  Our family stayed at Barbara's in Kona in January. The facilities were just as advertised and are even nicer than pictured. We found the accomodations so wonderful that we hesitated leaving and seeing the sites that we had been planning to visit for many a year. The rooms were spotless and Barbara took joy in answering our questions. We would not hesitate to return and enjoy all the wonders of the big island again. Every visitor should see Volcanos National Park, the coffee growers and the observatories on the mountain but leave plenty of time to explore on your own.........Aloha from Chicago

  My husband and son had a great stay over the holidays at this beautiful Kona home! Package B offered the perfect sized accommodations for our family with one older child. The pool was a hit! It was incredible to be able to sleep in and walk out the french doors to have Kona coffee on the lanai with amazing ocean views! Our hostess was perfect, there for us when we had questions but not intruding. She was kind enough to have muffins and juice for us on the morning after our arrival so we wouldn't go hungry and was thoughtful to include little holiday touches too! This home is convenient to both Kailua and Kona attractions and a perfect stay to come back to after a day on the beach or sightseeing. The full kitchen was a plus too and we BBQ almost every night with dinner on the lanai + awesome Hawaii sunsets. We loved the Turkeys too! Thank you, we hope to make it back sometime in the future.

  This house was perfect for having 2 couples sharing a house. The setting was fantastic with great ocean and sunset views. The photos on this site were accurate pictures of house and views. The kitchen was situated so that you were part of the party and views while preparing meals. Barbara was the perfect host and we arrived to beautiful flowers in each room and was a wealth of information when we requested recommendations. The central location of the house made it easy to go into Kailua for dinner or beach or up the coast to Kohala. Proximity to Safeway and Costco was great for food supplies. We absolutely loved it and will recommend this house to our friends and family. Thank you Barbara and hope to see you again in the future.

  This was our first trip to Hawaii and a special time for our family to get together. We did a lot of research before selecting this location. It was our DREAM COME TRUE. The property was exactly as described. We were welcomed with fresh flowers, local candy & coffee - Barbara was the best and most gracious hostess ever. The house and attached suite were PERFECT! Everything was very clean with lots of great amenities. We were able to visit very different nearby beaches, lots of shopping available, and a variety of activities within the area. We had two small children with us that will remember this trip forever. From young to old, we all had the "time of our lives". There is no accurate description that could capture the beautiful view and breathtaking sunsets that we witnessed from the deck and infinity pool. The full kitchen and very comfortable accommodations made this a very affordable and enjoyable vacation. I would (and have) highly recommended this property to friends and family...and we most definitely will go back and revisit this paradise which brought us so much fun, joy, peace, serenity, beauty, privacy, comfort, relaxation, and satisfaction. WE absolutely LOVED it!

  We spend an amazing week in Kona.The place was clean, had everything promised on the site and more. The owner was very helpful and gracious host. I have recommended the property to my family and friends and would come back next year. The location is great, close to the beach and mostly anywhere you want to go. Listening to the birds in the morning was amazing. Very quiet and for rest and enjoyment. Aloha and Mahalo

  I am a very particular woman. I travel a lot for work, but decided to rent a vacation home for a family vacation. This was my first time using VRBO and I'm so glad I did. Ms. Barbara's villa is simple, elegant and very clean. It was tastefully decorated, the pool and view was gorgeous and the privacy was priceless. We used both rooms which I highly recommend for parties traveling together. In the main room (bedroom, living room, large bathroom, large walk-in closet, kitchen) was me, my husband and 8-month old and in the second room (has kitchenette, fridge, bathroom, closet & sitting area) was my mother and toddler. Both rooms has an superb view of the pool and ocean. That view is boss!! As a mother of two, I appreciated the house and pool toys. The house was in a great location to see a bunch of stuff in the area, but it's also great to just chill and have some quiet time with your thoughts and nature. Truly loved the experience. I would recommend any friend who is coming to visit Kona area to come and stay. It's exactly as pictured on site. And all the positive reviews are accurate.

  This is a remarkable property if you just want to get away and enjoy the spectacular view of the ocean and sunset. Everything about the accomodations is comfortable. We didn't spend much time on the Big Island, but we'd come back and make this our "home" for a week's stay, enjoying the pool and deck more, and maybe cooking an occassional meal. The Hostess and property owner is a delight. She gave us outstanding recommendations for dining, some touristy, others, local favorites. Stay here. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

  We just returned from Kona Ocean View and are already planning our trip back! The photos are exactly what you get - a great suite with a kitchen & living area + bedroom suitable for a family of 4-6 (and grandparents if the extended bedroom/washroom are booked). The unit is very clean and well appointed with everything you would need for a visit to the Big Island. The pool is amazing with an unbelievable view of the Pacific Ocean. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a BBQ on the deck. We had dinner outside every night (covered eating area) and enjoyed a slightly different sunset each night for two weeks. The internet is a very fast connection -- much faster than any hotel wifi -- for anyone with YouTube-watching kids. One great feature of her location is the elevation - we found the air to be cooler and cleaner than along Alii Drive. It was very nice to return home every night away from the noise and traffic of the busy ocean road. Finally - Barbara is a gracious host with a lot of tips for first-timers to the Big Island. She pointed us to great snorkel spots, a wonderful boat trip and even the Dolphin Quest experience in Waikoloa. We would recommend this without hesitation to anyone looking for a place to stay in Kona.

  Our stay at the Ocean view villa was very relaxing. The pool was a great hit with our 4 and 7 year old, they swam everyday and actually became better swimmers over our 3 week vacation! Barabara has all the amenities for a perfect holiday, shes really thought of everything, from the pool toys to all the kitchen gagets to prepare dinner. The wild turkeys were a lovely bit of nature, along with all of the varieties of birds around the lanai. The view in the shower is something else! Thanks Barbara! we will see you again.

  We have been staying here for a week now. This is my third visit here and I love it more every time! The quiet, the view, the pool, the huge lanai, the well stocked kitchen-Like usual it is too soon to go home. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of towels for the pool. Barbara is a lovely hostess and a very gracious woman. If you don't stay here, your loss!
