"Our stay at Hale Kai was absolutely incredible. The view of the water is breathtaking, and falling asleep each night to the sound of waves crashing against the shore was like a natural lullaby. The sunsets were truly spectacular—something we looked forward to every evening.One of our favorite parts of the home was the lanai (Hawaiian-style porch). We spent most of our time there when we weren’t out exploring the island. It was covered, which kept us cool and protected from the sun, and the constant ocean breeze made it the perfect place to relax. We even saw dolphins and whales passing by while sitting out there—such an unforgettable experience!The home itself was perfect for our group of six. The rooms were comfortable and well laid out, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We didn’t use the pool much (just dipped our legs in), but it would be a great option on a hotter day.We also enjoyed exploring the coastline right outside the property, and even had the unique experience of getting fresh-caught fish from a nearby neighbor. The house had great extras like beach chairs, which we used for a day trip and kayaks that we didn't get the chance to use.Mike was fantastic—great communication and he gave us excellent tips on what to see and exactly how to get there, which made our trip even better.If we could have stayed longer, we absolutely would have. We will definitely be back if this place is available again!"

"We loved the property grounds. The dogs were so friendly and we enjoyed picking the fresh fruit from the trees!"

"Beautiful property that is well stocked with extras! The house was accurately listed and the views were stunning. Double washer/dryer was very convenient for our group of 9. We stayed during the Kona Low storm. We made the most of it with island activities and this beautiful, spacious rental. We even got in a little pickleball between rainfalls. Guy was very responsive to all our questions before and during our stay. Would definitely recommend this beautiful property!"

"I'm going to be extremely honest. There were things I wanted to let slide but decided shouldn't.Upon arrival we were greeted by Jen who was so drunk she could barely stand couldn't remember where she put our key or how to let us in the house. There was stuff that should have been done but wasn't, the fridge wasn't started and towels were just left in a garbage bag and bottles from drinking were scattered about. In addition to the stove being propane the fridge is also run by propane and because it hadn't been started previously we had to learn how to start it, with some help from Jen. It turned off several times during our stay, even without the propane running out. The tanks used to run all the things are just 20lb tanks like you'd use for a gas grill rather than big ones that should be used to run a house. Only 4 solar panels to run entire house and warnings about electricity usage. We didn't run out, but we did make sure to conserve. Water is not potable. At first we thought this was what offgrid living in HI is like but we stayed in another offgrid home in HI and it was nothing like this. ona storm hit while we were there. The owner should have been responsible and told us the house was not able to handle the storm and had us leave on Thursday before the storm hit. Instead we found out on our own how ill equipped the house was. There was a leak in the ceiling, dripped onto the bed 1st day. Then the rain poured through windows and puddled and dripped throughout home. "

"We had a lovely stay at Myra's blue house. The house was very comfortable. Lovely kitchen that was well stocked. Comfortable rooms. It is actually about an hour to the main visitor center at the National Park. Ocean View had convenient stores, gas, and restaurants. We enjoyed the thai food and grilled local steaks one night."

"This is the perfect place for those who don't want to be around a lot of noisy people. It is a very large home right now the water. The sunsets are spectacular! It was the perfect location to be able to travel to all the renowned beaches (Black Sand, Green Sand, and Pebbles Beach), along with getting to the Volcano National Park within a decent amount of time. The owners are great and very friendly. We are so pleased we got to meet them in person. "

"Ocean was visible. Bathroom is in separate building. Walls are not animal hide but vinyl! Bring drinking water with you, what is available is rain catch with vinyl particles in."

"My family and I loved our stay! Host was very communicative, the property was clean and well taken care of. Good location between things to do on the island. My only suggestion would be to bring ear plugs for the chickens at night . We would 100% stay here again."

"Great communication with host. Fun and unique stay in the yurt. Clean, with comfortable queen bed and good amenities (fridge, microwave, coffee maker). Quiet environment high on the hill. Shower and two toilets within the yurt. One toilet is an incinerator (for going #2), which took a little getting used to, but was easy to use.Highly recommend for younger couples. "
