Needs new dishwasher and Wi-Fi was inconsistent. BBQ needs service. Only part heats up.
These are small issues but would have made it perfect.
Lovely spot.

The property was amazing! Spacious and luxurious. Communication was great, we had no issues checking in or out. The only issue we had was around the cleanliness of some parts of the house. The dishwasher was gross and smelly and when we arrived there were at least a dozen flies in the house that were quite a nuisance.

We had a wonderful time at this location. Very close to Keauhou Bay and all the snorkeling and boating you can handle. Local restaurants and shopping were wonderful! House was simple, clean and plenty of space. Wonderful kitchen. Can't wait to come back soon!

Everything was perfect except for the rental company wanting to show the house to perspective buyers the day before we were to check out. It was not mentioned that the house may be shown while it was being occupied by renters at the time it was rented (6 months prior). When I told them I have paid too much money to have strangers walking through the house with all our belongings in it, the showing was cancelled. I also find it odd to have outdoor cameras everywhere (front door, garage and one pointing in the backyard). Feels a bit invasive. Other than that, we thoroughly enjoyed the house!

This house was amazing exceeded expectations. Pool was a highlight. We knew it wasn't close to a beach so that didn't bother us but if you are looking for something to a beach this wouldn't be it.

The house was perfect. The location was perfect. We went and played on the nearby beaches in the mornings and hung out by the pool in the afternoons. The Kitchen had everything we needed. When our flight home was delayed by 4 hours they were VERY accommodating and we were able to stay at the house until it was time to leave for the airport. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Overall Impression: Great spot--close to town, beaches and restaurants.
Manager: Very Helpful-- quick to respond. Was a plus having property managers direct line and not a 1-800 number to call.
Community is new--almost complete. Look forward to returning next year.

Very convenient location, close to beach and town. Community is still under construction but we did not seem to notice at all. The managers were so helpful to all of our needs and questions. We plan to stay again and would absolutely recommend!

Nice property surround by construction not beaches
The location of the property and its surrounding area was quite disappointing. We felt misled because the listing said the beach was only a few hundred feet away when it actually didnt have direct access. It was at least a 15 minute drive. Upon arrival, we read in the manual that any trash that could not fit in the trashcan must be disposed of at a neighbor’s trashcan or in a public trashcan or we would pay a fee. For a “luxury” resort and for the price we paid, we did not feel like this was right and there should’ve been a trash pick up day. The trash was also half full when we got there so there wasn’t even a lot of space. We had to take the trash out to public trash can to throw away because she never got someone to come out and pick up the trash. Communicating with the property manager was subpar. On the welcome email, the lockbox code was incorrect and it didn’t mention a gate code. We had to text her for the lockbox code and luckily a passerby swiped us in for the gatecode. When we asked her, it took a while to get the code... We just felt like we could have gotten a better place for the high price that we paid. We asked for the pool to be cleaned but we are not sure that it ever happened. The community and surrounding area was all under construction and there was no sense of Aloha. I would not stay here again

Beautiful and comfortable home
This home is immaculate—spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed with furnishings, kitchen gear, toiletries, decor, and pool and beach accessories. The master bed is the most comfortable one we’ve ever slept in while away from home. The airy open living space is inviting and bright, and the big sliding doors leading to a cozy lanai make for easy indoor-outdoor living. Its location is tucked away but still close to a grocery store and restaurants, and getting to town is about a 15-minute drive. The only downside is that the neighborhood is an active construction zone as of January 2019, with crews arriving around 7 each morning to get started—not conducive to sleeping in or to naps for little ones.

HIGHLY recommended! The best place to stay!
This home away from home is beautifully appointed and luxurious. The open concept interior is both inviting and welcoming. The spacious living area opens onto a comfortable covered lanai with lovely lawn and landscaping aside a dipping pool which we loved using in the evenings. The location of the property was quiet and peaceful as though we were the only residents in the neighborhood, and I slept better here than I do at home! It is very close to the tourist area downtown and to shopping and dining. At sunset , we walked a short distance to view this incredible sight over the golf course and sea very nearby, quite a highlight of the trip. Ellen and Al, the owners, were extremely accommodating, generous, responsive and truly delightful! I can't express how wonderful my experience was, and I would return again and again if I could; I only hope that the property is not already rented when I choose to go to Hawaii the next time! If you like to be treated like visiting royalty with surroundings that are well maintained, clean and bright, (brand new, actually) peaceful and pleasant with all the amenities described in the listing, then this is the perfect place for you and your family or friends. I think it would be the obvious choice for both the athletes and viewers of the coming Ironman Triathalon or anyone who desires the perfect setting for a most amazing and memorable vacation.

Amazing home and neighborhood!
What a great new home near pristine beaches perfect for snorkeling. You can take a short walk to swim with the dolphins that sleep in the bay that is sheltered with coral! Sea turtles, eels, and fish of every color imaginable swim around and under you as the sun rises over the mountains!
To the North, a fantastic every few miles reveal another perfect beach, some best for snorkeling, others perfect for swimming and sunbathing, and still others best for boogie boarding and surfing!
To the South, black and green sand beaches, where dolphins and whales can be seen to swim and cavort, coming right out of the water!
The house was everything it was promised to be, brand new, clean, well maintained, fully stocked, and great service from the property managers.
You can awaken and look out of your front bedroom window and see the ocean less than 300 feet away!
And most of all, a tremendous value! your own landscaped private yard and gorgeous pool, room for up to 8 friends and family, private baths so you never have to worry about inconveniencing each other. I will never stay in a hotel again when traveling to the big island!
So many great restaurants to choose from, the local seafood is out of this world!
I cannot wait to get back with my family next year to enjoy another two weeks of complete relaxation and fun! I will suggest this place to anyone looking for a great time with friends and family! Far exceeded my expectations!

Beautiful property in an amazing location!
Beautifully appointed home in Kona, HI! My wife and I live in Seattle and we were looking for a place to escape the Seattle winter rain. Holua Kai turned out to be a perfect escape.
The house is gorgeous and brand new. It is in a private gated community, which is always a nice layer of security when traveling to a new area. The finishes a top of the line, with a stainless steel kitchen and beautiful hardwood floors. Each bedroom has a comfortable bed with a flatscreen TV. The master bedroom is huge, and it has an amazing shower with a full sized tube. It was the perfect place to unwind after a big beach day or adventures in the mountains.
Regarding the location, Holua Kai is in a perfect location. It is about a 15 minute drive from downtown Kona, which has all the essential stores and restaurants. It is also very close to the Sheraton, which is a huge perk. By far our favorite activity was night snorkeling with the Manta Rays, and one of the few locations in the world where this happens is just down the road and in the cove right in front of the Sheraton.
For activities, highly recommend Manta Ray Snorkeling, Hapuna Beach, and Snorkeling at Captain Cook. For bigger adventure days, the Southern Point and Green Sand Beach and the Northside and Waipio Valley are not to be missed. In terms of food, we recommend The Coffee Shack, Hawaiian Style, and (believe it or not) the KTA Grocery Store chain actually has the best Poke on the island!
This place is unbeatable, for the both the gorgeous accommodations and the prime locations. My wife and I will certainly be back!

Unforgettable experience in Holua Kai!
I can't say enough about this unbelievable property in Kona! The house is brand new and has been appointed beautifully. There are gorgeous views from every window and the pool is an added bonus :) The beds were all very comfortable and the kitchen is huge! There is also a lovely dining area both inside and out that our group used daily. The doors in the open concept living space fully open out to the back patio which makes it truly indoor/outdoor living. It is also very easy to keep a close eye on kids in the pool while cooking!
The location is also unbeatable. You are very close to the best snorkeling on the island and an easy drive to Green Sand Beach (highly recommend) and the Waimea valley.
We can't wait to go back again next year and already planning our next trip!
Thank you to Ellen and Al for making our week an unforgettable experience. You were wonderful hosts and always available for questions and recommendations!
