Beautiful Ocean Views 5 Bedroom Sleeps 14 Walk to Beach, Pool, AC, & Game room

The pool was a hit with the kids!

Excellent property for family get together! Excellent lanai with views and birds. Great ac situation and great location!! Highly recommend this property!! Nice everything and amenities for every need!

We had a wonderful stay! The property was spacious, beautifully maintained, and stocked with all the little extras that made our vacation so comfortable. We especially appreciated the ample supply of paper towels, bathroom essentials, spices, and other thoughtful touches that are often overlooked.The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The beds were amazingly comfortable, and the location couldn't have been better.. just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and local attractions.The pool was fantastic, and there was plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. Overall, the accommodations exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this property and would happily stay here again!

super!

Great location and great for families!

Everything was great. The only thing that was problematic was that you have to go outside from the basement portion to get upstairs, but we already knew that from the description. It wouldn’t be a problem if it wasn’t raining. We would stay there again!

We did not have the greatest weather, but we made the most of our time. The house was clean with so many supplies! The location was great. We were within walking distance to the beaches and restaurants. The hosts responded quickly to all my messages!

The owner and property managers were easy to communicate with. Very helpful. We loved the pool, the large kitchen and living room. The bedroom sizes were great as well as the bathrooms. Nice view of the ocean and sunset. Great size for our party of 8 adults and 2 toddlers.

Very accommodating for our family and friends.

What a fantastic house! This VRBO has more than you can imagine, the most well stocked rental I’ve ever stayed in (beach towels, spices, laundry soap, toys, chairs, coolers, etc). We had a group of 5 adults and 3 kids (10. 12 & 17). Great location, the kids loved the pool, very comfortable beds. I can’t say enough about this rental and all the thoughtful amenities.

The host answered my questions promptly before our stay. House was nice, except A/C in upper level living area was not working, prior to our arrival.

The quiet location was wonderful! Nice to have a pool and be within walking distance to a beach. The beds were super comfortable. Only issue was the air conditioning unit in the main part of house was not working. We were able to work around it by opening up windows and doors at night to cool it down. Would recommend staying here nonetheless

We had a wonderful week. Loved the ocean view and the short walk to the beach.

The location was awesome! We loved the pool and my kids loved playing in the game room. It was so nice that they had lots of boogie boards, beach toys, beach chairs, and snorkels available for use!

Great location in a quiet neighborhood. A great house with good beds and welcoming and easy to find kitchen items. Loved everything about this place and would definitely book again

We loved the location - We were fairly centralized for all the activities we did that were close to the house. We had 3 couples and 2 adult children and we had enough bedrooms for everyone. It was nice to have the two kitchens - upstairs and downstairs. If anything, we only wished that it would have had access to the downstairs/upstairs inside vs. having to go out and up/down. Wonderful stay. Did also enjoy the view of the ocean and beautiful sunsets.

Excellent house for all us. Clean and enough space for all of us to gather but also great if we needed privacy. Would absolutely rent this house again.

Wonderful stay! Ten adults stayed at the house for a race and it was the perfect space to come home to and relax in/by the pool. There was so many water toys (floats, water shoes, masks) that all of us were able to use and snorkel nearby! Recommend this house if you have a large group staying together!

Unfortunately only half our family could go but we had a great time.

It has been an easy check in process, Only thing was to figure out how to enter and lock the downstairs area, (acces through the gearge , code outside of it located), No keys were found- but good and quick respond of the owner- Lots of space, big rooms, comfortable beds.Pictures representing the house very good, no false promisses. This Proberty is in the tsunami evacuation zone( during our stay, the owner has been very kind with provide information due to the tsunami warning )Lots of reminders in the house about the courtesy quiet House :) walking distance - 10min down the hill to Magic Sand beach, Bus stations, Only down side the pool light did not work and it has been quiet dark after sunset- we have used the provided torches as a light on the table.

the house is clean, roomy, in the center of everything, beaches, markets, shops, national parks.

My family and I had a fabulous time in this beautiful vacation home. It was spacious, well furnished & had everything there that we needed to have a wonderful time. The fact that there was a living room, kitchen, laundry room, bedrooms and bathrooms on both the upper and lower level was very helpful. It provided space for both of our adult sons and their families and also my husband & I. We loved the location with a short walk to the beach and short drive to restaurant and shopping areas. Our kids and grandkids spent a lot of time in the lower level recreation room and especially enjoyed playing table tennis. We appreciated that the house was well supplied with bathroom toiletries, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent and paper products. The large dining table and area was great as we could all eat together. If we ever come back to Hawaii island, I would try to rent this house again for sure!

Our 3 generation group of 8 throughly enjoyed our stay at the house. We made full use of the pool and game room. The kitchen was basic, but fully functional for vacation mode meals. Lots of room at the dining room table for everyone to eat together. We all enjoyed watching the sunsets from the balcony on nights we were home - really beautiful. The information left by the hosts was thorough and very helpful. We ended up making our bookings based on their recommendations and were thankful that we did. This is a great house for large groups.

A perfect house for our family. A great location with a wonderful view. We all enjoyed the pool. The house was well equipped, it had everything we needed. I would highly recommend this house for a family vacation.

This house was perfect for all the families we were accommodating and having the pool was fantastic. Great location!

Clean, good location, beautiful view

The property and views were beautiful. The property was able to accommodate all 10 family members without issue. The owners sent very helpful information and were quick to respond.

The house was in a nice spot and was clean. It is very important to know that only one master suite is upstairs and the other master suites are downstairs. You have to walk through the garage into the bottom half of the house (or through the pool area). When doing so, you walk into the first master bedroom - so this is a throughway of sorts.

Wonderful place to stay and check out the Kona area. Highly recommend!

House was great for family of 12. Very clean, spacious rooms, nice to have two kitchens. The layout was a little awkward at first with both downstairs bedrooms having attached bathrooms and the two teens sleeping in cots had to go into the others’ bedrooms for the bathroom or walk up the outside stairs to get to the one upper floor general bathroom (there is also a bathroom in the upstairs primary bedroom). Once we figured it out we made it work. The kitchen and outside tables both sat all 12 of us which was nice. The house is very well equipped with lots of laundry detergent, dishwasher tabs, dish soap, paper towels and toilet paper. Lots of towels too. A couple minor issues were responded to quickly. Great location - close walk to the beach and tons of beach supplies in the garage including water shoes and lots of snorkeling stuff. There were no games as described in the ad - only puzzles. We ended up buying a game at a thrift store and left it there for others to enjoy. A great stay overall!

Jeff,Thank you for making your Akai home.PROS:• The write up you provided in advance of the rental was great. It helped set expectations, shared valuable info about the property, nearby activities, stores, restaurants, etc. It also made clear what we needed to do pre-checkout.• We LOVED the proximity to the beach. We enjoyed daily excursions to the beach and watching melting sunsets. • Kitchen provisions were excellent once we addressed the absence of pans. We never really wanted for a pot, utensil, plateware, or flatware. • The pool was delightful. • Having an abundance of beach towels handy was also a nice touch. It helped keep little ones warm whenever they came out of the water.• For those of us that snorkel, having snorkel equipment available to use was terrific. We couldn’t justify packing it in our luggage.The beach chairs were great, as well as the assortment of boogie boards.• The high chair and cots, and porta crib were incredibly handy. We also noted but did not need the small inventory of diapers in the upstairs laundry room. Again nice touch.Loved every moment of our 8 night stay.

Was everything we expected!! Very easy to find and was what was described..Great communication with owner and was flexible. I would definitely rent property again !! Very quiet and was easy to access the areas we wanted to see from house ..

Fabulous stay! Never heard any of the teens say “I’m bored!”. Thanks so much for the wonderful home away from home!

We had a few different generations in one stay and it was great. Everyone has their own space, great accommodations, and beautiful views. Highly recommend.

This place is just fabulous. What you see is what you get! The home is beautiful and perfectly located. This home is a steal of a deal excellent bedding honestly if feels like you’re home. I did not have to reach out not once upon arrival it was nothing but peace joy and tranquility from start to finish. If we go back to Kona I know where I’m staying.

Overall the vacation was amazing....the house, the location and everything in-between.When I began searching for a vacation home for our family of nine, I encountered some challenges. Initially, I attempted to book a smaller home, believing it would suffice. However, due to Hawaii laws, I was informed that I needed to book a home that could accommodate all nine of us. After continued searching, I discovered the Beautiful Ocean Views 5 Bedroom Sleeps 14 home and proceeded with the booking.Upon reviewing the charges, I noticed a 500 USD (over 700 Canadian) fee for an additional guest, despite booking for only nine guests in a property that accommodates up to fourteen. The property details did not indicate any fees for more than eight guests, which I found misleading. I believe such information should be clearly included in the property details.After contacting the host, I received the following response:Our house, like most in the Kona area, has a base rate that applies for up to 8 guests. After that, we have an extra guest fee of 50/night per guest over 8 with a maximum of 14. That amount was listed in the quote you reviewed prior to when you requested to book.While I understand and respect local laws, I maintain that this crucial detail should have been explicitly stated in the property description.Regards,

My family (7 total) and I booked this house for a family beach vacation. The home was absolutely perfect for our needs. The owners are very responsive. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. The home is stocked with anything you would need (outside of food). There were extra pillows and blankets, tons of beach accessories, coolers, chairs, etc. We all loved this rental and would absolutely stay here again if given the chance. You will not request this stay! The only advice is if you are booking this for the beach just know that in the winter there isn’t a lot of sand at the beach. It wasn’t a deal breaker for us as there are a lot of little coves to snorkel in around the town.

Perfect space for large family trip. We enjoyed the serenity of the neighborhood and view of ocean and sunsets. House was equipped with everything needed for cooking and toys for enjoying the beach and the pool. Hosts were not present but responded quickly when contacted.

Listing was 100% accurate. Great location and size for large family to spread out. Impressed by how clean the pool and house were. Would recommend and stay again.

Everything was as advertised. The pool was clean and delightful. The kitchen is great for multiple cooks and all 10 of us fit easily at the table. The house was exceptionally clean and in a lovely neighborhood. Would stay here again and will recommend it to others for a big family gathering.

This place feels like home in the island. Came well-equipped with water sports amneities, like beach chairs, mats & umbrellas. We also enjoyed the gameroom. However, would need better exterior lighting to access both levels. All together it was just amazing!

We were a group of nine staying at the property over Thanksgiving. One daughter and our three grandsons occupied the lower space, which provided them (and us) a nice separation. We gathered for meals and games in the upper living space. The pool was a huge hit with the boys. ( and adults). We made several walks to Magic Sand Beach and drove to a few other favorite Kona beaches. We all had a great time and the house worked perfect for us.

This place is perfectly suited for us! Plenty of space...full kitchens...plenty of beds and amazing views. Everything as advertised and we'll be back!

We enjoyed our first time in the big island with our family of 8. We enjoyed the large space here. There were plenty of furniture to accommodate everyone. It was a plus having 3 bedrooms with its own bathroom. Occasionally we were welcomed by little geckos which our toddler loved to look at. The outdoor space is beautiful and our family got to enjoy the pool and hang out at the poolside. It was convenient two kitchens and washers and dryers on both the first and second level. We were overall pleased with our stay here.
