Thanks so much for the wonderful house. It was a perfect house for our family with 5 adults and 1 child. The house was larger than it looks in the photos and was in a perfect location on the island. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed and the outside showers were amazing! Mahalo for a wonderful family vacation!

Lovely, well-situated home on the Kohala coast side of the island. Good proximity for activities both north and south on the leeward side, and to gain access for cross-island travel to Hilo and Volcano. Comfortable beds, well-appointed kitchen amenities, responsive hosts, and a detailed, informative starters' and home-base guide. Room-specific air conditioning allowed for individual preferences. Quiet and private, and with a general store conveniently next door (without noise or sounds). We felt very comfortable and highly recommend it!

This is probably the best experience I've had with a rental home. Super clean, great layout, with lots of thoughtful touches to make us feel welcome. Across the street is a shallow tidal area that was an absolute National Geographic experience: fish! crabs! turtle! octopus! Next door is a small "general store" that had necessities and weekly snorkel rentals. It was a lovely place for a lovely vacation.

I can't say enough good about our stay with Island Beach Rentals, 9B in Puako. The house was just gorgeous, everything that we needed was there. Our hosts came to make sure we got checked in ok and helped us to know how to be good neighbors. The location, next to a small store, and across from Beach Access was just perfect. The neighborhood is very quiet. The outdoor showers were appreciated and helped to keep the floors sand free. We would stay there again in a heart beat and recommend it highly!

We were very happy with the property. While it was about a 30 minute drive to Kona, we had easy access to several beaches. The trade off was with it. The property managers were amazing and very responsive. We will definitely recommend this property to others

Loved this home in a quiet neighbor and easy access to the water for a beautiful sunset view. The house was spacious with a great porch on the back. The back porch had a grill with propane, tables, beach toys, chairs, etc. The house was clean and each room had its own AC unit. We had lots of room for our group. Had lots of supplies in the house for us to use which was pleasant surprise. Would definetly stay here again with a larger group. House was very clean and comfortable, only a few steps to get into the house.

Our stay at this house was wonderful! Plenty of space, a big kitchen, a relaxing/secluded garden at the back, an nice outdoor shower, the hawaian feel! The fact that it was one minute from a small general store was useful. The beach and its ponds were beautiful and just 5 minutes walking distance: we did some snorkeling and it was great. The house was very clean. I would recommend this house without hesitation.
