Enjoyed our stay at the Tranquil Whale

We have been to the Big Island many time before so for us this was a vacation for rest and relaxation. And the Tranquil Whale was the perfect place! Beautiful ocean view, weather was perfect warm days and cool nights. The property is well kept and has all the modern updates including the pool. If you are looking to get away for some R&R this is the place.

The house and the environment is perfect. The only bad thing were the bugs on the deck, so that we haven’t spend any second on the deck.

Great Big Island hideaway

The property is lovely with stunning views. The owners have amazing attention to detail. Love the spa shower and the screened outdoor "oasis". So grateful for all of the items the owners provide such as bottled water dispensers, spices, multiple coffee makers, laundry and dish soap... too much to mention! Highly recommend this home.

Vacation Paradise

The home is everything we expected… away from traffic and tourists! Perfect for a couple! Sunsets were awesome! The home was very clean, and beds very comfortable. 30 miles south of Kona. So expect an hour drive to town. Great location to drive north or south when visiting the entire island. Our 10 day stay was just right!

A nice week in Hawaii

The stay was nice. We wouldn't stay in the home again primarily because of the road leading to it. I wish I had done a little more research in to that prior to booking. Thank you, Monica

Beautiful views and clean property

This house has amazing views and was very clean. The neighborhood was quiet. I think we underestimated the drive from the highway to the property; it was pretty steep and winding and took us about 15 minutes to get down to the house and maybe 10 minutes to get back out. We got used to it though. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great house!

This is a great spot, with lots of little tucked away spots. There is a lanai, a pool, several little table/chair spots, and an upstairs loft. This was a perfect spot with kids, as the pool makes for an easy distraction and a nice cool-off for everyone. Gorgeous ocean view. The things to consider are that there are not a lot of resources nearby. It's 20 minutes or so to the main road, and another 15-20 to the closest stores. The terrain around this neighborhood is a lava flow, so the main attraction of the view is the very wide view of the ocean. It's a pretty amazing ocean view, and we had really gorgeous sunsets. It was a really nice kitchen to cook in, and we really enjoyed ourselves.

Expect a 10 minute drive down a windy road from the main highway

For this visit, we wanted to stay more to the south so we could explore that area and Volcanoes (1.5 hr.). Kona is about an hours drive north. No restaurants or groceries close by but well-stocked kitchen and bath. Just purchase groceries before arriving. Great to have a W/D. Outdoor shower was good and private. Bed has topper that was a bit too soft for our liking. Warm in the evenings if no trade-winds but lots of fans to somewhat help out. Mid-80's when we visited in early October. Would suggest a second key with one left in the lockbox in case the primary key is misplaced. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the Round House although a bit disappointed that the view to the ocean included a hodgepodge of so many houses. Did enjoy the sunsets though...

Loved the stay

The house is out further from town which was exactly what we wanted! The neighborhood was quiet and had a beautiful view of the ocean and the hills. The pool was perfect! It has a good bit of shade to get of the sun and the heat. Would love to stay here again!!! Be prepared for mosquitos. We got ate up the first day. Went and got bug spray and we were good the rest of the trip.

Enjoyed our stay!

As advertised: well kept up, easy to contact owner for one minor problem (power-on glitch, I think), amazing interior decorating...see to believe, automatic outdoor lighting surprised us when it came on, considerable outside seating, separate screened outside seating area w/hammock, all appliances worked, some spices, etc. supplied. Light pool upkeep requested...no problem, interesting view...guess you'd say we enjoyed ourselves.! Info to owners: Road to house was repaved and slightly widened while we were there. Road machinery operators were easy to deal with.

Oh the sunsets!

The only hiccup was not getting information from Craig regarding key access and didn't have any reception to contact upon arrival. But we are still in paradise and eventually it all worked out. We couldn't have asked for a better accommodation. The house and property are beautiful and welcoming. The perfect place to unwind after exploring the island and watching sunsets.

Paradise

Anticipate the long way down on a windy (paved) road passing farms and overlooking the ocean. Would recommend arriving with daylight. Very close to Miloli'i Beach park which is a small pristine patch of sand + volcano rock beach. Stock up on food before going, there aren't many nearby spots (closest food ~30 minutes any direction). Very nice house with fully stocked kitchen, many fans and seating areas. Awesome pool + grill and outdoor lenai. Mesmerizing sunsets every night, watch the sun sink into the Pacific. House is located on old lava flow and can see this clearly in the surrounding areas. Mosquitos come out at sundown, and there is no AC if you're wondering. House somewhat isolated but is nicely situated between Kona and Volcanos. Me and my girlfriend had an amazing time exploring the Island from this location. Top reco would be Miloli'i beach park but be respectful! Other highlights include beautiful ocean views from pool/house, Coffee man at beginning of road, Geckos everywhere, isolated feel, awesome kitchen

Beautiful

First, stock up in Kona—there are no stores near the house, and the closest is WAY overpriced ($10 for half a gallon of orange juice). Once you're off the main road, the road to the property is narrow and curvy, but you get used to it after you drive it a few times. The house was tidy, comfortable, and well-stocked, and the view was amazing. Make sure to venture down to the beach by the house—we had it all to ourselves and watched giant waves crashing onto the rocks—it was pure magic. We'd recommend the house to anyone who wants an authentic experience of the Big Island that you can't get at a resort.

Relaxing Getaway

We had a wonderful vacation. The house was the perfect size for our family of 4. Spent mornings watching the beautiful sunset and evenings out in the screened in porch watching the sunset. Our kids said their favorite part was the pool. The house has everything you need to go to the beach. We also enjoyed watching the geckos run around on the deck. We would love to come back again.
