Permitted Luxury Home, Stunning Views, Heated Pool, Perfect Location!

Luxury Home with the Best Views on the Kona Coast (Big Island of Hawaii).
We have a STVR (short term vacation rental) permit issued by the County of Hawaii.
 
You'll love our large, heated pool with travertine decking around the pool for the ultimate luxury. Cooks dream kitchen with mahogany cabinets and granite counters.
 
Picture yourself lounging around the pool with the huge blue ocean always in sight or reading on one of the many the lanai's. Imagine one gorgeous sunset after another, framed by the palm lined coastline and the lights of Kona. Enjoy them with a glass of wine surrounded by your family and friends. This is what you will find yourself doing at Kona View House.
 
But the views are not just from the pool, they are front and center in almost every room. Our home contains Tommy Bahama-style tropical furnishings and tropical art on almost every wall.
 
Sleeps up to 9 comfortably. 10 possible upon request (for example an infant or small child). We welcome kids, and they love to play in the extra large pool! (But should be supervised for safety and be respectful of neighbors with noise.)
 
Your stay at Kona View House is also environmentally friendly, since we have 33 grid-tied solar panels which produce all the power we use!
 
Our multitude of 5 star reviews assure you that you will have the vacation of your lives! Guests return to Kona View House year after year, and even have come back to get married!
 
We have stayed at many vacation rentals ourselves, and have included every amenity we could think of, so you can have the vacation of your dreams.

* Coolers, beach chairs and pool floats.
* Baby items such as high chair..
* Storage containers to protect your food.
* Quality linens and towels.
* High speed wireless internet.
* Large gas grill
* Fully equipped, spacious and modern kitchen with 2 sinks, double oven, numerous small appliances. Ironing, hair dryers, full size washer and dryer,
* 4 TV's with Roku; included streaming options or use your own Netflix, Amazon, Hulu accounts.
* Books * Games

The house is on 2 floors. Upstairs is the kitchen, living room with big TV, dining room, 2 public lanai's, bedroom with king bed, lanai and en-suite bath, den/bedroom with pull out memory foam queen bed, and powder room. Downstairs are two bedrooms with 1 full bathroom in the hallway between them. Both bedrooms downstairs walk out to the lower lanais and the pool. One has a queen bed, the other has a queen and a twin bed.

We are centrally located, just a 5-10 minute drive from downtown Kailua-Kona. Everything from Wal-mart and Safeway to the cute downtown shops and restaurants of Kailua-Kona can be reached in just a few minutes. You can even be snorkeling at one of the local beaches in just a few minutes. The airport is 15-20 minutes north, the mega resorts and beaches are 30 minutes north, and the Volcano is 2.5 hours south.

In terms of weather, because we are on the side of a mountain, the weather varies by elevation. Down toward the water it is very hot with little breeze. You would often want air conditioning at that elevation. Up at 1200-1500 feet it's quite cool; homes have fireplaces and residents wear long pants. Most people believe 600-800 feet elevation is ideal, and our home is at 650 feet. It's warm enough to feel that you are in Hawaii, but almost never gets too warm. In the evening, cool air comes down the mountain, and you can control the temperature in the house by opening and closing the front door to allow this air in or not. (Note that up north where the resorts are, it is often quite windy, but here we only get light breezes.) We do have 7 ceiling fans and large windows for warm days.

Solar pool heat is included, and if the sun is not cooperating additional heat is available for a small fee.

Many of our guests report that they had all kinds of plans to visit places around the island, but they actually spent a lot of their time at the house, floating in the pool, hanging out on the lanai and watching the sunset, not wanting to leave. This is the experience we try to provide.

Certainly there are many vacation rentals you can choose from, but we hope you will choose ours so we can share this magical place with you. There are places that are less expensive, but we have yet to see something comparable to ours in terms of views, amenities, luxury, and style, for less. Don't forget all the ways we will save you $ on your vacation! You can cook your meals at home, and save money on rental costs for beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, boogie boards, and coolers.

If you need any baby gear, check out BabyQuip for all of your needs.
https://www.babyquip.com/kailuakona?a=ca2aee2 We'll work with them to be sure your gear is here by the time you arrive.

Note: We do not allow parties; only guests staying at the home, and others as pre-authorized. There are two webcams in the yard that we only turn on if we have neighbor complaints about a party or noise.

Paradise Awaits: A Perfect Hawaiian Retreat
We had an incredible stay at this lovely house on the Big Island of Hawaii! The property was just as stunning as shown in the photos, featuring three spacious bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen that made dining in a pleasure. The open-concept dining and living areas led out to a beautiful balcony with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. Enjoying a cup of coffee in the mornings and winding down with a drink in the evenings on that balcony was truly magical. The large pool was a fantastic addition to our experience, providing a refreshing respite after a day of exploring. We did encounter some minor issues with the pool at the start, but our host was exceptionally responsive and addressed our concerns promptly and effectively, which we greatly appreciated. The neighborhood was not only safe but also conveniently located near Kona, making it easy to access a variety of excellent restaurants. Overall, we were thrilled with our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a wonderful getaway!

House has everything you can possibly need. Beautiful views, great space, lots of fans which help. It was humid so made it feel very hot. But we knew that going in July would be that way. The pool is a great way to cool off. 9 Beach chairs and 2 umbrellas along with snorkel equipment was great to have. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay

Perfection in Paradise!
Our entire family enjoyed our stay at this wonderful home in Hawaii. Plenty of room for us to spread out - but lots of spots (pool/lanai/living & dining room) for us to be together. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked with every type of pan/cooking utensil we needed, and the wide array of beach necessities (towels/chairs/coolers) made our day trips that much more enjoyable! And the view...AMAZING! Thank you for hosting us, Cindi!

Fantastic Vacation!
We traveled here for my 40th birthday with extended family. We had older adults with mobility issues as well as two children in our travel party. The house was perfect for our group. It is only about 10 minutes away from downtown Kona and a short drive to Keauhou. Well stocked large kitchen. The best part about this house is the view! Gorgeous ocean views from almost every room. We could see whales breaching from the lanai. The pool was clean, and the children loved the provided pool toys. This house has everything you could ask for in a vacation home. Great communication from the host. Best birthday ever!

Amazing Breathtaking Vacation
This was a family vacation, 1 senior, 2 kids, 6 adults. Location is perfect, as centrally located in a safe neighborhood. The home is perfect, with every pot/pan/service dish/ you made need. Enough dishes, enough silverware, my mother wanted to make flour tortillas, and I was skeptical if I would find a rolling pin, and I did. We made pizza, and I found pizza trays to put in the oven. Enough cleans towels, no stains, no holes in the sheets and no stains. Specific instructions on how to use the fancy appliances and instructions on how to use everything else in the house. Decor is perfect, you are in your own tropical paradise within paradise. Thank you Cindi for your prompt responses for all my questions.

Wonderful 1st (and not last) trip to the Big Island
The owner was great to work with, it was incredibly easy to check in and out. The house was stocked with EVERYTHING one would need to make the stay smooth and start your trip out seamlessly. We are thankful for the opportunity to visit the Big Island and that we found this home. We had a hiccup with the pool temps, Cindi was responsive and apologetic.

My family and I (4 adults and 4 kids) had a great time in Kona. The house was perfect. My in-laws took the master suite, my wife and I had one room downstairs, my 2 boys stayed in the other downstairs bedroom, and my 2 girls shared the pull out couch. We spent most of our time on the deck off the dining room enjoying the sunsets and early morning views of Jupiter and Mars. The pool was fantastic and was where my girls spent most waking hours. The location was close enough to downtown and easy to get out for excursions. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a place on the big island.

Fabulous licatiin and perfect for hanging out with family.
Overall a wonderful experience in a lovely home. Would definitely recommend staying here to anyone. Minor issues like overflowing garbage bins loaded and stacked with 6 more full trash bags that WE had to move to the curb on trash day. That part was not cool as it was not our trash. Also, tv remotes were difficult to figure out in main room so we were never able to turn it on. Small cheap plastic outdoor patio end table was broken when we arrived. Other than that, it's a lovely location and quite comfortable for multiple guests.

Great to hang at the pool with family
Overall great place to hang out with family and friends, especially enjoying the pool, BBQ and yard geckos. Very clean and well maintained. Roomy kitchen so no bumbing elbows making meals and grabbing drinks. Xbox had just been removed (not functioning) just before our arrival...which was fine by us but you may want to check if that's important to you.
