Location was convenient to Kailua without the congestion and noise of the town. Very central to beaches, shops, and dinning. The house is very nicely equiped for any cooking situation. Water toys are available for use. The outdoor shower was handy for rinsing dive gear and just getting the sand off.

Lovely home. 100% safe. So close to town without being in town. The property manager was very nice and responsive. The view of the ocean was breathtaking.

We had a wonderful 10-day stay; this property is so well-appointed, you'll want for nothing! From beach gear down to laundry detergent, beds were made, it was spotless - they even provided beach bags, hats and robes to use during our stay! We lived in Kona for a few years and coming to this house was like coming home. Even the neighbors were lovely.

Our stay was amazing. The central air did quit working during our stay, we notified the property manager and they responsed immdeiately and had it fixed right away. We loved the quiet gated community and the house was fully stocked, it was a perfect place for a 3 generation family trip.
10.0
We loved the location of this property. It was so convenient to shopping and downtown, but was in a quiet neighborhood with lots of street parking. The amenities were more than we could ask for. The owners had thought of everything and were generous in sharing. The kitchen had so many nice appliances, dishes, spices, cooking utensils, vases, etc. and I think we used them all! There were sun hats, which came in very handy, beach toys and chairs, towels, etc. We had a wonderful time and much of it was thanks to this property! I would definitely recommend as a premium place to stay.
10.0
The house is well laid out and very comfortable. The appliances are all high quality. The weather control was very good, quiet and effective. The outdoor eating space had a nice view, including the ocean.
The location was convenient for visiting the west side beaches and restaurants in the town. Altogether I recommend this house highly.

This home was great for our needs. Well equipped and conveniently located. Management was attentive as well. Kona is such a fantastic island with so much to offer. We wish we could have stayed longer but hopefully we will be back soon. We will look to stay here again on our next visit.

Property managers were really nice to work with. The area is neighborhoody-only houses. but its nice. view is really nice, clean and safe. there is some area to walk around, but you have to leave the gated community to get a real walk in. close enough to stores that you can get whatever you need. the washer and dryer are good and fairly large capacity

This was the most organized and well maintained property we have stayed at! The property manager was super responsive. For example, we told her we were missing beach umbrellas, she promptly came and brought us new ones. The AC was perfect and was much needed as well! The dvds were great for the kids and adults alike.

Great
My family (3 kids 6, 10, 13) all had a great time. Nice place, good location. I was an idiot and misread the gate code instructions, and the property manager kindly facetimed me to show me how to open it. (My mistake, not theirs).

Happiness in Kona
Very pleased with the property, clean and updated. The view and peaceful location was enjoyed by all of our family. The amenities offered at the house made our stay easy and enjoyable. Some of the most beautiful beaches in the world just a short distance from this residence. 5 star property!

Perfection in Paradise
We brought our entire family along. The house was simply PERFECT. Enough space to have privacy but cozy enough for family bonding. The teens loved the hot tub after a great day of surfing. And the whole gang played board games on the lanai until the wee hours. We loved being able to grill or cook a family dinner in the well equipped kitchen.
The hosts thought of EVERYTHING!!!
They even had coolers, sun hats, beach towels and bath robes.
The location is awesome too. Close to shopping, walkable to town and the beach bur removed from the hassle bustle and peaceful for early morning coffee or watching the sunset.
We were only a 10 minute drive to my sisters house and close to all the attractions we wanted.
We usually like to find new places when we travel but,... We will definitely rebook our little slice of heaven in Kona.

Home Away from Home
This was a great place! We enjoyed the cool mornings sitting watching the sunrise and the ocean. The evenings were just as relaxing watching the ocean and the sunset. Listening to the birds and watching the palm trees sway. The spa was great for a relaxing time at night. It was well stocked with all necessary utensils, etc. It was close to everything in Kona and not a far drive to the beach. We loved it!

Wonderful
We loved the house. First, the location was great. Right in Kona, but the neighborhood was quiet and serene. Second, the view was amazing. We looked forward to sunrise and sunset. Third, the house had everything we could possibly need. The host supplied a lot of things for us to use. Very thoughtful. The house was open and airy, and met all of our needs.

Awesome house and location
House has everything one needs to enjoy the Kona Coast, many amenities and extras. The kitchen is well equipped. The ocean view is very nice. Could see the sun's green flash from the property. House location in Kailua-Kona is excellent. The property manager a joy to work with.

I loved this house! The perfect Big Island vacation home and I've stayed in so many different places. The listing description was completely accurate and so much more! It has everything you could possibly want or need. The property couldn't be any more clean and beautiful. I will recommend this house to everyone. The location is great for beaches, restaurants, and shopping.

Great Kailua-Kona House Vacation Rental
While visiting Kona, I wanted to be away from hotels, cook my own food and relax in a quiet environment. This rental was that and much more. The house is clean and spacious with a well-equipped kitchen, a beautiful lanai for eating breakfast, a fun outdoor shower and large hot tub, all with a beautiful view of the ocean. The lot next to the house is a sacred site (no building allowed) which gives the property a bucolic feeling. This gated-community property is located close to stores and downtown and is centrally located to visit local beaches and restaurants. And there is snorkel gear, boogie boards, mats, towels, umbrella and coolers for use. I enjoyed being able to head South to Two Step beach for snorkeling or North to Hapuna Beach for swimming, or to Waimea for lunch. And, of course, strolling along Ali'i Drive at sunset made it perfect. This is a great place for a fun vacation.

Paradise found!
This is our 3rd visit to Hale Alaula house. We stayed for 2 weeks. The listing description is 100% accurate in terms of space, layout and amenities provided. The location of this house is the best on the big island. Less than 5 minutes down the hill you will find Starbucks, Walmart and a Safeway supermarket. It is an 8-10 minute drive to Ali'i Drive in Kona where you will find shops, beaches and fabulous restaurants. The house is beautifully decorated, clean, cozy and makes you feel like you're home. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with appliances, pots and pans, coffee maker, dishwasher, plus a washer & dryer. Enjoy a great BBQ on the lanai which has an unobstructed view of the Pacific ocean. Sunsets are stunning! Relax in the backyard after a day of swimming or sightseeing in the hot tub and the outdoor shower you will absolutely love! The owners have gone out of their way to provide boogie boards and snorkel equipment for your use and enjoyment. Flat screen TV's throughout the house, strong WiFi signal and a large library of DVD's. In all of our travels over the years, we have never experienced a more relaxing comfortable home and we plan on returning every year! It"s as if you were in your own home in paradise.

Comfortable and convenient - just what we were hoping for!
The outside shower and lanai reminded us constantly that we were on vacation. The kitchen included everything we needed. Very comfortable for friends traveling together. Recommend this house!

Perfect location and a well stocked house!
The house was perfect for our family of four. We loved having breakfast and sunset bbqs on the beautiful lanai. We explored so much of the island and coming back to our home away from home! The only reason we didn’t give a 5 was that the hot tub was a big part of why we chose this house. It was very dirty and smelly when we arrived. Finally, after 2 requests the water was changed and treated but we only had 2 nights left to use it (here 2 weeks). The garbage and recycling was left in the bins from the previous tenant and we couldn’t put ours in - but the manager did send some one over and it was cleaned up the next day!
So, overall very good - for many reasons. I would recommend this place - it is lovely- maybe don’t count on having a hot tub and just enjoy the amazing Island and all its diversity!

Impressive! Ideal location with great views!
We had a wonderful stay at David & Toni's home. Everything is clean, comfy and convenient. The neighborhood is quaint and situated near everything. We enjoyed walking down to the pier for an easy swim/snorkel. The highlight for us has to be the outside shower. Such a treat to then take a dip in the hot tub. We will definitely stay here again!

Unbelievable stay!
Amazing views of the ocean with an outdoor shower and hot tub. Nicely decorated and located near the best shopping and dining in Kona. The snorkeling equipment and bodyboard for guest use was a nice touch. Definitely coming back.

Incredible value for a family!
Great value for a family! Close to everything, but on a quiet street with an ocean view. Went to the volcanoes, the cherry festival in Waimea, hapuna beach (best sandy beach around, we were told, with a hotel bar and grill right there open to the public walking up from the beach), a Super Bowl party at a bar, a walk in the Kailua Kona community garden, some native Hawaiian cultural sites, a local surfing beach (rocky but shaded, with a great view of the surfers), some great restaurants, and a coffee processing tour. But felt relaxed every day because we had a hot tub, an outdoor shower, lounge chairs and a grill overlooking the ocean, TVs and WiFi for everyone to do their own thing whenever someone needed downtime. Great kitchen too, which saved money for the excursions. Browse all you want, we doubt this place can be beat.

Heavenly
This was the best vacation we have ever had. The home was lovely. The kitchen had every gadget you could possibly need besides the great gas grill on the lanai. The bedrooms were lovely with very comfortable beds. The hot tub was perfect after a long day of sight seeing. The best way to relax and watch the sunset. Outdoor shower after the hot tub and you are done for the day. This is a great home perfect for 6-8 people. There is all the beach equipment from chairs and mats to snorkel stuff and boogie boards. This home has everything you could possibly need for a wonderful vacation on the Big Island as the location is great too. Less than 10 minutes to the beach, restaurants and shopping. This location is perfect, owners are extremely attentive to your comfort with suggestions for your vacation. We are already booked for next year!!

Great home on the Big Island for four adults and two kids!
We all went for my 40th Birthday and it was such a special, relaxing time! Plenty of room for four adults and two kids without feeling crowded! Great outside space with views of the weekly cruise ships and the setting sun! Loved eating dinners outside and being able to use the BBQ. This home was just perfect! Looked exactly as it did in the photos. Had a few walks down to the ocean & the pier - only about 0.8 mile downhill! And so close to just about everything. So peaceful and quiet. Can't wait to come back again! Thanks for a terrific stay.
