About this property

Don`t miss out on this amazing home for your Kona vacation!

This 3 Bedroom, 2 bath, one level (upstairs) home is about 3 miles south of downtown Kona and just up the hill from some of Kona’s most famous beaches and surf spots. The home is located in a safe neighborhood, perched upon the hill where you can see the ocean and hear the roar of the waves, during high surf! The large, open kitchen has a breakfast bar with granite countertops, a 6 gas burner stove and double ovens. The beach-entry, saltwater pool is perfect for children of all ages and surrounded by lush mature trees and flowers. You can spend your days in the backyard oasis, grilling, swimming and lounging. Or if you need recommendations for beaches or restaurants I'm always happy to share tips to make your Kona holiday wonderful! Our onsite manager, Pauly, lives in the apartment downstairs, so if there is something you need, feel free to knock on his door and he is happy to help! Please reach out through VRBO message, first, if outside of normal business hours.

This rental spot was exactly what my family needed. This home was a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the Aloha of Hawaii. I would gladly return and stay again. Thank you to the owners from the gift of their home. We are very grateful. I would strongly recommend this rental to others. Comfy beds, good kitchen and a gorgeous pool are my three favorites of this property.

Our Hostess & on-site host were very kind & friendly. Nice people always make the experience great. The house was very comfortable with all you need to relax, cook, just live. The location was perfect: central location for Kailua-Kona coastline, as well as for going North & South for site seeing. Love love loved this place. If we’d never left the house, we were in paradise. Beds were comfortable & pool and deck were fabulous.

We had a wonderful stay at Annie's place! It was well equipped with everything we needed, including all cooking utensils needed for meal and a beautiful pool/outdoor area to hang out in! There were six of us in our group and there was plenty of space! Being Canadians it was quite hot with no AC, but there were plenty of fans to help keep the place cool! The location was great, close to the beach and must see sights. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Kona! Thank you Annie!

Aloha Laurie So sorry about the construction. Since1990 this home has raised my family, and we never even had a key! Times have changed a little, but neighborhood looking out for each other hasen't. I am waiting for new windows and louvers to be shipped, it is time. Unfortunately Hawaiian Time! I can't wait to be back on Island full time. I hear I really missed out on meeting you two. Missing out on meeting nice people can't be replaced. Mahalo for your kind and helpful remarks, greatly appreciated. Annie

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Reece

Host profile image

Our parents, Mick and Annie, bought this house in 1991. My sister and I grew up in this home and we are incredibly grateful to be able to maintain it as a place that our family can always return to and a place that visitors can enjoy as well. Our mom, Annie, always said that if we weren’t able to be there enjoying the house, she liked to know that other families could be. She loved to hear the sound of people laughing, BBQing in the backyard and splashing in the pool. It has always been more than a house. We’ve called it home for 35 years.

Mom (Annie) kept the home as a primary residence for many years after my sister and I moved away and our dad passed. Years ago, she converted the garage into a downstairs apartment where she lived happily with her dog, Georgie, and her cat, Blanche. She rented the upstairs as a VRBO for many years, until her recent passing.

Our mom took great joy in being a part of the Kona experience for her guests. She enjoyed sharing her love for Kona and her aloha spirit, whether you were first time guests or lifelong friends, she treated you the same. Me and my sister, Aimee, hope to fill her shoes the best we can. We hope to make everyone feel like a welcomed guest in our beloved home and cultivate the love of Kona that our mom did for all those years. That is our mom’s legacy. We hope you love Annie’s Hale as much as we do ❤️

With aloha,

Sarah Reece

What makes this property unique

In the front yard you have beautiful, mature palm trees and lush landscaping. In the backyard, a saltwater pool with beach access entry, dining tables, lounge chairs, a BBQ and an outdoor shower.

The living, dining room and kitchen are open and airy, with slate floors, so don't worry about coming in wet from the pool!

Watch the waves from kitchen/breakfast bar and listen to the waves crash (on a high surf day) while you are sipping your coffee.
Whether it’s fun or relaxation that you’re looking for, Annie’s Hale has got you covered 🤙
