Spring Break on Kona

We arrived an hour early and cleaners were still there so went to Safeway for groceries. The access code is timed precisely, it did not work at 3 pm, was fine at 4 pm.Beds were good, kitchen well equipped with good selection of appliances, dishes and utensils. We were happy to use coolers, freezer packs, and beach chairs in garage.Ceiling fans were adequate and did not need AC, although they also had numerous fans and a dehumidifier so maybe more of an issue in summer.Roku TV in living room was available.Easy access to marina, shopping and roads.We would rent this property again.

Perfect paradise vacation home

As you walk in, the view is breathtaking..The house was perfect. You can be sitting on the couch or lounging by the pool and always have a beautiful panoramic view. This house also was probably one of the cleanest homes I have ever vacationed in. Plenty of privacy, almost feels like your own oasis in paradise.

Unbelievable spot!

This property is bigger and better than the pictures. Not having A/C was never an issue for us, as the ventilation was great in the house. Incredible views, comfortable beds and a beautifully stocked kitchen. Thank you!!!

November Escape

We really enjoyed our stay, communication with property management was excellent. Although the age of the home showed in some areas it was pretty well-cleaned and no critters! Kitchen is really well appointed. The views were stunning and the pool offered a great space to hangout after the beach to watch the sunsets.

Paradise

We loved the property as it was easy to find and lovely location. Views and sunsets were amazing and made us feel humbled to be in this location. Even when it rained we were able to sit on the upper deck and take in the sights and sounds. Lots of birds singing at night and we would laugh at the clapping palm tree. We will be back.

Spacious house

The house was very clean and spacious - good for a big family or two families. Well appointed kitchen. Deck and pool area were great. Loved the outdoor shower. There are no stores/restaurants within walking distance, but the house isn't a far drive from town.

Perfect home for a perfect vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The view on the back patio provided for the most perfect evenings watching the sunset; and/or viewing it from the swimming pool. The management company was incredibly helpful and professional. We enjoyed our stay in this large home that was well located, comfortable, clean and well maintained. The mango tree out front provided an added yet another bonus to our perfect vacation.

Great House, Great Views

We loved our stay at this house. The house was clean, spacious, and just as advertised. The kitchen was well-equipped with complimentary water and coffee. The beds and furniture were comfortable. There were beach supplies available for a day at the beach. The outdoor deck and unobstructed views of the water were made for morning coffee and meals. We were concerned about there not being air conditioning, but it was not needed even on warm days. We were sad to leave and definitely would come back.

Big Island Experience

Good stay overall. It seems like furniture, especially the couch needs some cleaning, as you can see stains on the edges. The bedsheets did not look like they were washed between visits. Everything else looked clean. The house does get really hot during the day, extending into the night, and the fans are not enough, but this is clearly stated in the description.

Everything we wanted and more!

Absolutely wonderful! If you are looking for a property in the heart of Kona, with easy access to so much going on in the neighborhood and access to get to the highways for day trips...this is the place! But the best part I think was every evening ensuring we are home for the sunset! We were fortunate to have WONDERFUL sunsets, each andevery night we were there. We sat with our cocktails and phones ready....snapping every picture we could. The property is so spacious with an an exceptionally well stocked kitchen. I really could not have asked for a better location to spend my birthday with my amazing friends. Well done Ho'o Maluhia!!

First Island of Three

This was a wonderful place for our extended family of 8. (Nine day stay) The two 5 year olds made good use of the pool daily (if not twice daily) and the adults enjoyed it as well. The kitchen is large and well appointed and great for cooking family meals.( I would recommend the owners provide a few plastic cups/glasses for small hands. Also surprised there was no teakettle or electric teakettle for heating water.) The bonus room was great for the girls arts and crafts as well as the fold our sofa for sleeping. Location was good for getting to most places on the island. It was quite hot while we were there. The many fans made it comfortable during the day but nights were pretty muggy until the early morning. Oh and if your there in late June check the Mango tree in the front yard. Delicious mangos straight off the tree.

Spacious house for a family.

8 family members stayed at the property and we all really enjoyed it. Some reviews stated that the layout was odd but we didn’t get that feeling. Each room has a bathroom (one room has only an outdoor shower and an indoor tub) so we really liked that feature. One thing we noticed was that the QR code (on the door) and departure email I was sent differed in requirements when leaving the property. I didn’t notice the QR code until we were loading the car so we were unable to strip the beds as it said in the QR code. The email for departure didn’t mention it. So, making sure both the QR code and email match would help guests in the future. We had a really good time at this house. We’d stay again.

Very quick response to two problems Fixing bed noise sucessful

Fixing ice maker not so much Ordered new ice maker but not replaced while we were here. Ice from store bag placed in ice bin but cubes too big to fit through the dispenser outlet. Stuck together and froze Part of ice outside the freezer melted onto floor Not a big deal

Lovely place to stay

We had a great visit to Holualoa! The property was just as described in the listing and previous reviews. Check in was easy with a code on the door, and we found the house to be comfortable and well-appointed. PROS: * The view - as pictured, sweeping ocean views from the decks, the pool, and several rooms inside the house * The location - easy to get to downtown Kailua, with lots of restaurants & grocery stores and fairly central to all the other places we wanted to visit on the island. * The space - plenty of room for our family of 5 to spread out * The beds - we all slept very comfortably. The master bedroom mattress was maybe the most comfortable I’ve had at a rental home! * The garage - full use of the garage and garage door opener was a huge plus THE CONS * No air conditioning - this is as advertised, and we were comfortable most of the time, but did have a couple of days and nights that were warm and humid. The many fans were a big help, though. * Master bath layout - The master bath is large with a big shower, two sinks, and a separate toilet area with a door, but privacy is lacking. The space is wide open to the master bedroom, and there’s a window into another room. That window has a shade, but it isn’t a blackout shade, so privacy is limited. * Other layout issues - the lower level bedrooms are the main path to the pool area, one lower level bathroom has a bath but now shower, and the light switches are low and can be difficult to find Overall, a very nice place to stay. We would absolutely go back!
