Beautiful house in Kona Paradise
The property is nice overall. The house is clean. The neighborhood is quiet. The road to and from it to the main road is extremely steep. At night time the heat was unbearable in the bedrooms. The property manager was thoughtful. The noisy frogs and bird was overwhelmed.

Gorgeous Views
The views from the Lanai were absolutely gorgeous. Black Pebble Beach was just down the road to enjoy the sunsets and the sound of the ocean. It was about 45 minutes from Kailua Kona. The drive didn’t bother us as we drove all over the Island anyway. It was nice to go back to a peaceful community after a long day. Kitchen was fully stocked, beach towels, beach chairs, and boogie boards. The house did get hot with no air conditioning but we did open windows and doors after coming back and it seemed to help. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home, We would definitely stay again

Amazing views!!!
Beautiful home and very well appointed. Well stocked kitchen. Comfortable furniture, cozy and comfortable beds. Enjoyed whale watching from the lanai. It is steep coming and going but certainly manageable, glad we had 4 wheel drive. Description says “ steps from the beach” a bit misleading but doable. We loved our stay, were there for a month and would return in a heartbeat! Both the owner and on island manager were available and responsive.

A Great Place to Relax
We rented a car and toured most of the island. Plenty of room for the two of us. We really enjoyed the screened in porch and the sound of birds in the evening. The location is a bit out of the way from any tourist attractions, stores, etc. but we knew that ahead of time.

We had a great time at the house. I would recommend 4wheel drive if you rent a car because the roads are quite steep. This is the price of great views. The house geckos are adorable and we got a lot of good pics. The manager was also kind and responsive.

Island delight
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. The location was perfect, just a very short walk to a beautiful black rock beach and good snorkeling. The house is well-equipped and comfortable. The neighborhood roads are quite steep so we were glad to have a 4wd car. We visited many wonderful parts of the Big Island and even got to see the eruption of a volcano. Each day we were happy to return to the house, sit on the porch and watch glorious sunsets.

We’ve returned for seven years and hope to do so again. Perfect for families and friends who prefer a lovely, cozy home rather than hotels. Close to 5 of our favorite snorkeling beaches. It’s a steep, beautiful drive down to the property.

Enjoyed the well equipped kitchen! Location to beach is perfect. Having a full kitchen and laundry when away for weeks is super helpful. This felt like our home for the week! We enjoyed morning and evenings on the lanai. We Can tell the house was empty for a few weeks, it was dusty and could have used a clean prior to our arrival. Thank you! This big Island is beautiful and we enjoyed our stay, would recommend!

This home is amazing. My husband and I stayed for 7 nights and it was not long enough. There was plenty of room for another couple. You will definitely benefit from a 4x4 staying here as it is right down by the beach and the drive in is steep. The driveway as well. Worth the drive South. This home has everything you could need and more.

We so enjoyed our stay at this home in Kona! Great location for us as we don’t love being in crowded areas/beaches, epic snorkeling at the various beaches near the house, all amenities were present, fantastic view, and a lovely home. We were stoked to be here and soak up with island vines and stunning ocean views.

Kona Paradise
My overall impression of the property is that it is in a great location and the owner is easy to contact and work with. He was quite accommodating in our departure based on a late flight. The house is in dire need of cleaning. It is also in need of new window coverings and some basic TLC. While we definitely enjoyed our stay there are other options in the same sub-division that we have used previously that are maintained better. The cleaning fee was steep for the amount of cleaning we did when we arrived and the house was dirty and needed a deep cleaning.

We had a wonderful week. This is a beautiful home in a nice location off the beaten path. Wonderful views, great beach down the hill from the home, and easy access to many destinations on the island. The house is very comfortable, extremely well-stocked (including with coolers/snorkel and beach gear), and was a perfect place for our family. Would definitely come back -

A quiet retreat away from tourists and total relaxation
The property is perfect for those who want to be away from the tourists and artificiality of resorts. It delivers gorgeous ocean views from the spacious lanai and a home atmosphere that is comfortable and laid back. The property could use a good scrubbing (grimy doors, pillows that need replacing, and kitchen drawers that need cleaning and decluttering.) It involves a lot of driving to get to places like groceries, restaurants, good beaches, cultural sites, and most hiking trails. We were very happy we chose this property, as the experience was what we wanted….the feel of living in Hawaii. Once we embraced that we must drive everywhere, fill jugs of water up the road for drinking and cooking, and we’re responsible to take our garbage to a transfer station, we settled into Hawaiian living quite well. Mahalo for making this experience possible.

Big Island getaway
What a beautiful rental & spot! But be prepared you do have steep drive in/out to get that breathtaking view. Location is pretty isolated with lots of curvy roads which makes it a quiet spot. The big island requires lots of driving both directions to get around to all the cool places so it was convienent enough for us. Loved all the supplies, outdoor/porch space & the beds were actually comfy. It can get a little buggy if you leave lights on & don't shut the screen door well. Also, drinking water is refillable jugs & you haul your own trash to a dump site 10min away. I think these are pretty standard for the area tho. Grocery stores in the area are not great, prob needed to get groceries closer to Kona.

If you are looking for a place to stay outside of the city, this is a lovely option. Host is always quick to respond. The house is well equipped for beach outing supplies. However, be prepared to drive to everything and bring earplugs for the invasive coqui frogs are incredibly loud from 6PM until about midnight.

Well-equipped vacation home
The house is well-equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen, a closet full of movies and board games, and lots of gear for your beach days (chairs, umbrella, cooler, snorkel gear). The location is quite remote and on a steep hill, you need a good car. You cannot walk to anything on foot from the house. The sunsets on the lanai were absolutely stunning. The place was very clean but furnishings and linens are older. Eric was excellent at communicating and was very helpful when we had questions. Mahalo!

We Love This House!!
If you are wanting to be away from the crowds and in a neighborhood setting, this VRBO is the best. Eric, the owner, responds quickly to your needs and questions and the house is clean and simple. The ocean is visible from the lanai. We snorkel everyday and our favorite beaches are near by. Pebble Beach is a short walk from the house. You do need to be willing to drive up a safe but VERY steep and long hill to go in and out. We are thankful that we have been able to stay four different years!!!
