Spacious and very convenient location. House needs a thorough cleaning.

Josephine is so awesome. Very flexible and accommodating to our requests. The house has a fantastic view and is conveniently located. The kitchen has all the seasoning I need. We had a blast.

My family and I booked this home as we needed a place to stay while in town to attend my Grandpa’s funeral. We had adequate space, privacy, even enjoyed a mango or two from the tree out front. Great sized home that can accommodate 10+ for a casual hang.

Overall my family was comfortable but we found lack of maintenance such as broken screen door and bathroom shower missing half of sliding door should have been repaired. House was tidy on arrival, but could benefit from a professional deep cleaning. Hostess was available to answer any questions we had.

Lovely house! We enjoyed our stay in Kona for our family’s spring vacation. The house is well equipped, comfortable beds, located close to Kona downtown and its beaches. It was amazing to wake up to the stunning views from the house! It is a great place to relax and the owner was kind, responsive, and gave us great recommendations for the area. Highly recommended, mahalu!

The location of this property is ideal! Having stayed in Keahou and Kealakekua Bay areas on previous trips, it was wonderful to be feel 'in the center' of things. An easy drive north for the beaches, south for snorkeling, and close to town for eating out or picking things up. The gated community the house is in was quiet, safe, and the neighbours we met were friendly. The home itself was as advertised/reviewed and had a well stocked kitchen, plenty of bath and beach towels. The two singles, queen, king bed arrangement was ideal for our family. The view from the lanai overlooking the town of Kailua-Kona was wonderful. Checking in was straight forward and the opportunity for a later check-out greatly appreciated. Thanks Josephine for the checking in on us along the way and the use of your home! Aloha!

Fully stocked home including condiments and beach gear. Lovely home with great views. Safe and secure neighborhood. Great for family. Thanks Josephine❤️

Great location - 5 minutes or less to town and in a gated community, so quiet and secure. The kitchen was well stocked and the beds very comfortable. The key to a top-notch VRBO stay is the host. We discovered an issue with the BBQ and Josephine had it replaced with a new one - on a Sunday! We paid $4.00 for a lime and I'm sure Josephine would have helped with that if she could.

This house was open and roomy and had a amazing views! Would absolutely stay again!

Lovely place overall. Was great for 6 of us. Bedrooms, kitchen, and living areas are plenty spacious, and the lanai is fantastic. Was especially nice for one of our members who has a disability since there's maybe only one tiny step to go up, but otherwise everything is flat and plenty accessible. Because of the location though, you get lovely sunset views looking down to the water. All of the amenities were exactly as described and there's everything that you'll need to enjoy your time on the island (beach towels, etc.). Parking is also easy and safe as it's a private residence in a quiet gated neighborhood. Just a few things to note in case you're considering this property for your stay: the house is a way up a steep hill, so unless you're really fit it's not really walkable to anything in the area (just a 5 minute drive though to practically everything in town); this is a charming well-loved home and with that comes a few little quirks (i.e. sliding door off the one bedroom that easily falls off the track--easy enough to put back on though). Overall, a great place (with a very responsive host!) that you should definitely consider for your stay.

The home is located in a lovely gated community. Very quiet. The lanai and backyard had a gorgeous view of the ocean. The master bedroom is huge with a really nice bathroom The second bedroom is nice with a very large closet The third bedroom was small and while it would be great for small children it was a bit cramped for two adults ( we did kinda knew that by the the descr

We loved our stay in this home. We were a group of four friends, and this 3 bedroom home accommodated all of us easily. The beds were very comfortable and the bedrooms are situated so that everyone had their privacy and quiet when they were not in the main rooms. The open living/dining room gave us plenty of space on the days we needed to get some work done. Hands down our favorite space was the lanai, so perfect for early morning coffee, lounging, evening cocktails. The view out to the ocean is so beautiful and we enjoyed using the binoculars to spot whales and watch the sunset in the evenings. The neighborhood is a very quiet, residential neighborhood, we didn't run into that many people but everyone we did meet was very nice and welcoming. The AC stopped working a couple of days in to our trip and the owners were very quick to respond and had someone out the next day to fix it. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay on Hawaii!

We will be back to this property again

Pros: This place was a in a perfect location. It’s a very nice gated neighborhood that is quiet but still close to downtown Kona. The house is big and the lanai (as mentioned by others) is beautiful and perfect for starting and ending the day. The place has the basic utensils and kitchen stuff needed. The host is super nice and easy to communicate with. Cons: The house needs a lot of updates and is very basic. The screens and blinds are outdated and don’t work. The screen door is dented so it doesn’t close all the way. The blinds that another reviewer mentioned were going to be updated, still haven’t been and blinds fell off, wouldn’t close, etc. The shower door in the bathroom with a tub only has one door and it doesn’t work. The furniture is not comfortable (it’s all wicker). They don’t provide toiletries so bring your own. The WiFi had issues and it’s suuuper slow so it’s hard to do any work if you’re working remotely. All in all, if you’re looking for a basic place that is large, close and quiet, this place is great! We didn’t spend much time here since we were out and about all day long so it worked just fine for us. Would have loved it if it was a little nicer but it worked.

Spacious, comfortable house. Great view, quiet neighborhood and conveniently close to the airport, the village and an enormous grocery store. For our multi-generational group, the layout of the house was perfect since bedrooms are separated from each other and common areas. Overall a great place to relax.

Home away from home It was in perfect location, the view and its accessibility to everything.Clean and spacious,true to what is advertised. Quiet and safe neigjborhood.Definitely a winner.Thank you Josephine we had a great time,it was a beautiful house.Highly recommended. We will definitely be back!Mahalo

Everything was exactly as the owners mentioned on Vrbo. We had a wonderful time and the house is Gorgeous. Next time we will rent for a month! Lots of Aloha

Had a great stay at this location. Just like in the pictures. The place has a lot of the beach stuff like chairs, boogie boards, snorkel gear so that was an amazing bonus. Property is a bit older but we came to the big island to be outside, we didn't cook here but the place has everything needed. Owners had very fast efficient communication and would recommend.

We really enjoyed our hours spent on the lanai with the oceanview. And it was so easy to get to our favorite beaches -- ABay, Hapuna, Spencer and upnorth to Hawi and Pololu Lookout.

Owner communicated great! Very nice gated community. House was just like the pictures. Great view of the ocean without being right at the ocean. I would stay there again.

We had a fabulous trip staying In Mululani Green Haven. It was so close to everything in Kona and the location allowed us to miss so much of the traffic that we had to navigate through the other time we came to the big island. The convenience to grocery, water refills at WalMart, and easy access to Ali'i drive made this a fantastic choice. The neighborhood was quiet and tidy. I can't say enough good things about it. Also having the space of 3 bedrooms was wonderful! The main suggestion I have is to replace screens and some of the windows. We tried not to use the A/C more than necessary, but because some of the windows were hard to open and the screens had holes, we weren't able to cool the house off enough at night, so we ended up closing it up before we went to bed and relying on the A/C. Also some of the blind slats would fall down when we opened or closed them, and we had to pop them back into place. Also one of the burners on the stove was broken. Overall, these were minor details and we greatly enjoyed our stay. Josephine was great! She checked on us and was responsive to questions. I loved working with her. We would stay again! Awesome views also, and the lanai was fairly private. Excellent overall.

House and location were wonderful. Furnishings were great and the view also. Communications with owner/manager were excellent from booking to checkout. Mahalo for letting me use your home for some of our wedding guests 😊

Our group of six ( two grandparents, mom and dad, two children age 3 and 4) greatly enjoyed this lovely home. The lanai was fantastic with great views of the ocean and sunset. We spent all of most of our time out there, making use of the bbq and the outdoor living area. The yard was very safe for the children with a good high fence and room to run and play. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked with spices, condiments, coffee, etc. The beach chairs and outdoor gear was appreciated. The cupboards need to be repaired, but the owners have plans to make these repairs. I would recommend this house to families or groups.

The porch makes the place worth it. Neighbors were nice but moving. Not a place for loud folks. Had everything and more.

The location is a short drive to the historical / beach areas. It is quiet and well kept by the host. Josephine was responsive to my questions and knowledgeable about the area.

We, five people spanning three generations of a family, spent a week in this beautiful home in Kailua-Kona. Our original goal was to use it as a base for exploring the west side of Hawai’i: night snorkelling with mantas, day snorkelling off the beaches, exploring the petroglyphs up North, learning about Hawai’ian culture, and, of course, eating local food. Our hopes were more than met - Josephine’s home was in an ideal location for us, in a quiet, private community, yet with quick access to shopping (Walmart is a 5 minute drive, downtown about 10) for food and other supplies. For longer trips, we could be on the highway in a few minutes, for destinations either south or north, launching us on our out-of-town adventures. The home’s three bedrooms gave us privacy when needed, and the lanai let us hang out together, enjoying the ocean view and the visitations of various birds and the occasional gecko. On the few days that we stayed home, the air-conditioning kept us cool and let us catch up on our sleep. The house was clean, quiet, and spacious. It was equipped with everything we needed, other than our food, including barbeque, swim fins and beach chairs. It even has a mango tree, which on occasion dropped fruit onto the driveway, and which we, of course, ate for dessert. I have no reservations in highly recommending this rental home.

The house is very conveniently located near Kailua-Kona. As mentioned in the description, the view from the back lanai is amazing - a great spot for viewing the sunset! The house worked very well for me, my husband, and our 1.5 yo daughter. The open kitchen/dining room/living room area was great for our daughter to play in and the bedrooms were nice. The A/C also worked well and we used it to cool down the house at night. Josephine was an awesome host: responsive, nice, and flexible. We requested an early check-in (in the end, we didn't actually make there early) and a late check-out (to let our daughter take a nap at the house before heading out to the airport), and Josephine was kind enough to grant us both. As mentioned by some of the other reviewers, the house does need some basic maintenance (e.g., the screen doors were tricky to use, the sliding shower door over the tub didn't work, and some of the surfacing on the kitchen cabinets was falling off. That being said, we weren't too bothered by these little issues. I would happily stay at this place again!

Location is excellent for Kailua-Kona---it's close to many activities. The house is clean, roomy, and well stocked. The three bedrooms worked well for my husband and me, and our daughter and her family. Our little granddaughter loved the lanai. Josephine was quick to reply when we had questions or concerns. The house is tricky to find the first time; keep driving up and up with some zig zags.

The location of this rental was perfect, shopping and restaurants nearby, beach close and within driving distance to major site seeing. The beds were comfortable and the home was adequately stocked with the things we needed. It was nice to have access to beach chairs, snorkels, and even a stroller!

Great location, quiet neighbourhood, accommodations perfect for 5 adults. House was a little tired looking, in need of a good deep cleaning and needs fresh paint, blinds and fans need to be cleaned. Had a chance to point this out to owners as they live on mainland and maybe not aware of "tiredness" of property. Found owners very cooperative and easy to work with so I am sure they will address the cleaning issues. We really loved our stay there and would book there again in future and for sure recommend.

A Huge Mahalo Nui Loa to Josephine for sharing your island retreat with our family. Josephine and the Property were spot on. Perfect Location above Konatown with Spectacular Ocean views and sunsets.

the house is centrally located in a nice gated community. Was well stocked and clean. Lanai offered great view of Kona and cool ocean breezes. Landlord kind enough to let us in house before formal rental period started so we could put groceries in refrigerator. Would surely rent from Josephine again. House served 5 adults well.Two of three bedrooms have an ocean view.
