We had a party of five, and we all loved the place. The beautiful view of the ocean was unobstructed from other homes and the neighborhood was practically silent. The house had a big open central layout for hanging out with private wings for the bedrooms. We would love to go back.

This property is amazing. The minute we walked in, we decided that we never wanted to go home. My favorite activities in the house included relaxing on the back porch/lanai overlooking the ocean and taking warm evening showers in outdoor shower. Having the kitchen and laundry facilities was wonderful. We had the astronomer come out to use the telescope with us and it was an incredible, must-do experience. Our kids loved using the boogie boards and sand toys at the beach. There is even a cart in the garage to transport your gear at the beach. I almost don’t want to recommend this property because we loved it so much that we want it to be available next time we return . 😄

The owners and property managers have thought of everything to make a guest feel as if they are at home. The neighborhood is perfect. And best of all, the night sky is dark for observing.

Beautiful house, great for family time. The kitchen is amazing, along with the rooms, bathrooms and you have to love the lanai. As with other reviews the only thing that would have made it 5-star is if the hot tub was actually hot. We followed the directions exactly every day to get the hot tub heated up, but it only made it to 89 degrees, the pool was 87.
The normal stuff not typically reviewed: Towels, bedding, plates, kitchen equipment, furniture, beach gear; all the normal things we could take for granted, were great.

Steve Jobs coined the phrase “insanely great” and this can aptly be applied to this property. It’s the best AirBnB we’ve stayed and and we are avid users. Spacious, clean, modern, it feels like it was outfitted by the Four Seasons and has the most spectacular views. We actually liked being 30 min away from Kona at Kohala Ranch. We’d also recommend participating in the unique astronomy offer that Jeff & Suzanne can orchestrate. It was amazing. I know we’ve never met, but I can assure you that you will love this place

This house was perfect for our getaway. We loved the two master bedrooms with outdoor showers. Modern kitchen was well stocked with cookware and spices. Everything we needed to cook while we were there. Also really appreciated the beach chairs, towels, snorkel gear. The view was great- we could see whales jumping and breaching from the lanai.
Super easy check in and out- no problems at all. We would definitely come back!
