Our spacious, fully furnished, family friendly retreat is located within the prestigious gated subdivision of Kahakai Estates in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island, Hawaii.

The area code for all of Hawaii is (808) What is the time difference from the continental US? Hawaii follows Hawaii Standard Time (GMT-10 hours), which is five hours behind Eastern Standard Time and two hours behind Pacific Standard Time. Hawaii does not observe Daylight Savings Time, so add one extra hour to the time difference during this period (March through November). How far is it from Kona International Airport (KOA) to: Hapuna Beach Park: 30 minutes Hawaii Volcanoes National Park: 2 hours, 15 minutes Historic Kailua Village (Kailua-Kona): 15 minutes Keauhou: 30 minutes Kealakekua Bay: 50 minutes Waimea: 50 minutes Do I need a car to get around the island of Hawaii? We recommend a rental car for flexibility and ease, and we strongly suggest booking before you arrive. All the major rental companies are found on the island of Hawaii. There are also guided and custom tours of every type from bus tours and taxis to private limos. What should I pack on my trip around the island of Hawaii? Pack a light, waterproof jacket for hiking or exploring the tropical rainforests of Hilo and the Hamakua Coast and warmer clothes if you plan to visit the uplands of Waimea and the higher elevations of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. A beach bag containing sunscreen, towels, and swim attire is a useful resource to keep handy at all times. Also bring plenty of water to stay hydrated. How do I see the top sites in my allotted time frame? If you have at least five days we suggest breaking your “drive days” into three separate days with beach days or local sightseeing days in between. For example: Drive Day 1 - make Volcano National Park your destination by way of hwy 11 to the south & stop at all the additional attractions (coffee farms, shops, bakeries, black sand beach, etc) on your way there or on the way back. Drive Day 2 - make Hilo your destination by way of hwy 19 to the north & stop at all the additional attractions (Waimea, Waipio Overlook, Akaka Falls, Botanical Gardens, etc) on your way there and take Saddle Rd. home if you plan on Mauna Kea visitor center by nightfall. Drive Day 3 - make Pololu Valley Lookout your destination by way of hwy 270 up north. Check out attractions along the way & Hawi Artist Village. Return along hwy 250 for elevated views of the beautiful west coast. This is the shortest of the 3 drive days and a nice way to spend your last day to make the most of time between check-out and a late flight. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the mountains - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycles - Bodyboard - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Bicycles - Garden ## Similar properties ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/69000000/68610000/68603100/68603059/4185e68a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Magic Sands Retreat: Remodeled Cottage,Walk to Beach, Incredible Location,AC!

Feb 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 100% Recommended My family and I visited the Island for a week while we visited some family members. Our stay was top notch. The home was very clean and in an amazing location. Just minutes from shops, restaurants, and the ocean. Our kids loved the large back yard where they had the space to run and play in the grass. ##### Jim F. Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Needs a little tlc The house is big, and nice. But it definitely needs a little TLC. Out of the 3 Beach chairs 1 was broken. There were no beach towels available. The hot water leaves a lot to be desired, I don't think any of us ever got a HOT shower! The back patio was dirty, could've at least swept it! No baking pans, only pots and pans. Again, it's a nice property, just needs a little attention. Nothing that would stop me from booking again. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Apr 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family trip The property had a great location and layout, perfect for our group of seven. The owner was very responsive and quickly addressed issues during our stay, such as the washer breaking and drains not draining, which we really appreciated.However, the kitchen isn’t ideal for cooking. While it had some basic tools, the quality was lacking—honestly, a quick trip to the dollar store would have been an upgrade. There were plenty of knives, but none of them were sharp, and the cookware was very minimal. For example, there were no cookie sheets or any pans larger than an 8x8 dish.As for beach gear, there were a couple of beach chairs and a few old mismatched snorkel masks scattered around the property, but not much else to fully support a beach day. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### scott h.

Administrative and logistical details were well outlined in an information binder which made our stay very easy. The house itself is in a very safe and gated community with amazing sunset views around the neighbourhood. Its conveniently located to many tourist attractions including downtown Kona, beaches, coffee farms and the airport. The house is fantastic for large families with its large living room and dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped along with a fantastic barbecue in the back patio. Rooms were very clean and spacious with sufficient storage room for clothes. Beds were very comfortable and the hosts provided brand new linens. Bathrooms were also very clean and towels were provided. The hammock in the front yard is awesome for relaxing in while the back yard is big enough to throw around a frisbee! Would highly recommend for families and/or groups of friends to rent this property while in Kona! Overall it was a neat experience to have stayed in the ilio hale (Hawaiian for “doghouse” - ps. You’ll know what this means when you get there!!). Our family would not hesitate to stay at the ilio hale for our next trip back to Kona. Thanks again for making us feel at home! It made us want to stay in Kona longer! ##### Melissa L.
