About this property

Kona Garden Studio Ohana, private sunset lanai & seasonal fruit from the garden!

Take a break and unwind at this peaceful oasis. Enjoy beautiful views of the Kona coast from your private lanai, with plenty of fruits and herbs in the garden for your enjoyment. Depending on the season enjoy fresh papaya, mango, citrus, pineapples, figs, ulu, and bananas as well as an abundance of fresh herbs! The private entrance to the ohana may be accessed directly from the carport or walk through the red gate to your garden paradise. Truly beautiful space located in the downstairs of a two story home. Your ohana space is all your own.

Located on the island's west side at a cool 1500 foot elevation, this small studio ohana is best suited for a single person or couple. There is NO Air Conditioning in the unit, but between the ceiling fans and high elevation it stays very comfortable throughout the year.

Situated 10 minutes up the hill from the Kona airport, as well as some of the Big Island's best surfing, diving and beaches. Very conveniently located close to Kona shopping and dining as well.

This lovely ohana space has a sunset-facing sliding glass door opening to a private lanai where you can sit and enjoy the birds in the garden and year-round tropical climate. Keep in mind that with any place you stay in Kona, if you are at LESS than 1000 ft, it’s hot and humid. We are at 1500 ft - just perfect. Relax to the sound of coqui frogs in the evening.

The unit comes with a fully equipped kitchenette (no oven), there is a hot plate, toaster oven and outdoor BBQ grill. Electric kettle, blender, pots, pans, cutting boards, kitchen knives, mixing bowls with lids, colander, steamer, citrus juicer, cheese grater, measuring cups, dishes and utensils all on hand.

Boogie boards, beach chairs, beach umbrella and snorkel gear is available for your use, located on the lanai. Beach towels are available inside of the unit as well.

Things to Note:
*This unit does NOT have air conditioning.
*We kindly ask that you do not eat/drink in the bed.
*If items are damaged or missing, we request that you pay to repair or replace.
*Sand is best enjoyed at the beach! Additional cleaning fee will be charged if excessive sand is left inside the unit.

Fantastic studio in Kona!

This studio has it all! The hosts were extremely kind and helpful. The place was very clean, the location was great, and to top it off we were able to get fresh papaya and lime from the property. 5 stars from us!

Peaceful, Cozy & Perfect – A Must-Stay in Kona!

Our stay at The Kona Garden Studio Ohana was nothing short of delightful! This charming and cozy space made our visit to the island of Hawaii truly special. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The apartment was impeccably clean, thoughtfully stocked, and equipped with everything we needed for our weeklong stay. There was ample closet space and convenient under-bed storage, keeping all of our belongings organized.The evenings cooled down beautifully, and with the ceiling fans, the temperature was absolutely perfect—especially important for my husband, who doesn’t do well with heat at night. And the bed? Pure bliss! Both of us slept soundly every night. Sitting outside on the lanai, listening to the birds and frogs, was a peaceful way to unwind.What truly set this stay apart, though, were our hosts, Erin and Elias. If we could give them and their cozy apartment 10 out of 5 stars, we would! They welcomed us warmly and even shared fresh fruit from their backyard—a wonderful touch. Their kindness and hospitality made us feel like more than just guests. They were always quick to greet us with a friendly wave and offered fantastic tips on where to go and what to see.Their apartment was exactly as described, and the pictures were spot on. We absolutely loved our stay, and if we’re lucky enough to return to the Big Island, this will be our go-to place once again!

We love the mountains and ocean, hiking, freediving, scuba diving and surfing are some of our favorite hobbies. Please feel free to reach out for any recommendations while on island.
