fantastic property for the right group. I will start with the negative. There is no AC. When we arrived the house had been closed up and it was very hot and stuffy. However, once we opened the doors and turned on the fans all the areas were comfortable a day later. Otherwise this was perfect for my husband and I, our grown son and grown daughter and her husband. There are 3 totally different living spaces. Due to the very distinct living spaces I would not great for a young family. For our crew we couldn't dream of a better property. It feels very old Hawaii in decor. The furniture is all very comfortable and not typical of rentals. The pool and Jacuzzi are gorgeous. for those with kids there is a gate around the pool if needed. There is a small yard in front of the breakwater that can be used for little games. There is a path from the yard to the rocks and ocean. The house if a home. It literally has everything. Guests leave there extra food and items so when we came the pantry was full of many great spices, condiments, rice and there were plenty of pool toys. There is a green egg and gas grill that we used nightly. But most importantly is the view and sound of the waves. We spent countless hours sitting on the expansive lanai relaxing, reading and listening to those waves. We will return.
The snorkeling and beach spots we read about in guidebooks were within blocks of this place. Decor was great for a vacation mood. We appreciated the MANY high-powered fans they had for every room. I doubt you can sleep closer to waves at any other property, so we slept great.
Great location, everyone had their own private space.
Overall fantastic experience!
Three families shared this beautiful home on the ocean, which was perfectly located for spearfishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, boogie boarding, local dining experiences, amazing sunsets, tours of the island.
When we return, we will definitely stay here again. The owners provided access to all of the beach essentials like chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards. They even had access to a minivan. We known we would’ve rented a car. all in all a perfect place for a kind of vacation
Such an amazing week!! After a full week of resort life in Maui, we chose to relax in Hawaii in this gorgeous fully stocked home. It was amazing to enjoy a full kitchen and multiple grills to cook our own food, private pool, and incredibly spacious separate living spaces. We met gracious locals and found our happy place. It was so hard to leave. Do not think twice about booking this house, it made our dream of living on the water a reality, even if just for a small amount of time!
Great location right on ocean. Beautiful sunsets. Good amenities. Warm days with pleasants nights. Loved the pool and lani.

We came to celebrate our 30th anniversary with our adult kids. This house was perfect - everybody had their own separate space to stay. The house is very well appointed with everything you need. We started our day on the huge lanai watching the kayakers & waves. While we were there we saw dolphins, a manta ray family swimming down close to the shoreline & there are eels that live under the rocks that you are able to see when the tide is out! You can also see the colorful fish in the waves as they come crashing in. It was amazing. The stunning sunsets every night were incredible. I could go on and on.. thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home💗

Absolutely loved our stay on the Big Island, and this house had a lot to do with that! Perfect for our 3 generation family— everyone had their own private space with beautiful, comfortable accommodations. It was so relaxing falling asleep to the sound do the ocean out the window every night! We loved the huge lanai with ocean views,sunsets and rainbows, the pool and spa were perfect for afternoons after island excursions, and the location of the house was excellent for exploring Kona. We also made two trips to the other side of the island (Volcanoes Nat’l Park one day and a trip to Hilo another) and the drive east wasn’t so bad either! The property was exactly as described, very clean and well stocked with pantry supplies as well as beach and pool equipment! We were a 3 minute drive from the Magic Sands Beach (and beach bar!) which was amazing for swimming and spotting turtles and colorful reef fish! I would 100% stay here again, this little slice of paradise was the perfect stay for our Hawai’i vacation!

This was our second stay at this property. We love the ocean front views, the pool, the lawn, the private parking, the location, and watching for dolphins and fish. It was a magical experience.
Amazing property in a perfect location for us to be away for some much needed rest. Home was beautiful and had everything you would need plus more!

Words can’t describe how amazing this property is. The best way to summarize it is that we had plans to do numerous activities throughout the island but couldn’t leave this home! It will blow you away

Teri the host, was amazing - so helpful and responsive. The house was gorgeous, and their attention to detail was impressive. The location was amazing - every day was like a wildlife show a few hundred yards in the ocean bay. Pods of 30-40 Dolphins went by every day. We saw humpback whales almost every day breaching. The ocean waves coming in right to the shore of the house made it seem like you were in the ocean. We are coming back and going to stay at this house again for sure.

This was an amazing place to witness a series of winter storms come through. From the waves crashing, thunder booming, raindrops pelting, and wind whistling, we felt snug and cozy in the house during the storms. Since the seas were rough, we were unable to do much swimming or snorkeling but enjoyed relaxing in the house. It's well-stocked and the three separate units are wonderful for larger mixed groups. Teri was a very communicative and knowledgeable host. We would recommend the house to friends and family.
We had a fabulous stay at this beautiful home. The ocean view cannot be beat, and the location is perfect. The house was extremely well stocked and comfortable. The separation of the bedrooms allowed for privacy, while the lanai was the perfect spot for everyone to meet up and watch the ocean. We definitely hope to be back!
Spend your vacation with the sound of booming waves lulling you to sleep. Awaken to the sunshine and dolphins splashing out in the ocean in front of the the lanai. Explore the sea life in the rocks in front of the house, crabs, eels, and other assorted critters. This home is the ultimate island getaway!

Simply put not much more you could want or ask for. While there are many local options from beaches, snorkeling, restaurants and shopping there was not much desire to leave the lanai! We found ourselves wanting to get back here every time we ventured out. The home and grounds are wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Waking up every morning to the ocean waves and gorgeous sunrise was a blessing. We’ll be back!
