Peaceful Haven: Oceanfront Views - Steps from Pebble Beach~

Our home is steps from Pebble Beach which provides great access to snorkeling, hiking and is perfectly located to explore the Big Island of Hawaii. You will have exclusive use of a 3 bedroom, 2 full bath, 2 car garage house in the Kona Paradise Subdivision, 25 miles south of Kona. The home is located at the bottom of Kaohe Road, 150 yards from Pebble Beach. It is an easy, non-exerting walk (both directions) to your own private, community beach.

You can hear the whales calling (in season) and the waves cascading onto the pebble shore. We have splendid views of the ocean and the mountains from the house and lanai.

Our expansive wrap-around lanai is the perfect place to enjoy the cool ocean breeze, sip a delicious cup of Kona or Kau coffee, check your email and eat a delicious papaya after awaking to the birds chirping and the beautiful hillside beckoning a morning hike. This is paradise!

Our 2-story home is clean and spacious with an open floor plan. It is three bedrooms, two baths with the living room, dining room, lanai, and kitchen on the upper floor and the garage below. The spacious master bedroom has its own sliding door onto the lanai, a plush pillow-top king size bed, walk-in closet, en-suite bathroom, and full wall of windows facing the southern view and lanai. The house has been professionally furnished from the Stanley Coastal Living Resort Collection, Pottery Barn & Pottery Barn Kids. The sunlit guest bedroom features a pillow-top queen bed and shares a full bathroom with the third bedroom, containing two twin beds. All bedrooms, the living room and lanai have ceiling fans. The house is not air-conditioned; however, all windows are screened, there are two sliding doors onto the lanai, and plenty of ocean and mountain breezes. The expansive covered lanai (15' x 30') is easily accessed off of the living room and the master suite. You will find fantastic views and an enjoyable patio dining table and chairs to enjoy quiet mornings or sunset dinners. A new Weber grill is available for your use in the garage.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, silverware, cooking utensils, blender, coffee maker, coffee grinder, toaster, hot water kettle, rice cooker, waffle maker and baking pans. The house is on a water catchment system. Please read “rules and policies” for more information.

We are located 25 miles south of Kona and 32 miles south of the airport, off of Highway 11. It is a beautiful, lush and scenic drive past quaint towns and coffee farms. Pebble Beach is a tiny walk from our door. It is a private community, small black pebble beach that offers hiking trail access, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding and diving access. We are also close to Ho'okeena Beach, Pu-uhonua o Honaunau (aka Place of Refuge) and fantastic Two Steps (Snorkeling), The Painted Church, and Kealakekua Bay (Capt Cook Monument). Volcano National Park is 70 miles to the south with great hiking and views.

You will love it here. Come enjoy the paradise!

The location is far enough away from the resort type stuff and perfect for a relaxing get away. We recommend Minehune coffee, and Da Poke Shack, South Kona Fruit Stand was amazing as well. We saw amazing sunsets right off the deck of the house!

Big Island stay
This property is great. The walk to the beach is short and pleasant. It was a perfect home base for our exploration of this island. Because of the water retention system, you will be asked to take very short showers and will not be able to use the laundry. But we adapted quickly and enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful times in the style of Hawaii of days gone by!
Kona is the perfect place to enjoy Hawaii the way it should be! Still a bit rustic and full of locals. (Not overran with resorts and tons of people all on top of each other.)The beach is a short walk away and the owner is available via the phone if any needs arise! We had a great time!

Unbeatable views
This is a great property. The location is amazing given that you know what to expect. Located in the Captain Cook area, it wont be the closest if you want to golf or do other similar activities every day. However, you get such an amazing & quiet experience. If you want a beach to swim with barely anyone around, great hikes nearby, coffee farms and the Volcano Park closer than if you stayed around Kona, this might be the place for you.

Great home, we had a wonderful time
We had a great stay. The house is spacious and we loved sitting outside on the lenai! The house was spotless and the kitchen was so well stocked even with our favorite spices . We moved into the house for a week and enjoyed every minute. The bedrooms are spacious and having the garage and washer & dryer was so nice. The house is so light with all the windows showing the ocean view. Sharyl was quick to respond when we asked a question about parking. We had a wonderful time and we will be back!!

Big island vacation
Nice quite place to stay with great view. We saw whales one morning from the deck. The beach is cool but not not great for swimming. Access to the house is up a steep flight of stairs. Is difficult for the elderly. Need to be aware that there is no trash pick up.

Definitely paradise
We loved our stay here on the Big Island. The views were beyond amazing from the house and on our drives. We were just a short walk away to the shore, and really enjoyed the breathtaking views of the ocean waves. The house was very nice as well. It was very clean. The only things we weren’t prepared for was the steep drive down to the house, not having a/c, and not having a washer/dryer. It was also quite a drive to everything we needed. However, these things did not affect the wonderful time our family had here. We actually learned these things are common on the island. We just want the next traveler to be aware. We highly recommend staying here and enjoying that gorgeous view! And wish we had more time to enjoy this beautiful island! ❤️

This was a nice gem of a stay!
Great place, very accurate description. House was clean and details from the owner was very straightforward and simple. So in terms of the owner and check in, all very excellent. The house has some mosquitos at dusk, so that was annoying but typical in the area. You won’t escape that in any other house! I just noticed they were more than usual than other places we stayed in Captain Cook, Kona, Hilo, etc. The road is also very steep but just fine in any car, but it’s very steep. The best thing about this home was the closeness to Pebble Beach. It has everything. Nice snorkeling, plenty of space. The rocks are not kind to bare feet fyi. Overall this place was excellent and would love to stay again!

Listen to the waves break and see the amazing night sky
I was concerned about the water conservation after reading reviews, but our family of five didn’t have any issues. I didn’t like having to haul away our garbage the last day or that there was no laundry or toiletries provided. The quiet of the neighborhood, after you descend a mile on a very steep grade, makes up for it all. We awoke before 5am each day to enjoy the brilliant stars while hearing the waves break on the rocks. I loved listening to the variety of birds. The house is a little warm for this northern girl, but we spent almost all of our down time on the deck which was great. It’s a good 30 minutes to get to the nearest restaurant, or any civilization, but if you’re looking for quiet and beautiful scenery, this is the place to stay.

A beautiful view, very close to a private beach
We stayed for five days in this very beautiful part of the Big Island. If you're looking for a quiet place to be alone with your thoughts, this is the place for you. The views are impeccable, and the home is spacious, clean, and lovely, but it is isolated and remote. It is far away from most things. It is an hour out of the airport and thirty minutes from the closest supermarket or eating establishment. You would need to rent a car to get here, but be warned, to get to the place, the streets are narrow, and the hills are steep! The car must be put in low gear to go up and down the narrow hill. In addition to that, you must be quiet after nightfall, and they prefer you to turn the lights off for big sky views. The place has a water catchment system, and they require you only take five-minute showers and you're responsible for throwing out your own trash. Despite all these limitations, the overall experience was memorable and we would come back.

A LOVELY HOUSE BUT MAYBE NOT THE BEST HOME??
A lovely home with a great location, amenities and setting. Did not receive check-in instructions until I was in the driveway despite many attempts to get them earlier. Also, our family of 6 was charged $150 for emergency water delivery for supposedly using “thousands” of gallons of water in 4 nights. Owner provides no tangible way to monitor or confirm your actual water usage so proceed at your own risk. We were gone every morning by 10 and back after dark and took a combined total of 14 showers. Nothing says relaxing vacation like being called a liar after taking such extreme measures to conserve water in every way. Proceed at your own risk.

Beautifully maintained home and view. Beach did not seem safe for swimming.
Pros: Sharyl was accessible and helpful with any concerns or questions we had. The home was very well furnished and beautiful. The kitchen had all the supplies you would need. We especially enjoyed the large lanai and outdoor fan for relaxing and eating. It is a very quiet neighborhood. On a beautiful volcano rock hike from the home we saw humpback whales breach for the first time. Amazing! Cons: The curvy road and long drive became a little tiresome if you are sightseeing and going to other beaches north of the home. The actual road to the home is VERY steep and therefore difficult to enjoy a nice morning walk together. Pebble Beach has dangerous tides. My husband, who is good swimmer only tried it once, so we were disappointed to have to drive everyday to get to a swimmable beach. The bathrooms needed a little more thorough cleaning. You could hear neighbors and their dogs out in the morning because it is so quiet and everything travels and without A/C we needed to keep the windows open. I wouldn't bring young kids who make a lot of noise as it might annoy the neighbors.

Peaceful Retreat
Away from the hustle and bustle (some may consider the area a little remote), which is exactly what I was looking for. Home is well appointed to make guests comfortable. Responsive host. I’m a little more acquainted with the area than some guests may be, so I wasn’t caught off guard by the water conservation requests and trash haul-away. Just wanted to mention it for others that may be. I don’t think I noticed any disclaimers when booking. Otherwise, it’s a great remote retreat.
