Sunsets and lots of space

Family of 10 was just right for this property, everyone had a bed including the pull-out couch. Enjoyed the sunsets everyday, lots of room on the balcony with a solar LED umbrella and BBQ. Some dirty pots on arrival and towels were pretty musty, corrected with cleaning, no big deal.Sliding balcony/patio doors need some maintenance as well as some windows but manageable. Parking was great for two vehicles, road in front is pretty steep but normal for the area. Would stay again for sure.

Kealakekua property

We had a lovely stay at the Kealakekua property on the Kona side of the Big Island. This was our first trip to Hawaii, and it was a great choice for meeting up with friends from Europe. The accommodations were comfortable, well-appointed, and provided everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The views from both lanais were beautiful, especially during the sunsets, which were a highlight of our evenings. The property was clean, and the property management team was helpful and quick to respond whenever we had questions. This home made a great base for exploring the Big Island, and we left with many wonderful memories. Thank you for hosting us and helping make our first visit to Hawaii so enjoyable!

Amazing Vacation

We really enjoyed this property. From the quiet neighborhood to the amazing views. We were a large group and this house had room for everyone. Only ding ding was that the property description lists a queen bed downstairs but was actually a sofa-sleeper.

Great Vacation

The house was perfect for our stay. The kitchen was equipped and so were the bathrooms. There was no AC however all the fans around the house were great! The lanais were pleasant and the grill was a great help for cooking food. The house was awesome and the yard provides us some apple bananas and avocados!
