About this apartment rental

Everything you might need to enjoy an exciting or relaxing vacation right by the ocean at the beautiful and world famous, "Kealakekua Bay'.
This private location is perfect for adventuring around our quaint neighborhood, with quiet walks, hiking trails, or exploring further around the island. When you return back to enjoy this safe, secure, cozy space and unwind to the sounds of nature.
I also have assorted snorkel gear available, (if interested, please ask about my bicycle)!

Located at the Manini Beach sub-division, only a 2 minute walk to some of the most incredible snorkeling in the world.... the wonderful Kealakekua Bay! Enjoying crystal clear water on a calm day, filled with colorful reef fish and green sea turtles, theses are some of the beautiful sights you'll experience. Watching the fish and underwater sea life may clear your mind of most thoughts as you discover the peacefulness of snorkeling. Enjoy a Kayak or paddle board on calm days... You may see Dolphins or Manta rays in deeper water and in the winter months there is always a chance of seeing Humpback whales! Please follow all the DLNR rules and keep a safe distance.

My studio has a small kitchenette area in the great big space, with a full size refrigerator, induction stove top, blender, coffee maker, electric tea kettle and outside there is a full size BBQ with a side burner. There is enough space to prepare and enjoy a delicious, quality breakfast, lunch or dinner.
The outside covered patio is surrounded by flowering plants, fruit trees and a fish pond with night blooming waterlily's.
A comfortable queen size bed has 100% cotton sheets and there is a queen size convertible couch if you need or like separate beds. A smart TV for watching Net Flicks and there is plenty of open space to stretch out and relax.
Outside the great room, on the covered patio area, is where my wonderful custom designed private shower is located!
There are extra beach towels a clothes line and some beach gear too.

Enjoy my paradise from this comfortable studio and see how the local folk live!
Please don't hesitate to ask me any questions...
I am here to help make your vacation stay the best ever!
LGBTIQ Welcome! :)

The studio is large and very close to the best snorkeling in the islands. Jill is an excellent host, great communicator, and if you are lucky, provider of wonderful fresh fruit (depending on the season). The studio has everything you need for a nice stay, including a full-size refrigerator. Clean and relaxed Hawaiian vibe.)

This location is excellent!!!! A stones throw from the Manini Beach and cove for snorkeling & Kayaking. Kayaking company Ehu & Kai serves that cove. Two Step Beach is nearby and great for snorkeling. It was a nice escape from the bustling Kona town, yet just 1/2hr south from town. The accommodations were clean artsy eclectic vibe with your own backyard/pond privacy. And the outdoor shower was great!!!! You definitely feel one with the environment there. Proprietor is on-site and very friendly & helpful. My only complaint is that LAUNDRY was listed on the amenities and there was not any.
