HOLUALOA COUNTRY HOME

Love, love, love. Perfect place for a quiet decompression getaway! Thank you!! ?

Perfect getaway. Everything you need plus a cool mountain breeze. This host is amazing, reaches out with answers and responds almost immediately. We hated to leave, it’s a “peace” of heaven on Earth.

Excellent house. Very very clean, organized and incredible view. Very private country setting. Comfy bed. Host left us core items like aloe and cooking items. Highly recommend!

Really well organized, very clean, and welcoming property. We did have a hard time finding it at night but host was very gracious and provided very detailed instructions. It's not their fault we arrived late at night and couldn't see well. We would love to stay there again!

We arrived just after the Kona Low storm had passed. Had a bit of difficulty locating the driveway in the dark but a gracious neighbor showed us the way. Awoke the next morning to no hot water but the owner quickly responded and the issue was remedied. The house was very beautiful with all the amenities needed for a great stay. The extra touch with coffee and snacks was greatly appreciated. Watching the sunset from the front porch was worth a million dollars and made the stay a memorable occasion. Would recommend this place in a heartbeat and would love to return someday. Mahalo

Host was great. We had a minor request which was handled immediately. The place was very clean, quaint, and uniquely different than staying down in busy Alii Dr.

Perfect for a few nights! Appreciated the snacks and coffee from the host. Having beach towels was also so nice.

This place gave us a true old Hawaii feel. The road to the home was rural and authentic. Away from the crowds, yet close to everything. Very clean, fully stocked and so much better than a hotel. Have to say Diesel the dog gave us quite the welcome. The bed and pillows super comfortable.

This is a working coffee plantation. ATV’s bomb passed your window starting at 5:30 a.m. all day back and forth until 6 or 7 p.m.

It was awesome! Friendly host, lovely location, watching the sunset over the ocean was perfect! We would definitely stay again! Thank you!

Lori was so helpful, we had the best time staying at her country cottage. It was easy to get to and she was the best host ever…. Lori Mahalo!

The toaster remains broken. A couple tray tables would be nice as there is no place to eat dinner. It is no longer a quiet place as our sleep was disturbed every morning at 4:15 am, 5:00 am, 5:30 am by the loudest diesel truck I’ve ever heard, and headlights shining in the bedroom window. The other unit no longer rents to tourists, but is instead rented to a working farm family with little children. Their noisy diesel truck and gator vehicle come and go all day.

I really enjoyed the drive to the house, a very authentic country road that winds straight up the mountain from Kona. The dog is very friendly and we enjoyed his presence. The place stayed very cool for sleeping.

Very quiet yet close to everything. Kitchen is equipped so well and we loved it.

Only negative/be-aware-of first: it can get hot and muggy in the afternoons. Don't leave the windows open hoping for a breeze, we figured out that leaving them shut after the early morning kept some of the overnight coolness in the house. We appreciated the super comfortable mattress and luxurious pillows and slept well here. We saved a lot of money on our trip by using their kitchen and their ice chest to pack lunches. It was nice that they provided your first day's coffee, sugar, oatmeal, some snack bars, beach towels, and washer/dryer. This place is not far from anything as the crow flies, but is way up the mountainside from the coast. The road to the house is in good condition (our little Toyota Corolla rental had no trouble), but can be a bit of a nail biter if you're not used to such steep roads that go straight up/down. We got used to it and would stay again, and the payoff is a lush semi-wild farmland surrounding you and a view down to the ocean below.

Cute and Comfy

My husband and I like a rural country setting with cool nights, with the beautiful nature and local coffee, orange, banana and palm trees. we enjoyed the sunsets and sunrises on the patio.

We love this property. It is a great home base for all our island exploring. The host is attentive and anticipates potential needs. This property is a little gem on the Big Island!

Very nice place. Could use a small table and chairs for dining and the toaster doesn’t work very well. Otherwise everything is great.

The lower Haluloa Einar country home was very quaint and very pretty. Loved the location and the weather with the cool night breezes and the days that were perfect!

Everything was well provided. One with nature. Would of liked better signs for night driving. Nice & quiet.

Nice quiet comfortable place. Enjoyed sitting on the lanai and watching the sunset. Not the most comfortable couch

Nice place.

We booked this as a 1 night stay for our trip home out of Kona. It’s clean/comfy and has a nice little lanai where we enjoyed a cold drink as the sunset over the ocean on our last night in Hawaii. It’s a perfect spot for a couple with room for a +1 if needed.

We absolutely loved our stay at the charming Holualoa country home. The lanai boasts a stunning view of the ocean and sunset. While downtown Kona was sweltering in the heat, it was nice and cool on the mountain. I miss hearing the coqui frogs at night! The hosts leave lots of beach gear for your use - beach chairs, an umbrella, a boogie board, snorkels, a cooler, beach towels, etc., which is incredibly nice for those of us who fly in! I would not recommend a low-setting car for the drive up the mountain, though. You'll bottom out on some of the potholes.
