HAWAII STATE LAW: QUIET TIME 9PM and 8 AM: Quiet times includes active conversations out on the Lanai especially between 9PM and 8 AM: which is mandated by the State of Hawaii for all vacation rentals Mahalo nui loa, thank you very much for helping us keep the relaxing harmony Thank you. Climate: Remember Hawaii is tropical. Typically, there are two seasons. The rainy and dry season. When it rains it usually rains at night or in the afternoons. Mornings and midday can be the very best times to go snorkeling and kayakingKealakekua Bay is generally very calm. If the water is rough wait for it to calm down. Be safe! Create good vacation memories. The weather here is pretty steady. Sometimes we have an unusually hot day. We have fans in each room and 2 air conditioners. Recently our caretaker forgot to turn on the air conditioner early enough to cool the hot day air quickly. That won’t be forgotten again, as it takes several hours to cool the house down. Which is typically in the lower 70 degrees F with a humidity reading of 74 or 78% in rainy season We always want to share a harmonious atmosphere with guests so they enjoy their time here. We make special arrangements for our guests who return each year. We want you to be confident in your stay with us here in Hawaii. Cleanliness is important to us, we sanitize and sterilize our home. Which means our home is cleaned top to bottom before and after each visit.

The house is a very short jaunt from the water, where we were able to enjoy many spectacular sunsets. The home is lovely and very well-appointed. I would add that it's even more lovely than the photos suggest, which I can't say of most properties. The lanai on the front of the house is well-suited to lots of leisure and relaxation, of which we enjoyed plenty. Anna is an incredibly responsive, kind and generous host, and she really struck a great balance of being easily available to us while also affording us plenty of our own space. I highly recommend staying here. We hope to be back! ##### Dominic C.

Traveling with "twenty-somethings" and not "twenty-somethings" is a challenge and the home gave us enough space that everyone could relax or socialize without feeling intrusive. Anna is a wonderful host that is quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Access to Kona or the southern point of the island was convenient from this location. Manini park and water access is just down the street and other beaches are a very short drive. Highly recommend spending vacation time here. ##### Amy O.

The property was well-appointed for our needs. We appreciated having beach/snorkeling equipment and towels available for our use at the beautiful nearby bay, as well as coolers for hauling groceries and refreshments on road trips. There were activities and sights to enjoy on foot or by car. Our host was helpful in suggesting places to visit or picturesque places to eat, and also graciously shared with us some of the fruits and flowers found on site. Whether looking for a day to relax on a warm porch with a good book or a base camp from which to set out to explore all the sights on the island, this is the place to be. Mahalo Anna! ##### Monika C.

The house is beautiful and spacious and well kept and it is exactly as describe by the owner. My favorite area of the house is upstairs ,with 2 balcony the view is spectacular with the ocean and the vegetation of the land expectational. communication with the host was excellent, Anna is nice and friendly. she made everything easy. the community is 45 minutes away from the airport, must have a car to get around. it does get warm on the island but there is air condition . i enjoy my stay at Ann's home. whenever you decide to visit Kona this home is a must. the community is quiet and the people is respectable and friendly. i give this home and community a ten out of ten. Thank you Ann ##### Jasmin B.

The first thing to mention is the Hospitality that Anna provided to our family. 7 adults and 2 children felt overwhelming but Anna was quick to put our hearts at ease. This was essential for us to make our 1st ever family trip a special one. We also met Catherine who was equally as wonderful. They were both so helpful with every question we had and yet also made it feel very private for our family. The house is very spacious with lots of comfortable beds. All the ammenities a family needs. The Lanai was our favorite place to relax with room for all. Overlooking all the beauty hawaii has to offer (including an ocean view) A short walk to a community park that had everything we could hope for. Beautiful setting, snorkling, relaxing, having a picnic and enjoying the perfect hawaiin vibe. Our son proposed to his girlfriend at this park with the most beautiful sunset ever created! This place is a hidden gem!! The home is located about 30 minutes from shopping and tourist spots. And about an hour from popular beaches but this was exactly what we were looking for. There are closer beaches so be sure to check those out before deciding to do a more crowded beach. Overall the experience provided with this home and Anna's warm, kind, and thoughtful hosting was nothing short of perfection. Thank you Anna (and Catherine) for everything. We all feel like we made new friends 💗 ##### Bizzie P.

The walking distance to Manini Beach and Kealakekua Bay was the best. We were also only a ten minute drive to two step and some more amazing snorkeling. Took some time adjusting to the bugs (this is jungle atmosphere after all!) But overall we adapted quickly and loved it. The pwner was super responsive. Grandson loved the geckos! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/541ee730-a7bd-4bc9-82bb-75a52bf2780f-1751756539277.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Brian H.
