If you need a place to recharge and renew on the Big Island, give this place consideration. The absolute best stocked VRBO kitchen we’ve ever experienced. Comfy lanai, amazing views, and quiet location keeps drawing us back to the area. Thanks for the fabulous weekend.

Aloha Kortney! Mahalo for staying with us. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. The home is in the Captain Cook area (like county) and in the village area of Miloli'i. A very special exclusive place in South Kona. Looking forward to your next visit!

The pictures of the house are accurate but it’s the views while enjoying the front porch that are so special. The cool breeze in a hot day keeps the temperature comfortable. The entire house is very high end and well stocked for comfort and convenience. We recommend this house for your Hawaii vacation

Peaceful Haven

We greatly enjoyed our three week stay in Aloha Awaits at the Southern Belle of Miloli'i. From the extremely well equipped kitchen to the thrilling views from the porch of daily whale sightings, it was a blissfully, relaxing and beautiful place. Our host was helpful and responded quickly to any concerns or questions. We would love to return!

Amazing house and view in Milolii!

The house is very nice. The lanai was our favorite spot to relax. Beautiful view of the ocean and there was always a nice breeze. All of the furniture is very comfortable and the kitchen and bathrooms are fully stocked. Check in and check out was very easy. I would definitely recommend the house and would stay again.

Great stay!

Very well equipped house. Given the house is a bit out of the way from restaurants, we were so happy that the house was well outfitted for cooking.The beach towels and equipment were great to borrow as well! Make sure you rent a vehicle that can handle inclines - a 4x4 would be best! We would love to stay at this property again!

Relaxation by the Sea

We absolutely loved our stay in this property. We wanted some place off the beaten path and we found exactly what we needed! This house is the best stocked places we have ever stayed in through many trips. Everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed cooking in the spacious kitchen and lounging on the deck. The view, birds, and geckos kept us thoroughly entertained for hours. Very relaxing stay and the perfect layout.

Beautiful home

The house and property were beautiful and had everything you could need with lots of nice touches including toiletries and cooking supplies. We had 2 couples in our group and the home is laid out perfectly for that with 2 identical rooms with king beds and ensuites. The location is about a half hour drive from captain cook with a windy road leading down from the highway - A bit of a drive to amenities, but perfect for those looking to stay in a quieter area and relax. Enjoyed our stay thoroughly and would definitely recommend.

Amazing house!

This house is amazing. The most well stocked house I've stayed in. The house is large and spacious with an amazing view from the lanai. It's worth the crazy drive down. If you don't want to be right in kona, this is a great place away from it all. You are about 1 hour from Kona and 2 hours from Hilo.

Miloli'i

The two bedrooms are spacious and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware and utensils. The lanai was a great place to take meals, especially breakfast. The drive down to the house takes about 15 minutes to go 3.5 miles with 30 switchbacks, so take your time. If you're looking for a place to get away from things, this is the house foryou.

Relaxing Time

A very relaxing time in a beautiful home! The deck was such a lovely, Hawaiian environment!! We loved walking the neighborhood and talking to neighbors! The road in and out is a little exciting but it did not deter us from exploring many things in the area! Some on the list given to us and some we found on our own! Very fun! Thank you for a great, non “touristy” experience!!!

Absolutely stunning

This house is simply amazing. The location may be out of the way for some but that’s what makes it special. It’s off the beaten path, especially with the drive up & down! I cannot say enough about the views, from every window. The house itself was spectacular. I have never stayed in one with a more well stocked kitchen in the way of appliances, pans, and knives that actually had an edge to them! With comfy beds, a roomy walk-in shower, and plenty of seating on the lanai, this is truly a home to enjoy. And don’t worry about the coin operated washer/dryer, you coins are provided!

Beautiful home, just as described.

Modern renovated home with oceanview. Comfortably furnished, great lanai for lazy days watching whales, napping, chatting , reading, eating. Very responsive, friendly owner. Comprehensive info manual was helpful for getting settled in including good suggestions for visiting area sites of interest. Digital key pad entry a bit tricky, required a few tries. Every amenity imaginable, well-stocked kitchen, modern appliances, pots and pans. Dramatic descent to home from curvy Hy.11 & Miloli'i Drive revealed a volcanic rock environment with stunning views. Would book again.

Super relaxing trip

YES! Such an amazing house with lovely views! Great views of the ocean and at night you can count the stars, saw several shooting stars and one satellite! Every day I made sure to go snorkeling which is a 5 minute walk away.... Then I would shower, change clothes and go on adventures around the island and then come back go snorkeling again and eat dinner on the balcony watching the sunset...... On one day I had to work remote and when I turned the camera on everybody in the meeting were amazed by the views.... Can't say enough good things about the house Mike

Clean, well stocked home with ocean views

There is plenty of room in this home. It is probably the best stocked (kitchen spices, cooking needs, medicine cabinet, beach items) VRBO that we have ever booked.It was very clean with large bedrooms and bathrooms. We slept well in the North bedroom; the bed was excellent, nice and firm. We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the lanai. Every day we would walk around the neighborhood; there are hills and level areas and little traffic. Don't plan on getting into the ocean here as it is very rough. Although we enjoyed staying here, we drove out almost everyday to go to the beach or town. This place would be the perfect spot for someone who wants to buy some groceries and escape from the world for awhile.
