Outdoors at Mermaid Cove, fun and excitement await you. From the beautiful sandy beach, eight-person Jacuzzi, and expansive swimming pool that flows underneath the lanai, you'll never be at a loss for something to do. No need to pack and go to the beach—you're already there! Enjoy a relaxing morning on the beachfront lounge chairs. Take a dip in the ocean, then wash off the salt and sand in the refreshing heated outdoor shower. Fix a tasty lunch in our covered outdoor barbecue kitchen and serve it to your friends from the swim-up bar.
This gorgeous home is secluded in a 24-hour guarded and gated oceanfront community with keypad entry just a short walk to the classic Hawaiian town of Kailua. Watch the cruise ships from the Kailua-Kona Pier, where you'll have access to Hawaii's best scuba diving, big-game fishing, kayaking, and dolphin and whale watching. Visit the famous farmers market. Enjoy shaved ice or a cup of Kona coffee. Dine on a light snack or a gourmet meal, buy an inexpensive souvenir or a piece of fine art, book an activity, go for a swim, or hang out at the beach. The pier is the official starting and finishing point of the Ironman World Championship (held annually in October) and a great place to watch the sunset. Everything you want and need is readily available in the heart of Kailua-Kona town.
You'll love exploring the area and its many significant Hawaiian cultural landmarks. Both the Hulihee Palace and the Mokuaikaua Church are located on Ali'i Drive. King Kamehameha I spent his last years living near the current site ...

This home did not disappoint. We are a family of 5 and my mother came with. We were celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary, high school graduation, 8th grade graduation and celebrating health. Our 3 children joined us, 18,16, and 14. My mother joined us too.The location was wonderful. Snorkeling right out front. A short drive to Kona for shopping and food. 20 minutes to the airport. Costco, Walmart and a new Safeway very close to the house. A few restaurants within walking distance, maybe 10-15 minutes. Plenty of space to stretch out. We spent most nights on the lanai talking. Meals at the big dining table. The pool area was nice, there is a public walkway right next to the house, which I was not aware of. It was fine, just more traffic than expected. There is a wall that helps with privacy. Maybe a little more greenery on that wall would need nice. Plenty of pool toys, especially for small children. The kitchen was stocked! There were starter supplies-water, dish detergent and clothing detergent. Small shampoo and conditioners, but I would bring shampoo/conditioner, and body soap.
Small beach out front, usually filled up with other beachgoers. Woke up one morning to a large cruise ship, was there for only about 12 hours, can hear the engine, but we just played music in background. The sound system did not work, which was disappointing. The hammock was broke upon our arrival, but was replaced within a day. Not sure if the pool was cleaned. Amazing house, highly recommend.

Expansive and family friendly property. Lots of communication and direction. Only issues were 10am check out, some dust on fans (beware the dust allergy sensitive types) and termites, and cushions in need of replacement. Generally, a very good stay. Beach front perfection with crashing waves, and good views. Kona!

Fabulous time with the family at this home right on the beach. Amenities were plentiful and kitchen was well equipped for us to cook most meals at home. Enjoyed the pool and many seating options as well

All the boxes were checked for our time in Kona, everything in the house was so well thought out and very organized. Didn’t have any luck with the sound system, but zero complaints about anything else.

The house sits on an amazing small private beach that has a protected reef. The kids enjoyed snorkeling all day and as parents we really didn’t have to worry about waves, etc. The house has plenty of rooms and space for a large family. Also, the house has more the of small niceties such as utensils, spices, plates, etc… than numerous other vacation rentals we have stayed at.

The house was as advertised and fit out family of 8 adults and 6 grandkids vey well. The pool was amazing and the beach was pretty cool too. My only complaint is the BBQ is hard to light despite changing the starter battery. When it did light there was a big Whoosh.

Our stay was amazing! The house lives up to the photos. Our younger children loved in the pool, while the teenagers enjoyed the beach right out front. We enjoyed coffee on the balcony watching the waves crash, fish as well as a sea turtle in the tide pool, humpback wales breaching and cocktails with the sunset at night. There was plenty of space for our family of 11. The house was well stocked and had everything we needed.
Thank you for a wonderful vacation! 🌺
