About this property

Kona Hawaii's Most Unique Ocean-View Vacation Home...Sweeping Ocean Views

Welcome to Villa LongBoard – Kona, Hawaii’s most unique and unforgettable vacation rental experience!

Perched hillside on the gentle slopes of Mt. Hualalai, Villa LongBoard offers breathtaking panoramic ocean views, serene tropical breezes, and an atmosphere unlike any other. This one-of-a-kind retreat is a creative blend of upscale surf culture and Indowaiian-inspired design, making it a true standout on the Big Island.

Where Surf Style Meets Island Elegance...
Villa LongBoard is the perfect balance of new and classic, styled as an upscale surf & sand villa with décor that fuses Hawaiian soul with Indonesian craftsmanship. Almost every piece of furniture is hand-made—either locally or in Indonesia from reclaimed materials—adding rich textures and meaningful character to every room.

Outside, the property is thoughtfully landscaped with native plants and tropical greenery. You'll enjoy a refreshing outdoor shower, a fully-equipped grill station, outdoor dining areas, and some cool, unexpected features we won’t spoil here.

Inside the Villa...
Step into an expansive, open-concept living space that invites relaxation, creativity, and connection. Highlights include:

-One-of-a-kind Teakwood Bar – Custom-built and perfect for cocktails, conversation, or morning coffee
-Screening Room – A cozy media area featuring a 65” Ultra HD curved cinema screen and deep-cushioned theater sofa
-Hawaiian-Style Billiards Table – Regulation size and hand-carved from tropical hardwood
-Gourmet Kitchen & Island Cooktop – Fully stocked with modern appliances, gadgets, and cookware for food lovers
-Master Suite – A massive, carpeted bedroom with his & her walk-in closets, spa-like bathroom with travertine floors, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and ceiling fan for added comfort
-A Million-Dollar View… and a Million Reasons to Stay
From the villa’s elevated location—approximately 600 feet above sea level—you’ll soak in dramatic views of the Kona Coastline and endless Pacific Ocean sunsets. By design, the home embraces “Island Style” living, and as such, does not have air conditioning. At this elevation, you'll find the trade winds and cooler mountain air keep the home comfortably temperate most of the year. In fact, during winter, you might even need a sweater in the evening!

-A Favorite Among Guests and Creatives
Villa LongBoard was recently ranked in the Top 5% of all Airbnbs worldwide for guest satisfaction and experience—proof that travelers truly love this space.

Are you a creative? A writer? A filmmaker? This space has been featured in multiple photo, film, and television productions. With unique indoor and outdoor shooting locations, we welcome production professionals and can provide a range of support services upon request. Reach out to discuss your project!

Kona’s Hawaii Unique Ocean View

It was a lovely, clean place and Barry was friendly and helpful. The stairs were a bit much for our elderly mother but we enjoyed it very much! An actual dining table was the only thing I would suggest adding to the furniture. Overall an excellent place!

Clean, spacious, convenient location

We enjoyed our stay. Quiet neighborhood, easy to cook simple meals in the kitchen, laundry available. We didn’t use the outdoor equipment, but hosts had lots available. The space was clean and easy to get to stores, town area and highway to travel the coast. No A/c but lots of ocean breezes. Just to note that two bedrooms are on one side and share a bathroom and the third bathroom is on the other side with bathroom. For two couples it worked well. Thanks for the stay.

Great, fun space in quiet neighborhood

Overall good. There is a LOT to like about this place. Unlike in most places I have rented in the past, the owners leave a lot of the items donated by past guests in case they are useful to subsequent guests. That is cool. There is abundant sun screen, bug spray, sunglasses, tons of stuff of that nature that you will not have to buy if you forget to bring it from home. The house is large and airy. And they have a pool table! But do not be fooled by appearances, especially where the pool table is concerned: this is not a party house. The quiet rules are strictly enforced and that is cool. We had not looked at the house rules again since booking so forgot that the place had to be quiet by 11 pm on a Saturday night. This was unfortunate for us since we had returned from a wedding and wanted to visit more with friends, but understandable from the owner's perspective. I am not super keen on how things were communicated (owner sat outside on his front porch and turned visiting friends away rather than coming upstairs to discuss with us personally), but I suspect the owner wasn't too pleased with us having violated his rules, either. After I went downstairs to speak to him, I heard for myself that all the noise upstairs can be clearly heard outside and the striking pool balls are loud. In this quiet place, I can understand why the owner needs to keep these rules. By 11:30 everything in this quiet neighborhood was back to being...quiet. Bummer because we were having such fun at the pool table. Check in was a bit unfortunate as well since we didn't get instructions on how to enter the property until I called VRBO for help the morning we arrived. I had not heard back from the owner although I had messaged him a day or two before arriving on Big Island. In my experience, access info is provided 24-48 hours in advance. I was getting worried that something had gone wrong. Everything worked out fine, we appreciated the help from VRBO, and our stay was most enjoyable. Apologies to the owner for our lapse in following the quiet rules.

Best Views

A beautiful house with a great view of the ocean and spectacular sunsets. Close to shops and restaurants, you can’t beat the location. The house is equipped with everything you need and the beds were comfortable. Owners are super nice, would highly recommend this rental.
