This home was exactly as pictured. We spent every evening watching the sun set from the hot tub. During the day we opened up all of the doors/walls downstairs and the cross breeze was amazing. Fully stocked kitchen and toiletries. If you want a rental house that gives you the full island experience with the most beautiful view we’ve ever seen, this is the one.

You cannot get any closer to the crashing surf than this house. Absolutely amazing! Whales swimming by all day long, dolphins jumping and spinning just off the coast, outrigger canoes paddling back and forth. These are just a few of the highlights, not to mention incredible sunsets that go on forever. The house is immaculately appointed with everything that you could want or need. Very private and quiet, save for the ocean sounds. A great privilege and opportunity to experience something most could never even dream of. Excellent!

This house and view could not have been better. We watched whales and saw spinner dolphins from the lanai. The openness of the house allows for ocean breezes throughout. The koi pond was a great and entertaining addition. This home is so peaceful and private. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful house! Enjoyed our stay. Ali’i Point location provides you a great view and waves constantly crashing. Great layout of the house although not much shaded outdoor area in the back is a little draw back. In the evening if you want to watch TV it’s hard to do so without closing the doors due to sound from waves and koi pond but then it gets warm as this area is unable to be air conditioned (minor complaint). Bedrooms are very comfortable and nicely air conditioned for sleeping. Overall a great experience and hopefully we’ll get to stay here again!

Beautiful home but the Kona area directly outside the gates wasn't that enjoyable. Just very crowded and you get more of the shops you would see on boardwalk. We had an issue with the TV in the living room (didn't work) and I was directed to call this person to call this person. No thanks. For the money spent, I would expect to have everything working properly. That being said, if you are looking to enjoy a great pool with a great view its a nice place. Personally, I felt that your dollar can get more value in a nicer area up the coast, north of the airport.

My wife and I stayed for a week in this beautiful house. While there is plenty of room for a family (3 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms) it was perfect for our needs. The master bedroom has air conditioning to help with the warm days, but the main living space of the property does not. With doors that open complete walls for a cross breeze, we were never uncomfortable. The pictures don't do this beautiful home justice. The house was clean and tastefully decorated. The kitchen was equipped with all that you should need. The view was the best thing about this place. I would estimate it to be over a 180 degree view. Listening to the waves crash made for the best sleep of our lives. The koi pond was equally tranquil and a nice touch. The location is close to restaurants and shopping so was super convenient. We are already picking another week to book this year because a week felt like two days. We were very sad to have to say goodbye. There were only a few problems which would be easy to address in the future. There were no towel racks anywhere in the house including the bathrooms. This made it difficult to dry towels to prevent mildew before washing. It was only the two of us, but I can imagine it being more of a problem with kids. The outside trash bins were completely full when we arrived making it difficult to shove our trash in them for a week. We were not informed of a trash day that we could have put the bins out. The outdoor patio was very dirty and my wife had to spend the first morning sweeping it off. It remained mostly clean for the rest of our stay which told us it just had not been swept in a while. Also, the pool was dirty as well. We used their skimmer and brush to try to brush the dirt out and managed to improve the cleanliness after about 3 days. These are things that we just didn't think we should have to worry about on vacation and didn't see a need to call someone else to fix during a holiday week. They may want to consider running the filter for more than what seemed like 8 hours per day while guests are staying. The pool guy did show up toward the end of our stay, but didn't have much to do since we had been cleaning it all week. LOL! Those few issues will definitely not prevent us from returning, and we can't wait to enjoy this property for another amazing week.

This home is absolutely beautiful. The view, the pool, the location, the gorgeous kitchen, in home fountain and pond, all are just incredible. The master bedroom suite is huge and just wonderful. Other bedrooms too. The location close to town is perfect. Add the fact we watched a whale 800 yards out breech 25 times and thats the icing on the cake.

Wonderful location and beautiful property. Our stay was great. Enjoyed the beautiful sunset while sitting by the pool each evening. Very relaxing. Thanks to all.

The location and the ocean-front made the stay. The pool was also fantastic but needs some work in places as the plaster is starting to wear. We felt that we really didn't want to go anywhere and instead stay at the house and enjoy the sounds of the ocean, the waves crashing into the rocks, the breeze and the view! The only issues we had were with the a/c in the 2 smaller bedrooms, which did not work. The manager responded right away and sent a technician over but there was a broken part and we didn't have these functioning during our stay.

Nothing can beat sitting in the pool or jacuzzi and watching the sunset. The view from this house is spectacular! The house itself is amazing, with lots of space and a very well supplied kitchen. Highly recommended.

Definitely accurate photos. Only 3 bedrooms but the house is gigantic with vaulted ceilings, enormous master and main level. The stairs up to the bedrooms are open air with open hallway to master, really impressive. The direct ocean pool with hot tub was a huge hit with our adult daughters and so convenient to walk to open air market across the street. The beds were all amazing comfort. ~ Mahalo!!
