Holiday rentals with beach access in Hawaii County

Excellent location in Ali’li drive near magicsands beach . 3 minutes to walk to the beach. Everything we needed for our two days over Christmas was there. Rebecca was super helpful with information.

Within this quiet, off-the-beaten-path corner of the the big Island, this was an ideal location: literally across the street from the funky little beach that’s the only one around for miles. Besides Makena Beach, there’s are a couple of state parks that’ll show you dramatically the effects of lava flow, and it’s fascinating. The town of Pāhoa is about 20 min away with a good supermarket and several restaurants; Volcanoes National Park is an hour away (be sure to spend a full day there). And the place itself? Simple, comfortable, clean, easy. (The wide-angle photos make it look huge; really it’s a sensible size.) We loved sitting on our deck enjoying our ocean view. Great place for a romantic getaway that feels almost off the grid.

We really enjoyed our visit. The views were amazing and the location was ideal. Will definitely stay again in the future.

One of the best-supplied kitchens I've used. The bed was comfortable and I always appreciate find king sized bed.

The condo was as advertised-lots of beach things to use (chairs, umbrella, towels, sand toys), great kitchen with plenty of items for food prep, washer and dryer along with laundry pods available. Wi-fi worked very well to hook up multiple devices, and there were 2 televisions available as well. There was a pool, but it was across the street and did not always get full sun due to the surrounding buildings blocking the light. Overall it was a very pleasant stay!

Condo is older and a bit worn but clean. Condo is walking distance to everything, or just a very short drive. Location makes this place a great stay. People in condos are extremely friendly and helpful. The best part of this place was the pool. We didn't swim much but sat and watched sunsets with whales in eve and dolphins in the am. We loved our stay and recommend it anyone visiting Kona.

We had an amazing stay! The apartment was so spacious, tastefully decorated and very clean. We loved watching the horses from the lanai and having Buddy the dog greet us everyday when we arrived back. We felt like we had the best spot on the island to watch the sunset. The sounds of the coqui frogs at sunset was absolutely amazing and so relaxing to fall asleep to. The kitchen was incredibly well equipped for self catering and it was really helpful having some things in the cupboards like spices, oil, syrup, etc. We were so sorry when it was time for us to leave!

Absolutely loved staying at Bailey’s place in Puako. It was so tranquil and gorgeous with the sound of the ocean at night and the amazing birds in the morning. The unit was very comfortable with a well stocked kitchen. We were 3 people - our teenage son slept on the pull out couch in the living room - you do have to walk through the bedroom to access the bathroom. This was fine for us. I loved the screen porch!! Bailey left so much info that helped us and was responsive to any request. We would happily come back here again.

Such a beautiful, relaxing home. Great location! Close to several beaches and restaurants. Can’t wait to come back!

We loved it! The grounds were beautiful and lots of birds to see. We loved the beach nearby (good warning of semi nude haha). The house had everything we could possibly need!

Minh’s place is a treasure! The location looking over the ocean is breathtaking. We had the best sleep in months with the doors open and hearing the waves. Whales swam by a few times and walking to the beach was good exercise. I plan to return.

Very nice home with a beautiful porch overlooking the water. Beds were comfy, kitchen fully stocked. We appreciated our hosts communication. The area is very industrial and noisy with trucks but that was stated in the description. The house itself was very clean but the beautiful decks furniture needed wiping down when we arrived. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed the house and convenient area! Some recommendations for other guests… our boys loved jumping off the tower at Coconut island (literally right down the road). The poke at the Suisan Market was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! And the food, atmosphere and owner of Vibe was top notch for breakfast!

Jason’s home was clean, accommodating and comfortable!! I really appreciated how well stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies and even feminine products the house was. They also have a great selection of kids supplies like a stroller, beach toys, a wagon and even a car seat. Super kid friendly!! I loved waking up and sitting on the lanai every morning watching the birds and butterflies. Super easy and walkable to Magic Sands beach (make sure you take the short cut!) Definitely would stay here again :)

Megan’s house is absolutely breathtaking and has exceeded all expectations. We stay with airbnb a lot and this is one of the few times when the property was better than the pictures! Loved the well equipped kitchen and all of the cool art displayed throughout. The location is safe, peaceful and easy to get to places. Several great beaches within a walk or a very short drive. Our family absolutely loved it, and can’t wait to come back!

Nikki's place was exactly what we hoped for when booking the location for two young families. We spent hours on the beautiful porches, afternoons BBQ'ing on the pool deck and endless games of pickleball, fooseball and ping pong. The walkable proximity to Magics sands as well as the beach shack restaurant and bar and grill were added bonuses. The layout was great to split between two families, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well thoughtout. Would highly recommend!

This place is exactly as pictured, if not better. It was easy to find, there were guests in the lower apartment that were very friendly and quiet, we barely knew they were there. We had a slight issue with the patio doors locking on us and Debbie their local rep came by within minutes to help us! (close them gently). The place was incredibly clean and cozy, the bed is comfortable and the chocolates, coffee and welcome Prosecco were very nice touches. We will miss waking up to the beautiful views and the sounds of the birds chirping. The rooftop deck was perfect for mid-day tanning and night-time star gazing (the stars were insane). 
We did visit the nearby black sand beach, it was pretty but personally a bit too much nudity for us (haha) but if that’s your jam then it's worth checking out. The neighbourhood is very peaceful and nice to walk around in. In the future, adding a small cool-off pool would be amazing to beat the heat. We would love to come back! Thanks Jenn and Kristian.

...to plagiarize a comment I saw stated in another review: stop looking and book this place! This is the one! A+++ If you have found this option based on the criteria you think you need, there is likely no better place. The location is ideal. The view of the ocean & pool is incredible--the mesmerizing surf and scenery cannot be matched. A special note: This home provides three of the most comfortable beds that might exist within the Hawaiian Islands. Also--the front foyer is chock full of everything you need for beach fun... EVERYTHING...which was so helpful and reduced expense significantly. The efforts made by the host are very notable and appreciated. (I dig air conditioning--this place has it and it works wonderfully.) We hope to return to the Big Island and if we do this will be the first place we consider to stay again. This condo is close enough to anything and far enough away from everything--it will suit anyone...and really is a perfect vacation home. Mahalo!🤙😎

Terry, we very much enjoyed our stay! Thank you! The unit was very comfortable, well equipped, clean, and in a convenient location. We appreciate your responsiveness and availability during our stay. The restaurant recommendations were definitely helpful. We loved sitting out on the shoreline watching the locals surf and the sunset.

Marc’s place was easy to find and easy to get inside. The place was clean and the bed in the bedroom was very comfortable with enough pillows for the 3 of us. The towels in the bathroom were newish and plush, and the beach towels were great. Plenty of beach gear for a family including a cooler and ice packs. The lanai over looks Honl’s beach where you can watch locals surf, daily yoga at 8 am, and dolphins swimming by the shore. Only complaint is the kitchen utensils could use an update but we were still able to cook daily. Washer and dryer in unit huge plus for our family!

Amazing place! Right on the ocean. A pro surf spot! Clean and comfortable, as described. Amazing poke place downstairs and a short drive to restaurants/cafes. The pool was a little chilly but clean and easily accessible. Highly recommend.

We really enjoyed the condo and the views were out of this world. The building was quiet, we never heard neighbors, and the building was upkept. We stayed for 8 days, frequently hauling loads of either groceries or "stuff" and were thankful that there was an elevator to assist in the frequent trips to the car. The car parking space is located beneath the building in the shade, which was very nice to not have to get into a hot car each day. The condo was very clean and there were lots of little extras provided. There were lots of options for borrowing snorkeling masks and goggles, swim fins and even a beach umbrella. We packed lunches every day and we were thankful for the cooler options allowing us to pack what we needed to keep cool. Listening to the waves at night outside the master bedroom was very peaceful. We would wake up early and watch the surfers out each morning in front of the condo. Very relaxing trip. Our host was very responsive to questions and we would go back!

We had an absolutely amazing experience—I can't say enough good things! Kelly's home is even more beautiful than the pictures, with stunning views throughout the complex, and a perfect spot to watch the sunset. The space was spotless and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, from kitchen appliances to a welcome book filled with great recommendations. Check-in was seamless, and parking was hassle-free. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again!

What a great find!!! Marco’s condo is everything as advertised & more! Beautiful view, quiet, clean, great new appliances. Location is easily walkable to all of Ali’i Drive. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning, watching the paddlers, parasailers, and surfers. Complex has a fantastic pool & hot tub that are immaculately maintained. We miss it already!

We had a nice stay at Hale Ho'omaha at the Kailua Bay resort. It was just like in the photos. Clean bathrooms and kitchen. Washer and drier were convenient for towels and clothes after long days out in the sun. Nice amenities. Clean and comfortable bedroom and loft spaces. Just right for our family of 4. Close and walkable to downtown Kailua-Kona and also near to surrounding stores and malls. Is also conveniently located by car to the attractions, activities, and beaches on the Kona side. Janell and Dale were kind and responsive hosts. We were comfortable and happy there for our one-week vacation.
