Very nice, comfortable house. The quiet was lovely and all the cactuses are AMAZING. Loved the little gecko living in the conch. Made me smile every day.

This is a beautiful home just steps away from a very secluded beach. Perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Would definitely stay here again!

This is a very comfortable, spacious, airy house in a quiet neighborhood a short walk from Pebble Beach. House is well-provisioned and rental agents very responsive. Enjoy the sound of surf and bird calls. This was my second stay at this house, and I hope to come here again.

Great spot 1 block from black pebble beach. Fans and airflow and screens kept cool. Location between volcano and Kailua can allow easy access to either. Loved it.

This property was as advertised, actually better than advertised. I was unsure if there was a view of the ocean from the lanai, and I can confirm indeed there is a lovely view. You will hear the pounding surf at night. As stated, there is no AC, but I found the home to be comfortable at all times without it. The kitchen is well appointed. I loved the location, which is quiet and somewhat isolated from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist areas further north. Indeed, you are a good 25-30 minutes away from any kind of restaurant or civilization. The beach was quite turbulent most of the time I was here, so don't come expecting clear still waters. That said, Pebbes Beach is a sight to behold, unlike any other beach I have seen bounded by primordial lava rock. Make sure you find the path to the right that leads to more beach front. I enjoyed walking down from the house to the beach to watch the sun set every night. As others have noted, the road to/from the property will probably be the steepest road most people will encounter in their lives (San Franciscans exempt), but it's still perfectly safe and smooth in even a basic rental car. Just go slow. I look forward to returning to this property again in the future.

the house was exactly as advertised on vrbo. it was an excellent experience. the view and access to pebble Beach were perfect

At the entrance to Black Stone beach.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beach is your back yard at this house in a quiet private neighborhood. If you are looking for solitude this is the place. The home is beautiful. The kitchen is great and the tall open ceilings made for a breezy home. The only real downside is the road down is scary steep and you have to drive 20 minutes to get to food and essentials. But it was worth a few days of solitude south Kona.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was very clean and adequately supplied with the necessary things for a comfortable stay. The trade winds easily blow through the home because of the generous windows and as long as the windows are open it stays cool. This is the third time we have rented this home and we will be back again
