The process for booking, payment and communication with property owner were so simple and straightforward. The home was beautiful, comfortable, and close for all activities we had planned. Looking forward to staying at this property again in the future.

The home was perfect for our family. Plenty of room, nice and clean. It’s in a very quiet part of the island which we loved. Not far from volcano and south point adventures. We had a great experience.

The house is just over an hour away from downtown Kona, which is exactly what we wanted, to get away from the crowds. If the gorgeous view wasn’t enough, the area had everything else you needed. Local cafes, grocery shops, gas and friendly people. The house itself has everything you will need, some games, beach equipment, bbq grill, full size washer and dryer, and plenty of various patio furniture to relax on. The house was clean and the property is spacious. You’ll feel like you have the island to yourself yet you’re close enough to the main road. Just a short minute drive gets you on the main road to head to your destinations. We found going to Hilo rather than Kona much more pleasurable. The drive is a bit longer, but the roads are much less curvy making the drive easy and enjoyable and you pass through volcano national park so if that is on your list of to dos, you’re only about 45 minutes away. Plus Hilo has much more to offer as far as shopping and local businesses go. But, since the house is near the southern tip, you can choose either direction with nearly the same amount of travel time. We will definitely book the house again should we return to the Big Island anytime soon!

We enjoyed our stay at this property (Dec 6-Dec 12, 2023) The hosts were in communication just before we arrived and responded quickly to the few questions we had. The home was spotless and located in a quiet remote area away from the touristy areas we had experienced previously on another island. Felt very comfortable our entire stay, and were within decent driving range of National Parks and several different types of beaches each had its character, and we enjoyed it. The view of the ocean and the night sky from the property added to the overall experience. We are already talking about our next trip and will most likely try to book the same location if it is available.Thanks, Linda and Kevin..you have a great property and we treated it with great respect and appreciation.

My mom and I stayed here for a community event we had to do near where the home was located. We absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it. It’s HUGE and has a lot of space for a big family. The views from each room are phenomenal and the host was very receptive and answered extremely fast anytime I messaged. We had no issues at all here and will definitely be back. Mahalo for letting us stay in your beautiful home!!

I'm hesitant to give a good review since we'd like to come back next year. We'd kind of like to keep it a secret, but to be fair...
It's a wonderfully comfortable place and was the great location for us to come celebrate our mom/mother-in-law's 94th birthday. It's a bit of a drive from the airport (we got there after dark) and to get back into Kona but also a bit closer to Hilo - and maybe too close to the Punalu'ua Bakery (we bought twice as many malasadas as usual). We loved the loungers provided to use on the lanai and the recliners in the living room, plus a variety of beach chairs to take to the beach. Indoor and outdoor dining tables and chairs made sitting wherever we wanted easy, and the variety of sizes of coolers gave us the option to take just drinks or a picnic with us for the day. The beds were very comfortable and rooms were the perfect temperature with the doors open and/or the fans on.
The only negative, after getting swarmed when sitting out on the lanai, we did have to ask our family to bring some mosquito repellent so we could enjoy sitting outside. You'll need some if you go hiking anywhere so you may want to stop and buy some. We used a mosquito coil on the lanai, it did the job well.

This is our 6th visit to see family that live in Oceanview. So far, it’s the nicest place we’ve found there. Everything we needed was provided including our favorite lounge chairs to sit in on the lanai and recliners in the house.
Everything that is except something to keep away or protect us from the mosquitoes. Stop somewhere (I suggest Walmart in Kona as it’s also a great place for souvenirs) before you arrive and buy one or the other, or both (if you do any hiking, mosquito repellent is often recommended) and you’ll enjoy your time relaxing on the lanai more. Family nearby brought us a mosquito coil, it did the job.

Out in the middle of no where, I mean secluded. 3 br/ 2 ba away from the maddening crowd, but close enough good beaches. Local restaurants and market handy.
Thanks for the birthday flowers!

I am always in charge of finding our houses for vacations and I love looking for ones that are a little unique or special to the area. I loved the remoteness of this one and the views of lava and the ocean. When I booked it, my husband wasn’t so sure but after our stay he was on my side! The house was comfortable, had all the amenities we needed, and was in an interesting location - easy access to South Point, black sand beach, Two Step for snorkeling (highly recommend), etc. We really enjoyed our time in this part of the island and in this house. Thank you!

Great property! We loved staying here. A couple of things to be aware of, there is no AC (we didn’t need it, so not a big deal), you will need to bring bottled water in for drinking (again not a big deal). Ocean View does not have a lot of places to eat if you are not planning to cook. When you look online it seems like there are quite a few, but in reality it’s pretty limited. We wanted to try the Thai place close to the property. We even drove back from Hilo early to make sure we made it back in time to order. They only take a limited number of orders each evening. We went by at 4:45 and they were not taking anymore orders that night. Just a few things to consider. The location is beautiful and it’s quiet. We enjoyed our weekend get away.

The property had everything we needed and was very comfortable for 4 adults. The location was great for visiting both well-known and more secluded beaches. We especially enjoyed the proximity to the Punalu’u Bake Shop for malasadas each morning as well. The host was very helpful in answering questions before and during our stay. We hope to return sometime.
