Great location

The location of the property was great! Keys were difficult to operate in doors. Management was easy to get a hold of and timely in their responses. Had all amenities you could need and more. Overall we had a great stay!

Unrealized potential

This is a great property in a great location, but there are a lot of issues. To me it looked like it was designed by an interior design student who never lived in a place like this. It was beautifully staged, but functionally inadequate.Our main issue was with the ventilation. With no AC, it is imperative that a cross breeze is available. Unfortunately MANY windows did not open and bedroom slider doorhad no screens making sleeping difficult. Providing lots of floor fans was not an acceptable substitute for ventilation.The pool was fantastic, but its storage room was a mess.The appliances were fancy but didn’t work. The living room had a single couch that only sat three. The dishes and glasses were plastic and in short supply. Even the wine glasses were plastic. The master bathroom’s location provided NO privacy.We feel that this place needs a lot of TLC and a small investment to make it great.In my opinion, until the ventilation issues are addressed, this property should be avoided. Once they are fixed we would return in a heartbeat.

Awesome oceanview house with a pool!

Our family of four, my husband, myself and two teen boys, 12 and 14 really had a wonderful time staying at this lovely vacation home right across the street from the ocean. The ocean view is phenomenal and the pool was an absolutely awesome added bonus to our stay! The boys had such a wonderful time swimming when we’re not exploring the island. We couldn’t have asked for a better location as it was minutes from the Magic Sands Beach, amazing snorkeling at Kahalu’u Bay and just 10 minutes from downtown Kona. FYI, there’s no A/C but the fans around the home kept us cool at night. The weather was partly cloudy and temperatures in the mid 70’s so it was ideal for chilling on the deck and lanai. The beds were very comfortable and there were floaties and beach balls available for use for the pool and beach towels, chairs and snorkel gear available in the storage area beneath the separate casita for your beach outings. It would have been nice to

30th Anniversary stay

Enjoyed the location, house and pool. It was warm when we were there and there is no air conditioning. Fans were not enough to cool the main bedroom, so we moved to the front bedroom over the garage. This room cooled better due to flow from the ocean through the room. We would look for a place that has a/c next time or move further up the mountain!

House could use a little more TLC

The house was great and the pool with the outside Lanai was awesome. The house could use a bit more TLC. A lot of the windows could not be opened and with no AC it was quite hot, even with the fans on. The oven did not work, which was the main reason for renting the unit, as I had to bake a bunch of pie shells for my daughter's wedding. The floors where dirty when we got there. And the guest bathroom sink had very poor drainage. We also had to run our trash to the rubbish dump due to the trash bins below being full. As I said, the pool and spending time with family and friends was the highlight of our trip.

Wonderful! We had an amazing stay. Snorkeling right across the road. Many beaches nearby. Restaurants and shopping 10 minutes up the road. Pool was a God send. Used it every day. Sat at the lanai most nights. The queen room is a separate entrance but that door is right near an entrance to the master bedroom in the main house. So not a big deal. No AC as noted. We kept the doors and windows open with fans going. It was fine. Ocean views and lush landscaping around pool. Very pretty. Definitely would recommend.

Just Amazing!

This home is immaculate! It was clean and was ready for our family to enjoy it right when we opened the door. The view was good, as you could see the ocean and the pool was the best! It was a tad hot, since there is no air conditioning, but there are a ton of fans and a pool to cool down in. We saw amazing sunsets right across the street from the house, as there was a public entrance to the shoreline. The house is perfect in location for beach days at Magic Beach. We throughly enjoyed our stay. Just a heads up, that the second bedroom is not attached to the main house. It was not a big deal for us, since we have older children, but could be hard with younger kids. We would definitely stay here again!

Great vacation house!

Nice view of ocean. The pool is great. Two beaches nearby but both are small, we didn't end up going to either. Fairly convenient to grocery stores. Really nice kitchen. Master bath has no doors and is not very private, which is interesting, but was fine for us. We'd stay there again.

Fantastic

This unit was amazing. It was a lot more than we expected. The layout was unbelievable. Sitting on the patio every morning and evening was a favorite part of the day. The 3 full bathrooms was great. Wayne Twitchell was very accommodating as we had to rebook because of Covid last year. I would definitely rebook this unit in the future. The only minor issues were a small coffee pot and the pans were not very good.

A Wonderful Family Christmas Vacation.

This is a fabulous house in a convenient location. The pool was very enjoyable and the layout was nice. I have two negative comments. 1. The master bathroom has absolutely no privacy. 2. The noise from the road out front at times was overwhelming. We were able to overlook those two things and enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect Location and Beautiful Property

We really enjoyed our week stay. Property was beautifully maintained and had everything we needed, including extra gear for the beach. The pool was clean. We went with my mom and she had her own mother in law's quarter separate from the house. Located close to excellent snorkeling and 3 minutes north of Longs Drugs and KTA. We had an issue with the fan and the manager was super responsive and sent someone right away. Only issue was that the fridge didn't work well and didn't keep food cold but other than that, we would totally stay there again!

As Advertised- Amazing Location

This property was perfect for me, my husband and mother. The separate Ohana helped create privacy and separation while still all being together. The property is super clean and in a fabulous location. The hubby and I walked to Kahaluu Bay and rented equipment for snorkeling most days. It was also central to easily visit the other main snorkeling sites like Kealakeua and Honaunau Bays while still being within easy distance of all the main downtown area offers. We even were able to jump on the Kona Trolley nearby and ride to downtown. It is perfect. Book now! :)

Great Photos of Home

This house provides beautiful photos and overall we enjoyed our 42 day stay. For the daily rental price the Owners/Management need to to do an assessment and make some furniture re-arrangement and purchase items for the kitchen. Listed as sleeping 6, there is no table that seats more than 4. This kitchen was inadequately stocked. However, we were very pleased when we notified the management company who quickly responded by purchasing and delivering a new butcher block knive set, 8 piece utensil set, plastic water glasses and large non-stick frying pan. Thank you so much Michelle! We ate in the majority of the time and these items were essential. There was no salad spinner, pitcher for ice tea or juice nor vegetable peeler as some examples. The kitchen takes up 1/3 of the living space and there is no true living room area- just a sleeper couch, coffee table across the room from the TV. So people couldn’t gather together unless we were outside on the deck. The house is well set to enjoy beaches and Kailua-Kona.

Great location but property needs some love

The property is in a great location on Ali'i Dr between the snorkeling swimming beaches. The pool is a nice feature though it could use some umbrellas as it gets incredibly hot on the pool deck. The kitchen is huge but definitely needs a refresh on glassware, kitchen utensils, etc. The biggest issue is that the house gets very hot and, while there are lots of fans, putting some small a/c units in the bedrooms would go a long way to making this place much better!

Perfect Location!

We really enjoyed our stay at the house! The house is fabulous. The pool is amazing (we spent lots of time in the pool). The house was very clean. -- Walking distance to two very nice beaches. The closest beach had the most incredible snorkeling. Across the street they are building a bed and breakfast, so there is some construction noise during the day. Right next to the B&B there is beach access. Beautiful sunsets you can watch over there. -- We found it to be peaceful at night. There is a couple that lives just to the north and they have a toddler (it was not quiet our last night here), but for the most part very quiet. This house is on the main roadway for the island, so there is traffic, but we knew that going into it. The sunsets from the deck make up for the traffic. -- They do have plenty of beach items here. Stocked with a cooler, noodles, floaties, beach chairs, snorkel gear. -- The best part about this house is that there is no air conditioning! I dislike AC. Fans were provided. You don't need AC, just take a dip in the pool! -- Another plus is there are tons of beautiful geckos on this property. They do their job and take care of any little bugs. -- Thank you Wayne for sharing your property with us, we really enjoyed our stay!!
