Kai Malolo - Amazing Eco-friendly Oceanfront Home!
We chose this property because of the close proximity to the ocean. There is no beach but you can definitely hear the waves crashing and it was very tropical. Besides the house next door, it is very private. Plenty of kitchen appliances, plateware, and silverware. The neighbors were friendly, including their dog. Overall, we had a great stay would definitely recommend this house if you are looking for peaceful, quiet time on the island.

Private Pool - 180° Ocean View - Minutes to Beach
This was the best first Airbnb experience. We were celebrating our 10-year anniversary with our 3 young kids. This home was just beautiful. The photos do not do enough justice. The home was super spacious and TV in both rooms. Our 5yr old enjoyed the jacuzzi because it was shallow and warm. The pool was huge with a diving board. It was nice having the outdoor kitchen and grill. We were able to prepare our food while also watching the kids swim. We enjoyed her papayas, avocados, and mango. Ms. Sandra shared with us her organic eggs from her chickens, Kale, beets, basil, and lettuce from her garden. Every morning when I woke up, I couldn't wait to open the curtains and windows to see the view and hear the birds. I could go on and on about this place. Thank you Ms. Sandra. It was such a pleasure meeting you and spending time in you beautiful home🙏

Tropical Oasis Home with Pool and Steps to Beach
We had the dream family trip of a lifetime. The kids loved the pool—morning, noon and evening except when we went off on adventures. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance of a rocky beach. The house was roomy and well stocked with two large, long dining tables, one indoors and the other on an enclosed porch outdoors. Perfect for family dining. Joe and Anna were lovely hosts, pleasant and informative. We’d definitely recommend this home to anyone.

Puna Rainforest Retreat Hotspring Rainbow Cottage
I am 1 completely enamored by the land,2 extremely grateful for Jacklynn and her beautiful energy. I am a 29 year woman and this was a solo trip. Although I was in the middle of the rainforest I never felt alone. Jacklynn gave the perfect balance of space & independence but also was very helpful and hands on when requested. She was very knowledgeable on the land and even took me on the trail walk when I was too nervous to go alone. Hearing the frogs at night was a unique experience. The rainbow cottage was perfect for me by myself but had enough space to fit 4 people comfortably. This was the best experience I’ve had traveling and I WILL BE BACK. Thank you Jacklynn for EVERYTHING! I also got an hour long massage down the road with Sid! I’d highly recommend the experience of her personally but also her services. Thank you!!

Private Pool & Spa-Beautiful Oceanview Home
Gorgeous property and friendly, accommodating hosts! We enjoyed our stay and found it very comfortable for our party of four adults and two kids. Loved having our Kona coffee on the patio soaking in the beautiful view! Totally serene and private. Our five year old loved the "jungle" atmosphere and pool. Cant wait to come back :)

Big Family Home, Pool, Views, Yard, Lanai, Clean!
Bryn & Andy’s place was perfect. Tons of things to do with kids. Safe, quiet (the birds not so much) peaceful neighborhood. Woke up every morning relaxed and enjoyed the sounds of the island (and the turkeys) while the kids swam. Have every amenity listed plus many more! Perfect house for a family with children. Hosts were very responsive! And proactive communicated to make sure our stay was great and check in and check out were easy as could be! Thank you!!!

Halia Hale
We loved every minute at Nicki's place. She met us at the door for a really helpful welcome tour and was always very quick to respond to inquiries about things to do in Kona and beyond. The beds were super comfy and the house was airy with tons of big windows and doors with screens, so it was a lovely place to relax. The pool is way bigger than we expected - perfect for laps after sitting in the sauna. The water temp was pretty cold, though, as it's not heated and it had been cloudy for a while, so the kids didn't really use the pool. But they kept busy by picking fruit from the many trees surrounding the house. Oh and the view, of course - amazing! Very close to the house is Mountain Thunder Coffee, which offers free tours of their facility so you can see why Kona coffee is so unique - a big hit for kids and adults alike. We can't recommend Nicki's place more highly - would have loved to stay longer!

Beautiful Home With Private Pool on Kealakekua Bay
We loved our stay at Mary’s place! Although it was a little more remote than expected, we appreciated the access to the different beautiful beaches in the neighborhood. The snorkeling at Manini Beach was spectacular! Because we had our 8 month old granddaughter with us, we also spent a lot of time in the beautiful pool. The “glamping” aspect of our stay was fun and we enjoyed the sounds of nature, particularly our rooster alarm at the crack of dawn which certainly helped us get our days started. We would highly recommend Mary’s place and wouldn’t hesitate staying again when on the island.

Island Views Hale
We have stayed here before. The host is very responsive whenever I reach out. The place is in a nice neighborhood. Safe to go for a walk or a run. Beds are comfortable and has all necessities. Most likely will be back in town for work in the future and will be staying here if available.

Knox Dojo - Full House 2b/2b
Joe’s place was our favourite Airbnb we have ever stayed in. The place is modern, clean and spacious. Joe has gone out of his way to cover every little detail. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Kona!

NEW- Hula House w/ AC - 3 Bedroom - Hilo Town
The home was beautiful and had plenty of space for my family of four. The AC was a huge plus. And the nature sounds were unbeatable! We walked to downtown Hilo lots and had good food nearby. Would definitely come back on our next stay in Hilo! Loved the local feel of this side of the island.

Hale Aka'ula, house of the red sunset
Perfect location for a peaceful stay on the Big Island! Jenne's place was spotless and she has thought of everything to ensure you have great stay at her house! Beach chairs, snorkel gear, cribbage board, you name it...it was there:) we will be back!

World Class Vacation Home
The pictures of this house do not do it justice. The entire property is incredibly lush and tropical, we felt like we were on our own private island. I could have stayed at the house for our entire trip and would have been happy!

3 Bed/2.5 Bath Hawaiian Sunrise Vacation
We came to Big Island to enjoy calm and recharge. Eliot's place offers just like that as his house is spacious and plenty of space between properties with peaceful surroundings. because the home sits in a large ground in suburb of Hilo. Downtown Pahoa is close so you can dine out and get shopping done easily if you want. Eliot is kind and smart owner to take care of home and our needs. He was always responsive and come back with a solution for our questions.

Mauna Kea Cottage
Quick responses and very helpful when issues came up.

Tropical Large Space - Screened Lanai!
This place was totally awesome! It was so beautiful and peaceful! We slept so well! The house was well stocked with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. Denise and Brian are the best hosts, making sure we had everything we need. Itineraries were provided so we were never bored. We will definitely be back for a stay in the beautiful rainforest on the Big Island! 🏝️

Serene Custom Home by Kehena Beach Stunning Garden
Great fit for our laid back group, a serene slice of heaven in Puna Palisades neighborhood. Karan communicated routinely with helpful information for outside visitors. Renters should be aware that check in process is different than AirBnB messages -- there is no code emailed, rather check in direct with owners. All good :-)

Spring Sale-Beautiful 3 bed island home ocean view
A great place that fits our family needs- convenient location with toys and towels for sand play and washer/dryer available in the shared garage. Bring your own hair conditioner if you need to use it.

House of Paddles, POOL, Ocean close near Hilo
We loved the property. We definitely appreciated all the switches being labeled and the property was beautiful. The pool was clean and a lot of fun, and there were plenty of dishes, etc. in the kitchen to satisfy multiple meals with 7 guests.

Large, Modern, Cozy Oasis - Central A/C - Pets OK
We very much enjoyed our stay. It was peaceful and quiet and there was plenty of room for our group of 10 to spread out. The beds were comfortable and the sheets soft. Plenty of fluffy towels. Good, fresh coffee beans. Grilled steaks one night and had a big variety of seasonings to choose from. Grandkids voted it their favorite Airbnb. Mahalo!

Beautiful, Relaxing, Eco Friendly Tropical Retreat
Definitely one of the better AirBNB's we've stayed at. Location was in a quiet area only about 12 minutes to downtown Hilo. There were lots of little extras that made our stay stand out including the Japanese toilet, good quality towels, and the loofahs provided. Things were well labeled in the apartment and it was very nice to have access to laundry. Apartment was very clean too.

Zen Private Vacation house with SPA
Really enjoyed our stay at Ashley’s place! Very central location yet very peaceful and full of beautiful nature. Every activity we booked was 10-15 mins away from the home. It was only four of us so we had more than enough space in this home. Definitely a great home for a big group!

Dee's Off Grid Cottage on Small Farm, Ocean Views
Have stayed here several times in different units. It works well for us. If you find older reviews complaining about the water pump being loud its no longer an issue. It was updated recently.

Enchanted Volcano Forest House. Cool no need of AC
Easily one of the best Airbnb experiences we have ever had! The host, Steve, provided excellent directions to his place and even took time to give us advice on things to see while we were in town. The house and surrounding grounds are absolutely breathtaking. The place is exactly as described (if not better) and is spotless. If you’re looking for a place to unwind and relax, this is it. Thanks Steve for sharing your home with us! We look forward to staying here again when we return to the island!
