As advertised!

We had the best time! This house was perfect for our family. We all enjoyed the pool and large outdoor living space!

This house was perfect for our needs! Very clean, lovely home with plenty of space, fruit trees and a beautiful pool. We will definitely stay here again! The owners thought of everything, wonderful property!

The residence was well represented by its listing. When we had an issue management responded immediately and came out to fix it on a Sunday!

We had a great experience at this house. The location was awesome, great view of the water in a gated, quiet community. Went for a walk almost every morning. The house was just as advertised, very clean with all amenities we needed. The backyard was huge. The house and furniture are starting to show age (specifically the main couch and guest bathroom curtain rod) but everything worked. Would definitely stay here again!

Our family rented this property for 10 days over Christmas 2022. It was perfect for our group of 6. There is plenty of space including a massive lanai running down two sides of the house with one side facing the pool. This made for lovely outdoor dining in the evenings and warm, sunny breakfasts in the mornings. The house is very clean and well-appointed with everything you need for your vacation, even some snorkel masks, water shoes, and a couple of beach chairs in the garage and pool noodles, an air mattress, and some toys for the pool. The 2 bathrooms are a bit dated but not a big deal. We had no problems with the TV channels or with Netflix on the house TVs. The TVs also have Prime video, Disney+ and other streaming apps. if you have an account. There are no shops or convenience stores in the immediate area, but the house is an easy drive of less than 10 mins. to all of the shops and restaurants in Kona and less than a 20 min. drive from the airport. We found that there was plenty of paper towel, toilet paper, soap, shampoo, and dishwasher and washing machine tabs for the entire stay, likely a combination of what the property manager provides and what previous guests had left, although we had purchased some of our own supplies anyway. We also appreciated the multi-spice jar and welcome treat basket provided by Kona Coast Vacations. The spices came in very handy over the vacation and meant that we did not have to purchase separate containers of salt and pepper. The pool is quite large and is a fantastic feature of this property to cool off after a day's activities or just to lounge by during the day, although be forewarned that it is very cold! (But we didn't mind and found it refreshing in the tropical sun). Our only criticisms/suggestions for improvement are that there are only 2 pool loungers for a property that sleeps 6, and the clothes dryer had very weak heat such that each load had to be run 2-3 times to dry fully. It likely needs to be replaced. Overall it was a great stay, and we would not hesitate to book this property again.

Property was new-condition clean and exceptionally well provisioned with all but condiments; S/P only. The lack of a garage door opener was extremely inconvenient. Manually closing the door using the switch by the laundry door, then running out the garage car door before it closes was miserable and needless, particularly at 79 years-old. Also, the main TV in the family room was locked on MSNBC; it would not change channels nor access apps such as Netflix or Amazon Prime, even though those subscriptions exist on the MB TV. It was MSNBC 24/7. Period. My wife watches that channel, but not exclusively, as we were forced into on that TV. The pool is nice, furnishings are good quality, especially for a rental, and very comfortable. 80 gallon water heater is generous. Quiet location. A/C thermostat was management-set at 75 degrees; perfect 24 hour temp. Nice linens and toiletries. Everything in the kitchen is good quality; sharpest knives I've ever used. Dishwasher, which we ran often, is quiet. The large veranda that wraps 1/2 of the house makes outdoor eating an easy pleasure. We enjoyed watching birds frequent the lawn area while lounging in the quality furnishing on the poolside veranda. Location is 6 - 10 minutes from downtown Kona., depending on your destination.

Microwave went out and 30 minutes later we had a new one! Only suggestion is new pots pans as the ones there are awful. The couch was clean but worn out so not comfy. Yard is amazing and pool amazing too! Great place to stay!

We’ve stayed in over 20 VRBO rentals and this one was exceptional! Beautiful home and pool. View also wonderful. Everything went very smooth. House well stocked with anything you need. Maholo

This property was perfect for our family to stay. House was clean, kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were also very comfortable. House had AC and enough fans for perfect comfort. Plenty of room for all of us and the outside lanai was awesome. We had all our meals outside. Pool was the perfect temperature. We stayed 12 days and really enjoyed the house and island. We would definitely stay here again.

Close to Kona - nice backyard - plenty of seating inside

This property was everything we dreamed of and more! We had a wonderful family vacation and hope to visit again someday...would definitely rent again.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Holualoa! The property was everything described in the listing! We appreciated the open floor plan and space for our family of 6. The house was well stocked with supplies (toiletries, extra soap, extra paper products, dishwasher pods, etc.)! The pool is a wonderful amenity and the outdoor living space is much larger than we anticipated. This area was truly a family favorite, and we enjoyed many meals and fun time outside. The home provided a perfect view for sunsets during our stay! Overall great location and property! We'd definitely stay again! :)

Although the floor plan is a little strange, the house met all of our needs and the location was very convenient. We had a great time here.

Best equipped kitchen, I found measuring cups and measuring spoons which is important to me. Everything was clean, the pictures reflect the house and even better in person. We had a fantastic time there. Very close to downtown, 3 minute drive to restaurants, etc. I got instructions to the house and got there no problem. I didn't need to contact the office for anything. They were very helpful prior to the trip booking a luau for us. The one piece of feedback is to replace the dryer, its efficiency is very low so doesn't do the work well specially with towels therefore those can smell a little moldy but if watched closely and put through more than one cycle, towels come out smelling clean.

The saltwater pool was used heavily and served as snorkel training grounds for our grandson. The only snag to our stay came on the night of arrival when we discovered we could not get in the security gate. It turns out that the development had recently changed the pass code. A phone call to the property management team resolved the issue in a short time. If this home is available for our next trip we would not hesitate to make a repeat visit.

This rental property is the ideal vacation spot. Last year (2016) did all of the tourist hotspots since I had not been to Hawaii for many years, but this year actually stayed at the house more and just had a very relaxing and leisure time away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and demands. What a great trip!!!

This rental is seriously top notch. There were 6 of us (4 adults, one teenager and one toddler) and we had such a comfortable stay. This home had everything we needed and more. Great location, awesome layout, amazing saltwater pool and fenced back yard. The gorgeous sunsets you can see from the property really wowed us. We didn't want to leave!

We did not realize their was a mountain to see, some days the clouds hid it from view. What a way to start the day. And the pool was so much fun for our family.The kids had a blast and so did we. We would be in it some mornings before 9 a.m. Everything about this place was wonderful. Great location and stunning views. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time visit to Hawaii with a family of 5, so obviously first time using Kona Coast Vacation rental. They knew we were arriving late in the evening and left a few lights on for us. We found the hose was immaculately clean! Everything we needed was there, except for food obviously. Home is very spacious and inviting. View is spectacular. Neighbors are quiet except for an occasional barking dog. Pool was clean, perfect temp. Gardener came mid week but after 10:00 a.m. Gated community so not much traffic at all. Centrally located above near shops, beach, short drive from airport. Gate and door have key codes so no lost keys to worry about, but when I accidentally deleted the key code I put in my phone, I simply called Kona Coast Vacations & the gal texted me the code. Our family felt very at home. We would rent this place again. Leading up to our vacation we had great email communication with the company, David the concierge for the company set up 2 adventures we wanted and had great recommendations when deciding between 2 companies to choose from. Everyone was pleasant. Highly recommended. Aloha!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This vacation was by far the best I have had in years. This rental property was the first that I have rented in Hawaii and I was so impressed with the house and the service that I am already looking at dates for 2016 and will be booking the same property for 2 weeks in 2016. One week was just not enough. There is so much to see and do on the Big Island that one really needs 2 weeks. My uncle, aunt, and cousin that accompanied me on the trip were overwhelmed how beautiful the house was and they all had a great trip as well.

Reviewer Comments: I will start by thanking the staff at Kona Vacations for leaving the house lights on for us when we arrived in the evening, it is a kindness that made us feel welcome. Now, The house has an open feel and accommodated all six of us, three children and three adults just fine. The house is beautiful and surrounded by palm trees and well kept greenery. Also, the house is located near stores like Target, Walmart, Costco and the downtown shopping area. The kitchen is well stocked with kitchenware for any gourme meal a person would like to cook. My children enjoyed the pool immensely despite swimming in the ocean most of the day. They still had energy to go to the pool. The house and staff exceeded our expectations and the house was very clean, neat and tidy. Thank you!
