About this property

Private Pool. Fully Air-conditioned .

This home is new on the rental market. Previously, it was reserved for our family use only. It has been completely refurbished this year. It is the perfect getaway for those that would like their private pool and is located in a peaceful subdivision close to all the conveniences, shopping, dining, beaches and activities. Whether you are on your honeymoon or looking for a relaxing, romantic experience, this warm, welcoming, finely appointed one bedroom apartment provides modern comfort with the spirit of Hawaii. It opens out to a covered lanai and private pool, along with a new outdoor kitchen under the covered lanai for all your cooking. Includes, gas oven range , Microwave, coffee maker, toaster. It is at a perfect elevation of about 300' on the lower slope of Mount Hualalai. The lower elevation provides warm sunny days. This home has covered parking and washer and dryer.
Some pics show the old fence around the pool. It has been updated with a white vinyl fence for better privacy.

This property has a maximum occupancy of two (2) and is not child friendly.

The location is in close proximity to Kailua Kona village, shopping, restaurants, beaches, activities, the harbor, hiking trails and golf courses. The core of Kailua Kona where there are abundant restaurants and shopping is a short 5 min drive and the airport is only 15 minutes away.

The accommodation features granite counters. Tile floors throughout. The one bedroom is equipped with a new Cal King bed with memory foam topper, and a lovely lanai with dining table and chairs along with chaise lounges at the pool side along with a Weber gas grill, that enhances the inside/outside lifestyle of Hawaii.

The cottage is over 600 feet under roof.

Your host will provide you with details about the many island activities, tours, sight-seeing, beaches and cultural experiences as well as shopping and restaurants, all within an easy driving distance from your home.

The Hosts have lived in Kona for 33 years. They met here were married in the old Saint Michael's (pink) Catholic church downtown Kona on Alii drive. They now live on a working 12 acre coffee farm in Holualoa just up the mountain from Kailua Kona. They love welcoming guests and connecting them to the rich traditions of the islands. We love the island of Hawaii: the vastness, the colorful and unique local customs, the sunshine and sunsets of the Kona Coast, the beaches and beautiful blue waters along with the hunting and fishing traditions of the Big Island.

If you're headed out to explore the island, you are welcome to use a cold bag for shopping, cooler, beach chairs and towels.

This is a place you will call home... will want to remember... and will return to.

Comforts of home and a pool!
The pool house was just as the vrbo listing described. We saw so many beautiful sunsets right from our lanai We loved the privacy of the deck area and the pool. It was a bit cold due to the time of year we stayed, but we loved having the private setting in a neighbourhood so close to everything. 5 minutes from groceries, restaurants, downtown and only 15 to a cinema. Near the cinema was Sunset Kai Lanai (was a great restaurant with a view). Mark was great at communicating with us when we had questions and responded very quickly. The bed at the house was so comfortable we are now going to replace our bed at home. Mahalo for sharing your home with us

Professional Experience
Mark is an excellent host and provides a top-tier, professional rental experience. Everything was well cleaned and nothing felt substandard or neglected, e.g., no frayed towels or threadbare bedding. The kitchen was well stocked and had thoughtful "starter pack" of things that we loved. And this is all on top of the fact that you have access to a private pool where you can swim, or flounder like me, without fighting the crowds or worrying about looking silly; and a wonderful lanai where there's always a free lounge chair where you can watch the sunset. We had a wonderful time and I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone.

Wonderful time
My husband and I had a great time. This was the perfect setup for the 2 of us. The neighborhood is peaceful. The house is comfortable and clean. And having a private pool is awesome! And our hosts were very friendly. I hope future guests enjoy this house, neighborhood and hosts as much as we did. Thank you Mark and Denise for your hospitality.
