HOLUALOA COUNTRY HOME

The Holualoa Country Home is a one bedroom with a queen bed, small private patio area with some ocean view, cable TV, WiFi, full kitchen, bath with tub/shower. The sofa in living area lays flat to a bed. Minutes to Holualoa village. Close to Kailua-Kona town, the ocean, the ocean and beaches, airport,shopping and restaurants. Holualoa offers peaceful, country living at a cool elevation.

The Holualoa Country Home is clean, and comfortable. Most comfortable for couples, solo adventurers, friends traveling together and small families. The kitchen is well equipped with range, refrigerator,microwave, pots/pans, etc. We provide 4 sets of bath towels, beach towels, essentials (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hair dryer, some toilet tissue) and clean linens at each check in. There are beach chairs, umbrella, boogie board and coolers for your outdoor adventures. the house will always be clean with fresh linens at every check-in.

This home has two separate living areas (like a duplex). Each with their own entrance and outdoor patio. The two living areas are separated by a garage in the middle. The washer and dryer located in the garage are shared. Garage parking is also shared. there is one stall in the garage for this unit. there is also additional parking located on the side of the house.

Duarte Road is a paved, private road just south of Holualoa Elementary School and close to Holualoa Village. We are about 1/3 mile off of Mamalahoa Hwy., this is a country setting on a small family ranch. Only a few days a month some cattle will be down near the house.There is a gate at the house that needs to be opened to drive in and park and then kept closed when the cattle is down.

Holualoa does have coqui frogs that chirp at night, especially when it rains. There may also be noise from roosters, chickens in the distance and cattle when they are down near the house.

You'll need a car to get around while you are here. Holualoa Village is only minutes away, it is about 15 minutes to Kailua-Kona town. You should find everything you need in Kailua-Kona (Walmart, Target, Safeway , Costco, groceries, shopping, fast food, galleries, bars and restaurants.) We are about 35 minutes to Keahole Airport.

Many adventures await you during your time here on the Big Island. Some of our favorite beaches are magic Sands (15 minutes away), Honls, Kamakahonu Bay(in front of the Marriott King Kamehameha Hotel), Kekahakai STte Park (Mahaiula's), Kua Bay (Maniniowale Bay), Hapuna Beach to name a few. Snorkeling at Kahalu'u Beach, Kealakekua Bay and Honaunau Bay. Deep sea fishing, diving and night charters start from Honokohau Harbor. Scenic Valleys in Kohala and along the Hamakua Coast. Waterfalls on the East side of the island.A day trip south takes you to Punaluu Black Sands Beach, the cliffs off South Point and Green Sands Beach (Mahana Bay). Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa are accessible for those seeking seasonal Hawaiian snow or a glimps of the stars. So many adventure, too little time to truly enjoy all our island has to offer.

Wish we could have stayed here longer.
We booked this as a 1 night stay for our trip home out of Kona. It’s clean/comfy and has a nice little lanai where we enjoyed a cold drink as the sunset over the ocean on our last night in Hawaii. It’s a perfect spot for a couple with room for a +1 if needed.

Charming and cozy
We absolutely loved our stay at the charming Holualoa country home. The lanai boasts a stunning view of the ocean and sunset. While downtown Kona was sweltering in the heat, it was nice and cool on the mountain. I miss hearing the coqui frogs at night! The hosts leave lots of beach gear for your use - beach chairs, an umbrella, a boogie board, snorkels, a cooler, beach towels, etc., which is incredibly nice for those of us who fly in! I would not recommend a low-setting car for the drive up the mountain, though. You'll bottom out on some of the potholes.

Cozy country cottage in Holualoa
I knew I wanted to be away from the Kona area and have always loved the Holualoa laid back vibe. Great view from the lanai as I worked on my newsletter. Enjoyed the sunsets tremendously. No need for airconditioning as a leaving the windows slightly open works really well and if it get warmer or if you are warm from having been on a hike the ceiling fan at low speed in both the living room and bedroom work great. We had everything we could need and really enjoyed the coqui frogs serenading us as we went to bed. There is wonderful breakfast and coffee close by without having to go into Kona. It was loads of fun driving through the upper back roads - curvy and so lush and green. Kona has gotten ridiculous in collecting expensive parking fees especially close to the cruise terminal and so will only head to businesses that have free parking which is further away from the cruise terminal. Will stay again when are back on the west coast of the Big Island. Thank you very much for a lovely stay.

A few things
BAD: The toaster did not work very well. The dish rack was rusted. The shower mat was gross. The bathroom floor needed to be cleaned. There were some ants in the microwave stand. I re-cleaned the shower as it was not to my standards, but it was not overly bad. I was glad there were cleaning products underneath the sink. The hill to drive up was a bit of a climb. Better signage for the house would be good. GOOD: The view was awesome. The grounds were great. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. The water pressure was good as well as the drain in the shower (I hate standing water). Lots of little treats (snacks n coffee). Overall I would recommend but if you are picky it might not be for you.

Country cottage away from the bustle
Perfect for the two of us, this cottage (a diplex with a garage between the untis) is in the coffee countryside above Kailua Kona. Had everything we needed for our stay. Owner was terrific and even helped us when we had two flight cancellations for our return home. TBH, the first time you do the steep driveway you may think “ are you kidding me?” But after that first up and down you are a pro. Would stay there again!

Rest
My mom passed a little over a month ago and we had all this planning to do for her celebration of life on top of dealing with the grief. I was invited to a birthday party on the 2nd and I thought it would give me a chance to take a break. And it was perfect! The place was located in the hills where it was nice and cool and peaceful! I was able to breathe and rest. An added bonus was the Ohia trees that lined the drive. It is my favorite tree.

Nice Stay
This rental was well maintained and very clean. The bed was excellent which we truly appreciated as had just flown in from the mainland. We also appreciated the coffee and creamer provided as we hadn't had time to get supplies yet. The kitchen was well supplied also and even had a cutting board which many rentals forget about. The one thing lacking was a small table of some kind to eat a meal. so we used the coffee table. Our only real struggle was finding the rental. Our Google map was totally baffled by the area and took us in the entirely wrong direction several times. We finally tried asking for it to send us to the elementary school and there we could find Duarte Rd. It is a lot further up the hill too than we guessed and we stopped once to ask directions. It might be helpful to include the mileage from the bottom of the hill to the house as an added assist. We had a nice bonus of seeing 2 stunning sunsets from the small deck. Our only
