IMPORTANT:

Animals reside on the premises. NOT RECOMMENDED IF YOU DO NOT LIKE ANIMALS AND/OR ARE ALLERGIC TO ANIMALS. The animals will NOT have access to within the unit. Single Macaw is quiet 98 percent of the time - ALWAYS quiet at night 100%. He occasionally squawks for his breakfast approx. btwn 8:00 and 8:30 a.m (he does occasionally talk), or unless an intruder is a threat (my feathered guard dog). Guests are more than welcome to meet and interact/pet with animals when they are out and about on property or even if requested should they be in my side. (However Macaw/bird requires supervision if you are interested in holding or petting. When looking at or watching … no supervision needed). My animals are friendly but dog does alert to strangers/intruders. Cats love car rides so please do not leave door or windows open to vehicles and/or check to make certain they are NOT in the vehicle when locking vehicle up or leaving residence.

Check in time 3:00 PM and check out time NOON. Times can be flexible with ADVANCE reasonable notice to owner. Flight arrival time and departure times are required upon booking so I can be sure unit is disinfected, cleaned and prepped for your arrival and also to be certain there is no conflict with other booked guests.

*****Unit is cleaned and disinfected thoroughly before AND after each guest(s). This unit is used for my own family members and is sanitized and cleaned good enough for them or even for myself to stay in.*****.

Used bath towels are required to be given to me to be washed after 2 to 3 days of use (there are plenty provided in the unit). Due to the humidity of the island I would like to insure minimizing any potential for mold/mildew or any skin diseases (as island Dr recommended to me from his experience). I will gladly wash your beach wear, towels etc for you and dry (I do not fold). Or you are welcome to use washer and dryer on your own but with advance notice.

There are absolutely no security cameras (hidden or otherwise) anywhere within the unit. There ARE security cameras OUTSIDE of the residence (and within the inside of only the interior of MY side of the residence that I live in) FYI

Very comfortable unit conveniently located in Kailua-Kona
This unit was definitely like a home away from home. Bedroom is very spacious with king bed, dresser, closet, and nightstands. Ceiling fan helps circulate air throughout the unit and a portable AC unit is available for the very hot and humidity months. There is a good view of the ocean from the bedroom window. Bathroom is well kept and stocked with TP, soap, shampoo/conditioner, and other supplies (some left by other renters). Cutely decorated throughout. Kitchen is on the lower, entry level. It is small but sufficiently large and equipped (hot plate with pots & pans; microwave; toaster; Keurig; and other small applianances; full size refrigerator/freezer) to make full breakfasts, lunch, and dinner. An easy chair and a small couch w/ fold-out bed are in the kitchen area for seating. A small patio area with outdoor seating is also available with the unit. For those beach / water days, an outdoor shower and sink is available for easy clean up. Location is super convenient. Very close to the airport (driving about 15 min), harbor (about 10 min), downtown Kailua-Kona (5-7 min). Shopping (Safeway, Walmart, and Target) about 5-7 min away (within 1-3 traffic lights) so you can easily run out to pick up your necessities - bonus, Safeway is open 24 h! Costco is also close, about 10 min (between the airport and harbor). Neighborhood is quiet and feels very safe. Drives to Hilo (just under 2 h) and the Volcano Park (about 2 h) are easy from the unit. Host Cynthia (on-site, on her side of the house) is the absolute best. She kept the unit stocked with all amenities, including water. She even gave us some fruit, refreshments, and other eats. Cynthia is a fountain of knowledge on the area and her hints and suggestions for activities were spot on. The manta ray snorkel/dive is definitely a must-do. To keep towels fresh, she asks you for them every 2-3 days and will even wash your laundry with them. I felt like we were staying with a friend and not just renting a unit. Thank you Cynthia for making our stay fabulous. If you're looking for accommodations for 2 (or 3), you need not look further. This is an awesome choice. I'm not sure why there are a few negative reviews - there is nothing negative about this unit or Cynthia. We will certainly stay here again when we return.

About the host

Hosted by Owner/Property Owner

Host profile image
I am retired from working in the public service industry and live on site. I love to fish, snorkel, and play on and in the water. I have also owned my own boats in the past and am hoping to acquire another one as I love boats too. Obviously I have a love of all animals….hence my “zoo” 😏

Why they chose this property

Conveniently located to pretty much most of everything except the Hilo side and even then its easy access to any roads to journey the rest of the island. Perfect elevation and nice views of the water front from not only the property but as you take the road down the hill into town or to wherever your heart wants to journey.

I always disinfect, wash/clean everything (bedding, floors, throw rugs/pillows, handles/switches, countertops, railings, etc.) This unit is used mostly for family and friends hence I’m very particular about how the unit is kept. I do not allow pillows to be stored on the floors for ANY reason and require that bath towels be washed every 2 to 3 days at minimum - I will gladly wash for you (due to humidity on the island). I may not turn down your bed each evening or iron the sheets but you know it’s clean and refreshed prior to your arrival and for your use. This unit is comfortable, cozy, and clean.

What makes this property unique

Nice quiet location if you want to relax and minimize any crowds or noise. Private and comfortable with hopefully the feel of home and Aloha. Turkeys roam the neighborhood freely and are often heard and /or seen walking in the area. Please be careful when driving down to Main highway (Queen Ka’ahumanu) as they often are on shoulders and often cross the streets.
