Love the local vibe. Staying with Kay is very chill. The geckos are so cool.
The house was stocked with food, filtered water, chocklate, juice, lotions, sunscreen, anything you might need. Kai fixed anything wrong immediately and gave us fruit daily. The location is the best for attractions & snorkeling. The house is very dpacious. The only thing wrong is that Kay's place made the next place i went to very disappointing because i was used to such a great host, space, and check in.
Great location if you’re interested in the Captain Cook area. Simple, clean, non-resort like property. Host was very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Property was perfect for my purposes.
Excellent location. Generous and helpful host. Charming Village community. Apartment had everything you could possibly need. Older interior.
ReLaxing and so much Aloha. Mahalo KayDea and Rocky
Relaxing, peaceful stay. Kay's place is easy short walk to Manini Beach for snorkeling and water activities. It's a great place for investigating things along the Kona coast. Host was very responsive, helpful, and answered all of our questions.
The location of this rental couldn't be better! It is steps from the bay and from kayak rentals to head out to the monument. Two-step and the place of refuge are just a couple miles down the road. The house itself is spacious and clean with a thoughtfully stocked kitchen. Air conditioning in one bedroom. The host was kind and courteous, helping us settle in despite the late hour of our arrival and the downstairs neighbor was such a delight to chat with and meet her cats. Highly recommend! We hope to be back.
A very handy & convenient place to stay. Beds were fine & shower pressure was fantastic. A little warm in the evenings but cooled off nicely for sleeping. Host was available for any questions & very kind.
Location was nice, within walking distance (5 mins) from a bay with Captain Cook Monument. Unit is above a very nice couple. Actual unit is very dated but was clean. A/C unit in main bedroom, otherwise there are fans. Washer/dryer are outside on 1st floor and shared wirh couple down stairs
We really enjoyed staying at Kei's property. The space and grounds were exactly as depicted. It was spacious, clean and suited us and our stay perfectly. Enjoyed the location, very close to Mainini Beach and the Place of Refuge. Kei was very kind and helpful even when we accidentally locked outselves out, twice. Felt like we were staying with friends.
Kay was so kind and shared fresh fruit from her fruit stand. We loved the short walk to the beach. It was so close and we walked there to snorkel and watch the sunset. We were just down the road from Two Step beach. The unit is dated but very clean. It was a great base for our vacation
Charming condo, with all the necessities. The neighbors downstairs are very nice, as is the landlady next door. Not far from the ocean. Quiet location, with birdsong and the smell of flowers in the morning. We really enjoyed it.
Basic two bedroom with all amenities!
Check what’s there before going to shop!
Kay was delightful and accommodating and invited us to pick fruits on property….wonderful bonus!!
Close to beach and share the beauty of Kona
This area is incredibly beautiful
Truly heaven on earth
Amazing location. You really feel like a local. So close to key Captain Cook venues. Apt is large. They supply all that you need and more. Frig was stocked with some great treats. Such Aloja spirit.
WiFi is sporadic and not strong in half of the house. Window unit for the master and many fans provided.
Overall a great experience and super nice owner Kay!
This upstairs unit is a 5-minute walk from the most beautiful beaches in Hawaii. Kaye was an amazing generous host. The unit is well-equipped and very clean. The heat during our stay was intense so we scheduled our time away from the unit in the afternoon and evening. A window AC unit made the bedroom bearable at night. Thanks for a great stay Kaye!

Location within close walking distance of Kealakekua Bay and Manini Beach. Kay was very responsive, helpful and generous with her abundance of fruit. We enjoyed our stay!

Amazing location a short walk from a wonderful historic bay with fantastic snorkeling. Swam with a manta ray one morning.
Kay was so kind, provided us with more fruit than we could handle, and plenty of other food and goodies.
The neighborhood itself is also great to walk around, with plenty of beautiful flowers and birds.
Very short drive to Two Step and The City of Refuge, both of which are must sees.
I would recommend this spot to anyone I know.

We thoroughly loved staying here! The location is amazing- close to the water, and lots of things to do. The kitchen is well equiped and the space is comfortable with two full bedrooms. Kay is a gracious host - she shared fruits from the property and let us pick some too. She runs a fruit and baked goods stand next door. We would definitely stay here again!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Kay's comfortable and spacious apartment. We love Kealakekua Bay and all that it offers and Kay's apartment was well suited to our experience. Kay was very responsive to any of our needs and her Hawaiian hospitality was very much appreciated. Maholo Kay!
One of our favorite places on the big island is the Manini Beach Park at Kealakekua Bay. This is the first time we rented a property in this area. This house was within easy walking distance of Manini Beach. Kay was an accommodating host and allowed us to make a quick stop, before check in time, to drop off food we were bring with us from another rental. Kay shared some of the fruit with us from the many fruit trees on the grounds. The house itself was an older home and a bit dated. The most unfortunate thing about the house was the windows did not face the prevailing wind and it would get hot during the afternoon. We didn’t spend much time at the house so it wasn’t too much of a problem for us. Fortunately, there was an air conditioner in the master bedroom which made that room comfortable for sleeping.

Very homey and well-equipped house, just a couple of blocks to a nearby park and tiny beach.
