Kailua-Kona Exceptional Oceanview Home - Heated Oasis Pool & Stunning Ocean View

Location to beaches and town is good. View was excellent! The hosts were communicative … and left gifts too

The pool is down 2 flights of stairs so not really seamless with the rest of the property. (Due to being on a steep hill)

the owners were so thoughtful, always prompt every time i had a question, added lots of pillows per my request. they were the nicest owners i have ever stayed with. they have the best supplied kitchen, the best supplied bathroom for hair and makeup i have ever had on my vacations. incredible views and sunsets. and i was just so so so happy to have A/C in the bedrooms.

not a thing

The property is everything it states and then some! Beautiful, comfortable and all the amenities you could ask for. This is an exceptional property and well appointed.

That our stay wasn’t longer.

View, that’s it….

Absolutely Not Worth the Price – Serious Safety, Cleanliness, and Privacy Issues We recently stayed at this property and had a truly disappointing and frustrating experience—one that deserves full transparency for future renters. After sending a detailed message to the owners via email, text, and the Booking.com messaging system, we received no response whatsoever. No acknowledgment, no apology, and no attempt to resolve or address the dozens of valid concerns we raised. Let me start by saying that this home is not rental-ready in its current condition, especially not for the $11,000+ price tag. Below are the most pressing issues we encountered during our stay, all of which we documented with photos and video: ⸻ 🚨 Major Safety Hazards: • Cameras pointed directly at the swimming pool and hot tub, which we found extremely inappropriate and invasive, especially since our daughters changed out back. This is a clear violation of Booking.com, Airbnb, and VRBO privacy policies. We requested confirmation that all footage be deleted. No response. • Pool fence was falling apart, with a 2-foot opening that a child could easily slip through and fall off the back of the property. Additionally, the pool gate didn’t align or lock properly, defeating its purpose. This is a serious liability. • The hot tub lacked all safety signage (such as time or age limits). Our 10-year-old daughter fainted after being in it briefly. She became dizzy, lost vision and hearing, and collapsed into my arms just before falling down the stairs. We had to carry her inside in a panic. With a history of a near-drowning incident in our family, this situation was traumatizing and unacceptable. • Fire alarms were not daisy-chained, and only one went off during a middle-of-the-night alert. The alarms were cheap and non-replaceable, and the home clearly does not meet basic fire code.

Great location. Lovely neighborhood setting. Beautiful views, especially sunset. Very comfortable. Hosts have made an effort to provide high-quality sheets, bedding and towels and bath amenities. All you could want in one place - from private pool and hot tub, to lots of space and comfort. Hosts have thought of everything - providing beach and activity equipment, cooler, great recommendations for restaurants and activities. Hosts were very responsive and helpful.

Nothing. Only wish we could have stayed longer!
