We’ve stayed in this neighborhood several times and Manini Point House is a favorite. We love everything about it: beautifully decorated, wonderful vibe, everything we need. Elizabeth is a fabulous host and we can’t wait to return. ##### Susan W.

Kealakekua Bay is just spectacular. Elizabeth was a warm host and the home has a great wrap around porch, expansive kitchen for group cooking, and a ping pong table which was great for teens and adults alike. We loved our stay here and highly recommend it if you are looking to stay in a neighborhood environment without a lot of tourist activity around you. ##### Mary R.

This beautiful home was to rent, had an extremely well stocked kitchen and had room for 6 of us to spread out. ##### Iris W.

We all know that you can’t pick your neighbors and in this case between the barking dogs and very very early roosters whose coop was right next to us made watching sunrise a daily occurrence. Wax earplugs were very helpful! ##### Tom B.

Great Location! Awesome view of the ocean and mountains. Thank you Elizabeth for the nice welcoming basket of fruits. 😊 ##### Houria A.

We feel so lucky to have stayed in this sweet neighborhood several times and this is hands down our favorite house. It’s absolutely beautiful and filled with aloha—the upstairs suite is so comfortable. Elizabeth and Steve are great hosts! This is definitely our happy place. ##### Susan W.

Manini Beach House was a beautiful place to stay and had wonderful amenities, but we spent most of our time outside enjoying the lovely lanai. A charming spot to relax and listen to the coqui at night. The house has everything one could want and is a great place to stay with family - plenty of room in the kitchen, even if there are multiple cooks! A fantastic location! ##### Anne E.

The location was amazing, 1 minute walk to a beautiful snorkling beach. Elizabeth was a great host and let us tour her farm which was so beautiful. Your about 20 mintues away from Downtown Kona. I highly recommend this house for your place to stay on the Big Island. ##### Christine F. Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2023
