We had a wonderful time here. The house served as a great base camp for day trips to the Kaiula-Kona area, Punalu'u Black Sand Beach,Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and other local sites.The sweeping Pacific view from the Lanai is stunning, with gorgeous sunsets.The house had everything we needed and was very clean and cozy. Michele was a great host and even gave us a loaf of delicious ube sweetbread. The garden and the nighttime chirping of coqui frogs were very relaxing.If you are planning a trip to the west side of the Big Island and want a peaceful place to unwind after your adventures, this is the place to go. (And make sure to stop at the Panalu'u bake shop for a malassada or two ...or three).

Fabulous 50th with Stunning Views

We came to celebrate my 50th birthday in style & stayed for 10 nights. Overall the house is very nice, with beautiful surrounding gardens and views that go on forever. Sitting on the porch with either coffee or cocktail were exceptional. Michele & Ron were quick to communicate as well. Some minor things we felt could have been better but in no way diminished the trip (Just suggestions). 1. Visitors should understand the beach is quite a ways down the VERY steep hill side. 2. Consideration of length of stay should be given to having enough trash bags for guests. The 2 or 3 trash bags we had were not enough for 4 adults staying for 10 nights. This also applied to toilet paper. Told to buy more after the initial rolls ran out was frustrating because it turns out there were new packages already in the house. 3. With the trash bag issue also came the inconvenience of needing to bring your trash to the disposal center which was only open 3 specific days during specific hours. Although this itself did not bother us, having no outside garbage can to keep trash in until we could bring it there was problematic because of critters gaining access to it. 4. Having a screen door on the front door would be fantastic! The cross breeze that entered every time we opened it was awesome however we did not leave it open because we did not want extra "guests" in someone else's home. Overall, the house is comfortable and a great place to stay.

A Kona Paradise with Stunning Views and Vibrant Nature

We had an amazing stay at this wonderful Kona Paradise in Hawaii. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely welcomed and at home. The house itself was cozy and well-designed, offering the perfect space to relax. The kitchen was a standout—extremely well-equipped with everything I needed to cook and feel right at home. The yard was a tropical paradise, filled with a beautiful array of plants, which really added to the overall charm of the place. We especially loved how serene it was, and at night, the sounds of the birds singing created a peaceful atmosphere. It was truly a slice of paradise! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway.

A total "nightmare"!

The interior of the property is infested with geckos due to a complete lack of maintenance. The walls, the moldings, the ceiling beams, the furniture and floors, even the towels, are covered with excrement. So dire was the situation that when watching television or eating at the table the geckos were dropping their excrement on us. Read the review dated December 10, 2024 from another guest; the property was just as bad at that time and the owners did nothing to improve it before our arrival. According to the owner this is “normal” in a natural environment which their neighbors say is untrue. There are many other issues: the refrigerator leaks water, the oven and the interiors of the kitchen cabinets are filthy, the washer and dryer are rusted as both are located outside under the building….the list goes on and on. The pictures do not reflect the reality at all. The situation was terrible, not livable, so we had to leave after 4 nights (with the owner’s approval) of our 17 night stay. We had to move from hotel to hotel and the owners refused to let us keep our food in the refrigerator until we located a more permanent rental. Though we eventually were able to negotiate a partial credit for our stay, this credit represented only a minor portion of our total costs incurred. In addition, this experience ruined our vacation. Stay away from this property!

Incredible location and views!

We really enjoyed our stay in Captain Cook. The gardens and views from the deck were absolutely amazing. Felt right at home. Loved hearing the birds chirping and walking thru your gardens. Communication with owner was very good. Beds were comfortable and home had all the supplies we needed. Our family hiked the pebble beach trail nearby and the views were just amazing. Important to drive down though to pebble beach and not attempt to walk as the hike back up the hill is challenging. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home and artwork with our family!

Supportive owners

Owners were incredibly responsive and helpful. Good directions to find property and lots of signs in house with instructions. Nice house, as described. Wonderful views from deck, though have your bug spray handy. Research the location as it is a drive to anywhere and if comfortable with that it is a good place to be. Local beach (black lava shingle - shoes required) is close but drive to it unless you are into hill climbing. An abundance of geckos around property; fun but occasionally messy. No BBQ. Trash/recycling a couple of miles away and easy to navigate.

Not what is shown

First, the good: Beautiful views, and we were there in late fall so the fact that there was no AC (as originally listed) wasn't as big an issue. There were a variety of dive fins to use and a washer and dryer. Disappointments: The property wasn't as nice as what the pictures represented. The host originally listed a 3rd bed in the living room and AC which we were counting on. However, there was no AC in the house and the springs in the pull out mattress in the living room were rusted and broken, and the bed itself smelled mildewy, as did one of the bedrooms and the bathroom. There were animal droppings literally everywhere- the floor, the rugs, the kitchen counters, the bathroom counters, the walls, and the patio was really covered. This was perhaps the biggest disappointment, since I had specifically relied on the reviews stating that the property was very clean. I contacted the host but she didn't resolve or address our issues during the stay. VRBO helpfully informed me after the fact that I should have reached out to them during the stay instead of relying on the host. Hard to spend all your vacation time trying to resolve an issue that shouldn't be there in the first place, especially when you are encouraged to work out the issue with the host first. Not sure if they will even post this. Pro Tip: Don't use VRBO, as they are far more interested in profit than protecting and supporting their guests. The company and the host have been unwilling to address our concerns.

We had an amazing stay at Kona Paradise. Just walking to the door makes you feel enveloped in aloha. Those 180 degree beach views were as advertised. Every night we were on the lanai watching the sunset. Love the sounds of nature throughout the day. Very comfortable, clean, great instructions and friendly assistance if we needed it (we didn't!).

Amazing Time in Paradise!

My husband and I recently stayed at Michele’s home in Hawaii and we had an amazing time! The home was exactly as listed, the amenities were plentiful (it had everything we needed), and the view of the ocean and sunsets from the deck is gorgeous. This neighborhood is a little quieter and slightly farther away from Kailua-Kona than others, but that’s exactly what we were looking for. I would definitely recommend Michele’s home to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful time on the island. Thanks again, Michele!

Amazing views

We were celebrating a fiftieth birthday and a 10 year anniversary. Upon arrival, the homes grounds were beautiful. The lanai was awesome with wonderful 180 views of ocean. I as well as my family literally could have spent the entire time there. The home was quaint and homey. The art was great. As mentioned by many, there were several critters. Coqui frogs and geckos especially. The coqui frogs were crazy and the geckos everywhere but did not bug us. My sister was wary at first, but ended up naming 2 lol. The on site host, who stays in the downstairs portion of the home, separate entrance, was so nice and sweet. She provided great recommendations. The owners were very responsive to our questions. The homes rely on rain water so you need to be cautious of that. We would all highly recommend this home for families or couples. If you can, try to get any food or necessities in kona as the home is not very close to stores as mentioned many times. The black pebble beach down the road from house was beautiful and nobody there when we went. Apparently there was a rough surf during time there so we couldn't swim there, but the views, waves and rocks were beautiful. We want to thank the owners and host for allowing us to stay in your home. It was such a wonderful experience.

The house was nestled on the hillside overlooking a spectacular ocean view. The house is lovely with tropical gardens surrounding the home with songbirds by day and peep frogs at night. There is always a beautiful breeze to keep you comfortable on the huge deck that extends the living space. Great home to relax after a day of exploring. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms and great common spaces with a nicely stocked kitchen for meal prep. Thank you Ron and Michele! We loved our time in your beautiful home.
