We loved the layout and the view was nice. The coqui serenade was actually very fun. The only issue we had was the 5 per load of laundry wasn’t listed in the property description so we weren’t prepared for that but we were able to get cash for that. The kitchen is very well equipped, the bed was comfy and the pillows were great! I always worry about pillows when I can’t travel with my own pillow, I really appreciated the pillows. Thank you!

With the exception of the birds, it was very quiet. A beautiful view and fully stocked kitchen.

The location so close to the airport was great! We had a wonderful stay and would stay here again should we get to return.

We enjoyed our stay at this rental, one of four that make up the Bear Place Guest House. If everyone were there at once it might get a little loud. As others mention, there are frogs and roosters, so bring earplugs. Didn’t keep us from getting excellent sleep. As the house is on a steep hill a ways from town, there’s really no place to go for a walk. We picked up groceries in town and used the kitchen to make meals.

We appreciated the amenities offered, making us feel like we were home. Great location away from the hustle and bustle but still close to Kona. Beautiful view from the lanai.

The place was located in a safe and cozy secluded area in Kona, Hawaii. It was clean and spacious. Every accommodation was provided that we needed from the kitchen to the bathroom. The hospitality is unmatched! Thank you for a lovely stay in Hawaii!

The suite was very easy to find after arriving close to midnight. Nannette left very detailed directions! The suite was very clean and well stacked with all the necessities. Lovely sunsets off the lanai! We would recommend this suite.

The Orchid suite was clean and the pictures on the listing were an accurate representation of the space. It made for a great home base and spot to come back after a day out adventuring. While I didn't utilize the kitchen, I could appreciate that there were basic starter supplies for coffee including creamer pods, salt, pepper, etc.
The house is nestled on the hillside above Kona, making it a good retreat away from the city. Everything was still within a 15-20 minute drive along a very easy to navigate route. The property also had off street parking with enough room for all guests. The downside to it's location was more in the multiple roosters that seem to be nearby. If you are a light sleeper but not an early riser, you'll want to make sure you have earplugs or some other form of white noise.
I also loved that the check out instructions were super short instead of a chore list before leaving. It was great to just gather myself stuff and make sure the place was locked up.
Overall the space was good, especially for the cost and I would recommend it to others.

Very comfortable, homey, and excellently stocked kitchen. Perfect for someone looking to make most of their own meals. Neighborhood was a little noisy with barking dogs, roosters, and coqui frogs, so if you are light sleeper might not be the best. But i wasn't bothered much. Lanai (porch) faces ocean, but large bananas and bamboo was blocking a lot of the view. Needs some radical topping. The living area is nice and roomy and the outdoor area was also nice and big with recliner chairs, and also beach chairs and body boards supplied. I think with a little bit more work this would easily be a 5 star place to stay.

We had a wonderful time at Bears' Place Guest House. The apartment was clean and comfortable, with a great lanai with sea ocean where we enjoyed our breakfasts, and it is well equipped with kitchen supplies. We spent the nights surrounded by chirping birds, which was amazing. The closest grocery shop is within a 10 minutes drive, while supermarkets are within 15 minutes.
