We have stayed at many houses in the Islands over the years and we consider this one to be the best! The setting is ideal with expansive ocean views and beautiful landscaping. Kona is around 10-15 minutes away so there are lots of places to eat within easy reach. The house is well equipped, everything has instructions and the owner is available anytime to help if needed. This was an important anniversary for us and we were looking for seclusion which this property certainly provides!

The layout of the house and gardens is great. Lovely pool, putting green and badminton area plus a picturesque garden and drive way. Comfortable bedrooms and large living area and kitchen. Very well equippedHost is excellent. Regular and clear communication. We had a major storm and power outage while we were there but the house had the necessary flashlights, candles and barbecue to make do.

This property was absolutely amazing and worked perfectly for our family of five. It was like our own private resort. It had everything we needed and more. A gorgeous property. The communication with Shannon was above and beyond what we could ever expect. Everything went perfectly smoothly. Such a great experience.

This is a fabulous home managed by a fabulous owner.
It is apparent from the moment you book Collessie By The Sea that Shannon will do almost anything to help make your stay as easy and as enjoyable as possible. From an extensive list of things to do, restaurants to consider, excursions to take, and little nuances of the town and getting around, her advance planning list of ideas and suggestions was like having our own personal concierge.
But the real gem is the house. Located in a beautiful upscale neighborhood, it is modern, immaculate, exceeding well equipped. Everything (and I mean everything) is labeled with clear directions, pictures and even QR codes for how to operate the various features.
The setting, overlooking the the Kona coast has an unobstruceted and expansive view of the Pacific Ocean. Expect to be treated nightly to jaw-dropping sunsets as you enjoy a glass of wine on the deck overlooking the infinity pool.
Finally, and most impressively, was the level of communication with Shannon before, during and after our stay. She made sure we were doing well, enjoying ourselves and helping solve any problems or questions that arose during our stay. Always available 24/7 by text or phone, she is without question, one of the best owners / managers we have ever worked with.
Mahalo Nui Loa for a magical Hawaiian holiday!

We have vacationed in the Kailua-Kona area a number of times and this is, without a doubt, the best place we have ever stayed! I'm not sure what I can add given all the positive reviews below. Shannon, the host, was the best. The house was beautiful, very clean, and well stocked. The view was absolutely amazing. The pictures really don't do it justice. And, the pool was AWESOME!!!

Cannot say enough good things about the property and the Host. Even better than the pictures show. Shannon (the Host) was very responsive and accomodating. We had an amazing time. Hope to come back for our 30th Wedding Anniversary. Thank you!

Shannon did an amazing job communicating before, during, and after our stay- top notch! Mahalo!!
It had the most amazing view, serene & luxurious pool and landscaping- a perfect place for our adult kids and us to enjoy the outdoors each day!
With a rental car you can get to anywhere you want on the west side easily, including restaurants, excursions, beaches, and shopping!
I am a clean-freak about linens and bathrooms, and this house passed with 5 stars! I have never said that before this stay.
I also loved that they provided snorkel gear, boogie boards, and chairs for the beach.
We would definitely recommend this place and are looking for a time to revisit! :)
Mahalo!🌺
