    House was good. Kitchen had all of the needed appliances. Nice to have the washer and dryer. Everyone enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Home manage was responsive. Was disappointed that there were no beach chairs. Could have used more beach towels. Driveway was more challenging than anticipated.

    The house was absolutely perfect for my family of 14. It had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen is well stocked which is a huge benefit since we cooked our dinners in. The pool and hot tub had the most beautiful views! I highly recommend this home!

    This property was perfect for our group. It provided adequate beds and bathrooms. The close proximity to beaches and food was great. It offered spectacular views of the ocean and evening sunsets. The pool and spa were enjoyed as well. The property manager was informative and even allowed us to check in early. We would definitely stay here again!

    Our stay at this property was absolutely perfect for our family of 14. The layout gave us plenty of space to gather as a group while also providing comfortable areas to retreat to when we needed some quiet time. The sunsets were breathtaking, and the kids couldn’t get enough of the pool. The BBQ area was a highlight for us, making family meals even more enjoyable.The location was ideal for everything we wanted to do, but a car is definitely a must. The property was thoughtfully maintained, and we truly felt at home here. We’d return in a heartbeat—it was a fantastic experience!

    This property was perfect for my family of 15 . We had enough space for all. But I can’t say enough about the view . It was spectacular ! The most beautiful sunsets we have ever seen. The location was centrally located to many locations on both sides of island. Thank you !

    The location and house were amazing. Better than I even expected. We had 14 people of all ages and everyone was comfortable. The communication and entire process was just outstanding. First class. I have rented a lot of large vacation homes, this was the best

    A great Kona vacation. Lots of room beautiful views pool was great. Had an amazing family vacation. Plenty of beach /pool toys .steep driveway but worth it for unobstructed views. Only comment would be maybe full locking doors on bathrooms as 2 of the BR’s were shared and had a pocket door. All and all a perfect spot you will not regret

    We had about 15 people staying at the home for the Queen Liliuokalani Outrigger Race. Everyone loved the place and I got lots of positive comment. It was great to relax by the pool and watch the sunset over the ocean.
