Little piece of paradise!

Jim and Terry were fantastic hosts and their property was a little slice of paradise tucked away from the super touristy areas. If I ever came back to Big Island, I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

True Hawaiian Experience

We enjoyed this nice, out of the way place to relax away from all the tourist hustle - loved the outdoor shower and BBQ along with electric skillet for cooking - perfect for 2 people and Jim, our host, was super nice and helpful about where to go and what to see on the island!

Our stay

The property was very clean and tidy. Only downside was acually finding the driveway. The owners description was correct but the house number wasnt clear on the main road/the shared driveway intersection.

February 2024 stay

Overall an enjoyable stay. Made good use of the orchard out back and really liked this part of South Kona. I would get a car with a little more clearance next time due to the steep driveway; we scraped the bottom of the Nissan sedan a couple of times at the top, but no damage. The hosts were pleasant to deal with. I have already recommended this listing to friends.

Great place to stay

Very well appointed space- very clean, well decorated, and very comfortable. The hosts provided many amenities (such as a cooler, chairs, and snorkel equipment to facilitate adventures). Beautiful view.

About the host

Hosted by Jim Martin

We had been coming to South Kona for 15 years when we acquired the property early in 2013. We have been residents for three years, now.
Jim is a retired theatre artist/social worker/educator/student, and Terry owns his own business in international shipping. Jim stays more or less permanently in South Kona, while Terry is still working. He comes and goes regularly.
We have a 6-year old dog, Kona. She came over from LA over two years ago, and she is now a local girl.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with South Kona and the expansive views of the coast and the sea - as well as the myriad of activities the area presents. We bought a lot very close to the house and cottage and are considering expanding the orchard. We are not only the happy owners of a beautiful Hawaiian home, but we are mango farmers, tending a 30-tree mango orchard on our property.

What makes this property unique

We are in an ideal location for R&R after a day of Big Island activities - whatever your pleasure, be it snorkeling or diving in Kealakekua or Honaunau Bay, cycling, hiking, sight-seeing, coffee tasting or just experiencing Aloha! The area is very quiet and we have lovely neighbors. We are two drives down from Napo'opo'o Road so road noise is non-existent. We are surrounded by birds and lush vegetation. Kona polices the property, and keeps the wild chickens and turkeys away - usually. They can be brazen.
