One of the best stays we've ever had. The house is so perfectly situated, there are breathtaking views from every room.
When you are in the pool it feels like you are floating somewhere between sea and sky.
The house far exceeded our expectations. It's large, and every bedroom feels private. The beds are comfortable, and the linens were wonderful. Every amenity you could want or think of has been provided, and there were even sweet welcome treats for us.
Communication was easy and fast. There is a handy guide for the house and nearby places to go. The landscaping is beautiful, and the decor in the house is so fun!
My favorite thing was having coffee outside by the pool every morning while watching tiny tropical birds come down and play in the water at the pool's edge.
Every view has a spot to relax and take it in, Sunset by the front of the house fire pit, sunrise by the pool, ocean views from the hot tub. The house is so nice we didn't want to leave it!
Will absolutely book this house again during whale migration season or any other time of year, it's 100% worth it! It made our stay on the Big Island amazing! Thank you to the hosts for creating such a welcoming home and sharing it with others!

This was our second stay in this fabulous home with its incredible views, and it did not disappoint at all! The home is perched above the Kohala Coastline; close enough that you can not only see but can also hear the whales frolicking in the water below the house. It is AMAZING to sit out on the lanai for hours at a time and watch the whales breaching and fin slapping; tail slapping and breaching some more. On one particular day, we counter OVER 20 whales AT ONE TIME playing in the ocean in our line of sight. There are no words to describe how that felt. Breathtaking is probably the closest I could come to a fitting adjective.
The house itself is lovely; just lovely! The beds and couches are extremely comfortable and the home is beautifully decorated with a cozy Hawaiian feel. The kitchen is very well-stocked with all the accouterments one could desire, although with so many excellent restaurants nearby, we never cooked dinner at home. The property is conveniently located to almost all of the resorts on the Gold Coast of the Big Island, and decent shopping can be found nearby at the Queens and Kings Shopping Centers. The nearest grocery store is 30 minutes away in Waimea, but there are also plenty of grocery stores in Kona and one in Waikoloa Village; both towns are just a little bit out of the way if one wants to stop and pick up groceries on their way from the airport.
Sophie, the Property Manager, is a true gem; very responsive and an absolute pleasure to deal with.

We all loved our vacation stay! The views of the Whales and sunset were spectacular every day. The location was far enough North to take us out of any resort traffic and kept us in a relaxing quiet neighborhood overlooking the ocean. There were numerous pool and beach toys for the children and we felt comfortable throughout the home.
Enjoyed all aspects of the property.

This house has everything and more. The host thought of everything. Literally everything. Baskets of toiletries in every bathroom, workout items if that’s your thing. Music area, computer, the list goes on. The house is beautiful in an area that is quiet and alluded and close enough that the resort area is a quick drive. And don’t get me started on the whales. It was our own private sea world show all day every day. Amazing and we definitely hope to be back!

This home is beyond beautiful - perfect location, view was incredible, house had everything we needed and more. The views from all the rooms could not have been better. We saw whales everyday of our stay - so cool. Very quiet and friendly community. We did the fishing boat one day and it was fantastic - great crew and my son caught a huge fish. We will definitely be coming back!

We absolutely loved our stay. We spent 10 days on the Big Island and had a blast. This was our third VRBO in the area and this was by far our favorite home.
The home is well appointed with anything you might need. Beach towels, beach chairs, pool floats, snorkle gear, etc. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with anything you might need. There’s a brand new grill out back. The sonos sound system and tv’s theoughout were great. 6:00am college football from the hot tub was a great way to start the day.
The house has incredible views all around. Wonderful sunsets. Great views of Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai.
The home is in a great area in North Kohala. Quiet and chill with lots of activities nearby. We’ve already re-booked for next year. A 10 out of 10 no doubt.

I can’t properly express how much we loved this vacation and this amazing property! The views will take your breath away from every room and from the beautiful outdoor spaces. The house is thoughtfully maintained and exactly as described. There was plenty of room for our family of five. We all hope to be back soon!

This house is everything and more! The trip was an annual vacation that I take with my two adult sons (ages 27 and 30). We have stayed in many VRBO homes. This one is spectacular!!
We thoroughly enjoyed this home’s many amenities. Beds and rooms were comfy and spacious. The setting was gorgeous from the interior design to the landscaping and infinity pool area. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed the fruit basket. We appreciated the products they provided for us in the bathrooms too!
The home is located conveniently to excellent dining and is in a gated community which made us feel quite safe. On arrival, Sophie greeted us with great tips for fun activities. Thank you, Sophie!!
We all wished we could stay for a month in this relaxing and beautiful home!! I would definitely return.
