Wonderful Vacation House - Amazing views

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: We absolutely loved our stay at Hale Moana. Everything about the property felt thoughtfully designed and exceptionally well cared for. The views alone were incredible, but it was the small details that really set this place apart—labeled drawers and cabinets made it easy to find everything, and the abundance of nightlights was such a practical and appreciated touch.The home was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. The pantry was spacious and well-equipped with appliances, and there were plenty of extras for fun and relaxation—puzzles, games, pool toys, beach towels, and even snorkeling gear like masks, snorkels, fins, and boogie boards.It truly felt like a home away from home, and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Wonderful place for a large family!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We reserved this house for 14 days and it was the perfect place! My in laws stayed the entire trip we stayed for 9 days and my BIL/SIL stayed for a week. One perk of this property is the very private layout for multiple families coming and going. The description states their are multiple bedroom/bathrooms. But it doesn't clearly explain that this is set up like a bed a breakfast with one bedroom/bathroom upstairs in the main house with the kitchen and sitting areas. Then outside in the courtyard are 3 separate almost hotel rooms with their own access to the pool and private bath. We have 4 kids and ended up having them stay in one room and it worked great, but they are younger and with them having to go thru the outdoor courtyard to find an adult in the night did take some getting use to. For the view this house has an INCREDIBLE view! You are right on the ocean and can look down at the bay and the water is so clear you can see the fish swimming! We did the night snorkeling and was easily able to walk right to sea quest from the house which was awesome! Unfortunately we visited during the one week coral spawning that closes the largest and closest beach for our whole trip so the other beaches were terribly packed. It was super convenient to have the shopping center so near by! A full grocery store within 3 minutes. Overall this was an amazing place to stay and I would HIGHLY recommend!

Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review! We’re delighted to hear that the home worked so well for your family gathering and that the unique layout provided the privacy and flexibility needed for multiple generations traveling together. We appreciate your feedback regarding the bedroom configuration and will review our property description to see if we can make that arrangement even clearer for future guests. It sounds like you made the most of the incredible location and oceanfront setting. Being able to watch fish in the bay from the property and walk to your night snorkeling adventure is certainly one of the special experiences this home offers. While we’re sorry the coral spawning event affected beach access during your visit, we’re glad the convenient nearby shopping and other attractions helped make your stay enjoyable. Mahalo for choosing to stay with us and for recommending the property to future travelers. We hope to welcome you and your family back to Kona again soon!

This property was amazing. This large home was perfect for a large family traveling together. Everyone had there own bedroom & private bathroom. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. There are pool toys & plenty of things for the beach....umbrella, chairs, snorkel gear & beach towels. This home is in a great location. It's close to everything which is very convenient for getting groceries, gas & just shopping for fun.Kona Vacation Rentals is The Host & they are excellent with communication. They respond quickly to any questions you might have. There is nothing lacking in this home. And, wait until you see the view!

It’s great to know the spacious layout, and thoughtful extras—like pool toys and beach gear—helped make your trip both comfortable and fun (and we agree the extras are a great touch)..

It will be perfect on your next visit! It was our pleasure to host you, and we look forward to welcoming you back to the Kona Coast for another fabulous island getaway.

Hale Moana Vacation getaway

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: What a perfect spot for a family gathering. Place is well appointed we were able to have dinners inside and outside and it was an easy walk to marina and bay and short drive to a great beach park. Loved everything about the place. Air conditioning made it very comfortable and everyone having a private bathroom was a real plus. The view poolside can't be beat. Plenty of snorkeling gear to use. Lots of kitchen equipment for easy cooking. The housekeeper was amazingly helpful. Can't wait to go back.

Our family of seven had a comfortable stay. The four bedrooms were a great fit and gave everyone their own space and bathrooms. The sunset views from the pool area were beautiful and definitely a highlight.We visit Hawaii every year and aren’t overly picky, but there were a few areas that could be improved. Keyless entry would be much more convenient than keeping track of physical keys for both the main house and the exterior-access bedrooms. More beach chairs would also have been helpful for a larger group wanting to spend the day at the beach together.  The hot water never quite got hot enough, even after we requested that the temperature be adjusted. With the fully open shower in the master bathroom, hotter water would have made a big difference. The BBQ grill was also very dirty and clogged, which caused uneven heating. The hosts did offer to come address it, but we chose not to interrupt our stay and hope it’s resolved for future guests.Overall, the home is spacious and works well for a large family, but it could benefit from some general TLC.
