Honu Ohana - walk to White Sands
The apartment was well-appointed with every amenity needed for a pleasant stay. Very clean and comfortable. Quiet and secluded yet walking distance to two beautiful beaches and close to nice restaurants. Liz was very quick to respond to questions and very helpful.

Kona-Amazing sunset, Ocean/POOL/AC/Great loc
It’s conveniently located close to the airport. Easy check in/out. We also appreciated being able to do some laundry. Thanks Ania and John!

Our Sun Spot
Our family had the most unforgettable stay at this beautiful home on the Big Island! From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and completely at ease. The house was spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need — from beach towels and snorkeling gear to a fully equipped kitchen perfect for family meals. Waking up to the sounds of nature and enjoying coffee with a view each morning was pure magic. The location was ideal — close enough to explore beaches, and local spots, yet peaceful and private enough to feel like a true retreat. Our hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, offering great recommendations and making sure our stay was seamless. We created memories here that our family will cherish forever. If you’re looking for a home away from home in paradise, this is it! Mahalo for everything — we can’t wait to return!

☀ Private Garden w/ Ocean Views → Green Sands ☀
I had a comfortable stay. I loved the local bread and produce in the kitchen. Avocado toast with banana and papaya was amazing sitting on the front lanai. The bed was quite relaxing with lots of soothing pillows for a perfectly restful sleep.

Country Petite Retreat, AMAZING view, fresh fruit
We had a great stay at Lorelle Petite Retreat apartment. We loved the location being on the hill; it was nice, cool and tranquil. The space was clean and well shocked. Lorelle is a very generous, friendly person.We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation.

Honu Hale
Would certainly stay again. Well-located home base near Kona, close to everything but outside the main hustle and bustle. Easy checkin. A few other reviewers mentioned some loud neighbors - I experienced nothing like that. Place was just as described and perfect for my needs. Thanks!

Hale Sakai - Close to Kona Airport!
I loved my stay at Francesca's place. It's located very close to the airport and easy to find, which was a huge relief after a long day of travel. The spot itself is very comfortable, quiet, and peaceful. The dedicated parking spot and laundry available were also very convenient for my 2 week stay. Highly recommend and would stay again

Living On Aloha! In Oceanview, Hawaii
exactly what we expected and super friendly. I would stay here every time I come to the Big Island.
Self-Contained Unit with a patio

Studio apartment with sweeping ocean views
The air bnb was absolutely amazing. It was equipped with everything you will need to cook and the pictures don't do the view justice. It was better than we could have imagined and Amanda was very quick with answering any questions we had. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back.

Ancient Trail Ohana
I can't say enough about how great this place is. It's beautiful, inside and out. It's actually the nicest Airbnb we've ever stayed at. Really, everything is top-notch, down to the products Jennifer uses, the availability of laundry facilities, and the friendliness of the host. Jennifer was so accommodating, bringing us veggies and fruit from the garden, and even bringing us something we left behind to the next place we were staying in town. I was a little intimidated by the steep driveway at first, and I wouldn't recommend showing up for the first time after dark, but I quickly adapted. The place is so quiet and peaceful, and I would say the pictures on the website don't even capture how lovely it is. I would definitely stay here again if we're fortunate enough to return to the Big Island.

1 BR in Paradise w/private Bath, 20 min to beach!
We enjoyed our stay at Debby’s! We will definitely book again when we visit Naalehu!

1-Bedroom Suite with Private Pool and Garden Lanai
I am so glad to have found this wonderful poolside bungalow for my long weekend. It’s tugged away in a little corner of this island paradise in a quiet neighborhood. Self check-in was quick and easy. The room was spotless clean, very comfortable and well thought out. There is even a water cooler/dispenser by the pool which, by the way, is for my exclusive use and made the place even more special. James & Rocky were warm and welcoming without being intrusive. James came by with a very nice welcome treat and that was the last time I saw anyone during my stay, though I knew they were right there if I ever needed anything. Internet was OK when it worked but be ready for the occasional spinning icons. But then, who cares?! I was supposed to be unplugged in this perfect get-away hideout. Mahalo nui, James and Rocky.

Best OCEAN VIEWS! Modern, Private Studio w/Laundry
Lou and Kami are wonderful hosts and the place is amazing. It's even better than the photos showed, and we felt right at home. Everything was clean, cute style, and designed with guests in mind. The view from the lanai was amazing no matter what type of weather, and we really enjoyed our little bird friends!! They were very responsive and kind people, and we'd love to stay there again! Make sure you check out their book of recommendations, everything in there is amazing!!

Hot Tub Studio Green/Black Sands South Point HVNP
Nancy and Bob were so welcoming. She greeted us when we checked in despite our late arrival. Throughout our stay, she and Bob kept us updated with the best local recommendations and happenings in the area, such as restaurant recommendations, local farmers markets, and even updated us about active lava flow! Nancy and Bob are a warm, welcoming couple. Their place is in such a peaceful, secluded location away from the main road. Highly recommend!

Safe Harbor Kona- stunning large one bedroom
We had a great stay at Ruth’s place - it was clean, quiet, and centrally located for us to explore the island. Ruth had equipped the place with everything you might need - from cooking appliances, tea and coffee, to beach towels and chairs. We had a lovely time and will plan to stay again next time we vacation in the Kona area!

The Grotto
Mary was an amazing host. Her property was immaculate and much larger than I anticipated. We had plenty of room for my family and felt very comfortable. The neighborhood is safe and we were able to sleep with the windows and sliding door open for the fresh cool air. Having two bathrooms was a huge plus and there was a washer and dryer as well. Top notch service from our host who went above and beyond for us. I loved all the attention to detail. There were nice ceiling fans in each room. Plenty of towels and wash rags. One of the most thought out rentals I have stayed in. I would highly recommend Mary’s place to stay if you’re on the Big Island. Mahalo Mary, for your hospitality!

Good Vibes Ohana
Absolutely amazing property and space! Would highly recommend to anybody coming to Kona, without hesitation. Extremely safe feeling, peaceful, and within quick driving distance to most things on the Kona side of the island. Great hosts who were always very responsive. Will gladly stay here again when back on the island.

Puako Paradise
The location was perfect for my husband and I. We loved the quiet and the access to the amazing tide pools. Close to all the activities we wanted to do but in a private, peaceful neighborhood. Looking forward to visiting again!

One bedroom suite, private pool and ocean views.
This property is a hidden gem. We spent 5 glorious, magical nights here. Our host, Paul was welcoming and you can tell he really cares that his guests have what they need. The space is wonderful. We only needed the ac once when there was no wind. The other times you only need the tradewinds. We really enjoyed moving from space to space when it was too hot or too windy. Whatever we were doing for the day, we looked forward to coming back to this place and settling in as we watched the sunset. If you’re lucky enough to get a reservation, do it. You won’t be sorry.

JUNGALiCiOUS! A Totally Tropical Bungalow!
Kona Mountain Refuge was absolutely amazing we really enjoyed our time here. Beautiful view overlooking the stars, the views were incredible! Beautiful kitchen, comfortable bed. They had all amenities for a beach, chairs, umbrella, snorkeling, after sun care. Beautiful stay on the Kona side thank you so much!!

Walk to Magic Sands Beach! Prime location
My family and I stayed at Nohea’s place for one night, but I wish we were able to stay longer. Her place was very beautiful and exactly as pictured. My family and I felt very comfortable. Nohea was quick to answer my questions and she was able to accommodate my early check in request. Her home is so beautiful and I’m very thankful she allowed my family and I to stay there. Next time I head out to Kailua Kona I will definitely be booking to stay here again. Check in and check out process was seamless and it is so easy to find.

✦KONA HAWAIIAN RESORT✦ 2 Bedroom Deluxe Suite!
As a family of three, we found this place comf, The pool was a nice place to cool off at the end of a hot day. We loved the Lanai and grilled some steaks one night on the common area grill. The Aloha vibe was the best part with friendly staff and tropical bird sounds. Mahalo for many our stay so special!

Honu Bungalow At Pakalana Sanctuary
Awesome place to stay! Entire place is bamboo which is super unique. I will be back to stay at this place again soon!

Quiet 3 bedroom home with amazing ocean views
The house was great, and the views were amazing! The co-hosts were awesome also! It’s an hour drive to Kona, which isn’t terrible and an hour and a half to the volcano. Plenty to look at and do in the area, and I would definitely recommend this beautiful home
