Beachfront vacation rentals in South Kona

Stuart's place is truly home away from home. Every little detail so well thought out, you won't find yourself stepping out to stock up on essentials, be it in the kitchen or bathroom. Be it towels, beach chairs/mats or toys, everything is sanitized and available to borrow. Stuart was very accommodating of my request for early check in, which is a blessing when traveling with a toddler. He even had a high chair ready for us. We enjoyed our evenings in the lanai, and I can't wait to be back soon. Thank you, Stuart.

The unit was just as pictured. Nice view from the balcony and good location. Fruit stand right across the street. Magic sands beach down the street is nice spot to hangout. Fully equipped kitchen. Friendly neighborhood. Close to the airport. We loved our stay 🙂

Off the beaten path kind of location. Not in a commercial area, so very quiet location. Beautiful views all day! Place has been well kept. Slept to the sounds of waves every night and woke up to sunrises. Janice strives to make you feel right at home. place had games, beach stuff (boogie board, chairs, mats, beach games, cooler). These are the tropics so expect some bugs; no escaping that. Host is very responsive and takes care of anything that may happen.

One of my favorite AirBnB stays ever! It was a magical place, designed so thoughtfully. I felt deeply connected to the beautiful tropical farm and natural garden surroundings, yet had all of the conveniences to be totally comfortable. It was such a pleasure to wake up to a chorus of birdsongs and gentle warm breeze blowing through the loft windows. The garden shower was also amazing. Melissa and Jeff were so friendly, and I felt at home instantly. I cannot recommend this place more for a retreat in nature!

We stayed here for one night before heading to Hilo. It was a comfortable place to rest after a travel day and then fall asleep to the ocean. It’s a comfortable place with updated features.

5 stars from start to finish! My family and I did not want to leave. Rent this place immediately!

Beth was a terrific hostess! She always responded warmly to us. Her home and lanai are amazing! And the EASY walk to Manini Beach was the huge cherry on top. Thank you Beth for the use of all the beach toys and snorkel gear!!

We stayed 4 days here with extended family in the smaller home on the same property and it was great. The kitchen was well stocked, there was plenty of space for our family of 5 (larger group was 10 total) to spread out. The best part was the beach across the road with good snorkeling (stronger currents so be careful) and lagoon with turtles. Plenty of outdoor gear to borrow- SUP, kayaks, small boogie boards, water shoes and snorkel/fins. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved staying here! The location was close to many things in the Kona area. The dedicated parking spot made it easy to come and go. The mini-split AC was quiet and kept the place cool. The in-unit laundry was great too.

Lovely and spacious apartment with the most beautiful views. It was all very clean with all amenities including beach towels. Dani was very responsive and gave lots of great tips and advice. They also made sure we were settled and comfortable, which I thought was very kind.

We had an amazing time at Joe and Anna’s place! The location was ideal, tucked in a quiet area but still close to shops, restaurants, and everything we needed. The space was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up with everything you’d want in an Airbnb. The kitchen had all the utensils and essentials for easy cooking, and the pool was perfect for our kids, especially with the fun pool toys that were already there. Joe and Anna were incredibly kind and responsive, always quick to answer any questions. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests’ experience. It really felt like a home away from home, and we’d absolutely stay here again!

Un super accueil dans un appartement idyllique. Brad était accueillant, très gentil et serviable. La piscine, l appartement et la vue font que c est un petit paradis. on entend les oiseaux les vagues vraiment on se sent bien et c est très ressourçant. un vrai bonheur...merci aussi à son frère qui était de passage et qui était également très sympathique. À bientôt Brad 🤗et merci beaucoup pour tout!

Great location we walked every day up and down the strip to different restaurants into the beach other sites Walmart, and Safeway are about a five minute drive or about a 10 minute walk Apartment was a good size in newly renovated

Would definitely stay in this condo again. Has been updated since the pictures. Bathroom is newly renovated and stainless steel refrigerator instead of what is pictured Very close to everything but still very, very quiet and peaceful. Michael thought of everything from a welcoming gift, to everything you could possibly need for your days at the beach. Chairs, umbrella, pool, noodles, boogie boards, cooler, and everything for snorkeling. The air conditioners kept us plenty cool. Short walk to the pool and hot tub. Michael totally took care of us.

Denise was very responsive and helped navigate any requests and questions I had. the place was really good. had a good view although it had a couple of buildings slightly ahead to either side of it. the community felt safe and clean.

Great place and area! So much to do around, we didn’t even get a rental car and it worked out perfectly fine. The condo was clean, nice, and just like the pictures. Great communication as well.

The apartment was beautiful! The view was exactly as the photo depicted. The place was organized, clean, and was supplied with almost everything and anything we needed. Overall, it was a great place to stay!

The bungaloha was an little piece of paradise. As soon as we stepped in, we felt at home! The place is really big, clean and the view is absolutely amazing. It's right by the swimming hole and we had fun snorkeling there, we even saw a pod of dolphins one morning, from the deck. The hosts were very responsive and kindly granted us a late check in. The place is so peaceful and beautiful, perfect to relax. I totally recommend.

Annette is an amazing host! Beautiful condo with comfortable character. Huge lanai! Right in front of pool, with ocean behind that. Assigned parking space close to unit. I’m mobility impaired and require a cane. 5 steps into the unit then level. Walk in shower with small ledge. 2+ butt kitchen nicely appointed. Basics are there. Spices etc. They have beach items and chests. Thoughtful welcome basket with wine and Hawaiian snacks. Maps and list of places to go or eat. We are well people and the Brita was very welcome. Thoughtful touches were everywhere! Towels, sunscreen, etc. second bedroom has option of King or 2 twins. Annette had it set for our boys. We immediately settled in for our 12 day stay! I spent a lot of time in the pool between excursions. It was clean and well tended. Nice neighbors! Pool is 8am-8pm. This is a quiet chill place. If you’re looking for loud and crazy, it’s not for you. If you want relaxing amazing place with friends & family, this is the spot! Mahalo!

This unit is a gem. The ground level, ocean front location is hard to beat. The decor is updated and gorgeous and the space is comfortable, while still be very modern and sleek. The space is laid out well and has everything you need to relax and be comfortable. The location right next to Magic Sands Beach is awesome and nearby grocery abs shopping options are very convenient. The hosts were proactive and friendly, and I had a stay without any issues at all. I would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay! The location was fantastic and the views were absolutely stunning. The space was beautifully decorated, cozy, and well thought out. The host was very communicative and made everything easy from start to finish. We’d love to come back!

We enjoyed our stay at Kal's. Great ocean and sunset views from the balcony. Easy to find, great location and lots of free parking. Within 5-10 min walk to downtown Kona where there are lots of eateries. Also within walking distance to a nearby beach. There is also a washer and dryer with the unit. It's awesome having clean clothes for our trip home.

Loved this home! Perfect location across the street from awesome snorkeling. Well stocked with fins and snorkels (although if you have multiple adults who want to swim, not all the gear is as good as the others). Had a high chair, two pack and plays, and a booster seat (not advertised but so useful!). The master bedroom is without a door so light sleepers beware. Lots of towels and shampoo/conditioner. Love the outdoor shower downstairs. Host was responsive.

Words can't describe how great Claire's place is to stay while visiting Kona. Everything at Claire's place exceeded expectations and we can see why she gets 5 stars from her guests. It is beautifully decorate and very roomy for relaxing after our daily adventures. We found having 2 bathrooms worked great for us since we didn't have to trip over each other during our stay. The lanai was a great place for means and enjoying the view. We will definitely stay here again when we return.
