Aloha and mahalo for your lovely review. We're glad you found Orchid Hale very nice in all ways. Thank you for noting the longer drive to the beaches and Kona town — Orchid Hale is located a little further up the mountain, which can mean more driving but also offers a peaceful setting and lovely views. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back to the Big Island soon.

The Orchid Hale was more than we could have imagined. The property was so beautiful that we walked it several times during our stay. The lanai kept drawing us in for morning coffee and evening sunsets. The views were spectacular. The kitchen had everything we needed. The house was clean. It was a dream stay for my family. Nothing like we had ever stayed in before and would do it again and again.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the amazing view and beautiful yard—it's truly a special part of this property. We hope to welcome you back soon for more relaxing moments and breathtaking scenery!
Wonderful little hideaway nestled among the forest with spectacular views of the mountains! If you want a place that is remote and away from the touristy locations, this is a great option. Love that there is an A/C unit inside too.
Gorgeous home, comfortable beds, well-appointed kitchen, and extras like snorkeling gear made our stay easy and enjoyable.Short walk to great coffee, shops, and art galleries. Easy access to anywhere on the island. .
Beautiful grounds, the house was very nice. Being up high over the ocean was a lot cooler comfortable to sleep. Only thing I didn’t care for was the screened in main sitting area where it somewhat obstructed clearer views for picture taking.
This was the perfect house for our family. We came to the big island for a family wedding which the venue was conveniently located right down the road. We enjoyed the grounds of the house and the hosts were very responsive to needs/requests. We were so appreciative of the snorkeling gear, beach towels, boogie boards, beach chairs and beach umbrella that we had access to while we stayed. Wonderful property!
Aloha Colette,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay with us. We are happy to hear you had a wonderful time in the home and on the island. Congratulations to your ohana on their nuptials! We enjoyed hosting you folks!

This house made the perfect landing spot for our group with the space and comfort for 10 days to relax and cook a few meals at “home”. Mornings were amazing as we often took the short walk to the coffee cart and cafe for our morning brown butter miso latte! It rains a lot which means it’s much cooler here which made the stay much more comfortable in my opinion but you can get in the car and find the sun at a beach just a couple miles away.
Great place to stay for a relaxing get away. From sun rise to sun set the views are amazing. Lots of space throughout the property to unplug from the day to day and reflect on other aspects of your life. There was a restaurant/bar and coffee shop with in walking distance from the house th
The location was exactly what I was hoping for, close to everything but felt like a far away land. The sunsets on the ocean from the screened in porch were amazing and the acre of tropical landscaping did not disappoint. We all agreed it was a very special place.
We had a great experience. The property listing and pictures were exactly what we’ve enjoyed during our stay.
We’ve walked the property every day and our grandchildren have really enjoyed the trees and beautiful flowers.
Thank you for everything! Will recommend!
We enjoyed the farm setting of this house. Frogs sing at night and roosters wake us up in the morning. Gorgeous view from all the windows. Very comfortable house and beds at the same time.
This property was magnificent. It was quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of any city life and sitting just on top of the small village of Honolua. The frogs sang you to sleep and they did leave a large box of earplugs for the roosters in the morning. Great property and would definitely stay there again!
Our 1st vacation as a family, and we had an amazing time staying at this location. It was a lot more and beautiful than expected. The experience here was great with so much to see and do. Neighbors were very nice and welcoming! It was also a great place to start the day and plan our day-to-day adventures. Definitely look forward to staying here again in the future! Mahalo (:
We loved our trip! The house was very clean and well appointed. The Orchid Hale is a special gem. We loved being out of the commercial zone, enjoying the beautiful property, wonderful sunsets, and listening to Coqui Frogs at night. The beach and snorkel gear provided were a big plus.
Away from the hustle of Kona, this property sits on the side of Mauna Loa in an arts village called Holualoa. Even being away from the town, there are still expansive views and it is one of our favorite properties on the island. Great communication and easy to get into, although make sure to follow the directions to the place that are sent by the manager as Google Maps can't get you there.
Beautiful place, amazing location was secluded but short walk to fantastic dining and shopping. Loved every minute. If noises bother you, roosters and Koki frogs could be an issue. I didn’t mind either. We hope to return some day!
The property was beautiful! We loved the location - not close to a beach, but on the mountain side surrounded by coffee plants and lots of other lush vegetation. Not only was the property gorgeous but we enjoyed the daily visits from a couple of chickens and a bunny. Our little granddaughter was very excited about the animals! The house was very comfortable and well-appointed, with an inviting zen-like feel. Dinner every night on the lanai was a must so that we could watch the spectacular sunsets.
This property is it true Hawaii Island escape. Sitting on several acres surrounded by fruit bearing trees, stunning vegetation, manicured lawns, and stunning views of the ocean. This authentic-style Hawaiian home takes advantage of the cool trade winds allowing you to become part of nature with absolute privacy. Dining on the larger Lanai is breathtaking. This property includes a complimentary concierge who will help you plan your entire stay on the island. We will most definitely be booking this beautiful property again on our next day on the main island.
Stayed here with my parents, my sister in law, my wife and our daughter. Everything about the stay was great and the property management was the best we've ever had. Less than 15 minutes to respond ton any issues and issues were fixed right away.
The property is large and secluded with amazing views of the water and sunsets. The one downside is that the location is about 15 minutes away from everything like beaches, major stores etc. There is a small area for coffee and food nearby though that can be walked to. Otherwise the amenities were great and we would definitely return.
