If you’re looking for a home away from home that’s just 10 minutes from the best snorkeling, you have found the place. We were greeted by Tina and Keri with fresh eggs, papayas, avocados and bananas and coffee straight from their land. Everything is authentic, especially the kindness and care they bring, including the best muffins and cake and expert knowledge of where to snorkel. Their library of guidebooks on nature, hiking, and travel were awesome, as well as every possible thing you might need, including coats to use for a trip to the volcano. This area, South Kona, is a special place to relax and enjoy Kona coffee, and adventures with a rainbow of fish. A big Mahalo to Tina and Keri for a trip of a life time.

True Big Island Spirit

We loved this place that is tucked in on the west facing side with coffee, macadamia, avocado trees amongst other beautiful trees and flowers. So convenient to the beaches, snorkeling, volcano park, and not too far to get supplies or great food. Our hosts Tina and Keri were amazing. Fresh baked muffins (delicious), fresh eggs and fruit grown on their property. A perfect home base away from the crowds in Kona. A big thank you to Tina and Keri. Hope to see you again soon . Our granddaughter loved hanging with the cats and chickens every day and chatting up our hosts every morning. Mahalo

Clean, large, beautiful view, kind hosts

This is our second time in Big Island. We knew we want to stay around Captain Cook area because we like to snorkel. We didn’t expect being greeted with the most delicious banana muffins. In addition, Keri and Tina generously share their fruits and eggs from the garden. The animals were all so cute and welcoming (yes including the geckos) - part of the package😊. We had two teen boys with us and the unit are big enough for all of us doing our school and work (at times) at separate spaces. Gratefully yours, CKMW

A wonderful place to stay

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay on the Big Island. Appreciated all the thoughtful things you did, like leaving fresh fruit and delicious homemade muffins for our arrival! What a treat to taste the hand-picked fresh fruits grown on your property. It really made us feel welcome, especially with the late arrival and being pretty hungry after the trip. Nothing like a fresh taste of the island and the sound of the frogs outside, to let you know you've arrived! Plus, great directions, so we were able to find you even in the dark - also love the little lights outside guiding us to your place every time. Your suggestions for where we could find things and looking into the Manta Ray booking on our behalf, really saved us time and made our holiday so much more enjoyable. Loved the binder that you put together with restaurant and beach suggestions. Thank you for being great hosts and making our visit fantastic!

Friendly, beautiful, serene

Owners welcome is incredible. The home and view are very nice and comfy. We didn’t use the outdoor hot cooking facilities, but had everything we needed for our brief stay. Surprise of homemade muffins, fruit and coffee breakfast was delightful! We were close to amazing snorkeling, and easy access to Kona if/when we wanted. We spent three nights in the Lanai accommodation. - perfect for two. We would definitely book again.

The location of this place makes it a really nice spot to relax at the end of your daily activities. We stayed there 2 weeks. We went to many beaches, the volcano, the Mauna Kea Summit and we played golf a lot. We enjoyed coming back before the sunset and relax outside on the lanai and admiring the view. 5 stars says it all !!!

Our second visit to South Kona Hideaway!

A wonderful place to stay! This is our second visit, and it was just as good as we remembered! Tina and Keri have thought of everything you might need and provided it for your use. Immaculately clean, charming and cozy, and the sleep number beds are so comfortable! We got special enjoyment from the chickens strutting around the property and from one of the cats who seemed to know that our long stay had us missing our cats at home. The proximity to Two Step, where you can find some of the island's best snorkeling make this location, nestled among the fruit and coffee trees, just perfect! We'll be back!

Paradise Retreat - South Kona

South Kona Hideaway is truly a paradise retreat. From the start, we were greeted with the most delicious homemade muffins and a fruit plate picked fresh from the surrounding garden. The lanai apartment was spacious, bright, and thoughtfully filled with amenities. Our hosts truly made us feel the Ohana spirit. It was here that we could lounge on the deck, facing the ocean sunset, and not regret skipping a day of tourist sites. Situated in the Captain Cook coffee coast region, it’s close enough to the town attractions & beaches, and far enough to embrace the quiet and friendly neighborhood. And as much as we want to keep this gem our secret, we can’t help but rave about our stay and how much we look forward to returning.

Captain Cook B&B

We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at the South Kona Hideaway in Captain Cook. The place had everything we needed and Tina was happy to chat with us. Our boys loved the beautiful fruit trays she made every morning and we enjoyed the muffins too. From this B&B we snorkeled and kayaked at the monument, went to the green sand beach, enjoyed hidden beaches and the Place of Refuge.. and ate. We love a stop at Monago hotel for home cooking. Annie's had great beer, fries, and onion rings, and we also had a nice dinner at Bianni's up the road towards Kona. I would recommend this place to couples or families with older children. You are in someone's house- so all parents know what that is like. Kids seem 10 times louder than usual.

Tina and Kerri were fantastic hostesses. They treated us with fresh fruit, and even fresh eggs from their own chickens, besides welcoming us with fresh baked muffins and a fruit plate to die for. The bedroom was quite small, but a sleep number mattress and an adequate closet made very comfortable. I could not check “quiet” because of the loud frog concert every night, but it was a natural sound easily muffled with ear plugs if one chose to do so. Otherwise, the area was very charming and quiet. We loved interacting with their many pets, that were never a nuisance, and enjoyed the landscape around their house, and the daily exchanges about eateries and beaches.

Wonderful stay

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our South Kona Hideaway experience. The spacious lanai offered a fabulous view. No traffic sounds - only birds and nighttime coqui frogs. The Lanai unit was clean, well equipped and roomy. I enjoyed preparing meals at the outdoor kitchen! So great! The muffins, fresh fruit on arrival and fresh chicken eggs were a bonus. As were the resident kitties - we miss Ditto! Also, we were grateful for all the beach/snorkeling equipment that was available for use. Nothing was lacking! Thank you, Tina, for being an attentive hostess and for being around to answer our questions and to enquire about our day’s activities.
