Great home base for our week on Hawaii. The house, yard, and lanai are wonderful. We watched the sunset from the Crow's Nest every evening, and I loved reading in the hammocks. The neighborhood is close enough to town to be convenient and just far enough out to feel "away." Since it was just two of us, we had LOTS of room. We'll have to come back with more family!

Great family vacation house

Our vacation rental in Kailua - Kona was amazing. Kai Vista was in a perfect location, not too close to the city, but close enough that if we wanted we could walk down for happy hour. Kai vista easily slept 6 adults, the kitchen was well stocked, and well organized. We cooked almost every evening, and ate outside under the stars. The hot tub was a bonus every evening, and the crows nest was perfect for viewing the amazing sun sets. The property itself was very clean when we arrived and easy for my mom to move around safely. We really never had an issue with Kai Vista. We did call Heidi one day to check on the trash service and she responded immediately. We can hardly wait to return.

So, this is a unusual property with essentially two parallel living spaces. There is a main house with two rooms upstairs and downstairs with a sitting area with a tv and a bathroom. a downstairs sitting area, dining area and kitchen. then a nonconnected master bedroom and bathroom next door. then their is a elevated lanai that is connected by a bridge and stair access. Overall the property is quite large and was great for two couples having plenty of private space. The ocean access is limited to the end of the street and is rocky, but there were nice beaches close by. Overall this would be a great place to stay for two couples or a family with kids old enough that they could be on their own. The deck is huge and their is a large area to sit outside to eat and a barbecue and hot tub. Overall service that manages the place was very friendly and very responsive -- a firearm needed a battery, the internet went out for a couple of hours (internet controls access to the TV as well), so the manager had the owner upgraded the internet next day. Overall, for a family or families who like lots of space this would be fantastic aBut, wouldn't choose if you want to easily walk to somewhere to shop/eat, or walk to the beach.

Great location, perfect for 2 families and nice floor plan!
The 8 of us 2 set of parents, two 20 year olds and a 16 and 17 year old throughly enjoyed our one week stay. It was a great location to explore the Kona Coast, close to grocery stores, 2-steps for snorkeling, Magic Sands Beach and much more. We had breakfast at the house each morning and enjoyed grilling at night. The hammocks were a great addition as well as the geckos that joined us for breakfast. Short walk to view the sunset at the beach nightly.

We loved having 3 separate indoor & outdoor dining locations, lots of room for the 2 families to spread out and to sleep (comfy beds!), the enclosed hammock space was fun/relaxing, nice ocean views, good supplies for all our traveling needs, and very responsive host quickly addressed all our questions and minor issues, well-maintained house, and lots of private yard space. We would absolutely stay here again!
