We absolutely loved our stay at the Aloha House. From kayaking with dolphins in the bay to watching sunsets on the point to being just minutes from our favorite snorkel spot, it was the perfect home base for our adventures.

We loved everything about the house! We spent most of our time on the spacious lanai -- beautiful place to relax as the sun came up, enjoying an afternoon break, chilling before bed. Kitchen is well equipped and great for cooking at home. Seems like such a nice community. Very quick walk to the fabulous beach park. Would love to live here!

Great accommodations

Clean and well stocked with necessary items. If you have travelers who have trouble sleeping with outside noises due to the koki frogs and early morning chickens you should plan to have access to a white noise app on your phone. It really helped. Altogether a great place to stay.

Peaceful vacation in a beautiful setting

The six of us enjoyed the peaceful setting of the Aloha House very much. The close proximity to Manini Beach and to 2-step Beach allowed several members of our group to remain in the area and soak in the beauty of the area. Wendy was great! She solved any issue that popped up with a big smile and competence. Thank you for providing us with such a beautiful home to stay in.

Jungle By The Sea

We stayed 6 nights and found the house exactly as listed. There are 3 access points to the beach, all within a block of the front door. The house had plenty of space for our family of 4. The lanai was divine in the mornings and evenings to enjoy the tropical foliage and sounds of nature. We even liked hearing the frogs, which are shockingly loud and something we do not experience often.

Absolute paradise

This was I think our favourite trip maybe ever?! Lovely house with the most perfect lanai, 2 minute walk from one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. At night, you’re lulled to sleep by tree frogs and crashing waves. Buy some freshly picked papayas at the fruit stand right by the beach. 10-15 minute breathtaking drive into town for grocery stores and restaurants. House has everything you could possibly need including snorkel equipment and beach chairs and such welcoming vibes. We didn’t want to leave and are already saving up for our next visit! Thank you Beth and Wendy for such a special stay!

Beautifully appointed home

The home was better than anticipated and has nearly everything you need for your stay. Instructions are clear, the communication with owners excellent. It was just a delightful space to be. A bit of a drive out for supplies so planning meals and stocking up helps a lot. On long days adventuring around the Island we just ate out, but we had supplies for breakfasts and snacking and a couple dinners we prepared at the house. A minute away is a little park with a sandy entrance into the bay for some really delightful snorkeling. Just a great time there...

Coming back.

The Aloha house was very nice and the location was perfect. The kitchen was well equipped and Wendy kindly left some supplies for us. Wendy was very helpful and kind and we could contact her very easily (reply within half an hour). Would recommend to anyone and we will be returning if we stay in Captain Cook again! This was our second stay at the Aloha house it just gets better every time we return. Thank you Beth and Wendy your are the greatest.

What a lovely gift

This home is exactly what you need if you truly want to share Aloha with your family. A spacious, clean home with ALL the amenities. An out door living room. An outdoor shower(with two indoor ones). The sound of the waves. The sunset thru the trees. An orange and lime tree in the yard for juice. Two SWEET neighboring beaches to in JOY. Comfortable beds. This was the most wonderful place for an Hawaiian Christmas with a family of 5. Wendy and Beth were professional and attentive. This place is a GIFT, true ALOHA. Mahalo Nui Loa

We had a great stay! We enjoyed the boogie boards and snorkeling gear! The house had everything we needed. Our only issue, was at no fault to the rental, but there was a neighborhood rooster that started crowing between 3 to 4 am and didn’t stop until it got dark. So, there was no sleeping in.

Location is ideal for snorkeling and exploring Manini beach and Captain Cools Cove. Also closer to Kilauea volcano than Kona. 20-25 min drive to down town Kona. More tropical than the north end (Wiakoloa and Hapuna) with more bird and frog sounds at night.
