Holiday rentals with beach access in South Kona

Excellent location in Ali’li drive near magicsands beach . 3 minutes to walk to the beach. Everything we needed for our two days over Christmas was there. Rebecca was super helpful with information.

We really enjoyed our visit. The views were amazing and the location was ideal. Will definitely stay again in the future.

One of the best-supplied kitchens I've used. The bed was comfortable and I always appreciate find king sized bed.

The condo was as advertised-lots of beach things to use (chairs, umbrella, towels, sand toys), great kitchen with plenty of items for food prep, washer and dryer along with laundry pods available. Wi-fi worked very well to hook up multiple devices, and there were 2 televisions available as well. There was a pool, but it was across the street and did not always get full sun due to the surrounding buildings blocking the light. Overall it was a very pleasant stay!

My husband and I had a great time at the Pineapple Studio, we felt very comfortable and relaxed, it was a great home base for our time in Kona. The studio was clean, Yoko and her husband were super helpful and responsive, the amenities were perfect. It was exactly as described and even exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend

Spacious and well stocked Airbnb. Really nice touches with a few snacks and drinks provided and plenty of towels and kitchen amenities. The place is a bit dated but clean and the main bed was very comfortable. The pullout sofa in the living room is extremely uncomfortable if you’re planning to have anyone sleep there. I didn’t reach out to the host about it so maybe they could have provided a foam topper or something else for it. If you’re looking to have anyone sleep adults sleep out there I would check with the host to see if they can provide something to make it more comfortable since it was harder than a futon to sleep on. Overall good value for the price and convenient location.

We had an amazing stay! The apartment was so spacious, tastefully decorated and very clean. We loved watching the horses from the lanai and having Buddy the dog greet us everyday when we arrived back. We felt like we had the best spot on the island to watch the sunset. The sounds of the coqui frogs at sunset was absolutely amazing and so relaxing to fall asleep to. The kitchen was incredibly well equipped for self catering and it was really helpful having some things in the cupboards like spices, oil, syrup, etc. We were so sorry when it was time for us to leave!

Great great great location. Perfect for two people who needed a place to crash, have a slow morning, and a full day in town!

The home was well appointed. It was large, comfortable and the views were just amazing. Dvid was a great host and easily available for question. Overall a great stay.

Minh’s place is a treasure! The location looking over the ocean is breathtaking. We had the best sleep in months with the doors open and hearing the waves. Whales swam by a few times and walking to the beach was good exercise. I plan to return.

amazing location and the host was quick to respond with great recommendations! felt right at home perfect spot for a family getaway

This is our second stay at the Magic Shack. We came back because our first stay was awesome. Our second stay was even better. There were updates to the unit (new screen doors), the addition of a new nice sofa bed, and chargers on each bedside table. The kitchen is well stocked and we were actually able to cook and have breakfast and dinners every night. The location is convenient, next to Alii drive. 10/10, would stay here again for our next Big Island vacation!

We will rent this home again if we are back to the Big Island! We really enjoyed the different spaces. The interior was open concept and a great gathering space. The lanai porch was peaceful and very pleasant mornings and evenings. The outdoor shower and hot tub was a great space for small groups to gather.

My stay was great. The house was clean and cozy.

Loved getting to pick the oranges and having fresh squeezed orange juice in the morning and sitting out on the patio and enjoying the view. Also, eating the banana’s from the banana trees. It was a relaxing place to stay.

Megan’s house is absolutely breathtaking and has exceeded all expectations. We stay with airbnb a lot and this is one of the few times when the property was better than the pictures! Loved the well equipped kitchen and all of the cool art displayed throughout. The location is safe, peaceful and easy to get to places. Several great beaches within a walk or a very short drive. Our family absolutely loved it, and can’t wait to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at the Condo- The space was updated and ideal for the 2 of us. Comfortable furnishings, bed, and AC. The Lanai is right on the ocean facing west, amazing sunsets, waves and the rocks that tumble into the ocean are full of beautiful yellow tang fish. We even saw a full whale breach! Wendy provides all you need, Snorkle gear, boogie boards (great boogie board beach next door), lawn chairs, cooler and clubs for golfing. Kitchen is well stocked even with food containers and baggies, etc. no need to buy coffee filters, it’s a basket. She even starts you off with some Carmel roasted coffee if you’d like. The pool is lovely, there are grills for you to use. You can walk right into town with all the restaurants and shops. Wendy will give you ideas for where to Snorkle, eat, and tours. She’s extremely responsive and a delight! It was our 1st time on the Big Island and we hope to return!

...to plagiarize a comment I saw stated in another review: stop looking and book this place! This is the one! A+++ If you have found this option based on the criteria you think you need, there is likely no better place. The location is ideal. The view of the ocean & pool is incredible--the mesmerizing surf and scenery cannot be matched. A special note: This home provides three of the most comfortable beds that might exist within the Hawaiian Islands. Also--the front foyer is chock full of everything you need for beach fun... EVERYTHING...which was so helpful and reduced expense significantly. The efforts made by the host are very notable and appreciated. (I dig air conditioning--this place has it and it works wonderfully.) We hope to return to the Big Island and if we do this will be the first place we consider to stay again. This condo is close enough to anything and far enough away from everything--it will suit anyone...and really is a perfect vacation home. Mahalo!🤙😎

The attention to detail in this updated condo is apparent. It is appointed with guests in mind--USB charging stations, water play equipment, well stocked kitchen, cooler, containers and ice for picnics... The waterfront location was great even though this isn't an ocean-facing unit, it is in a location that other occupants aren't walking by the front door, which is nice. Although we didn't use the pool, it was a nice little feature and appeared very well-maintained. We used the AC both for cooling the bedroom and to blur the traffic noise from the busy street below. It did the trick for both!

I've been a little reluctant to write this review because I'd prefer to keep this unit a secret! :) Pros: Great location (easy walk to shops and small local beach right next door) Fantastic oceanfront view Being able to peer over the lanai and see how busy (or not busy, actually) the beach next door was was helpful Not a far walk to the pool or parking Pool was heated and not crowded at all Quiet atmosphere with an older crowd (40s-60s?) Fully stocked kitchen-- dishes, pots, pans, and seasonings! (we cooked everyday) Washer and dryer inside the unit (thank goodness) Beach equipment and toys in the closet Cons: Filter of bathroom ceiling vent needs to be replaced (which Marc said he's going to address) 23 steps up the stairs from underground parking if the elevator is out :( (not ideal for lugging alot of stuff from the car upon arrival) Unit is posted for the public and not a secret! lol TIP: 9 steps up the stairs from corner parking lot. We'll be back soon!

We really enjoyed the condo and the views were out of this world. The building was quiet, we never heard neighbors, and the building was upkept. We stayed for 8 days, frequently hauling loads of either groceries or "stuff" and were thankful that there was an elevator to assist in the frequent trips to the car. The car parking space is located beneath the building in the shade, which was very nice to not have to get into a hot car each day. The condo was very clean and there were lots of little extras provided. There were lots of options for borrowing snorkeling masks and goggles, swim fins and even a beach umbrella. We packed lunches every day and we were thankful for the cooler options allowing us to pack what we needed to keep cool. Listening to the waves at night outside the master bedroom was very peaceful. We would wake up early and watch the surfers out each morning in front of the condo. Very relaxing trip. Our host was very responsive to questions and we would go back!

We stayed here for 6 nights and it was great. It was well stocked with supplies for the beach, clean, well organized and in a perfect location. It is a nice, quiet complex close to everything but far enough away from downtown Kona that you still have peace. Multiple coffee shops, markets, and attractions close by. We highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxed, beautiful place to stay in Kona.

This was our 2nd stay here and we have already booked a return trip! The condo is clean, comfortable and so well stocked for inside and outside play! This location is fantastic! Snorkeling across the street is a treat! Fish counts and varieties were plentiful, and we saw turtles and octopus!! This trip we discovered Magic’s Beach Grill 1 mile away, enjoyed the walk to dinner and a view of the waves and turtles with a very good dinner!

What a great find!!! Marco’s condo is everything as advertised & more! Beautiful view, quiet, clean, great new appliances. Location is easily walkable to all of Ali’i Drive. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning, watching the paddlers, parasailers, and surfers. Complex has a fantastic pool & hot tub that are immaculately maintained. We miss it already!
