Upscale Kona Retreat, Ocean Views, Private Pool, BBQ, AC's
Welcome to paradise in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii! 🌴 Escape to this stunning 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom oasis boasting breathtaking ocean views and a private pool for the ultimate Hawaiian getaway. Wake up to the panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean right from your private lanai, front windows and side deck. Enjoy unforgettable sunsets on your private lanai dipping behind the horizon. Nestled in the heart of Kona on 5 minutes from Magic Sands Beach and 10 minutes from Kona Town shops and restaurants, and 20 minutes from Kona airport, this serene retreat offers tons of convenience. Cool off in the refreshing private pool and surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, views of the neighborhood and ocean vistas off the side deck. Lounge on the sun-kissed deck while sipping your favorite tropical drink. Charcoal BBQ grill and tons of seating/dining options.
Located just 2 miles from excellent Pickleball courts, this home also provides paddles and a ball for guest use.
House setup: You will have access to the entire top level and main part of the home, pool and backyard, deck and lanai--all to yourself. There's a fully separate ohana one bedroom apartment below that houses a family member that is available to help should you need anything at all; otherwise you will not hear from us and will have full privacy. There are NO shared spaces. None of the spaces are shared and there's plenty of parking in the driveway and on the street right in front. Should you need additional space to rent, you may inquire about it.
Bedrooms: Three spacious bedrooms designed for comfort and tranquility. Drift off to sleep with the gentle ocean breeze, comfy beds and plush bedding and pillows, and wake up rejuvenated for a day of island adventures. Note: we have fans in all the bedrooms and with the windows open, there's a lovely breeze that helps you fall right to sleep. We have portable units in each bedroom if needed on a warm day; we do not have central AC. The primary bedroom has two large closets, ensuite bathroom and a desk/vanity for those needing to get a little work done or have another place to get ready. Iron and ironing board are provided.
Bathrooms: Two modern bathrooms featuring all the amenities you need for a refreshing stay including a deep soaking tub, both have Bluetooth speakers.
Fully Equipped Kitchen: Whip up delicious meals in the fully stocked and equipped kitchen, complete with state-of-the-art appliances, custom cabinets, white quartz countertops, live edge wood shelves and ample space for cooking and dining. This is not your usual, basic vacation rental set up--we designed and fully stocked this kitchen for our guests that love to cook as much as we do!
Outdoor Living: Unwind in the outdoor living space, perfect for al fresco dining or simply lounging while enjoying the ocean vistas and tropical ambiance amongst tropical fruit trees and foliage. There are so many places to read, lounge, sunbathe, soak all the island vibes. We'd like to point out that our private pool is not fenced so pay extra close attention to your younger family members!
Please note, while we have a regular extermination service for bugs we don't want, our home is in a tropical climate and you are lulled to sleep by the relaxing sound of coqui frogs and you will see beautiful green geckos scampering on the deck, lanai and around the windows--it's lovely and they won't hurt you at all. In fact, they seem to be very curious little guys, and will often sit and watch you from a distance and run and hide if they know you've spotted them!
Local Attractions: Explore the beauty of Kona! From stunning beaches to vibrant local culture and outdoor activities like snorkeling, surfing, visiting the active volcano and hiking--there's something for everyone! Close to shopping centers, restaurants, groceries and entertainment options, making it easy to explore the local flavors and enjoy the vibrant Hawaiian lifestyle. We love taking a share drive down to Capital Cook for more restaurants, shops and beaches.
Amenities: High-speed Wi-Fi, smart TV's in each room with lots of streaming options, access to washer/dryer, linens, towels and tons of beach equipment provided and more to ensure a comfortable and convenient stay.
Live like a local in the mature neighborhood with great neighbors, huge monkey pods trees and access to a walking trail. You will see the many friendly neighbors on their daily walk including the four-legged ones that live nearby in the neighborhood as well. Experience the essence of Hawaii in this luxurious home, where every moment is filled with relaxation, beauty, and the spirit of aloha. Book your stay now and create unforgettable memories in paradise!

What a place! We spent 6 fantastic days here, enjoying the pool, the view and sunsets. Everything you wish for is provided, in a clean, spacious apartment. We were 6 adults and had plenty of room for everyone, both inside and out. Parking is available for 3 vehicles, and also provided are beach equipment such as chairs and parasols, which we made use of. The hosts were also awesome, with great communication. Would highly recommend!
The house was just as advertised. Great layout, well-appointed kitchen, beautiful backyard with pool, and picture-perfect sunsets from the huge lanai. Conveniently located to Kailua-Kona and beaches. I can highly recommend Brooke’s vacation houses
We stayed at this property for about a week in September and absolutely loved it! The bedrooms are great, and the kitchen along with the huge dining table made our meals really fun after long beach days. Waking up and enjoying coffee on the lanai was definitely the highlight of our stay! The pool in the back was a lot of fun too, even though we only used it once; we really wish we had spent more time there, especially since the yard is huge. Having laundry onsite will definitely have us staying there again in no time! Thank you for the beautiful memories made!
From the moment we booked the house, communication was above and beyond. Coming from Alaska, we had all the questions! The house was better than we could have dreamed. Everything was thought of from the decor to the comfort of the beds. The location is a little oasis overlooking the ocean. Morning coffee on the lanai while watching the sunrise was so serene. We are sad to be leaving but have the best memories to hold on to. Thank you for sharing your space with our family!!
We arrived at the home in the afternoon. Prior to arrival we had communicated with the owners who were so helpful in answering our questions. Beds were comfortable. The layout of the house was great. Each of the bedrooms has an individual AC unit which quickly cooled down the rooms. The home has beach chairs, a cooler, snorkeling gear, and beach towels. So nice to not have to worry about that stuff. The view from the deck overlooks the ocean and you can sit and watch the sunset. So amazing. The owners thought of everything. The location is great. Close to the airport, Costco. It was like being at home with a much better view. Would definitely stay here again.
We cannot say enough about this amazing property. From the moment we booked this house, any questions from us were responded almost immediately. The location of this house is ideal for people who want to be close to town but not IN town. This house is located right on the beautiful walking trail . Every morning we went for a walk before it got too warm.For those who enjoy snorkeling, there is a fantastic beach only 5 mins from the house. The house itself was perfect for the 6 of us. The kitchen is fully equipped to make any meal you can think of. The best part of the house is the lanai where we spent most of our time. When I get home, I will be buying my own daybed ! We also really enjoyed the pool. The sun hits the pool until mid afternoon which was perfect for us. We will definitely come back to this house.
We stayed at Brooke's vacation rental with our 5-month-old as well as our friends who had a 2-year-old. The house was perfect for our group! There was a lot of beach gear and pool floaties/ toys and the toddler could not get out the back door to access the pool by himself. The sliding door was a bit difficult for the adults to open but it ended up being a good thing to prevent the toddler from exiting! The driveway is a bit tight so you have to be really careful in your rental car pulling in and out. The view from the Lanai was just wonderful in the mornings at sunrise and in the evenings at sunset. There's also a great walking trail along the road in front of the house that extends a good ways. The location is great for privacy however you would want to have a rental car to stay there to access downtown and the beaches. The host was a great communicator and super accommodating when we needed help. We overall loved our experience and would come back in a heartbeat!
We stayed here for 10 days with our adult kids and grandkids in January. The hosts were great, lots of helpful communication. The welcome packet was full of lots of info and recommendations. The home is lovely, decorated beautifully and the kitchen is super stocked with lots of extras, as is the whole home, the concept is take one leave one. If you use something up, replace it. Well worth it when faced with lots of small items you probably forgot so are grateful to have. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The pool is unheated which makes sense in a tropical climate but made it too chilly for some to swim in January. The climate also brings adorable geckos, ants if you leave food out and a myriad of chirping birds we loved. It is in a family friendly neighborhood that made me feel safer, so don’t be a jerk and party loud or late into the night. Good location, close to everything and the home has plenty of space to relax. The view is gorgeous and lots of friendly neighbors walk the street in front. Plenty of room for our 2 rental cars to park. Would return again!
