1 Mile to Magic Sands Beach: Kailua-Kona Cottage

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (61)
"The perfect setting for a Kona Side stay! April, your host, is fantastic and this was the most well appointed vacation rental we've ever stayed at, she thought of everything. The sitting area is private, facing the undeveloped island flora, perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktail. A few short blocks and your at Magic Beach, and walking either way from there is more beaches in short distance. We could not recommend this rental more!"

Stunning, Romantic Cottage on Slope of Hualalai

"The cottage was beautiful, very nicely decorated, and well supplied with everything. Gale was a wonderful host, with lots of helpful suggestions and advice, and interesting local lore as well. We loved the location especially - close to Kailua Kona, but out in the country too! The little road the cottage is on was perfect for daily walks. "

Craftsman Cottage on 6 forested acres

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (80)
"Absolutely OUTSTANDING in all respects! The property is lovely in the cloud forest. The house is extremely clean and well maintained, especially for the environment. Kathryn was excellent and brought fresh eggs for us to enjoy. That being said; first night - Coqui Frogs were a bit hard to handle. Wife was ready to pull a "My Cousin Vinny", except we didn't have a hand gun. By the last night she was actually in love with the forest sounds and misses them at night. We truly hope we are blessed...

"Loved everything about this place! The location is great. We walked across the street to watch the sunset every evening, always a stunning show. The house was easy to live in, equipped with everything we needed. We spent a lot of time on the lanai which looks toward the ocean. There’s beach equipment, and the beaches are a very short drive from the house. There’s also a park at the end of the street where you can get in the water if you’re on the more adventurous side.

BIG ISLAND BLUE MAKAI, Oceanfront 2BR in Puako! Beautiful sunsets in paradise

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (63)
"We stayed over Christmas break 2024. We arrived and immediately checked out the beach. Saw the tide pools and turtles right away. We were sold. The water was not too rough because of the coral reef break. We usually stay on North shore of Oahu and water is not conducive to all ages and skill levels. This beach accommodated our youngest (9 yr old) to our oldest (70 yr old) and us in between, too!Turtles everyday, fish everyday, an eel on occasion… and whales almost everyday. The beds were...
