Kona vacation home

We’re a family of five and we found lots to enjoy at the house and Kona area. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked and there is a lot of seating options inside and out. The Lanai is huge and has very beautiful views of the coastline and downtown Kona. The pool is very private and a good size for everyone to enjoy. The location is a 10 minute drive to the main tourist centre of Kona or to Keahou bay, where many tours operate from, including the Manta night snorkel.We would stay here again.

Great Home

Loved the view, location and beauty of the house. Perfect areas to enjoy outside and the pool. Being met at the property was nice as well. Not ideal for older family members as the stairs are a lot- as well as the driveway. However perfect for our family needs.

SUNSETS!!!!

Sunsets, sunsets, sunsets!!!! Thar Ono Hale house was perfect for our family stay. We had 3 generations of family members on this trip and the house accommodated everyone's needs. The kiddos loved the pool and the large lani was perfect to watch over them. The location of the house is within a very short drive to shopping, beaches and groceries. The weather was perfect with the slight breeze moving throughout the house. I was fortunate enough to live on the big island years ago and have always loved the Kona side. The views this house provides makes me wanna move back. Mahalo Ono Hale house. The Ballard family.

Great pool, deck and views. Our family had a great time and very comfortable in the house. The landscaping kept the pool private. We were able to relax all week and really close to many things to do in koba.

We loved the lanai and spent our mornings and evenings., listening to birds. It was great to have the beach towels and chairs to use. For our snorkeling days. We enjoyed coming back and taking a dip in the pool. Fully stocked kitchen, comfortable beds. Wonderful place for our family. (Not a negative for us, but there are lots of stairs and this could be a problem for someone). We would stay again!

Gorgeous view

We had a great stay at the Ono hale! The kids loved the pool & us parents loved cruising on the lanai. The lanai has a gorgeous view of the sunset & over looks the pool if you don’t wanna walk down to it, you can still see everyone having a blast. The house is spacious & lots of room to play cards, play games & eat all together. The house was very clean, clean linens not musty & has a washer & a dryer. Blake Kessner was easy to contact when we had any questions. We had a great stay!

Great Stay

The property was located in a very convenient and central location. It was close to the airport which was great! The pool was our favourite part - it was clean and had lots of pool accessories and chairs around. Kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pans. There is no a/c which we didn't realize until arrival, however I think this is a common theme in the area. There were fans provided in the residence. Overall, it was a great place to stay for our short vacation in the Big Island as we were able to drive to all of our destinations in relatively short periods of time.

Large home good for families

We enjoyed our stay very much. There were several small things in need of repair/attention and I’ll send a list to realtor. One safety concern was called in and there was no response. It was Christmas holiday so I’ll give a break for that reason. Otherwise I recommend.

Ono Hale - Fantastic Trip

We stayed at Ono Hale for 3 weeks on our recent trip to the Big Island and must say that it was a fantastic trip. We were greeted by a member of the Property Management group who gave us quick rundown(no more than 10 min) it was great. Lots of items to use at the beach and must say the we have not stayed at a rental that had so many different appliances to use. You certainly do not want for anything to prepare a dinner. The sunset views from the Lanai are fantastic. We would actually schedule our days to sit and watch them. We quite enjoyed the pool area and spent time in the pool as well. It is refreshing on a hot day to cool off. The house itself is very spacious and very relaxing. We had read comments on the stairs, however no one in our group had an issue and two actually are awaiting knee surgery. The Property Management group was also incredible. On our second last day the coffee machine quit working and within an hour there was a new one dropped off even though we had said not to worry about bringing a new one. Great service!! We would definitely stay at Ono Hale again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, our experience was a very good one. Beautiful grounds and pool. The house was wonderful. However, all of the towels and hand cloths need to be changed to new ones. The house does have a musty smell, especially in the lower level. The mattresses also need to be upgraded as well as bed linens. Televisions and the cable service also need to be updated. An HD tv but no HD service. Lanai is very spacious but there is mold on the support trusses.

Breathtaking view!!!!!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The view is breathtaking! Sunsets are amazing. We loved that all the rooms were very well spread out. It was clean upon arrival. Few things to keep in mind: it’s a three story house-so there is a lot of steps. There is no A/C. But it’s not bad at all we always left the windows open and we got air of cool air coming it at night. Also, the driveway is very steep. We had two convertibles and scratched the bottoms of them first time we pulled up, until later we learned how to angle the car while coming up to avoid scratching. It’s manageable especially that made it up there on such low cars. Just take it slow. Other than that the house was perfect.

Amazing Sunset Views

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is exactly as pictured. Please keep in mind that there are 2 entrances, front entrance requires going up a lot of stairs to get into the main living room, the back entrance requires a car w/ high bottom clearance, to get to the top of the steep driveway. Wasn’t a problem for us at all; we took the SUV to the top parking and parked the convertible downstairs. There is no AC but the house but that was a non issue for us, there’s tons of windows and the breeze coming through kept the house at a perfect temperature. I loved that the house was equipped w/ plenty of beach toys and gear. Comfy beds, lots of linens, toiletry items and even a closet stocked w/ sunscreens, lotions and aloe (that I discovered after the fact) and kitchen was fully stocked (we left it more stocked!) with spices and sauces. Home is located in a great location. This home is definitely a gem for the price! My only disappointment was that the pool is located across the driveway, from of the house; it gets sun but not enough to warm the water enough (we went in February), so the water was too cold to get in.

Big Island fun.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Big island vacation. The location of the house was great, but you need a car. The property is beautiful with amazing sunsets and views for days! The pool is great and pool deck gets a nice amount of sun. The house could use some work. The kitchen is decently equipped but the knives are dull, broken and pretty cheap. The patio screen doors fall off the track a lot and need to be replaced as they are patched together. The ceiling fans all need to be replace as they are loud and don’t move much air anymore. The patio furniture consists of two chairs two side tables and two dining tables. It would be nice to have a place for 4-6 people to sit comfortably and enjoy the great sunset/ views! The carpet in the house has to be replaced as it has lots of stains and is kinda gross. The home had lots of great beach toys and chairs to use. Knutson was easy to work with and I would rent a property form them again, all in all it was a great vacation. I know this review looks bad but it’s not, just need to put a few $$ into the property to make it more in its price point. Enjoy the big island, it was great!

Beautiful, but obvious rental

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is gorgeous. I would have loved to have seen it in its prime. The house is so nice that the minor negatives really show. On stepping through the door, the first thing that I noticed were scratches on the floor. The hardwood floor was magnificent, but the scratches really stood out. Theses scratches have been caused by people moving furniture. My guess is that non-family types have been renting this house, riding it hard and putting it away wet. Similarly, in the kitchen, the white range, refrigerator and sink all have visible scratches. These could easily be touched up with bathtub porcelain repair paint. There were also small paint scratches on walls that could be easily touched up. The toilet seat in the master bedroom was visibly warn and discoloured. Many stains are carpets.It the totality of the circumstatnces, these defects are miniscule. The issue it that the property is so nice that the minor issues do stand out.The house has a great layout. Lots of space both inside and on the lanai. The pool area is great as well. The only negative being that it was unheated. Air temperatures were in the low 80's as was the pool. You had to be hot to go in (January). We could not find any lighting in the pool area. It would have been nice to use at night. I did find at a later time, underwater lights in the pool but no one could tell me how to turn them on. There were some pool and beach toys & chairs. Two masks, both broken.The house is not air conditioned. Generally there is a nice breeze. As long as the house is opened up, it is well ventilated. There was one night that was very still that we wished that there was AC.For such a large property, the propane grill was quite small. It worked, but had the typical hot/cold spots. I wouldn't have put good steaks on it as they would have been difficult to cook.The property was very clean.I would stay here again. There are many small things that don

Beautiful Housee above south Kona-Kaqilua

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed the house and the setting of this vacation rental. The sunsets were spectacular, the house spacious, wonderful lanais, lots of good beach and pool toys, and the private pool was great for our grandkids. Be aware that the driveway can be daunting, and longer wheelbase vehicles like minivans are not suited to go to the upper level. The kitchen was well-stocked, although all the knives were pretty dull, it would be good to have at least one sharp knife for cooking. Our big complaint is that the house is advertised as sleeping 8, including two on a sleeper sofa. The sleeper sofa is horrible, really unusable as a bed, and needs to be replaced. And there were eight of us, including two little ones. Fortunately Knutson's managers were great, really considerate and responsive to the situation, and got us foam pads and bedding for the little ones. If you have 8 adults in your party, make sure the sleeper sofa has been replaced!
