Two brothers and spouses took a Hawaiian vacation. Two islands, four rentals, two fabulous weeks. Ali’i Point was far and away the most spectacular house!

Oceanfront at its best
Looks exactly as pictured - oceanfront means an unobstructed view of the ocean from every bedroom, the main room, and all parts of the extensive lanai. We stayed here in late January and it was a great spot to viewing a large number of whales every day! It was a wonderful place for our family to gather together for a long awaited group vacation. Definitely one of the nicer places we have stayed on the Big Island. Thank you!

Beautiful property with a great location and views.
This was a beautiful and well-maintained property with a lanai that cannot be beat! The ocean view was gorgeous with plenty of windows to take it in from multiple areas of the house. Loved the large open doors, which did a great job with ventilation. The AC was only in the main 3 bedrooms, which made the "kids" room somewhat stuffy. Additionally, there was an issue with the initial entry code provided, but this was rapidly addressed by the person on call for the property. It is a little far from Volcanos National Park, but close to many gorgeous beaches. This was a great place to stay - just wish we could have stayed longer.

Magical and Memorable
This home provided a perfect place to spend our family vacation! Close enough to downtown and an centralized location to enjoy the entire island. We have visited the island previously but consider this home to our best-loved rental to date. The home was one of our favorite things from the trip because it gave us such a peaceful and beautiful retreat when we were not out on an adventure.

Kona Ocean Dream
Fabulous location . Spectacular vista. Ocean lover's dream. Very clean. Septic system was clogged and needed repair but was done promptly. Cold water faucet in master bath frozen shut. Repair never completed. Great snorkel and beach gear. Modern SUV's too big to fit into garage. Some electrical outlets downstairs bedroom not powered and reading lamp not usable. House needs instructions how to use air conditioner units. Support team very responsive and polite. Despite minor criticisms best vacation home we've ever stayed in.
