This property was very clean, well equipped and came with an incredible ocean view. We truly enjoyed the pool and outdoor living spaces. Check in/out process was contactless and easy. We stayed for a whole month and a few issues came up during the stay and we always received quick responses back from the property team to assist us in resolving things. We would stay here again for sure!

This house in the hillside above Kona airport is wonderful. Massive house w 3 bedroom suites, large kitchen with many amenities and extras like wine fridge, coffee grinder and many tools for cooking. The lanai and pool area is perfect for watching the sunset and the coffee trees, landscaping and wildlife add to retreat of the house at the top of the hillside street. Beds were great, plenty of towels and pool toys. Pool was more decorative than functional as non-heated so got very cool in evenings, but spa worked well for us. Only complaint is the couch in living room and lanai furniture seating is below the level of luxury of the rest of the home. Property managers were very responsive and all needs were met.

The photos don’t do this house justice - it was a gorgeous house with a perfect location. We loved the pool/hot tub and that each bedroom had its own bathroom. We hope to stay here again!

We had an amazing stay fir 10 days in March. It was my family of four (two teenagers) and my parents who had just turned 70. Was absolutely perfect for our family. We had a few wuestions when we arrived and the property manager responded immediately. The house is large and all of the rooms are spacious. The master bathroom is incredible. The property is gorgeous and the outdoor area with the covers lanai, pool and hot tub were spectacular. We did not have any issues with the hot tub mentioned by some previous people. It heated fast and was perfect. We’ve already recommended this property to two other friends planning trips to the Big Island.

Location was very good, nice privacy, excellent views, well maintained house. Only drawback was early morning roosters in area that will wake you up if you are a light sleeper. Pool and Hot tub were very nice. Waterfall feature shown on website was not available. Kitchen was great. Two Master bedroom were awesome with Fabulous showers.

Thank you for sharing your home, we had a great family couple of days.. I’m sure the house keepers didn’t have much to do except for bed sheets? I like things clean and like to leave them that way.. we took all our trash to the dump and I was sure to clean out the fridge...

The property manager, Nick, is amazing. He is professional and reliable, a great communicator and gave us a seamless booking experience. The view and convenient neighborhood was perfect. The beds and home is wonderful. Elite is among the best, the only reason we did not give this review 5 stars is because of some maintenance issues of the house (broken garbage disposal, broken lanai fans, broken hot tub, old TVs/ technology, fluorescent lights, broken shades, broken blender, many bugs in window sills, and many bees/ slugs/ mosquito visitors. Some simple upgrades will make the house a first class property. We still enjoyed our stay and understand the big issue may be the norm in the area.

Great but the pool was freezing never had this trouble last time we were the year before. It was a ridiculous email about a stain and use of propane

My friends and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home with a magnificent pool and perfect view of the ocean and extraordinary sunsets. We loved the spacious rooms, each with its own bathroom. The kitchen was well-equipped and the layout indoors and outdoors flowed well. The covered lanai was great for enjoying the tropical setting even if a rain shower blew over. The lush garden was a delight to walk through and perfectly set off the idyllic ocean view and enticing pool and spa. I hope to make this a regular vacation destination!
