About this property

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.
* 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.

Outstanding View Property with Professional Accommodating Host
Had a great vacation with our sons and their wives. Spent a lot of time playing golf, but while on property everything worked well and was very comfortable- best view on the island. Cindi was great- easy and quick communication- very accommodating in every regard. We would definitely stay here again next time in Kona. Mahalo, Cindi!

Excellent!
Cindi's place in Kona comes exactly as advertised and was perfect for our multigenerational family holiday. The house and its amenities completely met our needs and expectations. Of particular note, the kitchen supplies and pantry were exceptionally well provisioned and the beach and pool accessories and toys were plentiful and well-used by our group.

Nothing Short of Amazing!
This house is easily a 15/10 - there is nothing not to love! It is clean, in a great location, the pool was perfect, but if you are looking for a view, then look no further because the view here cannot be beat! This was the vacation of a lifetime for us, in large part because of this home. We plan to return as soon as we can, if this is available, you will not regret staying here! The master bedroom was so beautiful, the kitchen so spacious and well equipped. Everything was laid out so well, lots of instructions and communications. We really felt at home. We had 7 people and there was lots of room for everyone. The most beautiful home I have ever stayed in, thank you so much for sharing it with us!!

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!

Great space for a multigenerational family trip
The home was very comfortable and well-equipped and communication with the owner was easy/smooth. My husband and I traveled with my 82 year old mother and our young adult sons. The beds were comfortable. My mom took the master suite so that she did not have to go up and down the stairs and my husband and I were comfortable in the queen bed downstairs. The swimming pool was awesome and the views of the sunsets from the pool and lanais were stunning. We cooked up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen. There is a coffee grinder and every utensil you could want. The outside grill worked really well. I cooked fish purchased at the local fish market, steaks, pork tenderloin, baked cookies and made a pie. We enjoyed family movie nights (the tv has Roku and we signed into our personal accounts), showing our young men movies they had not seen before (such as Rainman and the Untouchables). Oh, and we did leave the house occasionally to check out the beaches, volcano (which was erupting) and took a whale watching boat trip. It was an amazing trip and we came back refreshed/renewed. You will not regret staying at this wonderful home.

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.

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!

Perfect stay
The proprety is very nice with all accomodities. Well situed. The communications were easy. The only thing is the fact, as specify by the owners, that there is no AC. So some evenings, the house was at 30•C. But during the night and in the morning the house was able to refresh itself. Even so, we pass a very good Time.

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!

Great home for big family
We stayed for 6 days in this residence! Great home with lots of amenities a bit outdated but great for a big family. Warnings: neighbors can be really loud and you can be overcharged for cleaning! You are charged over $300 for cleaning and on top of that they can keep a portion of your deposit if the cleaning crew think they need to do their job! Make sure you return the place as you got it if you want your deposit back fully!

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.

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, relaxing home for large family!
We recently stayed in Kona for the IM, and found the location of this home fantastic as if was not too far to drive into town, but far enough away for a peaceful, relaxing stay! Our family of 8 (with our 2 older children often visiting for meals) had plenty of space when we were home, many options for quiet spaces or meals, and of course we loved the pool, and watching sunset every night was just beautiful. The house is exactly as offered from the pictures, and the master bedroom (with renovated bathroom) is fantastic. We cooked many meals in the kitchen, and grilled downstairs often during our 10 day stay, and appreciated that many of the basic kitchen condiments were kept in the pantry! There was also a day home where the younger kids found the games and jigsaw cupboard, and had a great time, and the pool toys were available (to which we added a few more before we left!!) I would love to stay there again, especially during a quieter time in Kona, and would have no hesitation in recommending the property.

Spacious family home in beautiful location
Our extended family stayed at the home earlier this February. Such a nice place. Clean, secure, well situated and immediately felt like home. The house easily allows for enough space for 4 adults and 3 children. The kitchen was big enough to accommodate the main cook and 2 assistants too. The master bedroom mattress was exceptionally comfortable and no one had any trouble sleeping. After some time we found the faster routes to and from places so we didn't have to spend as much time on the #11 (painfully slow for visitors wanting to go north to Kua, Hapuna or other beaches. We've stayed at many VRBOs and this was right up there. In fact, we spend almost every dinner at home. Maybe a few more frying or sauté pans in the kitchen? B&B next door was super quiet as were the surrounding neighbours.

Lovely stay at Kona View House
My family and I stayed for a week in this home. Some highlights...the main lanai was very comfortable and a wonderful place to read a book (even on a rainy afternoon), the kitchen has been newly remodeled and we loved cooking on the induction range, the sunsets were quite stunning. We took many day trips from the home to Volcano, Mauna Kea, coffee farms, and Kohala beaches. I really love Kona overall, from the access to great snorkeling beaches, quaint nearby towns, and really amazing fruit and coffee farms. We thought the location was very good and it was a quick drive to the store for food or any forgotten items. In fact, we tried to pack light knowing we could pick up anything we needed in the main shopping area in Kona. One thing visitors should be aware of is that you do have to be relatively quiet when outside day and night. Loud voices carry in this area, which is probably the case with most Kona homes unless you go into the higher elevations where properties are sometimes larger. Overall, I would certainly recommend this home for a comfortable and relaxing vacation.

Best House in Kona
This was our second time staying in this beautiful house perched up high in Kona. After our last stay we were determined to try to get back to "The Kona House " as it became known in our many retellings of our time in Hawaii. We thought it was perfect last time but discovered the renovations in the kitchen had improved on perfection. The house is spacious yet homely. It is clean and comfortable. Our hardest decisions each day as we woke up happy to still be on holiday in this lovely house were, do we go out and explore the island or stay home and enjoy the house? We did a bit of both. We drove to the summit of Mauna Kea ( a must do ), drove to the Volcano National Park ( looks like Mars ), to various small beaches to snorkel and to Captain Cook for Antique shopping. Other days we stayed home and lazed by the pool with a book, sat on the Lanai and watched through binoculars, whales breaching in the ocean down below or cooked local fish and steaks on the bbq. I can not recommend this house highly enough and hope we will be returning again sometime soon. In the meantime I will daydream about our time in "The Kona House".

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.

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.

About the host

Hosted by Cindi Anderson

Host profile image
We are an artist and an engineer, recently retired. We love brew pubs and happy hours with friends (our profile photo shows us at Humpy's Alehouse ) We started coming to Hawaii in 1990 and kept returning to the Big Island for it's raw beauty and Aloha spirit. We now are lucky enough to spend several months a year here, and the remainder skiing and biking at our home in Idaho.

Why they chose this property

Gorgeous unobstructed views, high-end quiet neighborhood. When you see it, and see our views, you will understand why!

What makes this property unique

Our home is one of the original Kona vacation rental homes (when we started in 2006 everyone told us we were crazy renting out a high end house with great furniture!) But we know what people want and need when they are on vacation and have tried to provide those things. This is not an investment to us, we live here part of the year. This home is very personal and important to us and we treat our guests as if they are family. The house is in a great, safe neighborhood, with amazing views, but it is close and convenient to everything. The backyard is the best! You will love it! It's so peaceful, with all the tropical plants, the views, the pool, all to yourself. Whether you stay home all day, or return after a long day at the beach or the volcano, it's a wonderful place to relax. You can lounge and watch the kids play and swim (there are lots of floaties and pool toys), someone can get the BBQ going on the gas grill, or just relax on the lounge chairs, or on one of the many lanais. It really is a special place. It's one of those places you'll think about when you are told to go to your happy place. You'll be back in my yard in your mind, marveling at the shades of blue and turquoise in the Pacific Ocean ;-)
