The house was perfect for our family of 6. Ourselves and our two married sons and their wives. Plenty of room, every supply you would need on a beach holiday. The indoor space and outdoor space were lovely. The pool and hot tub were great after a day at the beach. Would definitely go back! Communication was quick and helpful. Would have been great to have 2 more beach chairs as there were 6 of us, but we made do! It was an amazing family trip!

The property was beautiful, well-equipped, airy and comfortable. We loved being a short walk to the pool/ fitness center and a short bike ride to the shops, which included the grocery store, coffee shop, juice shop and a couple of restaurants. One highlight was access to the Mauna Lani Beach Club. A beautiful sandy beach with great snorkeling and a beach path along the shore through ancient fishponds and tide oools and other beaches. The restaurant at the beach club served good food in a lovely setting. Our location was a short ride to Waikoloa for Sunset at the Lava Lava Beach Club and morning helicopter ride as well as the Mauna Kea Luau. An hour from kona for scuba, snorkel and night swim with the mantas. Overall everyone enjoyed having their space, the host was very friendly and responsive, the lanai was a lovely place to drink coffee and watch hummingbirds. We loved it!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home! The location was perfect and the home had everything we needed. We especially loved all the puzzles and games that the home had 🤓 it is a great home to share with multiple families due to the layout/ each room has their home own bathroom.

We loved this place! It’s huge, stunning, spotless and very well equipped. The location is so convenient for the Kohala beaches, groceries and shops. And the beach club access is AMAZING! The snorkeling, restaurant and facilities there are terrific. Smooth communication too. Highly recommended for sure.

We were traveling with our 3 teenage grandsons and it was wonderful for them to have the downstairs at times and us to be upstairs. They LOVED the workout/gym area and used it every night. Great to have such beautiful bathrooms! Laura Lee was so nice to communicate with at any time. Mahalo! Laurel

Wow is all I can say!. I have been to many beaches in the Hawaiin Islands and the private beach is the most family friendly beach I have ever been to. The property is located in a quiet gated community. We really liked the feeling of being away from crowds. If you want to experience a slice of Hawaii this is the place to bring your family.

The home was very nice. Communication with owner excellent. Pool close by as well as coffee shop!
Small negatives - ice maker did not work, upstairs was difficult to cool down and most of the scheduled activities were only in Kona, A bit of a drive.

Group of us stayed here for the Honu Half Ironman. The house is beautiful & was clean upon our arrival. Laura and Ray are great and responsive hosts and unfortunately had to deal with multiple maintenance issues during our stay. The AC unit was not working efficiently upon our arrival and the hosts dropped down the temp virtually. Couple days later the AC unit fully stopped working and a service man had to come the following day during our dinner to fix it. Unfortunately this was a temporary fix as the AC unit broke again a day and a half later. During our 12 day stay we had 4 service calls to our property. We had requested a partial refund for the stay which the hosts denied but offered a discount on future stays. Unfortunately we have no plans on returning to the Island as a group. Laura and Ray were great and responsive throughout the issues but disappointing on their refund stance as we didn't receive the comfort and amenities that we paid for. Lesson learned to all is if you have any issues or troubles with your stay, make VRBO aware right away to start a ticket as doing it directly with the host after the fact won't work.

We really enjoyed this property, the hosts do a great job of having all the amenities you could ever need for your stay include everything you may need to cook at home. Top of the line appliances, bikes and beach equipment were nice but really the private beach has chairs for guests to use if arrive early can use the cabana’s. There is a black sand beach nearby as well, again limited parking arrive early. Snorkeling off both beaches was fabulous enjoyed it as much as at Captain Cook. Communication with the host was amazing she was very quick to get back to us with any questions we had. The location here was great for us and do plan on returning thank you so much.

The house is in a wonderful location. The host was very attractive. Anything needed they were on it. Walking distance to beaches, pool, exercise room, store, and golf. Beautiful home. Will stay again.
