About this house rental

We have named our home Makani Kai which means "ocean breeze" where you can come to relax, watch the waves and let your stress melt away. In our opinion, the house is in one of the most beautiful locations on the island. Situated on the world famous Lyman's surf break, you can watch the surf and surfers ride the waves from almost every room and bedroom in the house. Guests have described our home as feeling that they've rented their own private resort on the island.
At over 5,000 square feet Makani Kai is one of the largest vacation rentals on the island. The house boasts 5 bedrooms, 6 baths, with multiple kitchens, 3 separate living rooms and a large game room with a pool table, foosball table and ping pong table. We also have a cornhole board and other board games. This makes the house perfect for extended family and/or multi-family rentals where guests still want to have their own quiet space within the house.
Three of the bedrooms have king sized beds. One bedroom has a queen sized bed and one has a double bed. There is also a double bed sized futon couch, queen sized fixed couch and several portable twin sized beds. 4 of the bedrooms have their own bathroom. Each bedroom has an air conditioner that can be separately adjusted to the desired temperature of the guest in that room.
There are three sets of washers and dryers in the house for your convenience. The swimming pool is situated on the ocean side of the house so you can enjoy the pool and watch the waves and sunset from the pool deck. The pool deck area is elevated so that the ocean view is enhanced.
The house is situated approximately 1/2 a mile north of Magic Sands Beach, which is considered to the the best sandy beach in town. One of the top snorkeling locations on the island, Kahaluu Bay is just 1 mile South of the house. The house is located on Alii Drive approximately 1.5 miles South of the main downtown Kailua-Kona area and roughly 1.5 miles North of Keauhou Bay. Alii Drive is the main ocean front road between downtown Kona and Keauhou Bay. The road is well traveled with significant noise. If you are from a quiet neighborhood you will notice it, while if you are from the city maybe less so. In our opinion, the stunning ocean views are a worthy tradeoff.
The back and the sides of the house are surrounded by forest reserve land so your only "close" neighbors are across the street to the left. In the rear of the house there is a large separate patio area that adds to the space of the house and creates a separate quiet area. The front of the house is separated from the ocean by Alii Drive.
The game room has a pool table, foosball table, wet bar and various board games for the family to enjoy.
There are gated parking areas on both the North and South end of the property that comfortably park 3 vehicles. There is also ample street parking.
In the garage there are boogie boards, surfboards, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and various beach toys for guest use.
From the main kitchen you can watch the waves while cooking or making fruity island drinks to enjoy by the pool. Surrounding the pool are multiple lounge chairs, tables and a bbq for guest use. With 8 televisions and internet in the house there is ample different electronic entertainment options for a large group, including kids.

Nice property, but a little dated. There are broken tiles around the pool. The floors were very dirty. And many cockroaches and assorted bugs.

We spent a week at this location. It included my grandparents, parents, siblings, and their spouses for a total of 9 adults. The house was clean and well kept. We used the house in its entirety and loved it. We were originally a little put off by and nervous after reading recent reviews so wanted to share our experience. Yes, we had the occasional spider and cockroach. This is to be expected in any tropical location. It did not disrupt our stay in any way. We just killed them and moved on. The amount was not excessive, scary, or to the level I was expecting after reading some of the other reviews. We did make a point of putting food away right after we were done to try to keep bugs to a minimum. We enjoyed coffee in the morning out by the pool. We could see and hear the ocean from the pool deck and the balconies. Every morning and every evening we could watch surfers which was fun. We enjoyed the pool every day and loved this amenity. The downstairs stayed very cool. The upstairs bedrooms were warm even with the air conditioning running but the rooms did stay cool enough to sleep. The location is amazing with beaches, restaurants, and shopping close by. The communication with the host was pleasant and quick. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would recommend this location to anyone.

This property was perfect for our family of 12. We stayed two weeks and wished it was longer. The house is equipped with everything you would need. The pool was an added plus especially for the children. All in all I can’t express enough how much we enjoyed the house accommodations.

This is a nice, big house on a main road in Kona. The kitchen and pool were amazing for our mixed generation group of 10 people! There are a lot of awesome things for use like beach chairs, a cooler, beach cart, etc. The kids loved all the board games, the pool table, table tennis table, and foosball. However, if you are squeamish about bugs or have arachnophobia, I would not stay here. We encountered numerous cockroaches and 8 cane spiders in the house/garage during our ten days. The house backs up to a jungle area, is older, and is not “airtight.” There are some openings in the walls where we could see bugs were able to get in. The doors, especially the garage door, did not close all the way. We blocked many of the doors with towels, but there were still a lot inside the house. Many people would not mind encountering cockroaches and spiders, but if you do, I’d look elsewhere. The house could use a lot of updates/maintenance to justify the nightly price. Ken was awesome with his communication. An excellent host! We had an awesome trip!

It is a beautiful house. Lots of room to spread out. The sunset views were incredible! Close to great beaches and restaurants. The house could use some minor maintenance. A new dishwasher- no one wants to wash dishes on vacation. And the sliding door to the patio/pool area needs to be repaired. We still had a wonderful time and would recommend this house.

When we,11 family members, arrived at the house, we were so happy with the view we thought this is going to be a 5 star place, then we went into the house. It is so misrepresented by the pictures on VRBO. It needs so much updating inside. We had unusable broken sliding door in the north downstairs unit, no blinds to keep out sun so was so hot in the afternoon. Have to keep 3 wood entry doors locked because no latches on them to keep them closed. Windows do not close properly, so hence the big roaches coming in at night. Very large spider found in bunk bed where child slept. Lightbulbs blinking. Outlets in parts of house unusable. Air conditioning didn’t work well in one bedroom. Dishwasher shelf broken. Refrigerator rusted. The house was well stocked with necessities. The pool was sparkling and really enjoyed. Lots of patio furniture around pool, but back patio was totally unusable. The traffic was loud on the street but not a bother to us. I would still recommend this house because of the view and location, but hope owners take heed and do some much needed work. The house just didn’t reflect the amount of money we had to pay for our 6 days.

What started out as a nice family vacation, soon turned in to a horrific nightmare. There is so much wrong with this house and misrepresented. Windows are dirty, some screens were missing from windows, doors would not seal, appliances were broken and not working properly, lights were burned out or malfunctioning in very important areas, such as the main entry coming up on the south side of the house Where there was no lighting in the evening and in the house going down to the garage. The air conditioning was substandard in many parts of the house The main entry lock does not work very well. The patio area in the rear of the house was totally unusable, there was mold on the covers, covering the porch, leaves and debris on the counters and sink, there was a paver next to the porch that had a huge hole under it, it gave way and I fell in. Few sinks were not draining. The floors are filthy as was the barbecue, no brush to clean it. The listing should mention the heavily traveled and loud road between pool area and ocean. Now let’s get to the bad stuff, at every turn inside and out we were met with cockroaches, we had four separate occasions where there was a cane spider in the house, these things are huge and freaked my wife and my mother, totally out and rare but if bitten they are poisonous. “The last straw” we had a big rat getting on our counters and into the food every night, I will not go in to the graphic detail how this ended. Needs $50k to make safe and rentable
