You’ll have plenty of private off-street parking behind the home. The location is ideal, situated to capture the ocean breezes and the mesmerizing sound of waves crashing on the shoreline. We are nestled between Magic Sands Beach and Snorkel Beach (Kahalu'u Beach), right off popular Ali'i Drive. Both beaches are within walking distance, perfect for leisurely days at the shore.

Amazing Stay!
This property is in an amazing location with close proximity to the beach and downtown Kona. Plenty of parking if you have a car and you can hear the ocean at night! Will stay again!

We loved our stay at Isaac's place! So close to excellent snorkeling. The screened windows let us hear the morning birds... Beautiful. We appreciate the patio barbeque area and the beach equipment.

A few days in Kona
This unit it nice and clean and had everything I needed. The location is excellent and the grounds are lovely. If you’re a light sleeper you might want earplugs (which they had on site). The only reason is because at night you can sometimes hear the louder cars on Ali’i Drive. I enjoyed my stay and would definitely stay there again.

Perfect accommodation for a beach stay
The property was conveniently located with access to multiple beaches that are only a short walk away (10-15 min). It was so nice to have beach equipment (towels, chairs, coolers, snorkels, etc.) available! The room itself was clean and met all our needs.

Amazingly peaceful retreat
When I stepped into this property I actually said “Oh, Wow” out loud. I’ve never done that with any property before. The room was even better than described/shown. It was bigger than I expected it to be, the bed was super comfortable, the frogs at night were brilliant to sleep to, and Isaac was a fantastic host! I really wish I’d had more time there. I slept with all the shutters open and was out like a light each night. Admittedly, I do sleep with an eye-mask to block out light. But I did not need earplugs. It was a perfectly peaceful retreat.

Pleasant Studio
The space was clean and nicely furnished. Easy to follow inst.rutions and check in and out. Comfortable bed, small but adequate kitchen. Only complaint is the noise from the street and the neighborhood birds begins about 6:15 a.m., and there was no going back to sleep!

Perfect home base on the Kona side
This spot was just what we needed for our stay on the Kona side. The apartment felt super clean, was stocked with dishes and small appliances to make our meals, check-in instructions were very thorough, and the location was perfect for an easy stroll to the beach. The unit is small, but still felt very open and airy and had plenty of ocean breeze to stay cool. And our host Isaac was exceptional in his quick communication and he shared tons of great recommendations, too. It was such a nice touch having a spot to share extra/leftover supplies with other travelers also! Only downside was the amount of noise from the street and the other guests, but we expected that being in a shared house. Overall, a wonderful stay and we'd definitely pick this spot again!

Great place
The room was well-provisioned and comfortable. The snorkel and beach equipment was awesome to have! Tub wasn’t very clean and the proximity of the road and early-rising upstairs neighbors made for noisy and early (5am) wakings. The screen walls were otherwise lovely.

About the host

Host profile image
Aloha!
I recently moved to Kona after going to school here when I was 17 (a few years back now haha) I fell in love with the island. I was born in San Clemente and spent the last 20 years before Kona in Santa Barbara California. The weather and water here are second to none, weirdly comforting having the west facing beaches and sunsets. My uncle David moved over here 2012 ish and has been helping me get started with the vacation renting family business :) Looking forward to hosting people from all of the world so they can see this beautiful Island I fell in love with. I'm sure you will fall in love too.

Why they chose this property

We are located a short distance from the hustle and bustle of town, close enough to get to it and yet just outside of it to have peace when you have had enough and want to relax.

What makes this property unique

Walking distance from 2 of the most popular beaches in Kona.
