Located at a cool 1300' elevation w/ a "million dollar view", this 1-bedroom studio is a sanctuary after a day at the beach or exploring the island. You occupy a complete section of the house at garden level. Private entry & parking. The spacious bedroom has queen size bed w/ 2x comfy chairs. There is 1x twin bed on the covered lanai. The futon sofa folds down into a full size bed. It's great for 4x and palatial for 2x. Brand new gas range/washer/dryer.
The space
Our Tropical Treasure is situated at about 1,300 feet over looking the ocean. The climate is perfect all year around.
This "mother-in-law-unit" has it's own private part of the house, which means you will have complete privacy. Its spacious, newly decorated and very quiet.
The screened-in lanai has an ocean view with a spectacular sunset where you can enjoy your breakfast, lunch and dinners.
Most Hawaii visitors are full of plans to explore this beautiful island, and usually only come back to the house to sleep, but this is such a tranquil place, you may find yourself “staying home” and being satisfied because the space we created for you to completely relax and not feel you have to do anything.
You will not only enjoy the privacy, the quiet neighborhood, the view, but you can also rely on our local knowledge being in Kailua-Kona for almost 30 years.
Guest access
All areas are just for guests.
Other things to note
Please note that if an infant exceeds the number of people allowed to book, there will be a charge as if they were an additional person. We will reach out to you after the booking is confirmed.
Hawai’i island is mountainous and big. We recommend renting a car. (Bikes don’t work well here as we live at 1300 ft above sea level.)
If you like hiking, remember to bring heavy-duty hiking boots, with thick, rigid soles. You will be glad you did. Also, bring a rain jacket. You will need it at some point when you explore the Tropical Rainforest. If you plan to visit the summit of Mauna Kea, bring a pair of long pants and a warm jacket. On the summit, it is quite cold in Hawaii, (sometimes complete with snow) at 13,796 feet above sea level.
All paper products and linens are included.
Our day usually starts around 10 am, then we are pretty much available all day and late into the night unless we are working.
We do sincerely care about the quality of your stay, so please text us if you need to and we will respond ASAP. We are very grateful you booked with us and want to be good hosts.
We ask that you closely abide by our 11:00 AM checkout time because the unit is becoming very popular and we need that time in between to clean it for our next guests.

Kailua-Kona
On Hawaii’s west coast, manta ray snorkeling after dark, Kona coffee farms, and beachfront luaus set the scene for this seaside hub.

From the host
Our neighborhood is safe and quiet. We have one neighbor across the driveway, but everyone else is with good distance. All properties are 1 acre big, and you can reach our street with two turns from an important connecting road.
It takes 7-10 minutes to/from the airport, 15-20 minutes to "downtown" Kailua-Kona and 15 minutes to a spectacular beach.
There is a convenience store called Matsuyama a few blocks away for you to get comfort food fast. Safeway is 15 minutes away.

My work: Photographer
Aloha! I came to Hawaii in 1998 as a tourist, and never really left. I am originally from Germany, so we are a two language household. My husband James has lived on-island since 1991.
We love to share the beauty of this incredible Big Island, there is so much to explore and see that is spectacular and amazing. A visit to Hawaii Island also tends to have a healing affect on people as they experience the unique, natural beauty all around them.
We are ocean lovers, passionate Manta Ray Advocates*, and are happy to share our knowledge of the island with you as if you were friends or family. We can steer you towards tour operators who know what they are doing and also to those little know activities that are self-guided and free.
Airbnb is venture for us, but we have 12 years of experience of sharing our additional rooms in the main house (the upstairs of our Tropical Treasure). We've created a great space and are confident about our ability to host you. We tend to give our guests lots of space and privacy, but we are readily available if you need us or have questions.
* We would love to show you the mantas rays if you are an adventurous ocean lover. Inquire :)
