Property is clean and modern- feels very peaceful. In great location-15 minutes from the airport and downtown. Porch was beautiful. This is as advertised.

Fit our families needs perfectly! Great view, host was very responsive, and the beach gear was a nice added bonus. We stayed in the lower level, it can get a little noisy depending who’s upstairs, but overall it wasn’t an issue for us.

The unit was very airy, spacious and the view spectacular.No consideration for the experience seemed spared. Location was great, when hot days ran too hot on the coast, escaping to the rental was a fantastic cool down with vibrant sunsets. The kitchen was well supplied, bathroom too. We could not be more pleased.

Wonderful time spent on the lanai and in the clean lines of the modern-style living quarters. Beautiful view and fantastic perch above the ocean! We had such a great time in this place!

Modern, clean design unit with fabulous views. Watching the sunrise and sunset from a covered deck that runs the whole length of the place is the best part of the house. Kitchen supplies were fine and beds were comfortable. Being up the hill from the coast keeps the place cool without needing a/c or fans. I just wish thee were dimmers on all the lights so it wasn’t so bright at night. Would definitely stay here again.

This property exceeded my expectations! The home was lovely and the outside deck was simply perfect. The host was very responsive, and we loved being able to watch the sun set from the front deck. Fabulous property all around!

We we overwhelmed when we walked into the property. It was absolutely beautiful. Every detail has been thought out and beyond what one would expect. The apartment was beautifully decorated and super comfortable. The view from the oversized balcony was worth the price of admission alone.
Not only did they supply beach towels and chairs, but also umbrellas and even beach toys specifically for kids. There were TV's in both bedrooms - although not sure why one would stay home when they could be out exploring the island. We would highly recommend this property as it was a 5 star stay.

Lovely accommodation. Beautiful view! Everything you need. Only downside is people above us were very loud.

Overall our stay was fine. The thing that caught us off guard was the noise in the neighborhood with lots of traffic up and down the steep hill, and the amount of critters and insects making noise 24/7. That's just the nature of tropical climates I suppose, but without AC in the home, windows/doors had to be left open for a breeze, and with that, all the noise from the outside. Sleeping was a little challenging but the house itself was very well kept and clean. No fan in the bathroom for shower and such. It was nice to have beach chairs and an umbrella to use though! And having laundry on-site was handy. Overall good stay.

Really appreciated the hospitality of our host. She was super responsive and they provided a very clean very comfortable home in a great location overlooking Kona. We loved the sound of the frogs at night. The altitude of that location it really cools off nice at night and you can sleep really well. The kitchen was well equipped, clean, and very nicely designed. The bathroom Was great and everything worked really well. It was so great to have all the comfort of home nearly and it’s such a great price! Thank you so so much for sharing your home with our family!!!

We enjoyed this house so much the first time, we decided to come back this year. Before, we were in the upstairs unit, this trip we were downstairs. The upstairs had been unrenovated the first time, but we thought it was lovely nonetheless.
For this trip, we enjoyed the fully renovated downstairs unit and wow! Spectacular change! This property is on the slopes above the hot, flat lava fields that Kona proper sits on, so it's at least 10 degrees cooler and much wetter, a welcome relief after a day of rambling around the town. The view from the balcony lanai is stunning.
The unit was spotlessly clean, the kitchen was well-equipped for the simple cooking we did and the bed was very comfortable. Our only gripe was the family upstairs. There was a young boy who decided he had to run around the unit, dashing from room to room. His parents didn't stop him and they, themselves thumped around like elephants. This continued, even after we complained to the manager, who asked them to be considerate of their downstairs neighbors. We endured this for almost a week. The takeaway lesson--we will specifically ask for the upstairs unit, renovated or not!
But, all in all, we loved this place and will make this our go-to home away from home when next we visit Kona.
