Absolutely beautiful house in a lovely neighbourhood

I give this rental 5 stars. Gorgeous house, very clean and spasious with large kitcken. We loved the ice machine in the fridge. Our favourite part of the house was the pool. We spent every evening in the well maintained outdoor area. We met Annie's friend Nancy, she was so kind and friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Everything was perfect!

We are a group of 3 couples that came for a beach elopement and 3 of us had 50th birthdays to celebrate!The house and property are gorgeous! The house has absolutely everything we needed, and it is in a perfect location (we had a rental car)There is snorkeling, shopping and activities all within a 10 minute drive.The pool area was our favorite place to be every day and the beds are super comfy too! Annie, the host, was very responsive, helpful and went above and beyond. We truly enjoyed our stay and feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay at this property and would 100% recommend it to everyone.

Beautiful home with refreshing pool

The house looks just like the pictures! This place is in a good, quiet location very close to the main highway and practically within walking distance to magic sands beach (great boogie boarding spot). The property has beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and a cart available for beach excursions. There was an adaptation phase for us with the home not having Air conditioning, but cooling off in the pool and using fans to channel air through the house worked well. We had a wonderful time and spent several days in the house recuperating from big adventure days.

Great resort style pool and backyard!!

I was remiss in not checking if AC was available in this house. Due to the humidity in Kona, it took us a couple of days to get used to it. The many fans in the house helped, but it was the pool area that became our haven every day, after visiting many sites in Kona!!

Holidays at the Hale

My wife and I lived at Annie’s Hale for a month over the Christmas-New Year holidays and had a wonderful time. The Hale was very clean, smelled good and was well equipped. Lots of fans around the house and they were well used and kept us comfortable. Three nice sized bedrooms and two bathrooms gave us lots of room to spread out. Annie’s family business used to be hardscaping so there are lots of reminders throughout the house, from the extensive slate floors in the main rooms to the massaging pebble floor of the bedroom opening to the back yard. It was an adventure to explore. The real star of the property is the huge deck and swimming pool out back. It is an oasis of imaginative hardscaping and tropical plants. The pool is very clean, smell-free, and was ideal for wading with its gently sloped entry – perfect for small children. The water temperature in the deep end could be bracing, but we soon got used to that. We laughed as the local mynas, java sparrows, spotted and zebra doves, and saffron finches jostled for room to bathe and drink in the warm shallows. I also had a welcome visitor, a small 5” lizard, who would often perch on my toes to catch any flies foolish enough to harass me. He must have caught 8 or 10 while we were there. The geckos were also around and so fun to watch. Would we stay at Annie’s Hale again. Definitely, yes.

Charming ocean view home

We extended our stay in Kona last minute and had to find a place to stay for 3 nights. We were fortunate to find Annie's place and enjoyed staying there. The pool area is really lovely and the grandkids loved diving for coconuts in the pool! There is a pretty ocean view from the front porch. Annie is really accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. It was nice to stay in a family neighborhood our last few days in Kona and feel more of a part of the community. Convenient location just a few minutes to Kona, shopping, beaches and Da Poke Shack!

The most like-home VRBO of all time

First off, the photos don’t do this property justice (Annie, for real, have new photos taken!) And I can honestly say we’ve never stayed in a vacation rental that felt more like home. Everything about our stay at Annie’s house was absolutely perfect- including Annie! She is the warmest, most lovely host & we instantly felt like she was family. We arrived after dark so it wasn’t until morning’s daylight that we were able to take in the magic of this property. Its beauty literally brought me to tears. Every detail of the home is well thought out- from the fully stocked kitchen to the closet full of hangers- and the location couldn’t be better. The neighborhood is gorgeous & has sidewalks- so many unique homes. We enjoyed a walk through the neighborhood and down to Ali’i Drive along the ocean every morning. And it’s the perfect jumping spot to anywhere in the island. Annie, thank you for sharing your piece of paradise with others.

Relaxing Big Island Retreat

This house was the perfect home base for our family of six to explore the beautiful beaches of Kona and the Kohala Coast. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood with a view of the pacific from the lanai, it’s just a short drive from restaurants, grocery stores and shops. The house was filled with amenities like a well stocked kitchen, toiletries in the two walk-in shower bathrooms, and beach items for us to use like beach chairs, coolers & boogie boards. As much as we loved the inside of this accommodation, the outside was the real treat and our favorite place to relax, unwind and eat meals. The back patio is large, filled with beautiful tropical plants, tables, lounge chairs, a nice gas grill and a fabulous walk-in salt water lighted pool surrounded by lava rock. The host, Annie, was amazing. She was so friendly and helpful from the time we booked and throughout our stay. Annie was a delight and answered all our questions with top notch recommendations for restaurants and beaches. This was especially helpful since a member of our party was traveling with a wheelchair and crutches and we needed help locating the most accessible beaches for her. We were so happy with every minute we spent here at Annie’s Hale.

About the host

Hosted by Anne Reece

Host profile image
I have been blessed to live in the Islands for about 30 years.Moved to Kona in 1989 from Oahu,raised two daughters in this home.
I own JUST UKES, an ukulele retail shop on Alii Dr here in Kona.
I Decided it's time to allow other families a chance to experience this home and great neighborhood.This home has always been a great 'GATHERING PLACE'. And maybe you'll learn how to play the Ukulele while you are here.Two Ukes and books will be in the house, and a special discount to guests who decide to buy one of their own and take a piece of Hawaii home with you...
I live in a separate studio under this home.Very private from main home.Most guests have a hard time finding me! So Home,driveway and pool are all yours.So far everyone has enjoyed having me on site. At first I was nervous about how this might affect the beauty of this vacation rental.It's been great from both sides! You have a personal Concierge,and I meet wonderful people on vacation! And then there's Kirby,my wonderful Sheltie!!! Loves everyone.... So if you love dogs,he's your doggie fix,if not,you won't even know he's on site.I take him most everywhere with me.
Remember I've lived on the Big Island for along time,so I can direct you in the right direction.
With Aloha,
Annie

Why they chose this property

My 2 daughters learned how to drive on this street ,and so have many others after them.This home has always been a gathering place for friends and family and I hope it will be for yours also.Close to many activities,town, beaches,and I am always close by for any questions you may have.I only have this one property so you are my priority.

What makes this property unique

Salt water pool with an access known as Beach Access,because you can walk into it like you would a beach. Many children have learned how to swim here and it's also great to sit in a chair and read a book or strum an Ukulele....
Kitchen has room for many cooks. 6 burner gas stove and 2 ovens.
Slate in main living areas,so don't worry about coming in wet from the pool.
Watch the waves from kitchen bar area,while you are sipping your coffee.I usually walk down to see them up close.I also walk at night in this neighborhood,very safe...I hope you take the chance to experience this home away from home....
