I thought parking was gonna be an issue turns out there was just enough for my guest n I near the pool area and the walk is brief from unit to pool and car….
Although we keep it around 76 degrees on thermostat it was much colder downstairs for sure so happy that went well…
We stayed here with our family of 4 and my husband's 92 year old father. Bedrooms were spacious, beds were comfortable, and the unit was large enough for us all to spread out. Generous supply of beach towels, chairs, and equipment made going to the beach easy. On breezy days there was no need to turn on the AC, as the unit has two sliding doors, fans and many windows to allow the air to stay cool. Wonderful spacious kitchen with large granite countertops for easy meal preparation. The pool area was an easy short walk behind the unit, but never noisy. Lionel was immediately responsive to any inquiries, even supplying two types of coffee makers to satisfy all coffee making preferences. We highly recommend Lionel and his lovely unit.

We loved this comfortable, quiet house on beautiful grounds! Lionel was a great host. He answered questions quickly, and communicated well.
Our favorites about the house; super-comfortable beds, the spacious, light-filled living room with comfortable seating, and close location to the pool, but still a private setting with very little outside noise. The view out the living room windows, across the golf course was lovely, and the lanai was also private, with nice planting around it. The house was very clean, and having ceiling fans in all the bedrooms really helped with keeping the temperature comfortable.
It is also a short 10 minute walk to the beautiful Hilton complex, where you can walk around for free.
Our least favorite things: we didn’t use the lanai as much as we wanted to because the furniture was very uncomfortable and awkwardly placed. Investing in a couple of arm chairs and a small side table for drinks, and moving them from the uneven steps to the other side of the dining table would help a lot!
The kitchen was, overall, very good for a rental. But there was no Kuerig, and the coffee maker is definitely on its last legs. We could have used more plates. With 6 of us, we had to wash plates after every meal, and didn’t have any extras for serving food.
Also, not a big deal for us, but the soaking tub in the master bedroom is only effective for a small child to soak in! 😉
Overall, we would definitely choose to stay there again and highly recommend it!
Thank you for opening up your home to us. We enjoyed our stay. Everything was very clean, as seen in the photos. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well supplied with all our cooking needs. We also appreciated the beach chairs, towels, umbrella, and ice chest. We would love to stay with you again.
We had a great stay. The location is excellent - close to A-bay and a number of other great beaches along the coastline. The amenities in the kitchen in particular were phenomenal, allowing us to cook many meals. Also having a number of beach items was great. Plenty of space and comfort for my extended family.
We've been to the big Island around 10 times now and have stayed in hotels and condos and always looking for something better each time. This location is the best so far and we all agreed that we would stay here again if we can.
This condo was absolutely perfect for our family getaway. Spacious, clean, and they had everything we needed to have a blast at the beach! Lionel was a wonderful host, and was so kind and quick to respond to any questions. 100% would recommend!
We loved the condo...it was spacious, clean, well-stocked, and comfortable for all three generations of our family. We loved the accessibility to the many great, local beaches. Would recommend and are already talking about returning in the future.
The property is in a nice quiet part of the island. We really enjoyed our time on the big island and the condo was very comfortable. We would stay here again.
Quiet, comfortable place to stay. Useful kitchen, laundry and beach amenities. A convenient location to great beaches. Two stories allow for early risers and late sleepers to coexist comfortably.

One of the best stays in the 40 years I’ve been going to the Kohala Coast. Very relaxing super host and just a great feeling of aloha.
Thanks Lionel and Michelle

After a little confusion getting in we never stopped enjoying this home. I did wish for a Swiffer as we stayed three weeks and I had to use paper towels to clean the kitchen area.
There could be one more chair on the upstairs patio.
All of the beach items were very useful.

We had a wonderful stay. The place had everything we needed to enjoy hawaii. Also, any questions were quickly answered from the Host.
Our stay here, was first made easy by Lionel. He was very quick to answer and help out. The house is exactly as described and has all you need for your visit to Hawaii. It is in a great, very quiet neighborhood. His home is steps from the pool. His supplies for the beach and pool are more than enough. We had four adults, a toddler and an infant stay and we all had comfortable space. I would highly recommend this house to stay in.
We had a wonderful time here! Condo has everything we needed from kitchen appliances, dishes, utensils to beach equipment, towels, boogie boards and more! Great communication and would highly recommend this place. Thanks for everything and for helping make a fabulous vacation!
Check in was quick and easy. The provided information was very thorough. Communication with Lionel was fantastic. He was very responsive and helpful with any questions/needs from the time of booking through checkout. The home was clean and very well furnished. We did not need anything. There was plenty of beach gear and pool toys. A high chair and pack and play provided for an infant. Even 2 bikes! Kitchen had plenty of cooking supplies and even came with a good assortment of spices/dry goods. We really appreciated the provided laundry detergent so we could stay on top of laundry. We would definitely stay here again!
The place was nicely appointed, very clean, exactly as described on the listing. We will stay here again for sure when we bring our family with us to the island. Would likely stay somewhere a little closer to the action if we went without the kids =).
The condo was beautifully furnished, clean and very comfortable for our stay. Had everything we needed. The owner answered our phone call immediately when we had a question. Great location. Close to many areas to visit, dine or shop.
The property was roomy and comfortable for my adult family of 5. The fans & air conditioning was great. The pool is small, but nicely close by. We enjoyed the Tommy Bahama chairs and 3 boogie boards provided. Found some nice beaches and a few good snorkeling spots.
The condo carpeting was Very dirty. They need a good cleaning. It also would of been nice if a mop was provided, besides a broom. We Stayed 2 weeks and would of used some cleaning supplies. Also we had to buy paper towels and TP, not a big deal, but annoying.
Property owner very accommodating and worked with us for early check-in. Centrally located property made it easy for us to travel easily around the island. We had a wonderful trip and will be back again.
We were unable to return the front door key to the lock box as it would not open for us to put it in.
We left the door key inside the condo as I was unable to contact the property manager before we departed at 6am.
I am congruent that I will not be charged
We had a great stay! Loved how close the home was to the community pool. Super convenient to King and Queen’s shop, and beach access. The owner was superb! Great response time and communication.
Will definitely book again when we come back to Kona.
Good experience from first contact through actual arrival communications excellent
