Hale Maluhia was the perfect vacation home for our family of 7. Our adult children had their own suites, which was ideal. The house was spacious and the lanai was perfect for enjoying meals and watching surfers, whales and dolphins. The kitchen was well stocked with spices and condiments. The pool was gorgeous and we used it every day. We especially appreciated all the beach gear (cooler, chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, etc.)! Mahalo!

This was such a nice house. My favorite part was sitting on the lanai looking for whales each morning. The house was very clean upon arrival and the instruction book was very helpful. The house offered lots of room for privacy with each sleeping area having their own bathroom/shower. The kitchen was very well stocked and the share pantry was nice too. We loved everything about this house (and the big island). *bonuses for our party were the cardinals that visited each day and the ukulele.

We loved our time at this gorgeous ocean front home. Everything from the time we arrived, to the day we checked out, was absolutely wonderful. The location was amazing, it is located between two fun beaches that are both within walking distance. One beach was fantastic for snorkeling and the other was a beautiful sandy swimming beach. The home comes equipped with water toys, beach chairs, noodles, beach towels and everything you need for a perfect day at the beach. During our time there we visited the volcano national park, Hilo, zip lined at Umauma falls and took an amazing whale watching tour on Body Glove…, not to mention all the whales, spinning dolphins and yellow fish we saw from their incredible lanai right at the house. We also bbq’d with their cool green egg and the food was so good. We HIGHLY recommend this vacation house. You will not be disappointed. We are already looking at dates so we can book it again next year!!!

The snorkeling and beach spots we read about in guidebooks were within blocks of this place. Decor was great for a vacation mood. We appreciated the MANY high-powered fans they had for every room. I doubt you can sleep closer to waves at any other property, so we slept great.

Perfect Location for a Kona Vacation

Three families shared this beautiful home on the ocean, which was perfectly located for spearfishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, boogie boarding, local dining experiences, amazing sunsets, tours of the island. When we return, we will definitely stay here again. The owners provided access to all of the beach essentials like chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards. They even had access to a minivan.

Honeymoon in Paradise!!

Such an amazing week!! After a full week of resort life in Maui, we chose to relax in Hawaii in this gorgeous fully stocked home. It was amazing to enjoy a full kitchen and multiple grills to cook our own food, private pool, and incredibly spacious separate living spaces. We met gracious locals and found our happy place. It was so hard to leave. Do not think twice about booking this house, it made our dream of living on the water a reality, even if just for a small amount of time!

Once in a Lifetime experience

Teri the host, was amazing - so helpful and responsive. The house was gorgeous, and their attention to detail was impressive. The location was amazing - every day was like a wildlife show a few hundred yards in the ocean bay. Pods of 30-40 Dolphins went by every day. We saw humpback whales almost every day breaching. The ocean waves coming in right to the shore of the house made it seem like you were in the ocean. We are coming back and going to stay at this house again for sure.

:Power of the Sea

This was an amazing place to witness a series of winter storms come through. From the waves crashing, thunder booming, raindrops pelting, and wind whistling, we felt snug and cozy in the house during the storms. Since the seas were rough, we were unable to do much swimming or snorkeling but enjoyed relaxing in the house. It's well-stocked and the three separate units are wonderful for larger mixed groups. Teri was a very communicative and knowledgeable host. We would recommend the house to friends and family.

Dream vacation house in Kona paradise

The accommodations met our expectations. My husband and friends were totally pleased with the house. It has everything you need and more. Games, books, rain ponchos, etc... The kitchen is fully equipped. We cooked our Thanksgiving dinner (beautiful dishes, glassware, a variety of pots/pans, Tupperware containers for leftovers...even the knives were sharp). Good quality furniture and furnishings. Decor tastefully done. The closeness to the ocean is such a plus - we loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves. During the stay we were treated to a dolphin show which we were able to watch from the lanai. The pool and jacuzzi were set for perfect temperatures. Highly highly recommend this house.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We came to celebrate our 30th anniversary with our adult kids. This house was perfect - everybody had their own separate space to stay. The house is very well appointed with everything you need. We started our day on the huge lanai watching the kayakers & waves. While we were there we saw dolphins, a manta ray family swimming down close to the shoreline & there are eels that live under the rocks that you are able to see when the tide is out! You can also see the colorful fish in the waves as they come crashing in. It was amazing. The stunning sunsets every night were incredible. I could go on and on.. thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home💗

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: Absolutely loved our stay on the Big Island, and this house had a lot to do with that! Perfect for our 3 generation family— everyone had their own private space with beautiful, comfortable accommodations. It was so relaxing falling asleep to the sound do the ocean out the window every night! We loved the huge lanai with ocean views,sunsets and rainbows, the pool and spa were perfect for afternoons after island excursions, and the location of the house was excellent for exploring Kona. We also made two trips to the other side of the island (Volcanoes Nat’l Park one day and a trip to Hilo another) and the drive east wasn’t so bad either! The property was exactly as described, very clean and well stocked with pantry supplies as well as beach and pool equipment! We were a 3 minute drive from the Magic Sands Beach (and beach bar!) which was amazing for swimming and spotting turtles and colorful reef fish! I would 100% stay here again, this little slice of paradise was the perfect stay for our Hawai’i vacation!

Wonderful vacation home!

We were very happy with our five night stay in this beautiful home! We stayed here with our friends which made a total of 8 people; 4 adults and 4 children. There was so much room for all of us to spread out! The kids loved staying in the downstairs bedroom! There was also everything we needed at the house; washer, dryer, coffepot, dishes, snorkel equipment and boogie boards, to name a few! The pool and deck area were absolutely amazing! We had a hard time getting the kids to leave the house everyday because they loved the pool so much!! The house was located close to beaches, restaurants and shopping. We found the house to be very clean and had plenty of bath and beach towels for all of us. The owner even had the local property manager meet us at the house to show us specifics of the house and pool! We only had one minor issue and that was the sliding screen doors. The doors were hard to open and close and would become stuck sometimes. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone of my friends or family! We would stay at this house if we're lucky enough to visit Hawaii again.
