About this property

B.I. Kohola Lani , Very private, Pool, Amazing Views! AC in bedrooms!

The first thing to greet you when you stroll in the front door of this six person home is the post-card worthy vista of the Pacific. The large covered lanai offers outdoor living with winter whale watching, year-round sunsets and panoramic views of the ocean and mountains. The private solar-heated pool is a perfect playground for children and adults alike. Fire up the BBQ to grill fresh island seafood purchased at the local fish market just a few miles down the road. Whether planning an intimate get-away or a family vacation, Kohola Lani’s family friendly rate make this a perfect locale to enjoy the Big Island.

Perfect Getaway

House was very clean, well appointed, and view was even better than pictured. Beds were comfy, showers good, and kitchen well stocked, and the view was amazing. As much as we enjoyed the daytime view, the stars at night might have been our favorite part. Sat outside with our teenage kids every night counting shooting stars - amazing!!

I'd love to give this place a bad review because then we can book it any time without worrying about it already being booked, but I just can't. This place was PERFECT for our family. The A/C in the bedrooms was lovely. The private pool was fantastic. The living space was great. The view was magical. The beds were super comfortable. We will definitely be back! Thank you for an awesome place to stay!

Amazing Big Island Adventures

This place was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived and found our personalized gift basket through the last picturesque sunset. The house and management delivered on every aspect. The house had everything we needed during our stay, from beach gear to seasonings. We will definitely be staying again on our next visit to the island!

Amazing Stay

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: The home was beautiful and the view was breathtaking. We spent a few nights stargazing from the pool deck and was able to see a lot of activity from in the sky. The location was perfect and the home layout worked well for our family. The only negative thing I have to say is it was a bit hot in the house, even with having a lot of fans running. If the home had A/C, it would be amazing!

Does not disappoint!!

5 stars is not enough! We walked into a clean and beautiful home to the sweet sounds of Hawaiian music. And then we saw the view!!! We watched whales for days from the lanai. We enjoyed finding a variety of dining experiences in Kawaihae. Don’t skip the art gallery located in the lower level of the marketplace. Waimea was perfect for grocery shopping. We went to a farmers market there on Saturday morning and it did not disappoint! Fresh caught fish, yummy bacon, garden fresh fruits and vegetables alongside beautiful artists and crafters. We will definitely check the availability of this home first when we plan our next visit to the Big Island!

Great house, gorgeous location

We had a small group of friends in town for a wedding and had such a lovely time at this rental. It was immaculately clean when we arrived and everything was just as listed. The gorgeous pool overlooking the ocean is absolutely the best part of the rental - and we enjoyed it every single day of our stay! The area is lovely and quiet but conveniently located to everything you’d need. It seems that recently the house was updated recent to include mini split air conditioning in each of the bedrooms - and this absolutely essential (and appreciated!) during our August visit! Once turned on, the bedrooms cooled down immediately. Our group commented daily on how great a find this rental was and how lucky we were to be staying there. Would recommend this property 100%

Wonderful place to spend Christmas!

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: Our family (kids ages 13 & 11) stayed for 10 days over Christmas 2022. The home met our expectations and then some. House was immaculate and well taken care of - it had all the amenities we could possibly need including a fully stocked kitchen. We bought fresh fish at the local fish market nearby and grilled several nights at home. We loved swimming in the pool and watching the sunset in the evenings - and yes, we could see whales in the distance. Would definitely stay here again & recommend to friends & family.

Quiet, Luxurious House

My wife and I spent a week at this fantastic property. If you are looking for a quiet place to get away from it all then this is it! Located off on its own, we almost felt like there was no one around for miles during our stay. We spent many an afternoon outside in the fabulous walk-in pool. The surrounding plush outdoor chairs are extrememly comfortable and a great place to read a book and/or take a nap. Every night we made a point to check out the sunset as well -- each was beautiful. The house itself was very cool with well placed ceiling fans as well as portable fans. It is also well stocked with abundant beach towels and bathroom towels. The bathrooms themselves had some wonderful walk in showers. Additionally, they even have a wine refrigerator -- which is very rare to find in a vacation rental and very appreciated on our part. 2 Papayas are very accomodating and want you to have the best time possible. Available 24 hours a day, the staff checked in on us from time to time with a friendly phone call to make sure there were no problems. When we first landed on the Big Island, they were even kind enough to offer us an early check in! Please note, you are off the beaten path here and will most likely need to drive at least 20 minutes to a grocery store for food and supplies as needed.

Truly Kohola Lani is off the beaten path but does have several restaurants, a boat harbor, dive shop, gallery and fresh fish market within a 10-minute drive of the home. If you, too, are looking for a quiet place to relax by the pool and watch incredible sunsets every night, this is the home for you, too.

It's spacious ands plenty of room for everyone. We've stayed at many houses in the neighborhood, but we love this because it sits low enough to see (and hear) the whales! We loved just sitting in the lanai and watching the scenery. We'll be back
