Beautiful Traditional Hawiian Home
This is a beautiful traditional Hawaiian home with airflow throughout but not AC. This was not an issue until bedtime when the bedrooms were 80 degrees. The bedroom fans moved air but there was nothing we could do about the heat. Note to parents: There are no security gates or locks for the pool which is in the front of the house. The pool itself is beautiful and we used it a lot but had to station someone near the front of the house to watch access. It would be great to have child locks on the front two doors. The biggest challenge with rental is the required paperwork and agreements by the property owner. A week out before you arrive you are required to provide a lot of personal information. The owner states that this is for the Patriot Act but I find nothing in the Act that requires this. If it did, VRBO would take care of this. The owner got nasty and rude and threaten to cancel our reservation when in fact the communication issue was not on our end. The onsite person was amazing and very nice and communicative. We rate the property a 4 but the process a 2. If you can deal with the last minute hassle and providing personal information, we recommend the property.

Relaxing holidays in Falling Waters
This place was wonderful. We (2 families, each 2 adults and 2 kids) had a great and relaxing time. The layout of the house was a perfect fit for our families with more than enough sleeping options for all of us and bathroom access from each bedroom. The place was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was fully equipped and we also enjoyed the BBQ area outside. The neighbourhood is quiet an peaceful. It’s an easy walk to Magic Sand beach. We all loved the magnificent pool and also the hot tub. Plenty of towels were stocked and snorkelling equipment and buggy boards were provided to use. There is no air conditioning in the house what didn’t bother us. Overall, we definitely enjoyed our stay and we’d come back someday.

We found the accomodations terrific, the children came downstairs every morning in their bathing suits looking for someone to watch them in the pool, and they finished every evening there too.

Love and unlove
Property is great: close to beach, great views of the sunset, comfortable. I found the paper work onerous (I don't think the Patriot Act requires the names, ages, emails and addresses of all guests). At first I couldn't open the forms to fill out and the owner claimed that everyone else could do it but then provided a Word version that I could use. Owners send so many instructions that it's hard to sort out the most important ones so we made some mistakes. We loved the property but found the paperwork.frustrating and unloved.

Paradise in Kona
I can’t say enough about our magical week at falling waters. This rental has EVERYTHING. We strictly rent houses when we travel, so I’m very used to place missing at least a few things. But falling waters had it all! Even good knives!! (A personal win🤣). Diane was accommodating, helpful, and always available. Coffee by the pool in the morning, dinner on the back lani, cocktails while watching the sun set in the evening, it was all perfection. The location can’t be beat, with a quick walk, down an adorably decorated trail to magic sands beach. A shopping center with everything you could need just a 5 min drive away. The ocean an sunset views. But the absolute best part is the care and detail that went into every nook and cranny of this home. We discovered new surprises every day! Don’t pass up this gem!!!

Hawaii Magic
This house quickly became our home over our two week visit. The property provided enough group and private space for all 10 of us to be comfortable throughout our magical Christmas holiday. 2 lanais, a private garden and hot tub area, a small but delightful swimming pool, beautiful Hawaiian art, and perhaps the best equipped kitchen we have enjoyed at a vrbo. Nicely located for local beaches, shopping, restaurants, and exploring the island. Should we return to Hawaii, we will want to stay here.

Great location and lovely place.
Really prime location that is accessible to the ocean and town but a little more "secluded" and not on a busy street. Very clean and well-equipped. The bedroom situation in reality was a bit different from what I imagined based on the listing. I anticipated that the large sweet had a more separated bedroom attached to it but that bedroom was really a converted closet with a door directly in the suite. Not a problem for us but you need to feel comfortable with your roommate! Overall, great place.

It was everything the listing described about the property and more! The home was beautiful and fitted my family easily.

The location was perfect. A 10 minute drive to grocery stores, shopping centres, markets, snorkelling, surfing and Magic sands beach was only a 10 minute walk. When we weren't touring the island or swimming in the ocean we made use of the pool! It was fantastic and we'd rent it again! Loved it!

Pros: nice layout for our family of 8. Nice outdoor spaces. We enjoyed small pool & spa. House was very clean. Felt a like a safe area, we never locked the doors. Could walk to Magic Sands Beach 1/2 mile away. Cons: air conditioning in bedrooms would be nice. We were surprised how hot it was in March.

Not a stand-alone house
The unit is basically a large duplex and you are renting one side of the duplex. There is an attached apartment that the owners or managers stay in that shares walls with the "house" that is being rented. You can see the second unit on the main picture of the rental which is the building to the right of the "house".
