Sublime lanais, gentle cradling breezes, outtasight views, splendid house and property. Very well equipped and loved house, vast rooms, well stocked kitchen, comes with beach toys and supplies, comfortable beds. Many thanks to the incredible property manager Candi who was upbeat, helpful, a super communicator and host!
A wonderful place...the views are beautiful!So much room for our family 8. Good location..short drive to Kona..alot of attractions and things to see in area..the kitchen was fully stocked and had everything we needed. The pool was great! Candi was very accomodating and checked to see if we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!
Maka Nui Estate is the perfect getaway headquarters for a larger family or multiple families. The views are breathtaking, there is plenty of space for everyone, lots to do for all ages.
We are so blessed to have had the opportunity to stay at Maka Nui! Everything you need is here. Great beach gear, comfortable rooms, lovely space, amazing kitchen, we all wish we could have stayed longer and can't wait to go back. Candi is lovely and available for anything you need. Just honest wonderful people. We had the best time!!!
This house was the perfect vacation home for our family of 9! It had everything we needed and more. The home is gorgeous, everything is updated beautifully and there is so much space. The caretaker Candi was very nice and helpful, making the check-in process smooth and easy. It was a vacation to remember for sure! We would definitely stay here again!
A spacious, beautiful home with a fantastic view from a screened veranda was our familyâs Christmas getaway. We also enjoyed the holiday decorations, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, swimming pool and the peaceful location. Our kids liked the nearby hiking and beaches.
Our second time staying here. Great location, it is quite rural but surprisingly central. There are groceries and restaurants just a few minutes away. It is close to snorkeling at Kahuluu Beach, a two Step, Kealakekua Bay and Hookena a beach. You do need vehicles to get to amenities and destinations. The property itself is gorgeous and caretaker Candi wonderful to deal with. The pool is a wonderful bonus. Perfect setup for an extended family getaway.
The moment we arrived we fell in love with the home! It was perfect has its for our group of 10 including grandchildren. Grandchildren had room to play, adults could escape to more private areas. Each bdr Has its own bath. The home was clean! Equipped with bigger boards and plenty of sand chairs. We all agreed this was our best family vacation yet. Candi greeted us when we arrived. We will be back!
The home and the property were wonderful. The view from the lanai is the crowning jewel. Our party of nine had a great week. I highly recommend this property.
We spent a week in the house with 6 adults and 3 children and it was wonderful! Tons of space for everyone and the kids loved the pool and all of the space outside to run around. We would definitely book again!
Beautiful location with wonderful ocean views. The home was perfect for our group with plenty of room. Kitchen was well equipped for preparing our dinners each night. Shopping nearby made it simple and affordable.
Candace was a great host.
The Maka Nui felt like home away from home. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. As others have mentioned, Candi is great, very friendly and laid back. I would highly recommend this house.
The house was perfect for our group. Thereâs plenty of room for a large group and we loved staying in south Kona which is quieter than Kailua.
The owner was very friendly and available. I loved the area and the house has a large screened lanai around the house which was perfect to see the daily rainbows. It was perfect
We were thrilled with our stay. The sunsets were amazing and so was the house. There. were 10 of us and there was plenty of room. The kitchen was stocked with everything imaginable. We loved our stay.
What a beautiful property! Beautiful views! Candi, the host, couldn't have been more helpful. The home was as described and had more than advertised. We had Chef Brad prepare a dinner for us and it was really good. The location is not really walkable to anything as the roads are narrow with no sidewalks or space for pedestrians. Car dependent but everything you need is within a 10 - 15 minute drive. We totally recommend this amazing place.Thank you again for sharing your home with us.
Wow! This house and property are beautiful!! My family and I very much enjoyed our stay!! The views are breathtaking, and I could sit on the porch all day every day taking in the ocean views!
House is amazing, the pics dont do it justice. Host was great. Some of the fixtures and bathrooms are showing their age but not a problem for family stay. The pool had an issue which took a few days to resolve but we spent all our time at the awesome beaches
We so enjoyed our time at the Maka Nui estate. Beautiful views from nice big house with lots of space for the family to really spread out. The screened-in deck on the top floor allowed us to enjoy the outdoors bug-free. Highly recommended.
Wonderful, private home with amazing views and a ton of space!
We had 8 people stay, extremely comfortably. There was a TON of space, inside and out. Very nice home, with a nice breeze all day and night. So comfortable.
We will stay here next time we come back!
Aloha , as the caretaker of Maka Nui of which I am privileged to do. I have been on property for 31 years & lived on the Big Island for 33 So feel free to call with any questions you might have & I would be happy to help.
Maka Nui is country but close enough (15-20 minutes) to night life . It has all the stores to get supplies here & great restaurants so we get the best of both worlds.
First are the mascots Frick & Frack (dogs) They love to meet new folks as is always a chance to get treats! Then the sounds of birds & palms rustling in the breeze. Of course the pool & fruits are always a plus! And we are always around to answer any questions. As the pool /gardeners & coffee workers there is always something to do.
