Kitchen was amazingly stocked!! Plenty of cookware, serving items, and dishes to host the 10 adults staying with us. And the extra refrigerator was a must for a large group. The A/C units in each room worked wonderfully and made quick work of the humidity so sleeping was very comfortable. Property managers answered my calls and questions! Very positive interactions with them. The concierge lined up a fantastic zip lining experience for our entire group. The ONLY improvement we could suggest is for the hot tub the be able to be heated up and used in the morning. The golfers in our group would have appreciated that.I don’t think I could have found a more perfect house for our group! Loved every minute!

Beautiful House

The house and grounds were beautiful. I wish we could have stayed longer. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom, which is wonderful when you're traveling with 9 people! The view was amazing. We loved the pool and hot tub. We would definitely stay here again!!

The house is as described, which isn't always the case with vacation rentals. This house was perfect for multiple couples and extended family. 10 of us (4 generations) stayed for a week and the house was very well designed to allow everyone their own space when needed, but had enough room for everyone to gather for meals prepared in the very well stocked kitchen. Cooking was made very easy compared to other places we've stayed. All the adults commented on how well the house was setup. The host was also very responsive to questions and easy to work with.

Awesome stay

Great location to Kona. House was lovely. Plenty of room for people to socialize or have time to themselves. Kitchen is well stocked and we found the layout easy for several people to be working in the kitchen at once. While not really a complaint, one thing that might be a nice improvement would be cushions on the lounge chairs by the pool. We totally enjoyed our stay and would certainly come back to this house.

The house and property were in excellent condition. we were impressed with the initial supplies provided and with the dishes and cookware. The pool and hot Tub were well maintained. The sunset views were spectacular. The location was just a short drive to groceries and necessities. Kona Coast Vacations and Concierge, David,were excellent in responding to any of our questions.

Family Christmas Vacation

We had a wonderful time in Kona for our family vacation! We had 8 adults (2 parents 6 grown kids), rooms worked out well with 5 bdrm 5 bathrooms :). The hot tub was great for the evenings after a day of activities. Great location, easy to get to beaches to snorkel and relax. We rented 2 cars, parking was safe and easy. New Grill was wonderful! Well stocked kitchen for cooking and serving meals.

Beautiful Sunsets and Lot's of space

We stayed here with 9 people and had plenty of room for everyone. The pool and spa were wonderful and the sunsets from the patio and balcony were a delight every night. The house is well stocked for those who, like us, cooked most of our meals. The location is a short 5 minute drive to the farmer's market and downtown shopping. Major retail stores like costco, walmart, and safeway were only 10 minutes away. Overall it was a fantastic place for a family vacation on a semi-private drive with little traffic.

Kona vacation

We were very happy with how well the house was stocked, especially the kitchen. It easily accommodated our group of 10 and everyone having their own ensuite bath was such a bonus. Used the pool and hot tub daily and enjoyed being able to relax there after a day of hiking and exploring. Location was very convenient for shopping. Would happily rent here again!

Perfect Rental for family

The house had everything we needed for our stay with 7 guests. It was in the perfect location, convenient to stores, restaurants and the airport. The neighborhood and view were incredible. David our concierge was amazing! We were able to book several activities and he helped us rebook two things last minute after one place canceled. Everyone was very pleased and we would stay again.

The home was perfect for our week stay in Kona! The house was clean & spacious. The pool, view from the pool and location close in to Kona was also perfect. The kitchen and bar area was well stocked with all the essentials including glassware and plastic poolside dishware. Beds and linens were comfortable.

Location is nice for everything on the Kona side (beaches, town, marina), but it is a hike to get to black sand beach, volcanoes NP and Hilo from here. Loved every minute- would highly recommend.

The house was perfect for our large family. Everyone had their own space and the backyard was a perfect setting for family gatherings. We loved watching the sunset from the Lanai and the big table in the dining room was awesome for the 9 of us to have family meals. Kona coast was extremely responsive and helpful during our stay.
