Beach house holiday rentals in Kealakekua

Such a special place to wake up in - right on the water with snorkelling & a surf break just there. My three kids loved their bunk room and being right on the water. Heidi was amazing and endlessly helpful. If you don't want a resort in this area and appreciate good old school Hawaii - this is the place for you.

We loved our stay right on the beach. It was perfect for our family of 4! We would stay again :)

Dawn has been a great host, we appreciate all she has done for us to optimize our stay!

We had an amazing time at Joe and Anna’s place! The location was ideal, tucked in a quiet area but still close to shops, restaurants, and everything we needed. The space was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up with everything you’d want in an Airbnb. The kitchen had all the utensils and essentials for easy cooking, and the pool was perfect for our kids, especially with the fun pool toys that were already there. Joe and Anna were incredibly kind and responsive, always quick to answer any questions. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests’ experience. It really felt like a home away from home, and we’d absolutely stay here again!

Location is flawless, right by the water. Property is right next to a wonderful bar and restaurant, as well as White Sands Beach.

The place was very beautiful and well located near all the beach fun. The views and ocean breezes were incredible and my family loved it. We left the windows open in the evening and in lulled us to sleep at night. We explored the rocky beach in the backyard and had fun looking for treasures. Our family will be back again soon!!

What a wonderful place to land after being out having adventures! Within walking distance of fabulous beaches, a local shopping center and terrific food. Our hosts were fantastic- quick to respond to questions and full of spot-on recommendations. Their home is a gem. Beautiful on the inside and the outside with a neat layout and a divine screened in lanai. Sijie and Zhe thought of all of the things that people might need/want when Airbnb-ing. I was seriously impressed. All of the beach & snorkel gear, beach towels, water shoes and chairs that they provided were invaluable. Great kitchen for making food at “home” and close to a large grocery store and lots of yummy restaurants nearby. It’s a quiet neighborhood nestled close to the water and surrounded by plumeria, hibiscus and all sorts of greenery. We had a delightful time during our 7 day stay in Kona at Zhe and Sijie’s lovely abode.

First of all, the area was amazing!! Manini beach was literally a 2-3 minute walk down the road for great snorkeling (gear is provided, if you need it) with a path for some amazing sunsets. There are a couple of fruit stands in the neighborhood, which was great for my mother’s daily banana stroll. You can see the bay from the amazing lanai that we spent so much time on to watch the snorkelers, kayakers and dolphins. The house itself was great! Split into half, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on either side, separated by an open concept living room and kitchen. The dining room is outside…where else would you want to sit down and eat? There were A/Cs in the bedrooms if you needed them, but the ocean breeze was usually enough for most of my party. There were lots of spices in the cabinets for cooking and some staples leftover from past renters. The long, winding and narrow roads make some great scenery, but also make your trip to anywhere else a bit long. I would definitely stay again.

Lee’s home is perfect in every way imaginable. Our family of four had a spectacular vacation. We are already planning our next stay.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lennis’s space, along with her thoughtfulness to the space and a being a great host. Her space is very airy, clean, and so many thoughtful details. Such as, beach accessories, many bathroom and kitchen necessities. I stay in a lot of home rentals, and I am really happy when there are items left behind for others to use, like spices, oils, condiments, and there were here. Lennis’s place was our shortest accommodation of our Hawai’i visit(unfortunately), so we didn’t have time to enjoy the pool( which is just a couple of steps away). There are so many flowers and plants on the grounds. We loved that the parking was right in front. It was nice that the condo is a single level apartment. Also, the front porch is lovely, I wouldn’t say it’s very private, but we are city people, so I didn’t mind. And it is not an active road. Stay here!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Jaima's. The house is beautiful - well-cared for and equipped, calm and relaxing, with multiple places to be together and enjoy the trees, birds, and ocean view. Very convenient to the local snorkeling as well as to food, beverage, market, and other amenities and excursions. And don't forget the lovely pool. Have been returning to the house in my mind since we've been home. Enjoy this special place.

Our stay in Kona was absolutely amazing! The Airbnb was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. Waking up to ocean views and enjoying coffee on the lanai was unforgettable. The location was perfect—close to beaches, shops, and great restaurants, but still peaceful and private. Our host was incredibly responsive and thoughtful, making sure we felt right at home. We’d return in a heartbeat. Mahalo for an unforgettable stay!

This was perfect for our family vacation with our adult children! We loved having morning coffee on the lanai overlooking the golf course while watching the sunrise over the mountain. The beautifully landscaped community is pristine and offers well maintained amenities. The pickleball/tennis courts and one of the swimming pools are just steps from the front door, but it was so quiet and peaceful. The townhouse was ideal, VERY comfortable and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was fully outfitted for our family to cook meals together. The lanai was also ideal for hanging out, reading and playing games in the evenings after days of activities. We also appreciated Jeff had nice quality beach chairs and snorkeling equipment available for our days at the beach. Perfect distance from downtown Kona, kayaking & snorkeling excursions and variety of activities. Jeff and Allison were great about providing suggestions. I would absolutely recommend!

This home has the most spectacular views, and is in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood! Everything looks as pictured and was the perfect Kona coast stay! This was our first time not staying close to the beach on any island and we loved how quiet and low key it was. Non of the hustle and bustle of a resort or beachfront condo. The pool was amazing to have on site! We loved our stay here! Our host was super quick to respond to any questions we had while staying! Thank you for the fabulous home away from home!

Our group absolutely loved our stay. The host was extremely responsive and the pictures don't even do the place justice. We loved the view and relaxing by the pool until it was time to hit the beach. The location is ideal; it is not too far from Kona (8 minute drive) but you feel like you're in a jungle oasis.

We loved our stay here! Barb was a great, responsive host and the location was ideal for getting to town. Kona is quaint and walkable. The home is an architectural delight! It is beautiful, peaceful, and comfortable. The koi pond was our favorite place (just be ready with eco-friendly mosquito repellent). Barb provided many resources for visitors and keeps a well-appointed home. We sincerely thank you for the opportunity to stay in your lovely home!

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Justin‘s place. It is very spacious and we were a family of five. My mom, my husband and my two daughters. The kitchen was fully stacked, and the mattresses were super comfortable. The snorkeling gear was a little old so we ended up buying our own gear. The area was great. Very close to a swimming beach and a beach for snorkeling. Justin was very responsive. Always replied right away and very helpful. We hope to come back someday soon!

Chelsea was out of town yet was immediately responsive to messages dealing with a couple of minor glitches; it helped that the owner lives nearby. Place overall was great. Lack of air conditioning (it was not hot, but the upstairs did warm up in the April afternoons) was offset by the private pool, a better way to cool off than by refrigerating the house. Nice layout for two couples, one upstairs with the larger bedroom and large en suite bath, the other downstairs with two smaller bedrooms and a bath, so we each had good private space. Only drawback was the downstairs rooms seemed a bit enclosed, although all had windows. Nice large lanai and the landscaping around the pool made it feel especially private. Be sure to investigate the pantry and shelves before shopping...the place was very well supplied when we arrived. We would definitely stay again if we're in Kona!

Awesome stay. This home is generously equipped and made for a perfect home base during our Big Island vacation. Easy to navigate with a cozy, welcoming feel. Enjoyed the pool and lovely gardens. Let’s not forget the ocean view.. perfect for sunsets. Host was helpful, friendly, and responsive.

This was a great home base in Kailua-Kona for a family of 5 active adults in their 20’s and 60’s. The apartment is spacious, modern, comfortable, and clutter-free with modern upscale furnishings and appliances, comfortable beds, large bathrooms and showers. It’s the whole upstairs of a two-story building at the back of a lot on a major road with plenty of private off-street parking in the courtyard in front. It’s uphill from several nice beaches, and the bedrooms have an ocean view. There’s a bar-height table on the front porch that’s great for drinking AM coffee with a view of the sea. The adjustable-height desk worked well. You definitely need a car here, but we were easily able to reach everywhere we wanted to go with a short drive: several beaches for swimming and snorkeling, a Kona coffee farm, restaurants, grocery stores, and airport. When we had difficulty on arrival, we had helpful responses from both Chrissy and another host within minutes! Checkout was simple.

We loved our stay here! And the convenience of having a washer and dryer and a kitchen is amazing the pool and hot tub are pretty nice amenities too!

Great place, highly recommend. Beautiful garden and lanai. Beds were comfortable and house well equipped.

This is the second time we stayed here and it was just as good as the first time. Amazing location with an uncomfortable bed in the master. You’re right on the rocks of the ocean, and right next to a beach park where a homeless man sleeps… I would stay here again in a heartbeat! We can’t wait to return to this home for another vacation in Kona (and next time we’ll bring paper towels, even through they promise to provide them). Aloha! 🏝️

This was our 1st time in Hawaii and i can say our expectations were blown! the location of this home is perfect! This house felt like a home. The kitchen had every appliance, the living room was stocked with dvds, and the bedrooms were a good size.This home was filled with Hawaiian spirit + we had access to lots of snorkeling gear which was lovely. Deanna responded quickly to any questions we had before and during our stay. We all felt well taken care of and very welcomed. We couldn’t have stayed in a better location. Kealakekua Bay is breathtaking! We watched the sunsets every night from the beach or lanai and every morning we could walk just less than a minute to the bay and see dolphins! The neighborhood was friendly and filled with wildlife! We had the opportunity of getting to know the Local Artist, Rainbow, She was lovely and filled with knowledge of the Island! We are all happy to call her our new friend and sad to have to say goodbye to her! We cannot wait to come back!
