Great Family spot
This is a good size property for a large family group. We used all spaces. This property just needs some TLC. It is a bit worn and dated. Items like 4 blender, but only one that worked or matched. Several coffee pots, but one that was usable. Mix and match dishes, pots, pans and search for lids, etc. Deck chairs that were unusable because they were torn, etc. Liked the location. Asking us to wash towels, but no detergent available. We had fun, but probably would not rent here again.

Family gathering place
We really enjoyed our stay. Emmy was helpful with questions when we called. The house had large living space areas which was nice for our large family gathering. We had plenty of room to spread out. The rooms were spacious. Beds were good. The setting with a view of the golf course was pleasant. The pool got lots of use by our younger grandsons. The house made a great launching point for our adventures on BI.

Manage your expectations
First, I have stayed at dozens of VRBO's over the last decade so I believe I have reasonable expectations for a decent stay. Let's start with the good news: 1. Pre-trip communication & check-in were handled well. 2. Location is excellent, including privacy from neighbors and quiet street. 3. Plenty of space in the house and on the property. Not a huge yard but enough room to enjoy outside space. 4. Pool was a hit. We had 14, including 7 grandkids, 6 of whom are grade school or younger. It was perfect for all of us! 5. We love to cook. Kitchen was fine, grill was dirty and had to be scraped off before we used it but no big deal. Now, for the not so good news. 1. Houses in Hawaii that claim air conditioning can be misleading for those of us from the mainland. AC in Hawaii almost always means window units which equate to uneven cooling. This house was no exception. I ended up sleeping on the couch because the master bedroom was so hot every night. You're lucky if the house maintains about 77 degrees. I suggest at night turning the attic fan on high and opening all the windows. & sliding doors. Keep the screens shut!!!!! 2. We had a few problems when we arrived, the biggest being the washing machine was on the blink. This was a huge problem for us since we told our crew to pack light and do a load of wash every day or so. I contacted the owner and was told the door didn't always shut correctly, but I could get some duck tape to hold it shut. When I said that wasn't OK and I expected to hear her solution by the next day I was ignored. She never called back. To be clear, in the contract it says broken appliances do not equal money back. So, you're just SOL if this happens while you're there. Not to worry, however, I left a full role of duck tape on the washer. Also, the drier took 3 cycles to dry beach towels. just hang them on the pool fence for faster results. 3. Kitchen fuse kept cutting off when the microwave and coffee maker were operating at the same time and you had some lights on so you could see what you were doing. Didn't bother to report this after my concerns about the washing machine were ignored. (Owner may debate this or claim she didn't ignore me, but trust me, she did.) Bottom line this a 3+. Great location, plenty of room, good pool but poor customer service from the owner with some key appliances that don't work. It's as good as you can get in this price range, so pack your duck tape, or use mine and enjoy!

Interesting Property
The house and yard seemed a bit worn but for a family stay with young children.it was perfect. Not surprising, the pool was a hit, almost every afternoon the kids were in the water. Lots of pool toys available, plus lifejackets and floaties. The house was big and roomy. Odd configuration of some of the rooms and bathrooms but it worked out great for 3 families. Hot tub did not work properly even after pointing it out to the owner. The cover was fixed but the tub leaked most of the water when it was used. That was our only issue.

Hawaii family gathering
Renting the property was easy. The home needs a lot of repairs and upgrades. The last few years have been challenging for home rentals no doubt so we didn’t fuss about worn out sheets, broken dishwasher racks, broken refrigerator drawer, totally worn out hot tub cover etc. We hope the owner will be able fix things soon. It is a nice location but definitely needs help. We still had a wonderful family gathering.

Propterty Not As Shown In Photos
I first want to say the property served our needs. The beds were comfortable and once the pool was cleaned per my request (green algae all over the deep end walls) it was a fantastic place for my grandkids to play. The home definitely needs some major TLC. First impressions are very important. I have rented many homes and condos through different vendors and have always left glowing reviews. It appeared to us that this property is kept just repaired enough to make it rentable. The photos are very misleading. The yard is nothing like the photos portray it. Very small and a lot of dirt and little grass. Not sure when the last time the yard was taken care of but it appeared leaves and trash were just blown off to the side and not cleaned up. The sheer curtains in the dining room and off the big family room upstairs all have numerous small tears in them. One of the chairs in the dining room is broke (was brought to the owners attention by people who stayed there in October) and was not fixed. The wall above the tv in the big family room has lots and lots of gecko poop on the ledge (this was also brought to the owners attention in October). The wall directly behind the sink has paint pealing like crazy. The transition going from tile to hardwood for the bedroom off the kitchen area has about a 1/2 inch gap with a rough edge (they sell the transition pieces at hardware stores for just a few dollars). The bathtub in the bathroom off the kitchen has rusty metal pieces that must have been from some type of wall mount. Not safe to give a child a bath in there. The bunkbeds are actually in the laundry room. Not sure when the last time the pool deck was cleaned off, especially the corner with the potted plant. All of the cement areas were covered in dirt. We had to sweep them off the first day. We had to purchase batteries for over half the remotes for the air conditioners and TVs. It wasn't that they were dead, there weren't any in them. There were only 2 garbage bags for the kitchen area and none for any of the bathrooms. One roll of toilet paper on the dispenser and one under the sink in each bathroom. Not quite enough for a 10 day stay. Also only a half a roll of paper towels in the kitchen. We had to go purchase a bunch cleaning supplies. I don't know who cleans the house but I don't think they do a very good job. We made the best of our vacation and still had a great time. I'm not willing to recommend this property to friends and family.

Good house for family trip
The house is good but the outside spaces were only fair and misrepresented on the website. There was a lot of dead vegetation that needs to be cleaned up. The communication with the owner/ manager was great at the beginning but non existent when we had questions. Like other reviews expect to buy paper products and cleaning supplies. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and the grill was great. The pool was very secure and there were pool toys. There are also a lot of sand toys for kids to play with.

Great location
The house is in a great location. Great neighborhood. Easy walk to the beach, market, gas station, restaurants all near by. The property manager was extremely responsive to all our needs. The house has everything you need to enjoy a great vacation. The only negative things were that there is a leak in ceilings of one of the rooms. The water leaked down to the carpet and caused a mildewy smell, pillows are old and should be replaced or you should bring your own and some (not all) of the bathroom set ups are definitely weird (no privacy) . Other than that- the pool, spa and ability to cook your own food is a great thing. The swing and outside picnic table are a great addition. You can relax outdoors and enjoy a great breakfast and dinner outdoors.

Awesome Stay
We really enjoyed our stay Hale Hoku'ao. The owner was responsive and kind throughout the stay. The beach behind the homes across the street is beautiful but not a place you'd get into the water. It was beautiful to sit and enjoy the sounds and sights of the ocean. The neighborhood was quiet and was perfect for our group. There is a grocery store and pharmacy nearby if needed too. Check in and check out were a breeze and no contact, which was appreciated in this time with covid. The house was clean. It seems like they really care for their home and renters. It rained really hard one of the days we were there and there was a slight leak. It didn't inconvenience us but we wanted her to know. She had someone out right away to handle it. She was very fair and kind. The pool was wonderful to help wear out the kids on days that we took long car rides to see the volcano and Wiapio Valley. There were also tons of beautiful birds that stopped by the back yard for viewing. Oh another nice touch was that on one of the days (we stayed a week) the man in charge of the yard came by for maintenance. He knocked and let us know he was there and why. I really appreciated that.

The good and the bad
The Good: Overall we had a good experience. Swimming pool was great! Location was good. There were adequate kitchenware, dishes and appliances, but only two kitchen towels for 8 people. The Bad: 1. Despite having pre-paid the demanded cleaning fee, and the owner's written list of expectations/demands re: cleaning the place at check out, not only for final cleaning, but ALSO for the entire stay, supplies of paper towels, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, dishwashing liquid soap, laundry soap, and garbage bags were depleted within 2 days of our 7 day stay (On the bright side? was that there were enough dishwasher packets.) We purchased toilet paper and paper towels on day 3 2. I was disappointed that after spending so much for the place, plus cleaning it (per owners instructions and specifications), that those supplies were not made available. Again, we did most of the cleaning before we left. Not enough laundry soap to complete the washing (the owners written instructions/expectations)... 3.We were there for vacation, not to spend our last night and day before our flight, doing the cleaning folks job. 4. One of the bedrooms has a bathroom with a wall that does not go up to the ceiling so that the bath room is essentially open to the next bedroom. Lack of privacy big time!! 5. Hot tub must of had a broken filter because debris stayed in the water even though the water heated and the jets were on. Email to the owner promised the "pool guy" would come and fix things. However, that did not happen during our stay. 6. The kitchen circuit breaker tripped. The breaker box was hard to find until we noticed that a framed print in the short hallway between the kitchen and bathroom looked askew. Lo and behold, the breaker box was behind it! Who goes out of their way to cover up a breaker box?

Spacious home perfect for hosting a multi- family gathering. My adult children and families all had their own overnight space. Space for those with no family, too.

About the host

Hosted by Emmy, the owner and manager of KonaHome Vacation Rentals

Host profile image
Aloha! This is Emmy. I am the owner and manager of these lovely vacation rentals in Kailua-Kona of Hawai’i. I have been working in Silicon Valley for over 25 years and worked as a software engineer and entrepreneur. I founded several startup companies in Silicon Valley, built several successful businesses, and pursued my entrepreneurial dreams there. I loved living in California and still consider it my "Home on the Mainland."
My lifelong dream has always been to live in Hawaii - paradise on earth. My first truly memorable experience in Hawaii was my first vacation in Hawaii. I visited each of the Hawaii islands. I fell in love with Kona. The Big Island is the best. There is so much to do here, with crystal clear water for snorkeling, rainforests, waterfalls, and volcanoes to explore, and mountains that almost reach the stars.
Besides high tech, one of my lifelong interests has been real estate. I love exploring the properties in every destination I visit. Combining my love for Hawaii and homes, I now own 5 beautiful vacation rental houses.
I have put much effort into every house to make them as comfortable and welcoming as your own home. I use the latest technologies in rental houses, including a smart lock, a comprehensive customized online welcome book for each guest, and much more.
I built the best team which is responsible and responsive to your inquiries and needs. We live close to all of our rental houses, we are always available for our guests. We do our best to provide the best services.
I've always felt at home with the tropics and the ocean. From volcanoes to waterfalls, my favorite part of Kona is the snorkeling that gives you a peek into the vast and amazing ocean life. Kailua-Kona, the town itself also has a great, laid-back vibe and easy access to beaches, stores, farmer's markets, and restaurants.
