House holiday rentals in South Kona

We had a great time at Mollies place. The house is very comfortable. We loved the pool and outdoor area. The location is great, close to restaurants and shops. There is a great hike close by to the Captain Cook monument, golf, beaches, it’s all near by. Mollie was very helpful and gave us great advice.

We had a wonderful 7 day stay. Our 3 boys (16, 13, and 10) spent hours on the diving board and in the pool. Sandra’s place had everything we needed for beach trips, including beach chairs, wagon, umbrella, cooler and beach towels. I was so happy to have a washing machine to wash out the sandy towels and suits after our beach trips. It was a 5-10 minute trip for Costco,-target and Walmart and a 30-40 minute trip to Hāpuna Beach (don’t miss the Malsada stand on the highway on your way). We would come back to the house to cook supper, swim more in the pool, and watch the sunset from the beautiful yard. We also got a lot of use out of the basketball net in the driveway, and volleyball net in the side yard. Sandra was extremely helpful with all aspects of our stay, including local recommendations. Would definitely stay again if on the Big Island!

The house, which is very spacious, is located in a quiet residential neighborhood (the only real noise is from the many birds), which is five minutes from a grocery store and some restaurants in Waikoloa Village, and there are many restaurants, beaches, and things to do within a 30-minute drive; downtown Kailua-Kona is 45 minutes, and Volcanoes National Park and Hilo are about two hours (but easy driving everywhere, except for typical urban traffic congestion in Kona). The landscaping is amazing, and the backyard with a swimming pool is extremely private. It is also west-facing, so you get gorgeous sunsets with a slight ocean view (the property is inland). The AC units (for which there is an extra charge) are only in the bedrooms, so the house gets stuffy during the day, but cools off quickly in the evening. We had one minor maintenance issue, but the host, Andy, was responsive and addressed it quickly. We would definitely return if we have a future trip to the Big Island.

Tarek was awesome. Super responsive and very kind. 10/10 recommend his place to stay at when visiting Big Island. House was packed with much needed living amenities (paper towels, board games, laundry facilities). Loved the living conditions I got the chance to stay in!

Beautiful home on the peaceful Hamakua Coast. Our family enjoyed a wonderful and quiet staycation - the pool was delightful and temp was just right with the cool ocean breeze. Kitchen was stocked with basic essentials making cooking easy. Very comfortable sleep spaces - cool breeze at night with windows open. Loved every minute! Suzy was very friendly and responsive. The grounds were so beautiful - lots of flowers and fruits surrounding us. I highly recommend this home as your next getaway. I will stay here again. Thank you Suzy and Peter!

Unbelievable setting. House was great and Nikki was super responsive as a host. The gorgeous setting of the rainforest felt like we were in the middle of a jungle. I was expecting more of a traditional Hawaiian vibe with the pool but it was easy to head out to a beach during the day to enjoy the sun and water and come back to an oasis in the evening. Beds were super comfortable and house was clean, comfortable and relaxing. Sauna was an incredible bonus! Would definitely stay again ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

We had a lovely stay at Mary’s place. The home is nestled in a lush, serene setting and was fully equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Mary and her property manager were responsive, helpful, and accommodating. We loved relaxing by the pool and taking evening walks to catch the sunset over the ocean at the nearby park. The kitchen was a joy to cook in, and we loved the open-air layout—it felt like a home away from home. Waking up to the sight and sounds of the ocean from the upstairs bedroom is something we’ll miss. Thank you, Mary, for graciously sharing your beautiful space with us! The memories our family made at this home are something we'll always hold dearly.

Tim's place was incredible. We were looking for a place to relax, re-connect and re-charge and Tim's place over delivered on all three. Inside the home was spacious and clean. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Outside we were able to enjoy walking the orchard, hanging out on the lanai, and watching the sunsets from the hot tub. Tim was very quick to respond to our requests for beach or dining recommendations. We will definitely be back on our next trip to The Big Island !!!

Sierra and her place were wonderful! It was peaceful haven with a gorgeous view of a waterfall (which we later walked down to enjoy - an easy and convenient walk!). The lanai and outdoor setting was my favorite along with the spacious bathrooms! No need for AC as the cross breezes are so comforting :)

This is perfect location if you want to visit Kona and Hilo. The farm is so beautiful and peaceful. The house has everything you need in case you forget something at home. The host is super friendly and a great baker.

Peter and Lori are friendly and welcoming and their property is truly lovely -- it is evident that a lot of care, effort and thought goes into to maintaining it. The cottage makes a perfect home base for exploring the area. It is also so pretty and comfortable that you just might want to pick up a pizza, watch some Jeopardy and dream about what it would be like if every Friday evening was that perfect :) Thank you so much Peter & Lori!

Perfect place to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing.

Beautiful oasis with a great beach to walk down to. We were pleasantly surprised to find that we loved that beach! It was so peaceful and the waves were often mellow. It is a bit of a drive into Kona, about 45 minutes. There is a lot to do near the house but to get to white sandy beaches you have to go about 1.25 hours away. The house was great. Clean and open. Neighbors are loud at times but mostly quiet. When they are loud though it is really loud. Overall lovely place and great value.

Words really don’t do a good job of describing just how beautiful this home and property are. So peaceful and serene. A true treasure. You will not be disappointed. Easy and straightforward check in. Great communication from Brenda. We look forward to returning.

Such a relaxing and comfortable space, listening to the wind in the forest and the afternoon clouds was very peaceful. We canceled our day plans one day just to relax and read in the yard, and enjoy the space, it's a really lovely home.

This is my second time staying at Andrew's place. This time for my birthday weekend with my fiance. Such a cute and peaceful place to stay for a couple nights. It had everything we needed and was a perfect base to go around to Pahoa and Hilo from. Andrew is a great host and made it easy for us to find with very detailed instructions and since we were getting in late at night, even left the porch lights on so we could get in more easily. Would definitely stay again!

This place was just perfect, close to town yet away from all the noise. Definitely plan on staying here again! George was very quick to respond and a great host overall. The views of the ocean were amazing. We loved waking up and drinking our coffee on the lanai and enjoying the view. Place was comfortable and spacious.

We love “unique stays” and this was so unbelievable peaceful and luxurious and so uniquely beautiful. It was the most perfect place to stay to make the most of Volcanoes National Park. Would absolutely recommend!!

We had a wonderful stay and the place is very cute. It's on the smaller side...but squeaky clean and had anything and everything one might need during their short stay. Wifi was great and very fast which was a big relief because we didn't have cell phone service in the area.

We experienced a wonderful holiday as a couple in Andrea's house. We can simply recommend everything without reservation. It was just perfect! Especially the co-host Sherry was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. We felt very welcome and very well kept. Many thanks Michaela and Andreas

Feels like a private getaway home in the countryside, plenty big enough for two families. Make sure to enjoy the starry sky from the balcony or patio if you're here on a clear night! The house is on "the top of the top" of the nearby area, so you can see for miles, all the way to the ocean.

Delphine and Guy were amazing hosts! Helpful and hospitable from beginning to end. We will definitely be staying again in the future. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a more personal, private experience on this island. Amazing views all around. Quiet, unique nature. All together an experience my family will never forget!

we spent a week in Matthew's place and would be happy to come back on a future trip. The house is large and full of good stuff - games, kitchen stuff, and more. The immediate surroundings are beautiful as is the view from the porch. Matthew is extremelya helpful and thoughtful. He really cared that we will enjoy our stay. Indeed a five star host. Ocean view is about 90 mins from Kona airport. I suggest not arriving at dark the first time - the area is dark and following the maps app we entered one driveway too early - backing up at darkness was scary. Make sure to follow Matthew's instructions and not just the app. The driveway to the house is not fully paved. However, after you see the way once at daylight it becomes easier. overall, we could use the place as a most comfortable place from which we could reach volcano national park several times and many beaches. it was good to be back to a cosy place at night. We would be happy to do this again!

We can’t say enough about this dreamy stay! Such a perfect fit for our honeymoon on the big island! Jane was so sweet and helpful! Spending our mornings relaxing on the lanai and taking in the scenery was one of our favorite parts of the trip! We wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else on a return trip to Kona!
