Oceanview Escape in Captain Cook | Peaceful Island Retreat

Escape the lights and traffic of downtown Kona and unwind in this peaceful oceanside retreat. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers breathtaking ocean views, nightly sunsets, and the serene beauty of Hawaii’s natural landscape, all from your private lanai.
Perched above historic Captain Cook, this elevated home captures panoramic views of the ocean and lush Hawaiian canopy. It’s the perfect balance of privacy and convenience, just minutes from iconic Big Island beaches like Pebble Beach at the bottom of the hill.
Inside, you’ll find comfort and island charm:
Primary Bedroom: Queen bed with ensuite bath
Guest Bedroom: Two twin beds and a private bath
Living Area: Relax with a 43” Smart TV, free WiFi, and ceiling fans throughout
Full Kitchen: Fully equipped with an oven, stovetop, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker
Laundry: Washer and dryer in unit
Parking: Private driveway
Sip your morning coffee or evening margarita on the lanai as you take in the endless blue horizon. At a cool, comfortable altitude, you’ll enjoy gentle breezes and the sounds of island life away from the crowds.
When you’re ready to explore, you’re just a short drive from Kona coffee farms, snorkeling at Two Step, and local dining in South Kona. Experience the real bounty of Hawaii. Peace, views, and authentic island living.
Beautiful Pebble Beach is just 5 minutes away! A hidden gem that is the perfect setting for snorkeling, swimming, scuba diving, kayaking, and boating.
The driveway is very steep and we recommend either 4WD or parking at street level.
We provide complimentary starter essentials including paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, laundry detergent, hand soap, and trash bags. We also have air mattress, pack and play, and high chair available for rent.
Receive peace-of-mind knowing that if something does go wrong, one of our friendly and professional staff members is only a phone call away. With a warm “Aloha”, we at First Island Realty look forward to welcoming you to the most authentic option for a true island living experience.

The Check-in process and communication with the property manager was awesome. The views and neighborhood were beautiful. The condo, unfortunately, had a dead cockroach on the floor, a slightly broken dishwasher, no water pressure, and poor linens. The WiFi was so slow, aTV streaming was impossible and it could not be watched.

Great view!!!!

Good location in terms of driving to the National Park and Mauna Kea. Captain Cook is a short drive away, with great coffee shops. The view is spectacular!! The nights were restful, with birdsong to lull you to sleep and a cool breeze to keep things comfortable. Would stay here again and definitely tecommend it.

Not quite what I was hoping for

Pros: Great communication - very prompt reply. Decent pricing. Plenty of gear available for snorkeling etc. Neutral: As other reviewers mentioned, the mosquitos are a bit of a pain. As the host informed us, the driveway is ridiculously steep - parked on the street when not loading or unloading. Cons: While pleasant and clean, after a while it was clear that the overall vibe was "good enough." There were a lot of things that could be improved, large and small. Example: the seating in the living room is half of a sectional couch, plus an ottoman with a pillow against the wall. The first position of the couch was comfortable, the rest were not. So there is seating for four, but only comfortable seating for one. Good enough. The other thing that lowered the rating was the second giant cockroach. The first one chose to expire dramatically in the bathroom sink. Hey, no big deal, guess the pest control is working. The second one was on the shelf in the bedroom with my underwear as I was packing to leave. I had to unpack my suitcase, shake everything out, then repack while keeping an eye out for hitchhikers. It was a toss up between two and three stars. It came down to a simple question: Would I stay here again? The answer is no, hence only two stars.

Property was as advertised. Peaceful beautiful view. However it was a VERY steep road and driveway. When wet the road became slick and at one point tires spinning we were crossing fingers that we would make it to the highway. But all good. Would stay again

My daughter and I stayed here in July 2024. The view from the Lanai is exceptional, the inside of the property is a bit worn and dated, but everything we tried to use worked as it should. We spent most of the time we were at the house on the Lanai enjoying the beautiful view.

Pictures don't give the view justice

Great property, clean and comfortable. Would be great for up to 4 people and fine for kids. The lanai is bigger than the picture makes it out to be and the view is really spectacular. Would totally stay there again. Definitely go down to the beach at the bottom of the road (it's a drive not a walk). Awesome snorkeling and just listening to the waves roll across the pebbles is a memory I hope I don't lose. The road and driveway here is much steeper than I expected. We had a AWD Nissan Murano and tried the driveway and bottomed out - we parked on the street the rest of our stay and it was fine. If you are not good with stairs this could be a problem for you. Getting to the property you could probably be fine without AWD but if you want to go to the beach you probably need AWD because it's so steep. My only feedback for the owners - the couch is really uncomfortable. Unrelated to the property general advice: You must be prepared for how far out of town this is. We stayed for 3 nights and brought groceries to have dinner and breakfast at the house every day. If you are looking for a base on the Kona side and then go out to dinner every night this area is not good for you.

Incredible Sunsets

This property was spacious and comfortable. View from the lanai was spectacular. quiet neighborhood. Do take the warnings about the steep driveway. As two people in our 70’s, we had to exert a great deal of energy to get our luggage down the driveway and up the outdoor stair! Once we loaded in everything was perfect!

Amazing view, nice big kitchen, laundry a plus , great deal

Thanks for an incredible stay. Sunset views incredible. Some convenient products left by previous occupants like bug repellant. We added chili powder to the kitchen! Bring body soap if you need it as they do have hand soap and shampoo but we bought our own bar. Loved the little cooler and snorkeling gear and beach chairs. So helpful!! The auto motion detector in the master bathroom is a bit fussy so I would turn it to “on” when using it.
