Kona Oceanfront-Gorgeous, Quiet, Sleeps 6

Discover paradise at our stunning oceanfront retreat! Nestled amidst swaying palms and lush tropical greenery, this three-bedroom, three-bathroom sanctuary offers a serene getaway for up to six guests. Wake up to the soothing sound of waves crashing, and soak in panoramic views of the turquoise Pacific; where spinner dolphins and whales swim, and breathtaking sunsets sink into the sea.

NOTE: There is no central air conditioning. This is a tropical home with strategically placed ceiling fans and open-air louvered windows to take advantage of the trade winds that fan a breeze from the ocean during the day and the mountains at night. The master and guest bedrooms upstairs have air conditioners for those who prefer a bit of extra comfort during slumber.

Unwind in this luxury two-story home at Kona Onenalo, a gated community of only 12 free-standing residences four miles south of Kailua-Kona town center and one mile north of Keauhou - a golfer’s haven. Lounge on our spacious lanais, dip into the sparkling oceanfront pool and spa, or take a short stroll to pristine Magic Sands beach. Explore our “private” swimming and snorkeling cove with coral gardens, vibrant tropical fish, and magnificent sea turtles. Its crystal-clear waters, lava formations, and diverse marine life also make Kona a dream destination for divers of all skill levels. Boat and shore diving opportunities are available.

Inside your Kona beach house, experience the ultimate in privacy and comfort across two levels, with travertine floors below and tranquil bedrooms above. Recent upgrades include new smart TVs and rain showers. Our well-appointed kitchen is perfect for culinary adventures with a view, while the open-air design invites gentle breezes to keep you cool. Your tropical escape is complete with high-speed internet, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime for entertainment.

Whether you're savoring a meal with ocean vistas or watching surfers ride the waves from the lanai, every moment here is pure bliss. Book now for an unforgettable experience!

A few friendly reminders for your stay:
● Our Kona beach house is right on the water! Adjusting to the sound of ocean waves might take a night or two; embrace this opportunity to immerse yourself in nature’s melody.
● Most visitors relish the warmth of Kona but it’s worth repeating that there is no central air
conditioning. There are overhead fans throughout the house and the nearly constant trade winds provide a breeze through the louvered windows in every room. The swimming pool is just steps from your lanai, and the master and guest bedrooms upstairs have air conditioners for those who prefer a lower temperature while they sleep.
● As we're nestled in the tropics, some friendly bugs might make their way indoors despite our best efforts. Remember to keep food stored away and take out the trash daily to keep them at bay.
● The guest rooms are made up with king beds, by default. If you would like twin beds in either guest room, please let us know. The downstairs guest room can also be set up with sofas to serve as an additional sitting area.
● Need accommodations for the little ones? We've got you covered with a complimentary pack-and-play, for your convenience.

Inconsiderate maintenance
The home was clean and well appointed. Unfortunately we saw issues with the maintenance staff. They persisted in parking in our assigned shaded spot leaning us to park in the sun everyday. They painted all the parking spots while we were here blocking us out and they parked in our spot even before and after painting. The pool maintenance people had not checked the hot tub water level for at least 2 days and it gurggled and sputtered for those first 2 days. We are leaving today and is is low on water again. park

Loving Kona
House was perfect and the kitchen was stocked the best I have ever seen in a VRBO. The host was kind enough to supply a starter coffee set, trash backs, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent. The only thing I forgot to ask was did the unit have a/c. Many properties in Kona do not. The unit does not have central air conditioning, but the upstairs bedrooms have stand alone units. For me it was not enough in the hot part of the day but my friend staying downstairs was just fine. It all depends on your preference. The pool was amazing and I can't say enough good things about the host. I would definitely return.

Great Property
The house was amazing! Great location, beautiful home, well stocked kitchen, lots of pool and beach supplies, helpful property management staff! The only negative is the lack of central air conditioning. As advertised, the bedrooms had air conditioners. The fans and breeze from the windows were helpful, but we were uncomfortable much of the time.

Delightful !
Beautiful unit, very spacious and comfortable.Quiet and good separation between bedrooms which was great with small kids. Kitchen was so well appointed; fridge was huge, and it was so pleasant to be in the kitchen looking out at the waves crashing on the rocks just outside. The beach closet was well stocked with snorkel sets, boogie boards, noodles, etc. Our kids were so happy ! Beautiful views from the lanai- perfect for relaxed evenings. Highly recommend this beautiful spot !

Beautiful but hot
The views from the unit were beautiful, some of us woke up early and enjoyed the morning crashing waves. The sunsets were breathtaking and it was in close driving range from downtown Kona. The description says AC, however that is only true in 2 of the rooms, the rest of the house is very warm throughout the day, even with the ventilated window strategy. Beaches were in walking distance, not on the property, but the pool was nice and clean. No shoes were allowed in the house, that was a surprise for us, and we did encounter some bugs, including cockroaches. Overall it was a wonderful trip, a great location for our family, and will provide lasting positive memories for all of us.

Great rental!
The house is fantastic and exactly as described. The lanai overlooks the pool and the ocean and a great location for a home base. The kitchen is so well stocked with everything you need- even a blender to make a smoothie. We appreciated the cooler and ice bags so we could pack a picnic for Volcanoes National Park. There are 2 bedrooms on the 2nd floor each with a bathroom. The one with the king bed has a balcony that also overlooks the pool and ocean. When we were there, the weather was hot, but there was a portable AC in each of the upstairs bedrooms so that was helpful. Our kids stayed in the room downstairs and it was made with 2 twin beds. It is really part of the family room - though there are doors that can be pulled to separate it- but no one can be in the living room without keeping those in that space awake. No AC in that area, but the ceiling fan kept it OK. I would stay here again and recommend it!

This is a really special complex of 12 or so units, beautifully sited for privacy and views. Our unit was beautiful, well equipped and located. The sliding doors and wooden staircase are fantastic. There is some structural work on the deck/lanai that should be done in the near future.

Sunsets and Waves
We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. The lanai, the upstairs patio and the tranquility of the oceans’ lullaby ever night as well as the nightly sunsets in the volcanic rock tide pools beachside were highlights. However it was a condo complex so neighbors were close. I would not return in summer months as there was no a/c in communal areas of our unit (I don’t like it too warm).

Stunning
We were a group of 6 adults that enjoyed this beautiful property for 2 weeks.You cannot beat the view and location of this house.We always felt safe and the area was very quiet.We often had the pool to ourselves, but was never over crowded even when other residents were around. We saw many whales and dolphins right from our lanai and the pool area.The kitchen is very well stocked and clearly labeled where everything is located. There was enough toiletries, dish soap, laundry detergent etc for our 2 week stay. There are coolers, beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, snorkeling gear etc. available. A lot of this equipment is in a locked area in the parking lot, which we didn’t realize for a few days after we arrived. Make sure you read the binder when you first arrive! There are only a couple of things worth mentioning.The main floor bedroom is a bit crowded for 2 adults with not much closet space or room to set luggage. A mirror would be a nice addition to this bedroom. We used the lower lanai the most out of any other area of the house. Unfortunately, the furniture is quite weathered and needs to be refinished or replaced. We found the cushions too large for the chairs and uncomfortable to sit on. A ceiling fan would be nice for air movement. These are all 1st world problems! Overall, this is a beautiful property and we would book again in a heartbeat!

Fabulous view; privacy, and great location!
We loved this house. All 10 units are separate and are located on a point in a quiet area of Kona, about a mile from a wonderful snorkel/surf beach and with its own cove for snorkeling. The unit has tall ceilings and spacious rooms, adding to an overall sense of roominess and space. We had our 2 adult kids with us and everyone had a great time enjoying the sunsets and pool hot tub which were never busy. We felt very lucky to have found Dorene's incredibly beautiful home, with its comfortable furnishings and well equipped kitchen -- has everything you need. Photos are, if anything, not quite able to capture the stunning views from most rooms in the house. All communications were answered very quickly and kindly. Thanks to Dorene for a wonderful week in Kona. We will surely be back!
