We enjoyed our stay art the property. The pool area was a great place to enjoy the sun and grill out. The location was great and centrally located to what we wanted to do while in Kona. Getting to the airport at the end of our stay was a breeze.
Would definitely stay again! Great location, fully equipped with anything you could need, and Luke makes sure you are met and taken care of with aloha!
Everything was wonderful at this location. The host was amazing and above what the description of the property showed. Highly recommended if coming to the big Island!!!
This has been a wonderful experience and vacation! Our host was so attentive, friendly and giving! We were even welcomed with a lovely basket of goodies. The house and property were spotless and so relaxing, the photos donât do it justice!
we really enjoyed our stay as this property is quiet, beautiful view and close to everything on the west side of the island- also very well stocked kitchen, and super comfy beds.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Incredible views, gorgeous property. Melia was a truly lovely host. This property had everything we needed as a family of 7. Highly recommend.
The host was nice and had everything we needed to prep some of our own food to save money. The outdoor space was a nice place to spend the afternoon and the pool was clean and cooling. They had all the beach essentials like chairs, umbrellas, and gear for the ocean. Would definitely stay there again.
So quiet so peacefulGreat location up the hill from airportSuch a lovely hostRefreshing poolTwo bedroom one bath- strong very hot showerLovely gift welcome basketWell stocked kitchenNote no dishwasher stove top or oven- but great portable baking oven for any cooking needs plus bbqGood value and serene beauty
Melia was so friendly! Property came w/ ALL one could want. View as advertised - stunning sunsets.10-15 min. drive to Kailua-Kona for dining, shopping, sites. Close to hway to explore the W side. Chickens & frogs & footsteps overhead noisy, though.
We are so happy that we stayed in this house for our vacation! From arrival to departure we felt at home in this beautiful home in a very nice neighborhood. We had everything we needed and more. Thanks to Melia for all the great fruits and more! We would definitely come back.
My husband and I spent a week here and loved every day of our stay. The pictures do not do the outdoor spaces justice - the pool area is expansive and perfect for sunbathing and taking in the sights of the coast below you. Melia was a generous and gracious host and even went so far as to leave us a gift to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I highly recommend staying here if youâre looking for a rental in the Kona area.
After having difficulty logging into VRBO, host responded quickly with checking in info. Home is beautiful with overlook of ocean from the deck with pool. Host was very friendly gave us recommendations of places to go and things to do, as well as lots of info about life in Hawaii. Highly recommend this property to fellow travelers.
We had a warm welcome from our host. Our house was furnished with everything we needed. The pool was relaxing and we loved watching the beautiful sunsets from the pool or on the lanai as we ate our meals. Itâs the perfect place, like a home away from home.
Pure AlohaâŠboth the accommodations and the host. Melia and her cute dog, Ginger greeted us each morning. Melia is a kind host who offered us recommendations and baked us banana bread.
The unit is comfortable, clean, quite, and safe. It had every beach item you would need in the garage. It is in a perfect location on the Kona side. We canât wait to go back. A hui hou, Melia and Ginger!
I would like to thank Melia, Sam, Luke and Chad. Such great hosts. We had a last minute check in issue and they were more than helpful with the change. the location was perfect for us. We had plans to visit most of the Island and this was a very central starting point. The home was stocked with all that we needed including coffee for our first morning. (which was needed. LOL)
The view was awesome!
Hope to be back. Aloha!
We have been to the island many times and usually stay in the heart of Kailua Kona, but we decided to change it up this trip. We are so happy we did! The location of this property is fantastic. You are so close to Kona, Costco, the upper highway and the beaches. The rental was so incredibly well equipped with everything you could could need. We loved that after a day on the beach that we could go back and the temperature is cooler. The views from the lanai are amazing. We could see the whales from there. Melia and Sam were great hosts. They are so nice and personable. They fresh fruit was great too! This is really a fantastic spot to relax and recharge! The pictures donât do it justice! We will definitely be back to this property!
You could not imagine a more lovely place and more wonderful host than Melia and her home. The pictures simply do not do justice to the magnitude of the beauty. We awoke every morning and had coffee as we gazed at the Pacific, listening to a symphony of birds (and thankfully, far fewer roosters than most other places we have stayed). Melia has a really genuine and warm sense of hospitality, and you feel this at a human level and also in what a generous and thoughtful host she is. The place itself is really, really nice, has everything you need and has *nice* things - like fluffy towels and nice sheets and great cooking gear. She also has everything you need for the beach, and the place is only 20 minutes from our favorite beach. Also 20 minutes from hiking in the cloud forest. And if you donât want to go anywhere, you can hang out on the lanai and enjoy the incredible pool, and views. We will most certainly be back - to see Melia again (and her sweet little dog) and because this is a fantastic place to stay.
This is a wonderful home to stay in. Very quiet and safe, and a nice comfortable size. Our hosts Melia, Sam and wonderful little Ginger Are The Best You Could Ever Ask For. Kona Palisades has all the amenities for a relaxing vacation. It was hard to leave each day to explore the Island. Nice kitchen stocked with everything you need and a full-sized refrigerator with good ice maker. It is only a few minutes away from great beaches and places to see. We enjoyed the wonderful view of the Ocean and fantastic sunsets that reflect in the beautiful infinity pool. I miss talking with Melia everyday and learning about the Island and different places to check out. All the wonderful fruit that she shared with us is grown on the property. There is great beach gear to use, chairs, sun umbrellas, snorkel equip., ice chests, great big towels, just to list a few items, and swim equipment for the pool. The infinity pool is incredible, and sitting on the lanai overlooking the pool and enjoying breakfast with the beautiful views of the morning sky and ocean was great. The time went by to fast. Canât wait to return.
I grew up in Hawaii on the island of Oahu. Since leaving for college, I always hoped to one day return to my favorite island- the BIG ISLAND! So now we have this home to share and hope you'll love it as much as we do. I have 4 grown children and retired from teaching at the elementary school level in Multi-Arts...visual art, vocal music, theater and dance.
It is so close to the airport (down the hill by 7 min) and so close to Costco (7 min.) and to Kailua- Kona. Up near the Mamalahoa Hwy., it is convenient to go to Waimea/Kamuela or over to the Hilo side. The beaches are all close!
