Vacation rentals in Hawaii

location was centrally located between Hilo and the National Park for the volcanoes. it was easy to navigate and very clean and it had everything we needed. thank you Daryl

Perfect stay for 2 people, extremely clean, quiet location, accurate description, washer & dryer available, responsive host, walking distance to beach, snorkeling and beach items available to use. I would describe it as cozy and has a small patio with table, chairs and lounge seat to enjoy a small zen garden. Host met us during our stay and gave us the most delicious, farm fresh bunch of bananas, quite unlike the store brought variety. Overall a terrific value for the Kona area, highly recommended, I would book again.

A must stay if you are considering! Perfect for a few days to experience upcountry Maui. Cozy, romantic, and we hope to come back one day!

First of all, the area was amazing!! Manini beach was literally a 2-3 minute walk down the road for great snorkeling (gear is provided, if you need it) with a path for some amazing sunsets. There are a couple of fruit stands in the neighborhood, which was great for my mother’s daily banana stroll. You can see the bay from the amazing lanai that we spent so much time on to watch the snorkelers, kayakers and dolphins. The house itself was great! Split into half, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on either side, separated by an open concept living room and kitchen. The dining room is outside…where else would you want to sit down and eat? There were A/Cs in the bedrooms if you needed them, but the ocean breeze was usually enough for most of my party. There were lots of spices in the cabinets for cooking and some staples leftover from past renters. The long, winding and narrow roads make some great scenery, but also make your trip to anywhere else a bit long. I would definitely stay again.

Amazing stay. Everything we could have ever wanted for two days and nights of our honeymoon. Wish we could have stayed longer - we recommend with confidence.

Beautiful home with just a short walk to Maku'u Point, which we took frequently. The pool and hot tub were enjoyed daily and the kitchen was nice and big to fit our big family. It was our own private paradise. We also appreciated that the house included sustainable features, like solar panels and rain water use. We couldn't have asked for a better experience on the big island. Made our time there very memorable.

Our family of four had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Poipu. From the moment we arrived, we felt at ease—the location is unbeatable, just a short drive from the beach, making it effortless to enjoy the stunning Kauai scenery. The house itself was everything we could have hoped for. The pool and spa were a fantastic way to unwind after a day of adventure, and the fully equipped kitchen truly made it feel like home. One of our favorite highlights was picking fresh bananas from the garden and using the Vita Mix blender to make delicious smoothies every day—such a special touch! The bedrooms were equipped with air conditioning units which ensured we slept comfortably every night. It’s clear that every detail in this home was thoughtfully considered to provide an exceptional experience. If you're looking for the perfect island retreat for your family, this is it!

This was a beautiful clean place to stay on the big island. Close to shops, restaurants, beaches. We sat on the lanai every morning for breakfast and it was perfectly quiet and lovely. Tom is a wonderful host

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and well-maintained home. The ocean view from the balcony was stunning, and the house was tidy and comfortable. Communication with the host was prompt and friendly, making the experience smooth from start to finish. It’s a great base for exploring the island—just keep in mind that having a car is essential. Thank you for a beautiful stay!

Great airbnb! Beautiful clean and everything we needed. Khym was super friendly and responsive. Banana bread she left was delicious. Good location! We will be back!

Lucky to grab this location for a few days. Accommodations were great for three parties of folks. Especially great one couple could bring their dog. Unfortunately, we missed the volcano eruptions, which started the day we checked out for home. They seemed to have everything you might need and super cozy, including the reclining couch sections were comfortable enough to sleep in!!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful home atop a hill in Kona. The ocean views and vibrant sunsets were breathtaking. The home was spotless, well-appointed, and offered a peaceful, private setting. Friendly neighbors and excellent bird-watching added to the charm. The host was hospitable and quick to communicate, making the experience seamless. Highly recommend for a serene getaway!

Absolutely gorgeous views, we enjoyed them morning, noon and night!! Plenty of space!! Extremely clean! Well stocked kitchen for cooking. Great hot tub! Would stay again!

It is even better in person. Everything you need to enjoy the island comes with this Airbnb. Ten adults and a toddler and we had enough room and beds to accommodate all of us. Beautiful neighborhood and quiet. North side of the island is definitely greener and rainier than the south. Beautiful beaches too. It is a drive to get to the south side of the island. Over an hour. You definitely need a vehicle to get around. Would stay here again.

Noelani’s house was the perfect home base for all our Big Island adventures. We loved having the main house space and attached guest house for travelling with our 3 kids for their week long school break. The space was beautiful decorated, Hawaiian themed and had everything we needed to enjoy our time on the Big Island (beach towels, beach chairs, etc). It’s easy to see why Noelani’s house books up fast and glad we were able to call it home for the week! Thanks for sharing your home with us! Aloha until next time!

this house takes you back to old Hawaii. the pictures shown is very accurate so this may not be for everyone. The bathtub and stairs may give older folks a difficult time but we were transported in time. Beautiful house. so peaceful

This cabin was a nice place to stay while we spent time in Kona. We appreciated that it felt isolated while still being close to everything we wanted to do. Shucheng was very helpful and answered all of our questions.

Private, rustic bungalow on the Big Island’s remoter southern coast. The bungalow has a view of the ocean from the bedroom windows and porch. Also, great view of the stars at night. The friendly hosts are in an adjacent house and proactively provided instructions and local recommendations. They were very responsive to our requests. The house is a little off the Belt Road about midway between Kailua Kona and the Volcano National Park. It is about 30 minutes from the Black Sand Beach. The hosts provided snorkeling equipment, boogie boards, and beach towels at no extra charge.

This house is just as tranquil and majestic as it looks in the photos. We loved falling asleep to the sounds of frogs and birds, drinking our coffee outside in the morning in a jungle oasis, and dipping in the hot tub in the afternoon. It’s a short drive to Volcano National Park and was the perfect home base while we were explored the area. We will definitely come back and would recommend to all!

Great location next to Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. You can walk about 1.5 miles and be standing on the rim of an active volcano or take a 5-minute or so drive to park and walk to the various viewpoints along the rim. Watching the birds on the deck was a definite plus. If you wake up around sunrise - don't bring an alarm clock. The roosters in the area will tell you when the sun starts to rise. The Wi-Fi/internet connection was slow and at times spotty. We were still able to do a little work (usually work a few days during our stays in vacation rentals). If it's not raining around sunset, try to get a clear view of Mauna Loa and you will be able to see almost the full volcano and an amazing sunset. Speaking of Mauna Loa, highly recommend taking the winding Mauna Loa road to its end. It's only 11.5 miles but about 3/4th of that distance is either 25 mph or 15 mph - so it takes about 45 minutes. Stop and walk around the various Kapuki along the way - well worth it!

We visited Hawaii for my daughter's wedding on May 5 th 2025. During our visit the Volcano was erupting and we could see the glow from all windows of the house. The place had all the comforts of home in a secluded private jungle.

This is the only airbnb that we have stayed at twice because we loved it so much the first time. Jeff's airbnb is absolutely beautiful and located within minutes of the Volcanoes National Park entrance. We're also grateful for Jeff as a generous host; the first time, he was extremely kind when we had to change our reservation due to COVID, and the second time, he let us know that the volcano was erupting so that we had the opportunity to see it. We hope to return a third time!

We had an amazing stay! The place was huge, clean, and perfectly located—just a short drive to the volcano. We were incredibly lucky to be there during an eruption and managed to avoid the crowds and get one of the best viewing spots thanks to how close we were. It truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Highly recommend this spot if you’re hoping to explore the volcano and surrounding areas with ease.

Dawn has a little slice of paradise and the fact that she shared it with us was a blessing. She is very kind and took the time to chat with us and introduce us to her dogs. Her property is extremely resourceful and the work she's done inspired my wife and I. It was a lovely experience
