Sunset House

We stayed at this home in Waikoloa and overall had a good experience. The house is spacious and in a nice, convenient location. The backyard was a highlight, with great ocean views, and having a washer and dryer was very helpful during our stay. That said, there were a few drawbacks to be aware of. The WiFi did not work consistently in all rooms, which was challenging since cell service is limited on one side of the house. Additionally, there is only AC in one room, and without much wind the house became stuffy at times. Overall, it’s a comfortable place with great views, but a few improvements would make it even better. 7 out of 10.

the house is situated on a small hill and the sunsets are breathtaking.

We loved our stay at Sunset House. There were four of us staying there and, upon arrival, one of our friends said, “this is the nicest rental house I’ve ever stayed in.” We loved having drinks outside and watching the sunset, of course, and the feral kitty, who we affectionately nicknamed Bugsy, was the best. We had an amazing time and I can’t recommend it enough!!! We hope to be back.

Patio and garden was lovely.

The house was beautiful and with great views of the sunsets. Kindra was a great host and very responsive as well as sharing travel tips.

The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals plus lots of spices, sauces and oil. The lanai was beautiful surrounded by a beautiful garden. The photo on the listing is a bit deceptive. The ocean is many miles away with a busy road and homes between the rental and the water. The bedrooms and bathrooms were comfortable, plenty of sheets and towels to use. A large television with plenty of seating was nice in the living area. The house is older and not fancy. The garage had boogie boards, beach chairs, golf clubs along with other equipment to use. There are a couple of cats who live on the property. One in particular was very friendly and slept on the outdoor furniture. If you are allergic to cats, you should stay elsewhere. The host was friendly, good communication and had easy to follow instructions.

Kitchen was perfect….sharp knives, good pans, great space! The beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler and snorkel gear were great and a life saver for all our beach days! Location was awesome! Quiet neighborhood with pretty sunset view and grocery store/coffee show close!

Great place. Sunsets on ocean at night. Room for children. Lot of love and care on landscaping. Master bedroom had AC. Path to get to sidewalks to walk in mornings. Close to Hapuna Beach and Waimea.

Wonderful location. Outdoor space was so lovely and relaxing. Great for sunsets!

The house is well equipped, in a great location, and very comfortable overall! We had a great stay!

Beautiful patio for sunset. Great Location in Waikoloa Village. Well equipped, clean house with lots of space. Outside cats were fun neighbors too!

Epic house with epic views…this was our second stay. It had everything to make our time over on the Waikaloa side perfect. The kitchen was well stocked as well as the towels, linens and beach paraphanelia! Mahalo nui!

Was the perfect place to stay on our family vacation! We loved that it was quiet and in a nice neighborhood, even fell in love with the kitten that lives outside! Would book again if we were on the big island.

Clean, comfortable and roomy for our group. We went all over the island and this was a great location for our “home base”.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Check-in and check-out were incredibly easy and straightforward. We had a couple of very minor concerns and maintenance was there first thing the next morning (what incredible service!). The house was lovely and everything we were looking for. Two of my family members are extremely allergic to cats. The listing didn't mention cats at the time of our booking - however, that has been changed. The owner did communicate that there was a feral cat near the home before we arrived. However, we didn't know the cats lived so close to the house. The feeder is right at the back door. At the time of our stay, there were three cats living there and they all spent significant time on the outdoor furniture. Because of allergies, we were unable to fully enjoy the outdoor space (which is truly one of the very best parts of the home). I would caution anyone with pet allergies. Otherwise, this is a truly delightful home!

We saw some beautiful sunsets from this property ! A very nice patio area. The house is well stocked with snorkeling equipment, towels, beach items, coolers, games and so on which made our trip even more enjoyable. It is not far from a grocery store. We enjoyed our stay here.

We had a great stay at sunset house!! The house is clean, spacious, well equipped, perfect for a Hawaii vacation on the Big Island. We enjoyed several beautiful sunsets in the house’s garden relaxing. All in our group agree we would definitely return to this house and recommend it.

Sunsets every night. Best VRBO I’ve stayed at on big island. Nice beds. Nice showers. Nice landscaping path to road for walks. Quick access to beach. Great place

We stayed at the house for the weekend. It was a nice and cute house. Comfortable. A yard was neat and pretty. Since it was for tennis matches, we were grateful for a cooler there. Initially it was warm, but once wind started blowing, it was cool. The owner was nice and communicate d well. She is responsible and friendly.

This house was amazing to my friends and I over the weekend! The location is a good distance from the airport and Waikoloa, and the view was very beautiful at night and during the day, along with the very nice breeze we felt at night! The home is just like the photos online, however, our only concern was that the floors didn’t feel clean (as locals we don’t use footwear inside), the floor was dirty but I think that was because of the dust and dirt that came through the window? So if that would be a concern for you I’d wear your footwear indoors or just use socks. Kindra and Ireland were amazing hosts. Their response time was very fast and they were very kind to us. We had a 9 month old with us who is crawling and I wouldn’t recommend any babies to go crawling around in the home as it is not baby proofed but nonetheless, my baby enjoyed her stay as well. Overall, I highly recommend this property and this host and would 100% come back when I do come back to the big island!

We stayed here during an outrigger racing paddling trip. The house is perfect for a group of 6. The beds are comfortable, there are several sitting areas. The lanai is beautiful, cool with great views and a lovely neighborhood companion cat to keep us company. The kitchen is very functional and well outfitted with all manner of cooking utensils and a good variety of spices and condiments. Everything is supplied including toilet paper, paper towels and garbage bags, beach towels, chairs, coolers and other beach necessities. There are board games, books and movies too. The owner was very responsive when we were challenged with the television setup ( since tropical storm Hone was imminent and we thought we might have to stay in for a few days) and drove over to take care of it immediately. The area is quite breezy, and we had great air circulation despite the heat. We did not need AC. The place felt like home and we would return in a heartbeat.

This house was perfect for us. We were very comfortable. Our host was accommodating and quick to respond. I highly recommend this house.

Lots of Aloha in this Hawaii home - nice Hawaiian style furnishings inside and out, comfortable and well stocked with kitchen tools and basics, as well as everything you need for the beach: coolers, towels, chairs and toys. Nice breezes to keep the temperature comfortable. And because it is Hawaii, lots of insects to feed the geckos that co-exist. Overall, a very enjoyable home where we created lots of great memories!
