Keauhou Retreat- Relax in Paradise Secluded Airy Ocean View, 2 Lanais

This property is the epitome of a relaxing Hawaiian retreat! Set among 5 acres of lush gardens it has the solitude and privacy of a gated community. Everything you need is right at your door, and yet close enough to get into Kona if you would like. Keauhou Shopping Center is a few blocks away with an excellent market, a handful of restaurants, and even a movie theater. Minutes away from two of the best snorkeling lava entry locations on the island (Two Step and Captain Cook), but feels like you are in a remote quiet location. The hosts provide everything except your bathing suits, a few summer clothes, and sun block! If you want to wake up to the gentle sound of tropical birds and the smell of plumeria, stay here as long as you can!

Everything you need to feel right at home - from a full fledged kitchen to a large washer/dryer to beach towels/chairs/gear and everything in between. Closeness to the fantastic Kalahuaa beach (one of the best beginner snorkel spots on the Big Island) - less than 5 minutes, and Kona Downtown - about 10 mins. Serene property in a very nice neighborhood - surrounded by tropical trees and a golf course. Highly recommended.

The Keauhou Retreat was lovely and provided everything we needed for our stay in the Kona area. The condo is well appointed and has 2 beautiful lanais. We spent lots of time on the upper lanai watching the birds and the geckos and enjoying the sunshine. Thank you for sharing your Hawaiian home with us.

Enjoyed our stay at Keauhou Resort and Miriam's and condo. Nicely decorated with Hawaiian themes and well equipped with items for cooking, picnicing and enjoying the beach. The grounds and gardens are beautiful and well maintained. We hope to return.

The condo has a stunning view from the balcony where we had breakfast in the morning and watched the sunset in the afternoons.

The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. There was also everything you need for a day at the beach except we found that one snorkel set was incomplete. We informed the owner who said she will replace it. Great to also have your own parking spot right out the front of the apartment.

Our first night there was very steamy and we were worried about being able to sleep but once you get everything open with the cross breezes and the fan above the bed it was comfortable.

The location was great to explore the south and north of the west coast. The shops are just 5 min away to grab some groceries or have a bite to eat. Highly recommend Los Habeneros, the Mexican restaurant, in the Keauhou Shopping area for a meal.

We would definitely recommend this apartment.
