Unique Private Suite, Million Dollar View

LeeanneRating, 5 stars1 week ago

A slice of paradise sums up our unique stay at Anne’s Octagon bedroom and sacred space. Every day was an adventure with geckos 🦎 visiting frequently, just to grace us with their beautiful presence. The incredible ocean views near Caption Cook Monument and surrounding areas were awesome too! We were spoiled by Kona coffee, Papaya, other exotic fruits and fresh tomatoes 🍅 dropped off daily by our Hosts. The night sky was filled with birds singing, crickets 🦗 humming, frogs 🐸 chirping and Organic Nature sounds that sounded like a Forest Meditation making for a very good night’s sleep. Thank you Anne & Dan for your outstanding hospitality this trip is going down in the History Books! Infinite 💜 & Light, LeeAnne & Kenny

Beautiful house with tasteful furnishing. A bit cramped if the tv is pulled out because the tv is set up on a rollable cabinet but still very beautiful and comfortable place to use as base for exploring the volcano national park. Host is friendly and communicative.

Whale-Watcher’s Haven: Kona Studio

KevinRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Responsive host, provided many essentials, decent accommodations. Location isn’t amazing, but that’s obvious before you book it. Was nice to have a host that didn’t have fifty requirements and expect you to do an entire maid service for them on the place while on vacation.

Kona Sunset Ohana

ZacharyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Will and Mir’s place is absolutely beautiful. I wish we could’ve stayed more than one night, but this was a last minute booking for us and had another destination the next day. One of the neatest and cleanest homes I’ve stayed in on Air B and B! They were extremely responsive to my questions and offered helpful suggestions. There is a binder in the room with a ton of information on local beaches, attractions and restaurants. Be sure and check it out. We will stay here again in a heartbeat if ever in the area!
