Great place to stay!!

Great place to stay. Close enough to town to walk but also easy to catch the shuttle into town with the stop across the road. House is beautiful also. The views from the lanai are very impressive and a great place to enjoy a drink on a hot Kona day. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking to stay in Kona.

Family Vacation

We loved staying at this property. Concierge service was fantastic. Property is located within walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The home is very spacious and well maintained. Caution to summer renters: there is no air conditioning in the main living area and kitchen so it is quite warm in the daytime. At night, there is a ocean breeze to help but still warm. The bedrooms do have air conditioning so sleeping is fine.

From the moment you step in you have arrived...paradise! The location, the property, the home itself. Everything you ever dreamt of. The home is stunning, comfy beds & beautiful decor. Our family was beyond thrilled to stay here. We watched the ever changing tides, turtles, big tuna jumping right from the lanai. Would highly recommend this property.

Aloha peace.

Love this home. It is not only beautiful but located with the ocean waves just off the lanai. It is on a busy road, but noise was not a problem with the two main bedrooms on the backside with the ocean. Only thing is having to backup into driveway off that road. However, if I can do it anyone can with patience. I have stayed here 2 years in a row and hope to return in 2025. Great amenities and clean.

Great place to enjoy HI. Very comfortable house for the four of us. Couple of notes for future renters. Since it’s right on Alii drive you know you’re in for parking challenges. Just back in through the gate and you can fit two cars and plenty of stairs to get your work out in. Well appointed and clean as advertised. Kona coast management was very responsive with our inquiries. Thanks for sharing your spot on the ocean with us.

Incredible sunsets, very well stocked

Very nice house, spent majority of time on the lanai. Fridge water and ice not working they were responsive checking it out but could not fix, should have gotten some ice for us given the cost but no biggie. Very well equipped great for cooking, awesome selection of beach gear which is very helpful and wish was provided by more beach houses. Busy street unfortunately a bit noisy but get used to it and doesn't bother you on the lanai

In the Heart of Kona yet Private!

This is a great spot. Seems busy when you pull in (because it is close to downtown Kona) but the ocean in the back drowns out everything and you have your own private oasis. Swam off the rocks in the back. Swam out to the turn around buoy for the Ironman which is in your back yard. Beds are comfortable and house has tons of space. Kitchen is on third floor but there is an elevator to send your groceries up! 5 beach chairs are great for beach hopping or you can take them out on the rocks in your own back yard!

Incredible views

The house was incredible, even better than the pictures. We enjoyed everything about being here - the views, walking to town, exploring the fish from the lava rocks on the water, cooking together, putting on the green, and of course exploring the island near and far. The house was beautiful and comfortable. Someone put a lot of thought into the decor. Even the driveway and pedestrian gates are beautiful. You can’t go wrong staying here. The only issue which can’t be helped is the noise from the street. The place it really affects in the house is the back bedroom. It didn’t bother us but it’s noticeable. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to the big island. We all wished we were staying here longer!

Beautiful property, amazing beach views/sounds and close to town

The views from the balconies were stunning and we loved falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the ocean. The house itself was great and had all the amenities we needed. The beds were comfortable, and they even had a couple of sheds on the bottom floor with beach accessories like a cooler, chairs, umbrella etc.. Parking was a bit tricky since it's best to back in and the house is on a busy road, however, you get used to just pulling in and waiting on traffic to cease before pulling out to backing in. The property management company was also super informative and emailed us with information several times before the trip started. The only thing that might be a con for some are that climbing up and down the stairs can be tiring for some. Otherwise, I'd say this property was definitely worth it if you want to stay with a large group in the Kona area. I highly recommend it.

Amazing house in great location!

This is a great house that’s well-loved, clean, organized, and has everything you need for a great stay!!! The location is an easy walk or drive into town. Getting in/out of the carport is tricky at first, but definitely not anything that will hinder your stay. The view from the upstairs lanai along is worth it. I loved waking up to delicious coffee, the picturesque view and the sound of waves crashing on the lava rocks. I was concerned about living areas not shaving AC but it was no issue at all. The bedroom AC units worked well and provided nice comfort for restful sleep. All the appliances worked well and came in handy. The house comes with plenty of supplies for dishes, laundry and basic cooking. The passthrough window between the kitchen and lanai table is genius! If we ever travel to Kona again, we would definitely return to this house!

3.5 stars if possible…

Overall, it was great, but the high price definitely made it difficult to look past the inadequacy. The house is right outside of a busy “stop” intersection with a lot of cars. The windows of this home are not sound proof which made it impossible for us to use the bedroom facing the road. The main living floor doesn’t have any AC which is fine, but the ceiling fans are full of dust. The kitchen was well equipped and great to gather the family around. A lot of metal handles throughout the house had rust. If you can’t walk up a flight of stairs with your suitcase, this property is not good for you. Many different types of entry codes/methods made it confusing to check in, and the house keypads stopped working at midnight of the last day instead of 11 am check out time, which caused a lot of confusion. The management team was nice and try to make things right; they actually follow through with your requests. If the price was lower, I would have enjoyed the stay more. The view to the ocean was amazing and got to see some dolphins.

Holualoa was AMAZING!!

From our initial entry and throughout the entire walkthrough, the home did not disappoint. So much space and beauty then there was the view outside…breathtaking! The large sliding doors/screens remained open at all times while we were in the home. I personally enjoyed the lanai every early morning alone with my cup o’ joe and the view. The master suite was nothing short of spectacular with the amazing, spacious rain shower, gigantic walk-in closet it offered so much luxury for my husband and I. Although we’ve been together almost 25 years, we’re not officially married, he made this official by popping the question and presenting me with a gorgeous ring out on our lanai, this made the house even more special for us!! My son, his girlfriend and our niece thoroughly enjoyed it also. From the daily breakfasts prepared by my son and his girlfriend to the times spent eating our meals together either with the large doors open or out on the lanai, it was amazing just being together and celebrating our nieces high school graduation. It was so relaxing coming “home” after each day filled with excursions, shopping, exploring, eating or just having a drink and soaking up the gorgeous sights. We look forward to returning to your beautiful island and whether we stay at this property or another, we will definitely look to your company again. Mahalo, Stephanie

Great Accommodations

Property nicely laid out. Plenty of room for 2 families (4 adults, 4 children). All appliances, flatware, dishes, etc of very high quality and in excellent working condition. Very organized and not just a hodge-lodge of mixed plates/utensils, etc. The bath (multiple spray) showers took a bit of trial/error to learn but every outlet had high pressure and instant hot water. Bedding and linens was excellent as were supplied towels. Dressers, walk-in closets, lighting was plentiful. This rental house (per se) couldn’t have been better! The area was convenient to the local town, shops, gas, groceries, walked to see fireworks (4thJuly), with the only negative being the proximity to the very busy and LOUD Ali’i Drive. If in the ocean side of the house the sound was less noticeable. Also, great backyard with crystal clear water right off the rocks. Unfortunately, access into the water would be challenging. The slick rocks make entry challenging so you have to be very careful! And certainly don’t let children try entry there. Otherwise it’s great fun to walk and explore the tide pools and see all of the fish, crabs, anemones, sea urchins, etc. But even walking around can be dangerous for children on those slick rocks… be careful! With care though - it’s a GREAT adventure for little ones. Overall - had a fantastic time and looking to come back to this same house - in 2025, if not sooner.

New Favorite Place to Stay

The Hale Moana home has become our favorite place to call home in Kona. Unbeatable views and ocean sounds make you instantly relax and know you've arrived in a special place. The entire home, including the beds and bathrooms were incredibly outfitted and the kitchen has anything and everything a novice to a chef would need to make microwave mac-n-cheese to fresh grilled Ahi with all the luxury of a five-star restaurant. We did also experienced the amazing restaurants and downtown fun that is all an easy walk from the front door, but also treated ourselves to meals on the Lani at the dining table. Kona beans were bought just up the hill and ground every morning for a perfect start to our upcoming adventure each morning. When back, a three hole putting green was there for evening fun as well as that amazing view for anyone wanting to just sit and be. It is amazing and we hope you will find it amazing too.
