We are not a corporation. We are a local Hawaii family who proudly HOSTS guests in our one and only home. As a HOSTED RENTAL we are fully HB 108 COMPLIANT, but you won't see us unless you need us, on site or by text 7 days a week. This is not a party house. We rent to fun-loving folks who seek tranquility in paradise.
(We have a custom CANCELLATION POLICY: "...full refund less VRBO fee plus 5% administrative fee for low season..." READ FULL POLICY BELOW)
**After March 2021, all taxes and fees are included in the price quoted. (For bookings made prior to March 2021, taxes will be collected in the week before arrival)**
The house is very large and we sometimes accommodate groups larger than the stated maximum (extra guest fees apply). Please send us an inquiry and how you plan to use the house.
Situated at the end of a long private drive, you have complete privacy. You can't see any neighbors or the street, but you can see miles and miles of sumptuous blue ocean.
There are many different spaces for relaxing and enjoying the peace. A large group can spread out and not see much of each other or gather in the great room for a banquet!

3 master suites!
3600 sq ft of indoor space,
6 lanai (porches) provide 2000+ sq ft of outdoor living space (most of it covered),

MORE DETAILS ABOUT THE HOUSE
Natural Air Conditioning: We are at a perfect elevation, with expansive ocean and coastline views. Folks who live 300 ft below us are in the lava desert with no greenery and where they need air conditioning many nights; homes 300 ft above us are in the cloud forest where you don't get direct sunlight some days. Here, the cool nights are a wonderful contrast to the warm sunny days. The temperature is just chilly enough most nights to want a light blanket, but warms into the 70’s by about 9am. Mosquitoes are almost never a problem. We are nestled between an ancient 'ohi'a forest and coffee, mango, and avocado groves. If it has rained recently the jungle sounds will fill the air (people sensitive to sound may want to bring silicone ear plugs for rainy nights). There may be some mosquitoes, especially at dusk, but guests find they can dine any evening on the front lanai, which is 20 ft off the ground, without any bug problems. This is a well-maintained, upscale residence but like all houses in Hawaii you will see the occasional gecko or beetle who has wandered into the house and can't find his way home. We mention this because geckos are so bright green and beautiful that they look plastic. Guests not familiar with Hawaii have been startled the first time they see one. Some have reached out, thinking it was a ...

Our family all came to celebrate my wifes and I anniversary. We needed a property that would accomodate all of our family. We had a great time. The property location was great. Very close to stores including Costco, Walmart and Target. Very clost to the airport and the pier. Lots of space. The house was able to accomodate 11 of us. Allie was a great hostess. She always responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had. Furthermore, there were many restaurants, hikes and beaches she recommended. I would highly recommend this property.

We had 10 people stay at the house and it was perfect for that size of a group. Close to town and very private. Loved the evening frogs, crickets and other night sounds. Lots of room for the family. The owner responded immediately when I had a question. Great location!

Sitting above Kona, this house became our homebase during our weeklong spring break class trip. Our time spent here was nothing short of relaxing and welcoming. The spacious interior provided ample room for rest and relaxation after long days traveling around the island. The five bedrooms contained twelve beds, in addition to extra air mattresses, allowing everyone to have a comfortable spot to sleep. Additionally, the numerous bathrooms were helpful to our group of 17 when finding time to clean up after a long day of snorkeling or hiking. The kitchen was well stocked with an impressive collection of appliances and a large cooktop. It became the bustling hub where we could create our large meals, prepare lunches, or indulge in a leisurely breakfast. The lanai provided us a large space where all our group could enjoy a meal together. The generosity of our host was evident from the thoughtful gesture of providing many household needs for our group. Such attentiveness only added to the charm of our experience. Overall, our time at this extraordinary property surpassed all expectations.

- Allie is a fantastic host! She responds in a timely manner. She was also very accommodating and flexible when I needed to decrease my guest count only to increase it later. She maintains an open line of communication in case issues rise up, someone left something behind, where to find toys/tools/etc. etc.
- It's a big, clean, open house with a fantastic view of the beach and ocean! Open floor plan. Plenty of fans in case it gets too hot. (Embrace that Hawai'i climate!!) There are toys and books too! Kitchen is stocked with utensils, pots, and pans too.
- Couldn't ask for a better location! Again, fantastic view that's also less than 15 min. away from Kailua-Kona city center, Costco, and the airport!
I couldn't ask for a better house, a better host, or a better vacation.

From the moment we arrived to when we left, our group loved the time spent in our paradise house. After a long day exploring the Big Island, we could relax on the lanai and watch the gorgeous sunsets. Never felt crowded and it was always peaceful. The price was great and we would highly recommend staying here. Mahalo!!

This place was the key to our fantastic family celebration of our wedding anniversary. Allyson was the perfect host along with her onsite team to provide recommendations and advise on how to enjoy our 10 day trip to the Big Island. It worked out to be everything we hoped for when we booked it to be able to have a great get together with enough space to have our privacy. Thank You.

Perfect location for a large family group!
We had a large family group here for a week. It was PERFECT!
Communication with Allyson was prompt and she was very accommodating. The house was beautiful and well equipped, the space was set up SO well for a large group, we ate most of our meals in the house and there was lots of space for prepping and eating. Some things that were very thoughtful-2 coffee makers and two crockpots-made cooking for our large group manageable. There were some water toys that the teens took to the beach and games and books that we enjoyed at the house.Even with our large group of children we felt comfortable-the house is perfect for families, clean but not pristine-exactly what feels most like home.
The slightly rural location provided privacy for such a large group as well as a feeling of safety being a bit off the busy roads as we had nine children from 1-7 years. Each individual family group had rented a vehicle so the 10-15 minute drive to the beach was very manageable and the house had lots of parking. The view and wildlife are spectacular! I would recommend this home!

This is a lovely secluded property not far from Kona. It's in the hills surrounded by gardens with very few neighbors. There is plenty of room and everything is supplied (except bar soap, which I recommend you bring with you). The owner is responsive, helpful, and very nice. There are books and maps for use around the area. It's not near the beach, so if that's what you want, this is not the property for you. The beaches are all within brief driving distance, especially the beach at Kona. We loved the place and would stay there again.

Very nice place to stay. We had a party of 21 adults, and found space for everyone. Allie was a great host and communicated with us throughout; answering all our little questions about the house.
Wholeheartedly recommend this place for family reunions, friends, or any party larger than just a core family.

The house was very clean! Had great views of the water. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook the food we bought. Plenty of extremely comfortable bed (we had a group of 11 and didn't even have to use all the beds). The property was tucked away and not in a neighborhood which was super nice. All the beach amenities needed so we didnt have to pack our own from home. The kods had lots of fun chasing around all the little geckos. It was also fun walking the property looking for the different fruits and plants that are in the house binder. The binder also has very good suggetions for beaches to visit and other activities. We would definitely recommend this house to other people planning on visiting the Kona area.
