Beautiful home

The home was beautiful and clean. Great location, and kids loved the pool. Only complaint was no AC, there’s generally a nice breeze but it was a little hot for sleeping, and the roosters and dogs woke us up early every day because we had the windows open.

Family Vacation to the Big Island

We stayed near Hilo for 4 days and Kona for 6 days. This was amazing place to stay, excellent amenities and location. We enjoyed snorkeling with manta rays, the submarine tour of the ocean bottom and deep sea fishing on Sea Baby III. Thoroughly enjoyed the awesome kitchen it made us feel at home for meals.

Wonderful fun filled days by the pool!

After 7 full days of driving the Big Island seeing all the sights, swimming with Mantas and eating Malasadas from Tex’s, we enjoyed 4 wonderful days laying by the pool at HALE LIO KAI. The hot tub was divine. Beds were comfortable, sunsets so beautiful! Highly recommended.

We left three large fans we purchased from Walmart at the location.

An incredible home with beautiful views

We were very impressed with this incredible home. It had everything our family of three needed, from a very well appointed kitchen to space to spread out to a great pool and hot tub.The neighborhood was quiet and we felt secluded on a mountainside with a view of the ocean. We watched the sunrise enjoying the sounds of nature and watched the sunset from the hot tub. The home is close to several grocery stores and downtown Kona, and it was easy to zip to other places on the island to explore.The home is well decorated, comfortable and clean.Thank you for an incredible place to call home during our trip!

Kona Hillside

This location is convenient especially to the airport. The sunset view is definitely the best feature of this . The layout of the house is a bit awkward as the only way to access the pool or hot tub is through the downstairs bathrooms. The saltwater pool is refreshing. The beach gear is ok, good umbrella and chairs, the boogie boards worn out. Lots of dishes, pots and pans, many spices, no coffee or laundry soap, limited paper products. The upstairs lanai with the custom table definitely the place to hang out.

Holy WOW

Overview: this house was perfect for our week's stay in Kona. Our group had five people, and the house was big enough that we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. Plus, having a pool and hot tub already at the house is fantastic if you want a lazy day, which we took advantage of. There were several reviews regarding the lack of air conditioning and the chickens, but neither bothered our group. The only thing that did was the neighbor's dog, who would bark at all hours of the day. It made sitting outside by the pool not always as enjoyable. But overview, this place was excellent, and I would recommend this house to anyone staying in Kona.

Great View!

The place was sparkling clean and *extremely* well equipped. They even had toys and books, which my kids (ages 6-12) enjoyed a lot. The pool and tub were great, especially since all the nice beaches (at least those that we liked) are not close by. The best part was the view from the top balcony! The pictures on this site should have captured it better :) I’m happy to report that there was no noise from the airport and we mainly heard nature noises (birds, chickens, etc). The management company was *great*, extremely responsive and very helpful. My only advice: check with the managers on the availability of parking space if you plan to arrive with a big car or 2 cars.

Peaceful and Amazing Views

What a great home! The first night we got there we thought it might be an issue to not have AC as it was a bit warm but once we opened all the windows and let the amazing big island breeze blow through it was perfect. The house is in impeccable condition and wonderfully decorated. We enjoyed all the pictures and woodwork. You will not find a place with the kind of unobstructed views this house has. It’s sits high up on the mountain. While it’s conveniently located to the airport you don’t hear any of the airline traffic. The pool is gorgeous and immaculately maintained as was the hot tub. My only suggestion would be to add another seating option in the living room aside from the dining chairs. The nature sounds and the roosters were just an added reminder of the paradise we were in. The property managers were great and the app my it super easy to check in and check out. Thanks again. We will look to rent it again for sure!!!

Great stay in paradise!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home with a amazing view of the ocean. We enjoyed sunsets every night from the deck. The home was very clean inside and out, had high quality furniture, and a comfortable master bed. The kitchen was stocked with a wide variety of cookware and spices. While it was pretty warm during our visit, every window had screens on it and each room had an overhead fan to cool down. The pool was great and we loved that it was saltwater. The property felt private even though it was in a neighborhood. There were wild chickens roaming the property, a lot of birds, and other wildlife. It really felt as if we were in a tropical paradise. The home had several helpful resources and a guidebook they enhanced our experience on the island. It was an amazing stay and we hope to return! I cannot say enough great things about our experience.

Perfect Location..

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I had a wonderful stay at this house. It is in the perfect location to get around the island. The house is nicely decorated and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked well enough to cook meals at the house. We did contact the management company a couple times during our stay and they were quick to deal with our requests. While there were a couple of coolers it would have also been nice to have a thermos to take to the beach. The house did have pool/beach towels but I think it may be time to replace them. It also may be time to replace the umbrella by the pool as with all the rips and tears its not really usable. The house does not have A/C but this was not a problem for us since we were there in March. We had the windows open the entire time and the house stay cool enough. The roosters that live around the house wake up very early so I would suggest bringing EARPLUGS if you want to be able to stay asleep! All in all we enjoyed our time and would definitely stay at this house again.

hawaiian ohana perfection

where to begin.we live on oahu, need to get off the island to some peace and nature.this place does not disappoint. Immaculate, beautifully decorated, amenities plentiful, kitchen fully stocked, pool perfection-chilly to refresh. if you want to complain and need a heated pool go to a resort. this is perfect to wake up the senses. Mix it up with a hot tub to pool dips, great for the mind and body. Long talks with the chickens, geckos, ?baby chicks, dog next door that is perched on the railings guarding us, ?pigs not sure but sure made up some stories in our heads of the festivities going on in the backyard. Wonderful staff and response time. So much aloha and spirit in this house, cozy and filled up our souls. Be bopped around the island from this home and dug our toes into the sand at magic beach. fabulous cocktails here and the fish tacos are best we have had and thats hard pressed to say living on oahu. Played with the fishes at two steps as usual does not disappoint. We rode to top of mauna kea to watch the powerful and mighty sun go down again and we thanked her for her warmness. We stayed and were immersed in the stars and milky way. sheesh so few words were spoken. Laid on the roof of the car and just were quiet. Ate local, shopped at small venues and just were excited to go back home to this place to enjoy each other and cook out. This place is outstanding for everyone. Thank you for sharing your ohana with us, now back to our small 700sq foot studio in oahu,
