          • Absolutely Incredible Stay This place is truly out of this world! The house was even more beautiful and impressive in person than it was in the pictures. Everything was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. The check-in and check-out processes were completely seamless, and the location couldn't have been better—close to everything we wanted to see and do in Kona. The property management team was exceptional. They were incredibly attentive, responsive, and accommodating, and they even worked with us to arrange a late checkout, which we really appreciated. We absolutely loved our stay and would 100% recommend this home to anyone visiting Kona. We can't wait to come back!

          • Great place, very quiet and peaceful location.
            Mike M
          • Big beautiful house in a gated community. We used the pool a lot. And we even got pretty good at badminton. We saved a lot of money by shopping at nearby Safeway, Target and Costco. Downtown Kailua is about a 6 minute drive. The price was above our budget, but we’re not sorry about that. The whole family was very comfortable.
