Beautiful house in the mountains close to Kona center

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was in great shape and the small issues we had Gordon resolved right away. Although our kids are older, the house was well set up for little kids.

Great for our family

This home was well equipped for our stay. We like to cook in and the kitchen had what we needed! The lanai and the views of the ocean and sunsets were really awesome. Location is a little interesting but you definitely feel like you're in the tropics with lots of birds and creatures making sounds in the night. The cow and the rooster added to the experience. Only complaint was the yapping dogs at the neighbors house. We also appreciated the beach gear - cooler, snorkeling gear, and boogie boards. Overall a very nice home and I would recommend it!

Enjoying Hawaii in Kona

Gordon’s house is a very good size for 6 people. The view and sunsets were delightful. We had everything we needed to have an enjoyable stay. I liked all the updated appliances. We would stay here again. My husband and I thought the beds were a little too soft but my daughter and husband had no complaints. We had trouble with a TV but there were three of them and two were sufficient for our enjoyment. Mehallo Gordon. The house is equally situated between Kona and some very nice beaches.

Perfect house with perfect location

I don’t even know where to begin as everything was exceptional and far surpassed our expectations. The house location was perfect as it was close to the heart of town yet felt as though we were in the country. We enjoyed over looking the pasture and greeting the goats each morning while picking fresh papayas off the tress that lined the driveway. The house was stocked with everything you would ever need from house items to beach items. The house was extremely clean and the beautiful decor was a bonus. We enjoyed BBQ on the deck each evening as we had a panoramic view of the ocean with the most beautiful sunsets. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. We are already planning a return trip in a few months and will be renting this house again and booking some fishing trips with captain Shawn!

Aloha

Amazing house. Either new construction or newly remodeled. Great view of the ocean and sunset. Papaya trees ripe for the picking on the property. Sleeping accomodations were sooo comfortable. The kitchen was clean and spacious with plenty of seating for the whole family. Anything needed for food preparation was there. In-unit laundry was a big plus. The fans and elevation kept the house comfortable at all times. Snorkel gear, boogie boards and surf gear were there to use free of charge along with coolers and beach chairs. The living room was spacious, comfortable, and could sleep an extra ~3 people if necessary. The walk in closet in the master bedroom was ginormous and could sleep another person on the air matress (located in the kids bedroom closet) if needed. This was a really great property. The house owners live up the hill about 100 feet so if you need anything they're right there. It was very comfortable and honestly not a far drive from town-you'll appreciate the elevation when sleeping.

About the host

Hosted by Gordon Inscore

I am originally from Florida, but after the BP oil spill wrecked havoc on the commercial fishing industry, I decided it was time for a change. I moved to Kona in 2015 and began charter fishing. I thought my biggest catch to date was an 802 pound blue marlin, until I met my wife & sport photographer Kimberly. We enjoy working together, catching big game fish and capturing those adrenaline filled moments on our charters.

Why they chose this property

Why stay in a condominium, when you can stay in a brand new home? Located in a comfortable elevation with birds, nature and privacy. Yet still close to Kona town. All of the beds have comfortable mattresses. The pillows and beds are in sanitary slips, keeping them fresh and clean for each guest. If you are looking for a more tropical feel and appreciate peace and tranquility, you have come to the right place! Fruit trees and friendly animals are your neighbors. Yet your hosts are close by to assist with any of your needs.

What makes this property unique

You feel like you're in the country, but all the amenities are close by. Enjoy some fresh papaya, located throughout the property.

There is a security gate, you may close anytime, and exterior cameras for your added safety and peace of mind.
