We loved Ono Hale! It is conveniently located and a perfect hub. We loved the lanai and spent our mornings and evenings., listening to birds. It was great to have the beach towels and chairs to use. For our snorkeling days. We enjoyed coming back and taking a dip in the pool. Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. Wonderful place for our family. (Not a negative for us, but there are lots of stairs and this could be a problem for someone). We would stay again!

Loved the view, location and beauty of the house. Perfect areas to enjoy outside and the pool. Being met at the property was nice as well.
Not ideal for older family members as the stairs are a lot- as well as the driveway. However perfect for our family needs.

We stayed at Ono Hale for 3 weeks on our recent trip to the Big Island and must say that it was a fantastic trip. We were greeted by a member of the Property Management group who gave us quick rundown(no more than 10 min) it was great. Lots of items to use at the beach and must say the we have not stayed at a rental that had so many different appliances to use. You certainly do not want for anything to prepare a dinner.
The sunset views from the Lanai are fantastic. We would actually schedule our days to sit and watch them. We quite enjoyed the pool area and spent time in the pool as well. It is refreshing on a hot day to cool off.
The house itself is very spacious and very relaxing. We had read comments on the stairs, however no one in our group had an issue and two actually are awaiting knee surgery.
The Property Management group was also incredible. On our second last day the coffee machine quit working and within an hour there was a new one dropped off even though we had said not to worry about bringing a new one. Great service!!
We would definitely stay at Ono Hale again.

We really enjoyed the house and the setting of this vacation rental. The sunsets were spectacular, the house spacious, wonderful lanais, lots of good beach and pool toys, and the private pool was great for our grandkids. Be aware that the driveway can be daunting, and longer wheelbase vehicles like minivans are not suited to go to the upper level. The kitchen was well-stocked, although all the knives were pretty dull, it would be good to have at least one sharp knife for cooking. Our big complaint is that the house is advertised as sleeping 8, including two on a sleeper sofa. The sleeper sofa is horrible, really unusable as a bed, and needs to be replaced. And there were eight of us, including two little ones. Fortunately Knutson's managers were great, really considerate and responsive to the situation, and got us foam pads and bedding for the little ones. If you have 8 adults in your party, make sure the sleeper sofa has been replaced!

This house is gorgeous. I would have loved to have seen it in its prime. The house is so nice that the minor negatives really show. On stepping through the door, the first thing that I noticed were scratches on the floor. The hardwood floor was magnificent, but the scratches really stood out. Theses scratches have been caused by people moving furniture. My guess is that non-family types have been renting this house, riding it hard and putting it away wet. Similarly, in the kitchen, the white range, refrigerator and sink all have visible scratches. These could easily be touched up with bathtub porcelain repair paint. There were also small paint scratches on walls that could be easily touched up. The toilet seat in the master bedroom was visibly warn and discoloured. Many stains are carpets.It the totality of the circumstatnces, these defects are miniscule. The issue it that the property is so nice that the minor issues do stand out.The house has a great layout. Lots of space both inside and on the lanai. The pool area is great as well. The only negative being that it was unheated. Air temperatures were in the low 80's as was the pool. You had to be hot to go in (January). We could not find any lighting in the pool area. It would have been nice to use at night. I did find at a later time, underwater lights in the pool but no one could tell me how to turn them on. There were some pool and beach toys & chairs. Two masks, both broken.The house is not air conditioned. Generally there is a nice breeze. As long as the house is opened up, it is well ventilated. There was one night that was very still that we wished that there was AC.For such a large property, the propane grill was quite small. It worked, but had the typical hot/cold spots. I wouldn't have put good steaks on it as they would have been difficult to cook.The property was very clean.I would stay here again. There are many small things that don

Big island vacation. The location of the house was great, but you need a car. The property is beautiful with amazing sunsets and views for days! The pool is great and pool deck gets a nice amount of sun. The house could use some work. The kitchen is decently equipped but the knives are dull, broken and pretty cheap. The patio screen doors fall off the track a lot and need to be replaced as they are patched together. The ceiling fans all need to be replace as they are loud and don’t move much air anymore. The patio furniture consists of two chairs two side tables and two dining tables. It would be nice to have a place for 4-6 people to sit comfortably and enjoy the great sunset/ views! The carpet in the house has to be replaced as it has lots of stains and is kinda gross. The home had lots of great beach toys and chairs to use. Knutson was easy to work with and I would rent a property form them again, all in all it was a great vacation. I know this review looks bad but it’s not, just need to put a few $$ into the property to make it more in its price point. Enjoy the big island, it was great!

We went there for our 30th anniversary. The house is incredible with rooms for for entire family. Having bathrooms for each couple was especially nice. Very quiet neighborhood. We would definitely stay there again. Short drive to town for shopping or fun.

This property was very roomy, but had lots of stairs. The property was not AC which was not a problem except for one of the rooms location in the house made it very warm. The balconies were spacious and gave you a great view. Kitchen was large and easy to manuever in. The pool was clean. Our biggest problem with this property were the outside wooden steps. There was a sign that said "Caution, slilppery when wet" however there was nothing placed on the steps to help prevent some of the slipperyness. Two of my party took spills on these stairs and we both were very cautious. The stairs do not have good rail for holding onto so we stopped using these stairs for fear of someone else falling. If it weren't for the stairs being so dangerous this would have been an awesome place to be.

Great pool, deck and views. Our family had a great time and very comfortable in the house. The landscaping kept the pool private. We were able to relax all week and really close to many things to do in koba.
