About this property

99 steps to quiet beach - Centrally located - Great for families & groups

Ideally located on iconic Alii Drive directly where the world famous Iron Man takes place annually.
A number of palm trees and local landscaping on the front and side of the property add to the tropical appeal.
Nearby are many of Kona's enviable attractions including its famed beaches, surf spots, golf, restaurants and much more.

Almost midway between Kailua-Kona and Keauhou, this two story (plus roof deck), three bedroom, three bath home has the added benefit of two separate living areas. The home is one unit but each level can be separated, if desired, by a door.

Each level is equipped with a stocked kitchen, a washer and dryer and an outdoor space.

From the second level and open roof deck, views of the nearby ocean can be enjoyed, while the roof deck with seating and BBQ provides a great venue for relaxed viewing of Kona's famous sunsets and hinterland that includes Mt Hualalai.

Right out the front door of the lower level, there is a covered seating area, complete with a hammock for relaxing in the sunshine.

Please keep in mind that the famed Alii Drive offers beautiful views and is the "Main Street " of the town, with that does come vehicular noise.

There is a two car carport as well as a paved parking area for two more cars at the front of the home.

After a day at the beach, there is an outdoor shower area to rinse off the sand.

Please note that the water (showers, sinks, etc.) only gets pleasantly warm, not hot and takes a bit of time to get there. There may be ants/bugs on the property, we maintain with pest control regularly, but this is very common for a tropical environment to still experience some bugs around.

Beautiful location and home

We enjoyed this beautiful property. There were 3 couples and we couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay. We enjoyed the upper deck, the layout of the main house and the ease of the location. Highly recommend this house for a vacation with friends or family.

Great place for large family getaway!

The house was spacious and a perfect spot on Alii drive to host our large family for the weekend. Check in was quick, and we utilized the extra spaces. AC was provided throughout the house, which was perfect for the hot Kona days! I would rent this house again, we just needed more linen for the pullout couch. Mahalo but loa!

Family get away

The house was much larger than we had expected but was perfect for the amount of people we had. Plenty of room for everyone so you never felt like you were crowded or anyone under foot. The house was well stocked for 2 kitchens so cooking was not an issue. The owners were very helpful and attentive at all times. Mahalo, we loved our stay.

Rooftop Patio place

Staying here was like home. The kitchen is well equipped for folks who like to cook. The location was perfect for our visit to Hawaii. There are good walking trails, access to beaches, snorkeling and historical sites. We found good restaurants close by. We started the day on the root top patio having out coffee, stretching, and doing yoga. We spent hours on the patio late afternoons into early evenings.

Great family home

The house was great for our large single family. Well appointed and stocked with necessities. The location was great as well. Close to beaches stores grocers and restaurants. Our only negative was the strict check in time. The host was not negotiable for an earlier check in. We have not experienced that in the past with other family focused rentals. Overall would recommend this home to other families traveling to Kona but would advise them to plan arrival accordingly to the check in time.

Spacious house on Ali’i drive

This house was large enough to accommodate our family vacation. The a/c worked well throughout the house and the beds were comfortable. The host answered quickly when we had questions. The patio was great for morning coffee and yoga, and we watched the lunar eclipse up there. All of the gear you could need for the beach is available, and the outdoor shower is great for rinsing off. A couple of things to note if you are planning a trip - the large living room and couch pictured is upstairs, so if you have people coming that struggle with stairs, you’d have to do everything downstairs with the small couch and bar seating area. There is no table downstairs (despite it being in photos). The upstairs kitchen has a lot of dishes, cookware, and appliances, and we found everything we needed.

An overall good experience

We were traveling with 5 teenagers and 3 adults so it was great to have a place with so much room. Everyone had plenty of space to stretch out in. I also loved having so much light with all the windows. The beginning of the trip was a little rocky with my daughter falling down some stairs and badly spraining her foot and then a stopped up toilet that caused quite a mess but then it smoothed out and we had a great time. I should add that the toilet was our fault but we didn't know how tricky the toilets are in Hawaii. The house was located close to beaches and also places to eat and a grocery store which we liked. Communication was pretty good with the manager but occasionally it took a long time which was frustrating when we needed new towels after the bathroom disaster. The plumbers came as soon as possible, though, and did an absolutely fantastic job of cleaning up the mess. Overall a good experience here.

Even better than advertised

We had an eight member family vacation July 8-15, 2023. During our stay, we had two questions we needed to ask the host and did so via email. The host's response was immediate! Very impressive and efficient. Everything was even better than described. For example, we had no trouble getting nice hot water everywhere. The only difficulty was that some of the plumbing lines were crossed inside the walls so that what one would assume was for turning on the hot was cold instead. Minimal twist to rotating faucets was hot and maximum twist was cold. There was sufficient beach equipment for every age. We had a rented pick-up truck we loaded up. Otherwise, we are not sure we could have carried it all, even to the beach across the street. Our granddad did not believe the ad saying 99 steps to the beach, so he counted his walk = 90 steps! Thank you, hosts!

We had an amazing stay here. The host communications were wonderful. He was very prompt and always available. The home was beautiful. The amenities that were provided were so helpful. Extra towels, soap, shampoo, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent. This made it all easy for us to go right into vacation and not have to worry about all of the little things. We did a lot of cooking while we were there and they had all the utensils plates pots pans everything we needed. The rooftop access created an environment that we all loved for early sunrise coffee and sunset relaxation. This ended up being one of our best vacations we’ve ever taken, and we have stayed in Kona for the last five years in a row. We will definitely be coming back.

Ironman Kona Retreat

We had an amazing experience staying here during the Ironman World Championships. The house was spacious enough to easily accommodate our party of six and provide enough room for friends to join us on race day. The beach cruiser bikes included in our rental made it easy and convenient to get downtown and the close proximity to beaches kept my children happy. Great home, perfect location.

Wonderful place, close to town, and well stocked!

We had a lovely stay - it was comfortable, and well provisioned for our group of 6. Perfect for couples - a private room, bed and bath for each, and so ace to relax without crowding each other. It’s also incredibly well stocked with spices, cooking utensils, games, coolers for day tripping and beach supplies (towels, chairs, umbrellas, boards, etc), just bring the food! We would definitely stay again if we found ourselves on the Big Island!

Fantastic Stay for a larger group

We had a party of 6 adults and found this property to be perfect for our needs. Ample space for everyone to spread out and great communal areas for when we wanted to come together. We loved watching the sun set from the roof top deck and walking over to the secret beach. Set just outside of town, this was a quiet rental while still super close to the downtown area and attractions. This made a great home base for us while we explored the island. Zane was super responsive to any questions we had and was always pleasant and courteous. Can’t wait to come back!
