Disappointed. We rented this home for four days. Unfortunately, two of those days were affected by a very loud siren or beeping sound that could be heard blasting throughout the neighborhood. We’re not sure what caused it, but listening to a loud beep every few seconds really affects you after a few hours. We booked this property with a few friends, and there were a few surprises we hadn’t expected. The listing shows air conditioning in the photos, but we learned there was an additional charge to use it after our deposit was paid. This was inconvenient since we had already finalized our group budget. They put a pad lock on the electric meter. The only way to stay cool was by keeping the doors and windows open. Most of the bedrooms are upstairs, which made them quite warm, but with the siren noise, we couldn’t comfortably leave the windows open. We reached out to ask if the air conditioning could be turned on, but unfortunately didn’t receive a response.The listing notes that the home sleeps ten, but there are extra fees per person as well.

Wonderful vacation

My three sisters and I spent 8 nights at this wonderful property. The kitchen is well stocked and the house had everything we needed. The backyard is fabulous – very private and beautiful. We enjoyed the large patio and sitting around the pool. There was plenty of lawn furniture and tons of beach gear available to use. The neighborhood is nice and was very quiet. The upstairs did get a bit warm in the late afternoon but cooled off nicely after opening the windows and turning on the ceiling fans. The owner was very responsive to any questions we had. Would highly recommend!

The residence was the perfect size for our family. There were more than enough amenities (televisions, snorkel gear, towels etc...). We visited the entire Island and coming back to the residence was easy because of it's location.

Great family home in Waikoloa Village

Our family shared this rental with another family during a July trip to the Big Island. The space was very spacious, well kept and stocked with all the essentials + extras that made our stay here very carefree. We’d definitely recommend this home if staying on the Kohala coast is in your plans.

Perfect for multiple families with kids!

We really enjoyed our recent stay! We had two families traveling with kids. The back yard and pool were a huge bonus and kept everyone entertained during our "down" days. The house was very clean, comfortable and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We have traveled to the Big Island many times and stayed in various accommodations- this is our new favorite! We look forward to visiting again next year. Thank you!!

Fab family reunion

Andrew's house is great for a relaxing family vacation. We had 4 adults and two teens, and really enjoyed the private backyard, grill and gorgeous swimming pool. A rental car is of course essential -- Waikoloa Village does feel a bit remote. But there is a very convenient grocery store close by, and the teens were huge fans of the shave ice at the resort down the hill. Enjoyed evening cocktails on the lanai and watched the sunset. Highly recommend this rental!

Amazing house, and location

Pictures do not do justice to the house and backyard! House has everything you need, and the privacy of the yard surprised us all. Family of 9, 3 generations in the house and plenty of room. The breezes front and back cooled the house, and we never used any air conditioning. House was immaculate when we entered, and the location was perfect. Pool was well used by all of us, especially the grandchildren. Would stay again.

This house was AMAZING!!! If you are wondering if the pictures are to believed - BELIEVE! This house is the most beautiful home I've ever stayed in. I can't believe what a great deal this rental is. The beach equipment, the pool, the kitchen everything saved us money over renting a hotel. The location was perfect for all the best beaches and hikes. It was plenty of room for the ten of us. Thank you Andy for providing such an awesome home base for our trip. We hope someday to return.

This trip was to celebrate a good friend's 50th bday and visit family on the island - lots of people and logistics - and the house was PERFECT! Very comfortably accommodated a family and friends, clean and had everything we needed. We are also big fans of the relatively central location of Waikiloa Village. Pool was a huge asset in keeping kids happy and occupied while adults sit back and relax. Tons of beach stuff available. Great music and movie collection! Mahalo for wonderful Island hospitality :-)

Why they chose this property

I chose this location because of the neighborhood, the cool evening temperatures, and the close proximity to golf, stores, and the beach. Its an easy drive up to Waimea or down to Kona with all the resorts, shopping and great Kohala restaurants being right along the way.

What makes this property unique

I love the pool and the private back yard. Great for entertaining or to simply relax. The kitchen has been equipped contemporary stainless steel appliances, ample storage, bamboo cabinets and a full compliment of cooking utensils, you won't be disappointed.
