Kealakekua Bay vacation rentals

We had a fantastic time. Wendy was proactive and responded immediately to messages. Condo was as described and the kitchen was well stocked. We really appreciated the beach chairs, coolers, ice packs and snorkel gear as well. We took a lot of day trips so it was nice not having to buy a styrofoam cooler or ice. The view from the lanai was amazing. We spent a lot of time there watching the boogie boarders and enjoying the sunset. There was also a cute little rainbow that would come and go behind the palm tree directly out the lanai. We did use the pool/jacuzzi a couple times both were well maintained. I choose Wendy's place both for the view and the proximity to town. It was an easy walk to morning coffee and the restaurants. All in all, it was a great trip. Mahalo

We had a beautiful stay at Jan’s place. We saw dolphins from the balcony and fell asleep listening to the waves. It’s so close to the ocean you can hear and smell and feel it all the time. We didn’t plan many activities ahead of time and we used the guidebook and beach gear every day of our trip. We let our hearts decide what we wanted to do and it worked out so well! The kitchen is well stocked with necessities if you want to cook meals, and there is a coffee maker with k-cups. The beds are super comfortable and there are plenty of towels. The location is walking distance to all the cute shops and restaurants you could want, and you can look for tide pools in the lava rock right next to the condo. We had a great experience and hope to return someday!

What a perfect place to stay. Beautiful view and awesome accommodations. Quiet and peaceful. Easy to get to everywhere. Chad was great! Super helpful and attentive. Very comfortable place to stay with everything you could want. Would highly recommend to everyone.

The unit was very clean and well maintained. It has a beautiful view of the ocean but light sleepers be aware that you can hear the waves. Great location with lots of restaurants nearby. Has convenient and free parking. The unit has been updated but the complex is a bit older

Beautiful home. I highly recommend staying here. The view from the lanai was breathtaking. It was definitely within walking distance of town. (30 to 40 minute walk) Lots of things to do and great food to eat. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat 💓

A great place to stay!! Beautiful location, and quiet. the only downside was there was very little space to set toiletries, suitcases, etc. It was still very well worth the stay, though, and we really enjoyed it!

Beautiful townhouse with plenty of extras. Provided soap, shampoo, conditioner, kitchen supplies, laundry supplies, beach chairs, snorkel equipment, towels, etc. Wonderful view from the balcony.

When the toaster oven failed Dennis brought a replacement the same day. Likewise, when we requested additional towels, they were quick to accommodate. The little beach across the street is rocky rather than sandy, so not swimmable, but there was a pool, a hot tub, and a barbecue area.

The home was clean and very inviting. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we could have needed. The hosts were welcoming and available to answer questions but not intrusive. We didn't spend much time in the house except eating and sleeping - but it was nice to have a beautiful home away from home. Very lovely stay. Jack and Jackie, Lee and Christi

We found ourselves in need of last-minute accomodations in the Kona area, and Melissa's place exactly fit out needs! The location is great -- convenient to the airport and a few different beaches, and a bit closer to Mauna Kea than other areas on the Kona side. The space was more than spacious for two, and having the scuba equipment and beach towels was a huge bonus. Especially appreciative that our early check-in request on was accommodated. Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful home, was exactly as pictured and had everything we needed for our stay!

Wow. What a spectacular place. A true eco-jungle-lodge-type experience. The location, the home, the host's communication and aloha spirit - everything was fantastic. Highly recommend 4WD / AWD car for the driveway, although we made it work with a sedan (kind of comical, actually). We are an adventurous family of four adults (2 grown kids) that likes experiences and lodging that would be the opposite of a cruise ship or resort. This place was perfect for us. We will be back!

Place is new and clean, worth staying 100%

Jenne’s place is everything described in the posting. The view was awesome. We enjoyed the garden, the trees and the birds. The welcome cookies was a nice touch - kids enjoyed it. Overall wonderful stay. Would definitely return next time we come to big island.

We can’t say enough good things about our stay at Barry’s Airbnb! Barry was super kind and friendly, and very supportive. The house was exactly as described, beautiful! No regrets, we’d 100% do it again.

Have stayed here several times in different units. It works well for us. If you find older reviews complaining about the water pump being loud its no longer an issue. It was updated recently.

Awesome place and location. Joy was very helpful and quick to respond

Beautiful home in a beautiful location. We very much enjoyed our visit. Thank you

This house was in a beautiful setting with gorgeous grounds. it was very well maintained and comfortable. The house has lots of basics in the pantry and condiments. We loved watching sunset from the lanai through the trees or walking 50 ft to the Pier for a Bayside view (with dolphins often making an appearance). Excellent snorkeling at nearby Manini Beach Park (some of us jumped in at the Pier, too) and by kayak at the Cook Monument across the Bay, or at 2-Step, a 5 minute drive down the road. The AC was good but not usually necessary with great ventilation and fans. The bugs are definitely hoping for snacks, so vigilance to keep a tidy house is crucial (but this is to be expected and wasn't a problem). Dawn was very responsive to a few small problems, and when we couldn't get the dryer to work she had a neighbor offer his so we could finish in time to check out (the dryer was a smart dryer and it out smarted us). We really appreciated how Dawn responded so quickly and helpfully!

We really enjoyed our stay At Gigi's home. She was flexible with check in and quick to respond to any questions we had. Great location and view of the beach from both decks! Great restaurants and shops within walking distance and easy to get to other places. The house was spacious and well equipped with anything we needed in the kitchen, along with beach towels. It was very nice to have ceiling fans in all the rooms and additional fans if needed. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

We had the dream family trip of a lifetime. The kids loved the pool—morning, noon and evening except when we went off on adventures. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance of a rocky beach. The house was roomy and well stocked with two large, long dining tables, one indoors and the other on an enclosed porch outdoors. Perfect for family dining. Joe and Anna were lovely hosts, pleasant and informative. We’d definitely recommend this home to anyone.

We had an absolutely fabulous time in Kona, and Zhe & Sijie’s place was a huge part of it. It made for an amazing home away from home for our two-week stay. The home was exactly as described and as it appeared in the photos - if anything, it was even more perfect in person. Plenty of living space, the kitchen had everything we needed to make breakfast and lunch at the house each day, and the three bedrooms and bathrooms were a perfect fit for my husband and me, our son and my dad. The elevated deck was perfect for reading in the sun or watching the sunset and then watching the stars come out. The pool is small, but a nice place to relax between activities or at the end of a busy day. The house is also in a very nice neighborhood, very secure and close to a grocery store and quite a few restaurants. Zhe and Sijie were fantastic hosts, super quick to reply to any questions we had, and proactively communicating info about check in and check out. 10/10, highly recommend!!

Beth was a terrific hostess! She always responded warmly to us. Her home and lanai are amazing! And the EASY walk to Manini Beach was the huge cherry on top. Thank you Beth for the use of all the beach toys and snorkel gear!!

This home is in a paradise location. We snorkeled everyday at Kahalu’u Beach Park across the road (we rented gear at Snorkel Bobs down the street.) The out side space/lanai and full sliding doors in the living room were wonderful to enjoy the ocean view. Sleeping space with our group was tricky. The house sleeps 4 couples. We 3 couples and had 3 grown boys. 1 got the extra queen bed. Additional sleeping space (trundle and roll away) was tricky and not comfortable for adult sizes. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. The bbq was great to have and clean. There were e-bikes close by. Grocery, shops and many restaurants and beaches within a few minutes.
