Wonderful home nestled in the hillside. Excellent pool-side sunset view. Loved that the house didn't face the golf course. Appreciated abundance of towels, decently appointed kitchen and comfy furniture. Bedrooms also offered excellent privacy. Fabulous communication from host. Location meant a fair amount of driving for activities and food, but we know this going in and didn't mind. Made a great basecamp for all of our outings. Would definitely stay here again. ##### christina w.

Our stay in late summer 2023 was first-class. The home is beautifully appointed with original art and comfortable furniture. We were greeted with an adorable welcome gift from Donna, the fantastic host. Here’s what I think will be useful to future guests: The central air conditioning worked really well, but the mornings and evenings were cool enough to enjoy fresh air through the enormous sliding screen 'wall' that borders the lanai. The kitchen had everything we needed in terms of pans and tools, and the appliances are all best in class. The amazing shower stall that exits to the private outdoor courtyard feels straight out of Architectural Digest. Practically every light switch has a dimmer, so you can really set the mood. And of course, this home has a wonderful pool and spa. The spa is surprisingly private given the expansive views, and it was unforgettable being in the water under the stars. Other highlights were watching the sun set over the horizon and the backyard’s gorgeous plants. The community was very quiet. There aren’t really any cons, though be aware that the home is in a quiet part of the island. It’s about 40 minutes of highway driving away from Kailua-Kona, the nearest town with the most stuff to do on the island's west side. Fortunately, smaller but cute Waimea is only about 20 minutes away, and has numerous restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Highly recommended! ##### Allen R. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bev S. Apr 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic House in Every Respect! This house is fantastic in every respect. With each bedroom having its own bath, the ratings go even higher. The house is outfitted with just about everything you could possibly want. The kitchen is incredibly well-stocked with ample pots and pans, dishes, silverware, glasses, hand towels, sponges, detergent, cleaners, bowls, storage containers, plastic bags, paper towels, hot pads, appliances, etc. If you needed it, they had it. The bedrooms were spacious, especially the 2 king bedrooms. Those bathrooms were also enormous. The double queen bedroom was large, but had a smaller bathroom with only 1 sink and a smaller toilet/shower area. This was not a problem but is good to know. The living room was large and extremely comfortable, the huge kitchen was well laid- out, and the dining room was convenient with a very big table. A laundry room was handily located just off the kitchen. The washing machine pods and dryer sheets were all provided. The lanai and pool/jacuzzi were magnificent. The lanai was decked out with 6 large chairs around a huge coffee table, with 4 comfy lounge chairs at the pool. The lanai also had a round table for dining next to a built-in barbecue. The backyard had a beautiful ocean view which provided a great spot to watch the beautiful sunsets. Whatever we lacked or needed, the management company was super quick to respond. Our stay was fabulous and this comfortable, beautifully furnished house was a big reason for that. It deserves a 5+ rating. ##### Bev S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Christie M. Nov 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property and fantastic property manager This beautiful home is equipped with everything you need. Every kitchen item you could need is there (and high quality too). (A keurig would be a nice addition - the current single serve coffee maker doesn't fit standard pods.). The pool and hot tub are wonderful and great spots to watch the sunset. The outdoor bbq area is fabulous. Donna is fantastic, super responsive and helpful. Notes about the development where this property is located: Obtaining privileges at the resorts is recommended. There is a nice pool at the close amenity center but the resort access is worth it just to have easy access to Mauna Key and Hapuna beaches. (We saw cars getting turned away often from the public access points because they were full.) The Seaside Tennis Club at the Mauna Key is spectacular. We had a few tee times at the renowned golf course but unfortunately they were cancelled due to the wind. Both resorts are an easy five minute drive away, so a rental car is necessary. Otherwise a 40 minute walk and pedestrians are discouraged. It can be windy. During our 8 day stay no beach umbrellas were allowed. Just something to consider, we're told this is typical for that side of the Big Island. On the flip side, little rain. Lots of options for groceries, all 20+ minutes away. Take half a day and go to the Costco in Kona if you can. Overall a wonderful time and we can't say enough about Donna! ##### Christie M. Stayed 9 nights in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Vinny H.

We had a lovely 8 day stay at this villa and thoroughly enjoyed the pool, view and accommodations. It’s also great to be able to use the two hotels and their beaches just down the hill. Would definitely stay here again! Donna was an excellent host as well! ##### Brian W. Stayed 8 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patricia S.

The property is immaculate. The location is great with several shopping areas within 15 minutes. The lanai and pool make for a perfect gathering spot. This is a must stay property. ##### Michael H.

It is gorgeous, spacious, and a short drive to two of the most beautiful beaches on the island. We took advantage of the resort access and really enjoyed using those facilities. Donna was so easy to work with and made our stay even easier with her quick and helpful communication. We are already talking about booking it again! ##### Jessica B.

When we weren't exploring the beaches or volcanos, I particularly enjoyed reading on the lanai. The house was well equipped with everything we could need - from cooking equipment to home supplies. I'd definitely go back again. ##### Molly B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Courtney B. Mar 2, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Two Family win! We absolutely loved this home! It was perfect for our family (with 2 toddlers) and for our friends (who have 2 teenagers). Everyone had their own space and the location/amenities/views could not be beat! Hoping we can come back and stay again soon!! Thank you for having us! ##### Courtney B.
