Beautiful Home with Lovely View
Lovely home with an incredible view. I was impressed that the home was so maintained. We had a small event there mid October (paid almost $4k for 2 nights with all fees including event fee) and the AC was out. We fumbled with fans and 2 portable AC units that were brought in. We had to vent them in the windows except one unit didn’t have enough panels to vent so we tried to use the blinds to vent and it popped the GFI. It was extremely hot and humid. We did our best shuffling fans. we ended up putting 1 port unit in the kitchen without proper ventilation just vent pointed at window. At one point even tried to leave the freezer open with a fan in front of it to try to cool off the home. It was mid October so probably one of the hotter/more humid days. Getting ready for the event, kept having to take breaks and stand in front of the fans. We were able to cool off the master bedroom with the other portable unit, but the rest of the house was hot. We knew it was out of the owner’s hands and he did bring in the the 2portable units. He was extremely pleasant to deal with, but we were not offered any discount for the trouble. Overall, our evening event turned out lovely, but the trouble of shuffling fans, trying to vent portable units that didn’t have enough panels to cool off the home (i feel) should’ve justified a small compensation, but none was offered. Had the AC situation not happened, it would of been perfect.

65th Bday Celebration with Family
The photos on the VRBO site are completely accurate. This place is magical! Experiencing the sight and sound of the waves rolling into the small bay that is the centerpiece of the house, especially early in the morning and at sunset, was mesmerizing. The house is just far enough away from Kona center to feel private, but close enough to get supplies, dinner, etc.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! In opening my families review of this incredible property I will lead with: If you don't enjoy the sound of waves do not stay here! My family enjoyed this special place from February 20, 2024, until March 5, 2024. This property has everything you needed to feel like home. We cooked up many an incredible meal for family and friends that left no need to eat out each night. The Lanai table be it early morning or evening was a perfect setting to visit, watch sunrises and sunsets, enjoy the incredible meals, or just to rest in solitude. The lawn area below by the rock wall was a great place to sit in chairs and watch all the sea life below in the tide pools. Feeding the six eels when the tide was in was one of our trip's highlights. Any fish trimmings would always start a feeding frenzy when they located their prey. The beds were comfortable. The fans above and the sea breezes thru the patio door screens was all the cooling affect you might need. We didn't feel the need to turn on the A.C. at any time. The bathrooms like the whole house were very clean. Hot water was never a problem taking multiple showers in the morning or evening. The kitchen cabinets we loaded with everything you would ever need to cook whatever meal was needed. The electric stove was a little tricky for us, I think mainly all of us had gas ranges at home. The barbecue though simple did and incredible job at grilling great steaks and seafood. Thanks David you were a great host Cheers!

We booked Dave's place to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday. The day prior to arriving, I had messaged Dave for check in instructions as I had not received anything. He replied many hours later saying he would text me the details. Never have I had to give personal phone number to get check in details, so I did not feel comfortable doing so, and on the day of the check-in, I messaged him on vrbo again for check in details. No reply. Long story short, we had to be re- wait 2 hours to get check in information

Hidden Gem - Gorgeous Location
Beautiful waterfront home near center of town with spectacular views from upstairs and downstairs master bedrooms. House gives a great tropical vacation vibe, well appointed with all comforts. It was a humid time in Kona but the whole house AC worked perfectly for sleeping while providing open access to the waterfront yard and porch. We are a 3-generation family of 6 adults (ages 74,73, 57, 50, 23 and 21) and it was perfect for all of us. The owner was very responsive to all of our questions and made the entire process stress-free. I would come back again in a heartbeat.

We had a wonderful time at this property. Plenty of space for our family of 5, well stocked kitchen and fabulous outdoor space. We loved that we could snorkel just steps away from the property, be careful at low tide though. Honestly we didn’t even need to snorkel anywhere else, there were so many fish right behind the house!

WOW! This property—the house, the lanai, the yard, the view—is spectacular! Capt Dave was very easy to communicate with. Great house for a family. Those with very young kids will need to be attentive to stairs and backyard garden wall facing water. Snorkeling in the bay is great!

BEST EVER!
I can't say enough good things about this stay. The home was more perfect than we could have imagined. It had all the supplies and amenities we needed for a dream vacation by the sea for my hubby and I, our two teenagers, and their two friends. We loved the location right on the ocean. Just over the front yard sea wall was our own private little slice of ocean paradise. We saw dolphins, sea turtles, rainbows, a multitude of colorful fish, and moray eels. The eels came right up to be fed, which was super cool for all of us but especially the kids. The little beach next door provided great ocean access, but definitely watch out for sea urchins! Wear protective water shoes and you are in for a beautiful swim, snorkel, or boogie board experience. We were just close enough to Kona to easily bop into town for supplies, food, and fun, but far enough away to feel like we had our own quiet little place away from all the hustle and bustle. Awesome beaches were all within easy driving distance. Communication with the manager was excellent too. We will 100% be back!
