Amazing and roomy, had absolutely everything we needed as a family of 5. Priceless views, and the sunsets were amazing! Highly recommended, and we will return!!!

Thank you! A home with room to spread out and everything a family of five needs makes the whole trip effortless, and it sounds like those sunset views were the daily highlight. Knowing you're already planning a return is the best compliment we could ask for. We'd be happy to host you again with Gather whenever that next trip comes together.

Traveled as a family of four with two teens. Great location, even better home. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. For those with children, note that there are separate entrances for two of the bedrooms. Our kids are older so this was fine but would have been an issue when they were younger.

Thank you for the great review! It's wonderful to know the home won you over even beyond the location, and that "would stay again in a heartbeat" is about the best thing a host can hear. It sounds like the layout suited your family of four well, teens and all. Thanks too for the thoughtful note for families traveling with younger children, that kind of insight genuinely helps future guests picture their stay. We'd love to welcome you back with Gather whenever the next trip calls.

Stunning views and pool was a plus. The inside setup was different with two bedrooms separate from the main living area which gave some privacy to other older guests but would not recommend for younger children. House was clean, the outside deck and furniture could use some updating and more seating especially around the table. Property is hard to find especially at night.

Thank you for the review! It's wonderful to know the views made such an impression and that the pool was a welcome bonus. The layout, with two bedrooms set apart from the main living space, really does lend some nice privacy, and it's helpful of you to note how that suits different groups. Appreciate your thoughts on the outdoor space and arriving after dark as well; that kind of feedback helps us keep improving the experience. We'd love to welcome you back with Gather whenever the next trip calls.

A nice, relaxing week away...

We really enjoyed our stay for the week. Property was located close to town and yet felt secluded and open to the sights and sounds of ocean. It also served as a good home base as we explored the island. Early morning coffee on the deck overlooking the ocean and a glass of wine with the beautiful sunsets made the trip extra special.

Really On The Water's Edge

Pounding surf was loud but we found it enjoyable as the waves broke on the rocks.

Overall this was a wonderful house..awesome views, great location, nice pool. Main bedroom is large with a comfy king size bed with a great view of the ocean; we could hear the waves splashing onto the rocks at night. No true beach to speak of but that was fine as we spent a lot of time in the pool. The driveway is a bit of a challenge to get in and out of especially with larger vehicle but we were able to figure it out. :-)I didn't give this a 5 star as there were quite a few minor issues that come with an older home but they didn't impact our stay. The solar lights around the pool and deck didn't work, the shower pan in the second bedroom didn't drain well and almost overflowed, there was a piece of metal edging sticking out from under the front door that I kept tripping over, the toilet paper roll holder in the main bath was broken, the blender in the kitchen didn't work and there were no towel holders in either bathroom.A couple of suggestions: In your welcome guide include the location of beach chairs (they are in a closet in the Ohana); we didn't find them until the last day. Also it would be good to include maps and places of interest/restaurants, etc.Overall, it was a great stay and highly recommend this house!

Thank you! It's wonderful to hear the views, location, and pool made such an impression, and that the main bedroom, with the ocean in view and the waves close enough to hear at night, was such a highlight. Falling asleep to that sound is hard to beat. Thank you as well for the thoughtful notes; we've shared them with our team to review so everything is just right for future guests. Whenever the ocean calls you back, we'd be glad to host you again with Gather.

If you like surf sounds!

House was very quiet with a quiet location. If you've ever stayed elsewhere on Ali'i Drive, you know it can be noisy. House was very clean. Check-in and out was easy. Location was good with easy access to major roads. House was very stuffy when checking in, but the ocean breeze and AC units made quick work. Had all the appliances, kitchen tools and equipment that you would need. We would stay there again.

Idyllic Setting and Beautiful Home

While tough to find on the street (address and mailbox are obscured by neighbor's mailbox) the property is gorgeous and well-appointed. I had to solicit the door code rather than receive it just before our stay, but property management came through. It's a wonderful home and we found ourselves exploring less and hanging out more at the place.

Kona property

This is a great place. Unfortunately, with only food debris left in the kitchen trash can, there was an infestation of ants. Nothing was left on the counters and no cooking was done during our stay. The ants were in the place when we first arrived. We did not know they were there until we climbed back in our car and found the ants were all over us. Good Luck.

incredible ocean side home

this home is incredible. beautiful one of a kind setting right on the shore with a large deck overlooking the ocean. you can relax all day listening to the waves crash against the lava rocks. the view is amazing. sunsets are unobstructed and magnificent. there is a private use plunge pool right against the retaining wall and you can enjoy the sunsets while sipping some wine or a frozen cocktail wading in the pool. the house has everything you need and is well maintained and immaculate. there are two bedrooms downstairs with private keyed entrances and en suite baths so it’s great for couples sharing the property or teens that want to have their own space. the place is kinda hard to find the first time, but once you know your way the location is excellent. a short walk into the little town with multiple casual and tasty open air restaurants. property management was responsive and very friendly. highly recommend this property for a super stay in kona!

Almost Great

This is our third time at this home - For us the location is A+ - In the listing they highlight "Jacuzzi Tub" while there is a Jacuzzi Tub there it does not work, It did not work in June 2022 either. The Pool was very cloudy, prop mrg said it was safe to go in, but we did not use it this time as there was no reason the water should not have been crystal clear. Also there is some mold in the shower in the master bath. These items will not deter us from re-booking, but since the cost almost doubled from 2022, the attention to details should not be overlooked. Again the location is A+ and the views are incredible
