A Kona Paradise with Stunning Views and Vibrant Nature

We had an amazing stay at this wonderful Kona Paradise in Hawaii. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely welcomed and at home. The house itself was cozy and well-designed, offering the perfect space to relax. The kitchen was a standout—extremely well-equipped with everything I needed to cook and feel right at home. The yard was a tropical paradise, filled with a beautiful array of plants, which really added to the overall charm of the place. We especially loved how serene it was, and at night, the sounds of the birds singing created a peaceful atmosphere. It was truly a slice of paradise! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway.

Incredible location and views!

We really enjoyed our stay in Captain Cook. The gardens and views from the deck were absolutely amazing. Felt right at home. Loved hearing the birds chirping and walking thru your gardens. Communication with owner was very good. Beds were comfortable and home had all the supplies we needed. Our family hiked the pebble beach trail nearby and the views were just amazing. Important to drive down though to pebble beach and not attempt to walk as the hike back up the hill is challenging. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and artwork with our family!

Excellent house on a slope

Great house! Excellent ocean view in a secluded area of South Kona. House is old but clean. Has everything we need for our family to cook, relax, snorkel. Very steep slope to walk back to the house from the beach below so make sure you drive.Host is amazing and always checking in to make sure we have everything we need.Location is a bit remote, grocery store is 20 minutes by car.But in general we enjoy our stay.

Supportive owners

Owners were incredibly responsive and helpful. Good directions to find property and lots of signs in house with instructions. Nice house, as described. Wonderful views from deck, though have your bug spray handy. Research the location as it is a drive to anywhere and if comfortable with that it is a good place to be. Local beach (black lava shingle - shoes required) is close but drive to it unless you are into hill climbing. An abundance of geckos around property; fun but occasionally messy. No BBQ. Trash/recycling a couple of miles away and easy to navigate.

Absolute Paradise!

As amazing as the photos on this listing are, they don't even really do justice to how spectacular it is. The view is as good as you can find anywhere in Hawaii, and we watched sunset every evening from the lanai. Easy access to lots of beaches without ever needing to go into Kona.

A very relaxing place to stay

The home is very well equipped and exceptionally well decorated with a variety of original artwork. It feels like a home rather than a rental. The on-site (downstairs) caretaker, Vee, is very caring and helpful without being intrusive. This was a very relaxing place to stay.

Fabulous 50th with Stunning Views

We came to celebrate my 50th birthday in style & stayed for 10 nights. Overall the house is very nice, with beautiful surrounding gardens and views that go on forever. Sitting on the porch with either coffee or cocktail were exceptional. Michele & Ron were quick to communicate as well. Some minor things we felt could have been better but in no way diminished the trip (Just suggestions). 1. Visitors should understand the beach is quite a ways down the VERY steep hill side. 2. Consideration of length of stay should be given to having enough trash bags for guests. The 2 or 3 trash bags we had were not enough for 4 adults staying for 10 nights. This also applied to toilet paper. Told to buy more after the initial rolls ran out was frustrating because it turns out there were new packages already in the house. 3. With the trash bag issue also came the inconvenience of needing to bring your trash to the disposal center which was only open 3 specific days during specific hours. Although this itself did not bother us, having no outside garbage can to keep trash in until we could bring it there was problematic because of critters gaining access to it. 4. Having a screen door on the front door would be fantastic! The cross breeze that entered every time we opened it was awesome however we did not leave it open because we did not want extra "guests" in someone else's home. Overall, the house is comfortable and a great place to stay.

Paradise Found

Amazing place to stay on the Big Island, set in a veritable Garden of Eden. Beautifully decorated, furnished, and hosted, the house is quiet, with beautiful ocean views and spectacular sunsets. We were lulled to sleep every night by Island breezes and the chirping of tree frogs. We loved every second of our stay and we would love to stay there again. Great location too.

Amazing views ! The house was perfect for our vacation, two couples 10 days.

The property was very well manicured and maintained, like our own private little hide away with all the trees and plants. It had everything anyone could ask for, well stocked kitchen with pots, pans, plates etc ! A grill for outdoor cooking, beach towels, snorkel gear, boogie boards, coolers etc !!!! Loved every minute of staying here. Would definitely recommend.

Kona Paradise is right!

We had an amazing stay at Kona Paradise. Just walking to the door makes you feel enveloped in aloha. Those 180 degree beach views were as advertised. Every night we were on the lanai watching the sunset. Love the sounds of nature throughout the day. Very comfortable, clean, great instructions and friendly assistance if we needed it (we didn't!). Beach gear (towels, water shoes, snorkel gear) available for use. Loved it!

Amazing Time in Paradise!

My husband and I recently stayed at Michele’s home in Hawaii and we had an amazing time! The home was exactly as listed, the amenities were plentiful (it had everything we needed), and the view of the ocean and sunsets from the deck is gorgeous. This neighborhood is a little quieter and slightly farther away from Kailua-Kona than others, but that’s exactly what we were looking for. I would definitely recommend Michele’s home to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful time on the island. Thanks again, Michele!

About the host

Hosted by Michele Croci

My husband and I love the ocean. We are both artists and have taken our home and turned it into an artistic getaway! We enjoy being in Hawaii and the Big Island, as it stills has the feeling of 'olde Hawaii,' and country. You will love the location and the smell of plumerias outside the bedroom windows. The blue warm ocean is perfect for swimming with much of the time sunny. We really love providing a wonderful vacation experience for our guests.

Why they chose this property

We bought this home as our retreat from the big city. We wanted a space where we could create and Ron, as a professional artist, could paint. So now Ron has created so many beautiful paintings that decorate this beautiful home. It makes it even more special for us.
We have alot of life around like geckos, that makes this property charming. Our little friends keep us company on the lanai!

What makes this property unique

You will enjoy the quiet and the privacy of the tropical gardens. The ocean and coastline view is 180 degree and you can see all the way down the coast on clear days! This is a very special property and we know you, your friends and family will enjoy all the great amenities, privacy and great beach location!! Everyone should know that we surrounded by a tropical environment and we have critters, like geckos around. Since we are surrounded by tropics, at times you can encounter our littles friends in the house. Geckos are completely harmless. And cute.
