Kona Resort CW Sleeps 6
Awesome place and location. Joy was very helpful and quick to respond

Hale To in Kona
Beautiful home in a beautiful location. We very much enjoyed our visit. Thank you

Quiet Paradise on Bay w/Aircon
This house was in a beautiful setting with gorgeous grounds. it was very well maintained and comfortable. The house has lots of basics in the pantry and condiments. We loved watching sunset from the lanai through the trees or walking 50 ft to the Pier for a Bayside view (with dolphins often making an appearance). Excellent snorkeling at nearby Manini Beach Park (some of us jumped in at the Pier, too) and by kayak at the Cook Monument across the Bay, or at 2-Step, a 5 minute drive down the road. The AC was good but not usually necessary with great ventilation and fans. The bugs are definitely hoping for snacks, so vigilance to keep a tidy house is crucial (but this is to be expected and wasn't a problem). Dawn was very responsive to a few small problems, and when we couldn't get the dryer to work she had a neighbor offer his so we could finish in time to check out (the dryer was a smart dryer and it out smarted us). We really appreciated how Dawn responded so quickly and helpfully!

Kona Mansions#301 Top Floor, Corner Unit w/Ocean v
We enjoyed our stay. Close to downtown. Would rent again.

Tropical Oasis Home with Pool and Steps to Beach
We had the dream family trip of a lifetime. The kids loved the pool—morning, noon and evening except when we went off on adventures. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance of a rocky beach. The house was roomy and well stocked with two large, long dining tables, one indoors and the other on an enclosed porch outdoors. Perfect for family dining. Joe and Anna were lovely hosts, pleasant and informative. We’d definitely recommend this home to anyone.

Steps to Beaches, 2 King Suites, Private Pool, AC
We had an absolutely fabulous time in Kona, and Zhe & Sijie’s place was a huge part of it. It made for an amazing home away from home for our two-week stay. The home was exactly as described and as it appeared in the photos - if anything, it was even more perfect in person. Plenty of living space, the kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and lunch at the house each day, and the three bedrooms and bathrooms were a perfect fit for my husband and me, our son and my dad. The elevated deck was perfect for reading in the sun or watching the sunset and then watching the stars come out. The pool is small, but a nice place to relax between activities or at the end of a busy day. The house is also in a very nice neighborhood, very secure and close to a grocery store and quite a few restaurants. Zhe and Sijie were fantastic hosts, super quick to reply to any questions we had, and proactively communicating info about check in and check out. 10/10, highly recommend!!

Oceanfront Home, Kealakekua Bay - Hale Hoʻolana
The house was gorgeous, it matched the pictures and descriptions perfectly. At night it was very peaceful and just the most beautiful views every morning. My wife and I loved that it was so close to the best snorkeling that we've ever done and if you didn't want to do the hike to get to it there's plenty of rentable kayaks nearby. We also managed to see a mama humpback whale and her calf in the bay while we were relaxing on the lanai. Last thing I'll say is that the house was close to alot of local food places that all are highly recommended. When I plan my next trip to the Big Island I will definitely be looking to stay at this house again.

Kona Surf Snorkel Paradise, Beachfront, Hot Tub
The home is wonderfully decorated, comfortable and has stunning views of beach. The floor plan gives great communal space and privacy for quiet times. Well appointed kitchen and great place to grill. Dave was incredibly nice and helpful! Families will love it and we will definitely come back.

Exceptional Oceanview Home - Pool & Stunning View
Had an amazing stay at Lee and Courtney's place. The house was incredible and had everything that my family of five needed (to even include tons of beach/snorkeling gear and beach towels). The house is very convenient to many great beaches and activities on the Kona side of the island. We really enjoyed the lanai and all the amazing outdoor space to include the pool and hot tub. We would definitely stay at this house again if we come back to the Big Island.

Big House with ocean view and private pool in Kona
Chelsea was out of town yet was immediately responsive to messages dealing with a couple of minor glitches; it helped that the owner lives nearby. Place overall was great. Lack of air conditioning (it was not hot, but the upstairs did warm up in the April afternoons) was offset by the private pool, a better way to cool off than by refrigerating the house. Nice layout for two couples, one upstairs with the larger bedroom and large en suite bath, the other downstairs with two smaller bedrooms and a bath, so we each had good private space. Only drawback was the downstairs rooms seemed a bit enclosed, although all had windows. Nice large lanai and the landscaping around the pool made it feel especially private. Be sure to investigate the pantry and shelves before shopping...the place was very well supplied when we arrived. We would definitely stay again if we're in Kona!

New, Stunning, 3 Bedroom Condo; A/C/Pools/ Hottub
Wow, just WOW. This should be at the tops of ANY list! Truly the most enjoyable experience we’ve ever had. These superstar hosts have thought of literally EVERYTHING. Every kitchen appliance, cookware, extra linens, cleaning supplies, working vacuum, pristine bathrooms, ALL the goodies for the beach - 4 new snorkel sets, chairs, carry-all bins (!!!!) for your car, towels, boards, umbrella, pickleball sets, 3 different coolers/go-bags…the list goes on. The home Is immaculate, tastefully (and functionally!) appointed, and you’d be hard-pressed to find a single flaw. Their ‘blueprint’ should be the new standard for vacation rentals! The community was quaint and perfect, nestled right above a beautiful bay, and complete with all you need in multiple pools, outdoor cook areas, etc. I traveled with my two kids and my cousins’ family - 3 adults and 4 kids in all. The 3 bedrooms AND 2 bonus beds in the living room were all very comfortable. I can’t say enough about these hosts!!

HAVEN: Poolside Sanctuary with Heavenly Views
Super peaceful and relaxing! With one of the best views I’ve seen in a long time . Extremely friendly neighborhood. Felt right at home

Walua Oasis 2/2 Private Pool
Our group absolutely loved our stay. The host was extremely responsive and the pictures don't even do the place justice. We loved the view and relaxing by the pool until it was time to hit the beach. The location is ideal; it is not too far from Kona (8 minute drive) but you feel like you're in a jungle oasis.

Ocean, Sunset, Pool, King's Luxury experience
What a fabulous place to stay just outside Kona - we absolutely loved this place (and so did our kids!) Really spacious with huge communal areas - it was great for our group size (4 adults and 3 kids). The pool was a delight, big, clean and with wonderful floats and beach towels. The house was really well equipped and we wanted for nothing (the essence of a truly great holiday rental). Comms from Alexey were super responsive and helpful leading up to and during our stay. The views for sunset were superb and will be a lasting memory of our trip. No concerns whatsoever our side - we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to other guests.

Tropical paradise, heated pool, ocean views, AC
I recently stayed at Justin’s Airbnb in Kona, and it was an amazing experience. From the moment we arrived, Justin was incredibly welcoming, offering great recommendations for local activities and making sure we had everything we needed. The house itself was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, creating a perfect island retreat. One of the highlights was the pool – it was pristine and provided the perfect spot to relax after a day of exploring the island. The outdoor area was fantastic, with plenty of seating, and we enjoyed several evenings watching the sunset from the lanai. The location in Kona was ideal, with easy access to beaches, dining, and shopping, yet the house felt like a private oasis. We felt truly at home during our stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place to unwind. I highly recommend Justin’s place for anyone looking to experience the best of Kona in comfort and style!

Breathtaking Ocean View w/ Private Pool & Hot Tub!
We had an amazing stay here and would definitely come back. It's a beautiful home with lots of amenities. I already miss it!

Brand New Private Home at Waikoloa Beach Resort
The house is amazing and was extremely clean. We appreciated Alan's instructions and notebook. He covered everything so we didn't have to contact him after we arrived. It was very peaceful and a perfect location for our stay on the Big Island. Thank you for sharing your beautiful house with us, Alan!

Oceanfront Puako Paradise - Welcome to Honu Kai
Annie's place is paradise! We loved sitting on the sea wall to watch the sunset, hoping in the water multiple times a day, and waking to the sounds of the surf and the breeze in the palms. The home is perfect for a quiet family get away on the beach!

Amazing Place to Stay on Keauhou Bay! Pool/AC!
My family and I enjoyed our stay at Nikki’s place! Her home has everything you can think of to enjoy your vacation in Kona!

Golf Villas Mauna Lani
This place was awesome. A great place for families. We had 6 adults and one infant and we all had plenty of room. The condo is right across the street from the pool and gym. We rented golf carts to get around the resort and would highly recommend doing this. We did most breakfasts and lunches at the condo with supplies from the grocery store at the shops and also did dinners at the shops as well. Don’t hesitate to rent this unit you will not be disappointed !!!!!!

Oceanfront Kona Beach House
From the moment we arrived, this stunning beachfront house in Hawaii felt like a dream come true. Tucked away on a pristine stretch of ocean, the property offers the perfect balance of comfort and that laid-back island magic. Waking up each morning to the sound of waves was a highlight in itself. The views are simply unreal – endless ocean and vibrant sunsets. Whether you're lounging on the beach chairs, snorkeling at a nearby beach, or watching the stars from the hot tub, every moment feels like a postcard. The house is spacious, airy, and filled with natural light. I really appreciated the fully equipped kitchen with spices and basic cooking necessities. Peng also has a supply of beach supplies including snorkel masks, coolers, beach chairs, umbrella, etc which came in so handy. Such a magical place I hope to come back to someday!

Big Island Koi Hale
Barb’s home is exceptional, especially for a large family/friend’s vacation. The pictures really don’t show the beauty of the spaces! Our group had 7 adults and a toddler and the spaces were varied and perfect for relaxing, swimming, socializing, cooking and sleeping. The location of this amazing house is steps from great snorkeling, fantastic sunsets and incredible outings. The ocean breezes cooled the house at night, and although we did use ceiling fans and room fans, we didn’t need any air conditioning (although there were units in each bedroom). Highlights included the pool which was much bigger than the pictures showed and the back porch with Koi Ponds and waterfalls. We would definitely recommend staying here and our family hopes to come back in the future!

Alii drive ocean house, walk to MAGIC SAND BEACH
We loved it there, super nice hosts! Beautiful views of the ocean right from the patio. Great place to walk down Ali'i drive, and magic sands was super close.
