The pictures of the house are accurate but it’s the views while enjoying the front porch that are so special. The cool breeze in a hot day keeps the temperature comfortable. The entire house is very high end and well stocked for comfort and convenience. We recommend this house for your Hawaii vacation
We had a wonderful time! Nice house with plently of space and close to the water. The ocean sounds lull you to sleep at night! Good communication with the owner. A little pricey.
There is plenty of room in this home. It is probably the best stocked (kitchen spices, cooking needs, medicine cabinet, beach items) VRBO that we have ever booked.It was very clean with large bedrooms and bathrooms. We slept well in the North bedroom; the bed was excellent, nice and firm. We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the lanai. Every day we would walk around the neighborhood; there are hills and level areas and little traffic. Don't plan on getting into the ocean here as it is very rough. Although we enjoyed staying here, we drove out almost everyday to go to the beach or town. This place would be the perfect spot for someone who wants to buy some groceries and escape from the world for awhile.
The two bedrooms are spacious and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and utensils. The lanai was a great place to take meals, especially breakfast. The drive down to the house takes about 15 minutes to go 3.5 miles with 30 switchbacks, so take your time. If you're looking for a place to get away from things, this is the house foryou.
This house is simply amazing. The location may be out of the way for some but that’s what makes it special. It’s off the beaten path, especially with the drive up & down! I cannot say enough about the views, from every window. The house itself was spectacular. I have never stayed in one with a more well stocked kitchen in the way of appliances, pans, and knives that actually had an edge to them! With comfy beds, a roomy walk-in shower, and plenty of seating on the lanai, this is truly a home to enjoy. And don’t worry about the coin operated washer/dryer, you coins are provided!
Great house and amazing location! Love the location as it is by the ocean, super relaxing and quiet…. House has everything you need and well cared for.
Looking forward to the future upgrades!!!!
Visiting with family nearby but was quite disappointed to find there was no spa. This was one of the main reasons I chose this house as I knew my grandaughter would love it & I needed it to help with a recent injury as well…then,told…”there is no spa”.
The house itself is quite lovely & very well equipped with nearly anything you may want. Washer & dryer each take $4 in quarters, but hot has 1st run already loaded & you’ll need quarters after that one.
Quality stay but the missing spa was a definite bummer for us & owner replied “that’s a mistake” nice
Very well equipped house. Given the house is a bit out of the way from restaurants, we were so happy that the house was well outfitted for cooking.The beach towels and equipment were great to borrow as well!
Make sure you rent a vehicle that can handle inclines - a 4x4 would be best!
We would love to stay at this property again!
We were very impressed with how well equipped this house was!! The open Lanai facing the ocean with several seating options was where we enjoyed spending our time.
We greatly enjoyed our three week stay in Aloha Awaits at the Southern Belle of Miloli'i. From the extremely well equipped kitchen to the thrilling views from the porch of daily whale sightings, it was a blissfully, relaxing and beautiful place.
Our host was helpful and responded quickly to any concerns or questions. We would love to return!
Absolutely loved our stay at the Southern Belle of Miloll’i. If you want away from the busyness of Kona to sit back relax and take in the beauty of the Big Island this is the place for you. The home is Fully stocked with everything you need. We enjoyed cooking in the spacious kitchen and sitting on the lanai watching Whales pass almost everyday, some staying for hours with their babies. Location is peaceful about 1hr south of Kona.There is a grocery in Captain Cook on the way or a small one in OceanView about 25 min south. Easy drive to Punalu’u bakery, South Point, Punalu’u “Black Sand” beach (Sea Turtles), Volcano 1.5 hr and Hilo 2hr. The Host Orchid was wonderful with communication, can give lots of tips and checked in during the stay. We have stayed in Miloll’i 3 times and definitely will be back to this home, it was perfect for 2 couples.
