Beautiful view

The property has everything needed for a comfortable stay. The steep road and driveway required 4wd but the view was worth it.

Little bit of heaven

This was one of the cutest, most comfortable homes we have ever rented. It was thoughtfully stocked with every thing you could possibly need. The Lanai has the most beautiful view. We have been coming to Kona Paradise for about 15 years and this was one of our most enjoyable stays.

Definitely “A Little Peace of Heaven”!

Our stay was magical! The lanai overlooking the beautiful property and ocean view was spectacular. Snorkeling at the neighborhood black sand beach was not very crowded and so peaceful. We were 45 minutes from Kailua-Kona but totally worth the scenic drive. We’ve already recommended this property to friends who asked for booking details!

An exceptionally quiet and peaceful place to stay away.

If you're looking for a quiet place to stay outside of all the touristy "hubbub" then this is definitely the place to stay. Very quiet neighborhood with friendly next door neighbors. It is a bit of a drive from the main shopping centers so our first stop was COSTCO to load up on groceries at the best price. We spent most of our time visiting Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and local beaches. We felt this vacation home was perfectly placed with those destinations in mind. The owners have truly gone above and beyond with providing so many extras you would not typically have with other rental properties. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked with every cooking appliance you can think of which our family appreciated. There were also boogie boards, various sizes of snorkel gear and fold up lawn chairs that have shoulder straps...perfect for carrying down to the beaches. We enjoyed the amazing ocean views every morning drinking our coffee and found ourselves hurrying back home every evening to catch the sunsets. My only caution is if you are renting a car....don't try parking at the top of the driveway or you will likely drag bottom like we did. Instead park at the bottom by the water tank. There is plenty of room there and it is just a few steps to the front door. If you rent a Jeep then go ahead and park at the top. Our thanks to the owners of this cute little home for sharing it with our family!

We have been to the Big Island several times and this has been one our favorite because of the spectacular view and altitude. We would definitely stay here again.

Sunset views are spectacular!

House is nicely equipped and quite comfortable. The decor is lovely. Proximity to 2-step beach is also very convenient for snorkeling along with many other destinations. Would recommend this piece of Paradise to others.

Great house, beautiful views!

We loved this house. It was our 1st time staying here and it was amazing. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked, the place was clean. and the property manager was responsive and friendly. We loved the quiet little beach in the neighborhood too. We look forward to staying here again soon!!

Beautiful house and property with amazing views.

My family and I enjoyed mornings and evenings on the lanai. It is such a quiet peaceful home that a true rest and relaxation was possible. We will be back and have already recommended it to friends and family. If you love Kona coffee and want to visit all the farms, this is the ideal home. It is far enough from the tourists of Kona but close enough to enjoy the restaurants and shopping in Kona.

Great House and Location

Wonderful house. Very comfortable with a fantastic view. Private beach at bottom of the road (5 minute drive). Neighborhood is friendly. Town is 45 minutes and grocery store is 25 minutes, so do spend some time in the car. But love being here.

Gorgeous and Amazing House/Location!

Title really says it all! It was a gorgeous home with absolutely amazing views! We had a great experience working with the property owner and even had great interactions with those we met in the neighborhood. Only recommendation for those coming to stay is if you get a rental car get something that doesn't sit to low as the drive is indeed very steep but worth the views.

Rural Kona

We were awed by the experience of this property on the side of the mountain, overlooking the expanse of ocean, set in a beautiful Hawaiian jungle of plants. We are veteran VRBO renters and this house was so comfortable and so beautifully decorated. The snorkeling and diving at Pebble Beach at the bottom of the hill was remarkable. The beach was uncrowded with welcoming locals.

Enjoyed our week long stay.

Location is a little out of the way but that's what we wanted. We put 1000 miles on the rental car in a week so make sure you get a car with plenty of allowed mileage and good miles per gallon. The property is nice. Really quiet and private. Great view, comfortable beds, and well equipped. Managers were quick to respond to questions and fix an issue with the drier. Would reccomend staying here to friends and family.

Off the beaten path and worth it!

Property was wonderful, comfortable and the views are top-notch! Terri, the host, was a breeze to deal with and very communicative. We were used to the steep hills up and down to the house from years on the USVI, so no problems there. The neighbors are very nice and the area safe and quiet. I would stay here again and again for the sunsets alone. If you book, you will not be disappointed. Mahalo!

And the house has incredible views just like in the photos. We would stay again in a heartbeat and would HIGHLY recommend to all family and friends who may be travelling to Hawaii.

Beautiful property in a fantastic location.

Lovely property with an incredible sunset view. Great communication and super amenities. Lots of added extras to make your stay even more special. Don’t be put off by the mention of steep hills. Easily negotiated with any vehicle in low gear. I parked by the water tank only 20 yards from the front door. Don’t miss out on this fantastic quiet place.

The pictures don’t do the house justice! It’s got a killer view and you get used to the kind of scary hill coming down. Not scary after the first day.. it has everything you need and then some! Perfect stamp in our honeymoon ❤️

Beautiful setting with all the perfect little touches! My family and I comfortably stayed here for one week and loved every minute of it! Amazing sunsets and sunrises, lovely sounds from the wildlife and ocean, and it was even enjoyable when it rained! Everything is provided and Terri was phenomenal from Starr to finish on service! 5 out of 5 stars and I hope my family and I come back to visit someday!! Mahalo for a memorable home away from home!

The house was such a relaxing place to stay for our first trip to Hawaii! It had the best view of the ocean below with amazing sunsets every night. We truly enjoyed Pebble Beach and the hiking trails nearby. My daughter and her boyfriend cooked for me a few times with the well-stocked kitchen including spices and kitchen items needed to do so, as well as a gas grill. Enjoyed the local flora and fauna, including the cute geckos! Will definitely return in the near future as my retirement is fast approaching and look forward to traveling more. Thanks Terri for being such an excellent host.
