Kona Retreat 2.7 Secluded Acres - Close to Old Hawaii, Beach & Shopping!

The location was excellent. Very secluded from the downtown area but accessible. The best part of the property were the outdoor areas and the grounds. The views were stunning and we enjoyed our stay very much. The place could use some detail cleaning and updating but otherwise a great place to stay.

Always amazing

It’s Paradise

This place is even more beautiful than the pictures! It is a little slice of paradise. We loved how each guest had a private area but there were multiple areas for groups to mingle.

Incredible property with so much to do and see. My family loved every second at this home and didn't want to leave. The view in the back is spectacular, you can watch the sunset every night. The garden varied and pretty to look at. Bathrooms were comfortable and good water pressure.

Beautiful retreat!

We enjoyed our stay, view was amazing. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub and outside space.The property manager and owner were very responsive.

Within 20 minutes of shops and the beach, but far enough away from the bustle of the crowds. So quiet, such amazing views, perfect for families and friends. Everything was absolutely perfect there - even the frogs at night.Than you for making our first time in Kona so incredible.

Everything was great! Amazing views and central to a lot of stores and restaurants. The property manager Anthony was awesome and very helpful.

The property was lovely and very Zen like. We enjoyed the gardens, vast expanse of views to the ocean and all the tropical trees and plants. The privacy was very special too.

We love this house - it’s our third time staying here!! It is perfect for our three couples and it is well appointed. But it’s the views which keep us coming back. We look forward to booking our fourth trip to this home!!

We enjoyed the location being more private and away from the busyness of the resorts. The fresh fruit on property was amazing!

The property was wonderful and the kitchen well stocked. So enjoyed roaming the garden and picking fresh fruit and vegetables for our use. The view was amazing and being able to watch the whales always a bonus. Easy access to some great beaches!As stated in another reply the communication regarding check in needs correction.

Beautiful setting, perfect for our group of three couples, and close to everything in Kailua-Kona

The pictures in the listing do not begin to do this place justice. It is absolutely wonderful. Our family of 5 -my husband and I, our 2 adult children and a daughter-in-law thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My son was blown away by the design of the house - It was very interesting having separate sleeping quarters apart from the central living, dining and kitchen area. The courtyards were beautiful, and all walkways were under cover so we never got wet during a rain. The view was breath-taking. We tried to catch each and every sunset. And fruit! So much fruit! We ate, and ate, and ate some more! Papaya, mangoes, guava, figs, starfruit, dragon fruit, lemons, limes, passion fruit (bananas were not ripe and we didn't have time to ferment the cacao), etc. The girls were so excited to go out for the daily harvest! The place is absolutely wonderful and a short drive down the mountain - but I REALLLY had a hard time convincing my daughter to leave the property to do anything else! We only turned the TV on once on the last day - it was rainy and drippy. Most of our time was spent on the patio - either soaking up the sun, reading a book in the hot-tub, taking a dip in the pool, or working a jigsaw puzzle or playing cards on the patio dining table. We loved the place and couldn't stop facetiming friends to give them the tour of the unusual place. We truly enjoyed a relaxing stay on this side of the island after a busy time on the other.

We had such an amazing time staying here and would definitely come back. The house is spacious and clean, the pool and hot tub were perfect and the view was incredible. The owner was very prompt and responsive. Thank you!

The property was incredible. The views from the patio/pool/spa were unbeatable. We enjoyed the outdoor space and all the fruit trees in the yard. We really enjoyed the bird feeder and provided seed as it brought in so many beautiful birds to watch. It was a very nice space to come back to after long days of exploring the island. We were a family of 5 adults, so the separate bedroom situation worked well for us, but might not work for families with small children. Anthony was great to work with and very quick to respond and helpful when needs arose. The property is secluded, but a short drive to restaurants/farmers markets/stores. We all agreed the location was one of our favorite places we have stayed over the years. We are not ones to relax much on vacation, but this location really invited us to just sit back, enjoy the yard and unwind! Would definitely stay at the Hideaway if we return to The Big Island!

Great location and the view is spectacular. Nice pool and hot tub. What fell short was the lack of up keep on the property. When we arrived, the toilet seat in the master bedroom was broken and the toilet paper holder was off the wall. The property manager arrived to fix the toilet seat. He brought a round seat rather than an oval that didn’t fit the toilet, which remained the full 10 days we were there. The coffee pot didn’t work and it was two days before we got a new one. The TV didn’t work so again the property manager came put new batteries in the remote and was able to get it turned on. Unfortunately, it wouldn’t change channels, and they couldn’t turn it off without unplugging it. He said he couldn’t fix it because he didn’t know anything about TVs. The printed material and check in information said that the swimming pool was heated to 88 with solar panels. Again, the property manager that came out said the pool is not heated never has been and we saw no evidence of solar paneld or 88 There were solar panels that were for hot water but the first few days we were there it was overcast and we were only able to get one hot shower one day everyone else had cold showers. Had we known there was no back up for the hot water we would’ve managed our time and activities differently. This property has great potential and some wonderful amenities. It just needs some TLC.

The property was beautiful, the gardens were lovely, fruit, trees, flowers everywhere. Swimming pool, very nice and clean, solar heated, Jacuzzi could use a little cleanup or at least some bromine to keep it clean while visiting. Plenty of amenities, we will go back.

This property was a good fit for our 3-generation holiday vacation. Each couple had their own bedroom with bathroom. The pool and hot tub were used almost each evening as we returned from sightseeing and touring the island. The location was a good midpoint for accessing many of the island attractions. Our only concern was the cleanliness of the home could have been better. The tile floors were dirty. I spilled water when filling ice trays and when I wiped it up with a paper towel it came up a dirty brown. We also noticed glasses in the cupboards were dusty/dirty and required washing prior to using. There appeared to be mold along the rim of the washing machine door. But overall, this home was a great fit for us and we enjoyed it immensely. I would definitely recommend to others.

Overall our stay was quite lovely. Although the place was not as clean as I would have liked, we would stay here again.
