Piece of paradise

The property was beautiful, the gardens were lovely, fruit, trees, flowers everywhere. Swimming pool, very nice and clean, solar heated, Jacuzzi could use a little cleanup or at least some bromine to keep it clean while visiting. Plenty of amenities, we will go back.

Family

We had a fabulous time! The layout of the house was perfect for our family. We enjoyed walking around the property identifying all the plants. But the view was phenomenal, gorgeous sunsets and on the few clear nights we had, the stargazing was out of this world. I would definitely recommend this property and can’t wait to get back.

Best House on the Island

We loved our second stay here! The setup and location of this home is perfect. We had three couples and the separate bedrooms work perfectly and the shared space was great, but our favorite part is the view and outdoor area - it’s such a perfect place to sit and enjoy. We plan on coming back again because we love this place so much!

Great location and the view is spectacular. Nice pool and hot tub. What fell short was the lack of up keep on the property. When we arrived, the toilet seat in the master bedroom was broken and the toilet paper holder was off the wall. The property manager arrived to fix the toilet seat. He brought a round seat rather than an oval that didn’t fit the toilet, which remained the full 10 days we were there. The coffee pot didn’t work and it was two days before we got a new one. The TV didn’t work so again the property manager came put new batteries in the remote and was able to get it turned on. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t change channels, and they couldn’t turn it off without unplugging it. He said he couldn’t fix it because he didn’t know anything about TVs. The printed material and check in information said that the swimming pool was heated to 88 with solar panels. Again, the property manager that came out said the pool is not heated never has been and we saw no evidence of solar paneld or 88 There were solar panels that were for hot water but the first few days we were there it was overcast and we were only able to get one hot shower one day everyone else had cold showers. Had we known there was no back up for the hot water we would’ve managed our time and activities differently. This property has great potential and some wonderful amenities. It just needs some TLC.

Great place for our family of four. The view cannot be beat and the layout of the house was very fun — everyone had a lot of privacy and space. Well stocked with beach equipment and pool toys. Only a short drive to great snorkeling, good restaurants and lots of shops. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Beautiful property + accommodations

This is the second time we have stayed at the "Hideaway". It is a beautiful property. Very private and peaceful. There are 3 bedrooms detached from the main living area -- they provide privacy for everyone. The main living area is extremely comfortable. A decent kitchen, excellent BBQ and a beautiful deck/patio with a heated pool and hot tub. The views from the patio/deck and sunsets were spectacular. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it.

amazing stay

Our family couldn't have had better accommodations on the Big Island; the property was peaceful, beautiful, and very comfortable for our family. The sunsets can't be beat. Our kids enjoyed the pool and loved learning about the fruit trees around the property. The rooms/kitchen were very clean and well stocked. We definitely hope to stay again on future visits to Kona, it made for a fantastic get-away.

Great place for family vacation

This property was a good fit for our 3-generation holiday vacation. Each couple had their own bedroom with bathroom. The pool and hot tub were used almost each evening as we returned from sightseeing and touring the island. The location was a good midpoint for accessing many of the island attractions. Our only concern was the cleanliness of the home could have been better. The tile floors were dirty. I spilled water when filling ice trays and when I wiped it up with a paper towel it came up a dirty brown. We also noticed glasses in the cupboards were dusty/dirty and required washing prior to using. There appeared to be mold along the rim of the washing machine door. But overall, this home was a great fit for us and we enjoyed it immensely. I would definitely recommend to others.

Great little hideaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the house. It was nice having separate rooms connected by a central courtyard - it certainly does not have a conventional layout and helped to make us feel like we were on vacation. All the amenities were there and the open layout helped accomodate everyone's different schedules. The fruit trees and gardens were marvelous and there was something magical about being able to eat papaya and limes harvested 5 minutes prior.

New Year's at the Hideaway

I recently stayed over New Year's with my husband, son and parents. We really enjoyed the view from the hideaway and family dinners on the lanai. The kitchen was well equipped. Stunning views of New Year's Eve fireworks all along the coast from the 800' elevation. We loved enjoying fresh fruit from the fruit trees and the property manager was very responsive to questions. We would stay at the Hideaway again!

About the host

Hosted by DM Shroyer is Agent for the Owner, J Carder

Host profile image
We live in Portland, Oregon most of the year, but love to escape to Kona during the mainland rainy season! We purchased this property as it spoke to our romantic nature...

Why they chose this property

We chose this property for it's tranquil setting, view and climate - which is awesome at this elevation. Though our renovation of the house(s) is well-appointed and modern, the surrounding neighborhood has a laid-back feel, with coffee growers on the hill, even a chocolate 'factory' nearby. And, if you get your fill of peace and relaxation, 'Civilization' is only a few minutes away...

What makes this property unique

The Hideaway offers plenty of privacy, while still close and convenient to all amenities. Some of our guests compare it to staying at their own private spa!

The main house (with it's 3 separate 'cabanas' - each with it's own full bed & bath), surround a beautifully attended courtyard. On the surrounding grounds, we encourage our guests to explore the variety of lush foliage, flowers and trees. Also, retrieve fresh, ripe papaya, lime, and other fruits for a delicious tropical breakfast!

If you enjoyed the movie, 'Enchanted April', we think you'll love the Hideaway...
