Tranquil oasis

If you like a lovely environment, tranquility, location away from crowds, space to relax in or outdoors without a lot of noise, abundant fruit and flowers, an active bird feeder in view outside the dinning window, available beach equipment, a good home base location, then this sweet spot is for you.

From the moment we arrived we were already looking forward to our next stay.

The beautiful neighborhood setting makes this feel like a home away from home. The views were spectacular and spending 9 days having access to local fruit was amazing.

Because of the close proximity of neighbors and I’m an early riser the sound of the screen door closing is loud. I was always worried I was making too much noise by opening and closing the screen.

It was a very comfortable stay!

The location was fabulous and the grounds were amazing. Cherry tomatoes and fresh fruit right out your door. Sandra is an artist and had some great pieces around the property and in the rental.

The bed was squeaky.

Exceptional

We loved being in the mountains where the condo was located. It was a close drive to everything and Sandra was very very helpful. The view from where we were located was just excellent, we got to see the sunset every night.

The only thing we could think of was a possible outside porch.

We enjoyed a week here, with this a comfortable home to come back to after a long day sightseeing.

This property is an entire suite within the owners' home on beautiful grounds. We had all the comforts of home - nice king bed, well stocked kitchen, large TV with Netflix & Prime.

Good choice for basic needs

It is located in a calm area, in beautiful lush environment. The apartment is spacious, clean and equipped with most things you’ll need during your stay. Even beach gear is provided and we received a bag of Hawaiian coffee as a welcome gift which was a nice gesture.

What we missed was a drying rack to hang on our wet clothes and towels after a beach-day. Lack of washer/dryer can also be a negative point if you would stay longer. The other thing which made us quite disappointed was that there was another apartment in the house, on the ground floor, that was equipped with a nice swimming pool. That pool is only accessible for the people renting that specific apartment, so our children were pretty sad to see the other guys playing in the water. I think you should mention this in the description of the property so people know in advance that there is a pool but they are not allowed to use it.

The space worked very well with privacy and great communication with hosts in great locale.

Nice change from the hotel scene in Hawaii; apartment with seating area, dining area and sense of privacy from the rest of the house. Even had access to some basil leaves for cooking dinner; quick responses to any questions. Away from downtown area but very quick 5-10 minute access to beaches and parks. Responsive hosts.

Generally, this wasn't a major problem, but only having A/C in the bedroom made the space rather warm mid-day.

Hidden gem above the tourist hustle of Kona!

Great hosts! You really feel like you're at home at this property with the spacious living room, comfortable bed, and quiet neighborhood. Great location up on the hill. Cooler during the day than down on the beach, but still a short drive to all the action.

Couldn't have picked a better place to stay.

The location was excellent, close to downtown Kona and the airport. The unit has nicely maintained, beautiful grounds. Everything was very clean and decorated with Sandra's beautiful Hawaii paintings. Close to main roads leading to most parts of the big island. The neighborhood was quiet and very nice. Sandra was a fantastic host! She went way out of her way to help us when we ran into Hawaii's COVID regulation hassles. Looking forward to our next stay at The Great Kona Escape.

Beautiful property, stunning view of the sunsets, friendly owners, very clean.

The owner was so friendly! She just seemed to know that I was worried about my kids possibly being too loud. Without me saying anything she sent me a text and told me not to worry about noise and that she loves kids.

That we couldn't stay longer.
