BrianRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This was our family's second stay at this condo, and it continues to be our favorite place we've stayed in Hawaii. It's situated the perfect distance from Kona, providing a relaxed atmosphere...and the views cannot be beat! The condo itself is quite comfortable, the kitchen stocked with what's needed, and the complex has several amenities in case you ever find yourself wanting to lay low during your stay. Additionally, as with our last trip, the host is readily available and super responsive should any needs or questions arise while you are there. Next time we plan our Hawaii trip, this will be the first place we look to stay!

We had a wonderful stay and the place is very cute. It's on the smaller side...but squeaky clean and had anything and everything one might need during their short stay. Wifi was great and very fast which was a big relief because we didn't have cell phone service in the area.

Unique Private Suite, Million Dollar View

LeeanneRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

A slice of paradise sums up our unique stay at Anne’s Octagon bedroom and sacred space. Every day was an adventure with geckos 🦎 visiting frequently, just to grace us with their beautiful presence. The incredible ocean views near Caption Cook Monument and surrounding areas were awesome too! We were spoiled by Kona coffee, Papaya, other exotic fruits and fresh tomatoes 🍅 dropped off daily by our Hosts. The night sky was filled with birds singing, crickets 🦗 humming, frogs 🐸 chirping and Organic Nature sounds that sounded like a Forest Meditation making for a very good night’s sleep. Thank you Anne & Dan for your outstanding hospitality this trip is going down in the History Books! Infinite 💜 & Light, LeeAnne & Kenny

Peter and Lori are friendly and welcoming and their property is truly lovely -- it is evident that a lot of care, effort and thought goes into to maintaining it. The cottage makes a perfect home base for exploring the area. It is also so pretty and comfortable that you just might want to pick up a pizza, watch some Jeopardy and dream about what it would be like if every Friday evening was that perfect :) Thank you so much Peter & Lori!

JuliaRating, 5 stars63 months ago

Beautiful oasis with a great beach to walk down to. We were pleasantly surprised to find that we loved that beach! It was so peaceful and the waves were often mellow. It is a bit of a drive into Kona, about 45 minutes. There is a lot to do near the house but to get to white sandy beaches you have to go about 1.25 hours away. The house was great. Clean and open. Neighbors are loud at times but mostly quiet. When they are loud though it is really loud. Overall lovely place and great value.
