Michele is a an excellent host, warm, welcoming and fast responding to messages. The home is clean VERY clean and well stocked. The location is excellent for relaxation. With amazing ocean views and sunsets. I loved sleeping to the sound of coqui frogs and waking to the birds singing. Easy drive to volcanoes or down town Kona, right in the middle. I really appreciated location as I was able to spend more time at Two Step or Pebbles beach instead of long drives. We will be back! Mahalo Michele

Hi Robert! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. It is our pleasure to see SO MANY guests over our12 years give us 150 FIVE-STAR rating. We always strive to give our best service and attention to all our travelers. Our home has been loved and cared for over the hundreds of travelers. We had one low rating recently with untruthful remarks, which dismayed and shocked us. But we know that there are so many more wonderful guests, like yourselves, that will appreciate this lovely island experience. Just in the last two weeks, we have upgraded our property with new appliances and refreshed with stylish furnishings. Next time you come, you will have a French press for your coffee and a state of the art pressure cooker. And just in case cooking is not part of your interests, we have new beach supplies and new travel experiences. Please do return. Robert, and you all will receive a 15% discount for your overall stay. All the best, and have a happy summer!

This vacation house is absolutely beautiful. The views from the lanai are unmatched, especially at sunset. We were even able to see humpback whales from the lanai. The only draw back for our group was that there is no air conditioning, only ceiling fans and trade winds. We slept with the screens open to let in the wind. It was nice to hear all the birds and geckos singing 24/7. We enjoyed being a little further from town because it offered a more laid back, quiet environment. Additionally the hosts are very responsive and even provided different ideas on local attractions. We could have stayed on the lanai for days just watching the view! It was beautiful.

Excellent place to stay to enjoy the paradise of Hawaii

Very comfortable, clean and well decorated home. Beautiful views of the ocean. Made our stay so much better having a place to come back and relax. Some of the best snorkeling is within 15-20 minutes.

Dear Thom, Thank you for your review. We are so grateful to have guests such as yourselves. We have been renting for 12 years and have over 100 5-star reviews. Our desire is to make our guests happy. This home is our second home and not really a vacation rental, that is why it shows alot of TLC. We hope you and your family return; our ocean views will be waiting for you all!!

I know I am late thanking you for the very pleasant review, Richard. But I am hoping that you will remember those sunny days in Kona and KONA LEILANI VACATION HOME. We are still dedicating ourselves to keep this home open and wonderful for our travelers. We have just updated the property and acquired new appliances for the cook in you. In case, you are not into the 'kitchen', we have refreshed the interior of our home with new dining set and more. We hope you are well, Richard. We hope you will join us again and when you do , we will provide you 15% discount off your stay. In the meantime, have a great Spring and Summer ahead! ALOHA Michele and Ron

A very relaxing place to stay

The home is very well equipped and exceptionally well decorated with a variety of original artwork. It feels like a home rather than a rental. The on-site (downstairs) caretaker, Vee, is very caring and helpful without being intrusive. This was a very relaxing place to stay.

Paradise Found

Amazing place to stay on the Big Island, set in a veritable Garden of Eden. Beautifully decorated, furnished, and hosted, the house is quiet, with beautiful ocean views and spectacular sunsets. We were lulled to sleep every night by Island breezes and the chirping of tree frogs. We loved every second of our stay and we would love to stay there again. Great location too.

Absolute Paradise!

As amazing as the photos on this listing are, they don't even really do justice to how spectacular it is. The view is as good as you can find anywhere in Hawaii, and we watched sunset every evening from the lanai. Easy access to lots of beaches without ever needing to go into Kona.
