An exceptionally quiet and peaceful place to stay away.

If you're looking for a quiet place to stay outside of all the touristy "hubbub" then this is definitely the place to stay. Very quiet neighborhood with friendly next door neighbors. It is a bit of a drive from the main shopping centers so our first stop was COSTCO to load up on groceries at the best price. We spent most of our time visiting Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and local beaches. We felt this vacation home was perfectly placed with those destinations in mind. The owners have truly gone above and beyond with providing so many extras you would not typically have with other rental properties. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked with every cooking appliance you can think of which our family appreciated. There were also boogie boards, various sizes of snorkel gear and fold up lawn chairs that have shoulder straps...perfect for carrying down to the beaches. We enjoyed the amazing ocean views every morning drinking our coffee and found ourselves hurrying back home every evening to catch the sunsets. My only caution is if you are renting a car....don't try parking at the top of the driveway or you will likely drag bottom like we did. Instead park at the bottom by the water tank. There is plenty of room there and it is just a few steps to the front door. If you rent a Jeep then go ahead and park at the top. Our thanks to the owners of this cute little home for sharing it with our family!

Definitely “A Little Peace of Heaven”!

Our stay was magical! The lanai overlooking the beautiful property and ocean view was spectacular. Snorkeling at the neighborhood black sand beach was not very crowded and so peaceful. We were 45 minutes from Kailua-Kona but totally worth the scenic drive. We’ve already recommended this property to friends who asked for booking details!

Little bit of heaven

This was one of the cutest, most comfortable homes we have ever rented. It was thoughtfully stocked with every thing you could possibly need. The Lanai has the most beautiful view. We have been coming to Kona Paradise for about 15 years and this was one of our most enjoyable stays.

So surreal

The pictures don’t do the house justice! It’s got a killer view and you get used to the kind of scary hill coming down. Not scary after the first day.. it has everything you need and then some! Perfect stamp in our honeymoon ❤️

Truly Paradise

Tropical paradise with an ocean view! We love this home, the deck with view of the ocean was amazing. The inside of the house was adorable and comfortable and there were personal touches that made it feel like someone really thought about what guest would need. The driveway is very steep and narrow, but you can always park at the bottom and walk up. The plants and palms surrounding the home are gorgeous. The walk down to the ocean (another very steep hill) was intoxicating with the scent of plumeria. The black pebble beach is really nice for swimming if the surf is small. I miss the chirping of the tree frogs at night!

About the host

Hosted by Terri Lin

I'm a teacher at a community college and my husband Bobby just retired from Duke Energy. We were married in Hawaii in 1982 and never got over the love of each other and of Hawaii.

Why they chose this property

We were looking for a place in Hawaii and when we walked into this house it was love at first sight!! Perfect location because it was located in the middle of everything we would want to do on the Big Island. It had been professionally decorated by an Interior decorator and it felt like ole school Hawaii. Very authentic Hawaiian decor and when we walked out onto the Lanai and saw that view it took our breath away. Every time we walk out on that lanai we feel a sense of peace that we can't seem to find anywhere else, thus the name A little Peace of Heaven.

What makes this property unique

Being in what I call the middle of the island makes it pretty easy to drive to wherever you want to visit on the island and get back home in the same day. Being 800' above sea level you get the sweet ocean breezes so no need for air conditioning. And you have that birds eye view that makes for the most incredible sunset imagery which are forever memorable.
