The property was exactly as mentioned. The location in our opinion was part of the draw of this. It was away from the coast a little that so it provided a rest from the heat (a little).

The porch was perfect for watching sunsets after a long day exploring the island. There were lots of beautiful beaches close to the home and plenty of beach chairs for us to use.

The home was clean and a perfect space for a mid-size family (we had 7 in our party). The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook our meals there. We ate nearly every meal on the BEAUTIFUL wrap around porch that overlooked the ocean. Now let’s talk about the grounds. The whole outside of the house is a tropical paradise! Our boys loved running around the yard looking for geckos, falling coconuts and playing ball. The porch has so many quiet, cozy spaces to soak in the quiet of the neighborhood and beautiful views! The back yard is so relaxing with the fire pit and hot tub. The outdoor shower was a super fun and unique addition-our boys loved cleaning off in there after a long day at the beach. The only slight downside is how far the property is from beach access. It’s a minimum 20 min drive to the local beaches. But it’s also nice to be close to the mountain pass to get to the other side of the island faster than when staying in Kona. Overall, we had an amazing stay and would absolutely stay here again! ##### Kristen K.

Where do I start with a review after such an incredible stay?! Caroline is a delight to work with and she made sure our stay was special even before we arrived.  The house layout was perfect for our group of six. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Beautiful flowers and landscaping both in the front yard and in the back near the hot tub made for a tranquil setting. We had everything we needed in the kitchen to make great meals (including a night of grilling). We felt at home and cared for throughout our experience. You can't go wrong selecting this property for your Hawaiian adventure! ##### Anna M.

Caroline’s home is absolutely perfect. So beautiful decorated and the lay out is perfect. Very thoughtfully done. Outdoor areas are just gorgeous. The huge front porch/veranda is the best spot on the property. Gorgeous views and beautiful place to watch the sunset!! I would not hesitate to stay here again. We travelled all over the island. It was the perfect place to come home to after adventuring. Communication was excellent as well. Thank you Caroline for sharing your beautiful home, Mahalo! ##### amy s.

The front porch and it view of the ocean was our favorite for both morning coffee and watching the sunset. The house was immaculate and well appointed with appliances and dishes. The refrigerator was immaculate as were dishes but there were a few spices for use. This has been one of our favorite rentals! The pool is usable and just a short drive away b joy it is mostly used for lap swimming by older people. We didn’t feel it was a. Great place for kids to play- fine with us the ocean was amazing and there are day passes available at Hilton Waikoloa. The Waikoloa village grocery store and restaurants are very close. Highly recommend this rental. ##### Kimberly A.

The home was in great condition and had everything we needed for the time we stayed including kitchen items to beach chairs and cooler. The area was in the ideal location close to beaches and even in a good location to go over to Hilo for the day over the Saddle road or around on the Belt road. There was even a full market (grocery store) within a mile or so which was a huge plus when you needed that one last minute item. We also met the caretaker Stan who stays in another part of the home and was very helpful and friendly. You would not even know Stan was staying there if someone didn't tell you, he was so quiet. Everyone enjoyed the comfort and location of the home and hope to go back soon. Thanks Charlie ##### charles s.

Everything about this place speaks of relaxation and encourages the aloha spirit that should permeate a vacation to Hawaii. The house was well equipped to meet all of our needs and upon arrival we were greeted with some delicious fresh pineapple and other treats. The rooms are spacious and the outside areas are fantastic. The neighborhood was very quiet making it very easy to relax and get great rest. There is a great ocean view from the lanai, which by the way is a great place to enjoy and evening meal. There is no A/C but with the Waikoloa breezes A/C is not necessary. The owner is very responsive and was sure to check in on us via email to ensure we were enjoying our stay. The location of the house is great for getting to many places on the Big Island. The Kohala beaches (Hapuna, Mauna Kea, Waialea, etc..) are within a short drive away, access to the new saddle road over to Hilo is close, and Waimea is likewise a short drive away. My family loved it and would highly recommend Hale O Malina to anyone. ##### Seth R.

As a family, we always rent a house and this was the best house we have ever rented. We used every amenity. Propane grill, outdoor shower, propane fire pit, hot tub, lanai, beach towels, cooler, boogie boards, beach chairs, toaster, Blu-ray, books and popcorn bowl. There was a gift basket and a trey of pineapples for us. There is a lot of room for everyone to have their own space. My space was the round swivel chair and ottoman in the corner and the downstairs bed and bath. This place is very clean and organized. I could not think of one thing that I needed that it did not have. Driving home at night was amazing because the house is lit up. The palm trees have string lights around them that you can see from down the hill. The market and Gas station are 5 minutes away at the entrance of the complex. Kona is only 45 minutes away. Hapuna Beach is less than 15 minutes away. Hilo is an hour and 15 away. Waimea is 30 minutes away. Waimea is a small town that reminded us of Texas. They have a few stores that are actually cheaper then the touristy Kona. Tex Drive In is 45 minutes away. Not a theater but great food. We are from Chicago so we had no issue with the drive times, construction or the wind. I would love to go back for another week. ##### Jason P. Stayed 7 nights in Nov 2016
