Holiday rentals with beach access in South Kona

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.

We really enjoyed staying here. The place is very spacious and well appointed. It worked well as a jumping off point for Puna sight seeing as well as just chilling on the lanai. The beach across the street (one of the only swim friendly beaches in the area) was convenient and the breeze and views from the second floor unit lanai were great. Scott was friendly, provided good recommendations and responded to communication quickly. He’s also quite easygoing and nothing is complicated. The place was close (in between) to the 2018 lava flow sites. Having seen the volcano erupting a few days earlier, it was quite something to see up close the magnitude and power of Pele and how the landscape is actively changing due to volcanic activity. Recommend as a very comfortable and convenient place to stay.

A fabulous location and view! Everything was as described and Kathy was very easy to communicate with. The bed was super comfortable and the view from the lanai was amazing! We saw whales in the evening sunsets! Kona town was an easy 20 minute walk. The market across the street had delicious a delicious poke stand and taco truck. We loved it here and highly recommend Kathie's condo!

We loved our stay in Kathy’s place. We found it to be clean, comfortable and loved the beach amenities like the beach chairs and cooler etc. the bidet in the bathroom was awesome too. We can’t forget to mention the coffee machine- delicious espresso every morning. It does get a little noisy with the street noise, and you can hear the upstairs neighbors, the ac unit in the bedroom is pretty loud etc. it didn’t take away from our stay, but something to be aware of if you’re super sensitive. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your space Kathy!

Great place to stay and it has everything you need from cooking to beach day Very responsive host and very helpful 15 min -20 min ( because of traffic with local speed limit 15 miles/ hour) about to get to main grocery store like Costco Walmart etc But nicely located in middle of major attractions

We really enjoyed our stay in this condo. It was just as described and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfy and the private lanai is a big plus! Access to the well maintained pool is a game changer. The grounds are well taken care of and the view of the ocean is beautiful, especially at sunset. Great location! Would definitely stay here again!

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.

We could not have wished for a more perfect home for our top short stay. We wanted to stay there months and months longer if possible. The house was very well stocked and the owner has thought of everything to make your stay amazing. The view of the most perfect cove is just a gem to wake up to everyday. We could snorkel and surf right in front of the home. There’s an awesome poke place within walking distance. This home is perfect.

Completely unique home with beautiful Balinese artifacts everywhere, gorgeous wooden carved chairs, tables, oriental rugs. Incredible wall maps, prints, artwork. All in open breezy surroundings, modern fully stocked kitchen and beautiful huge swank baths (loved the Polynesian drums!). Many to omy places to stretch out or eat. Was really hard to leave it each day to visit the island’s many attractions, including a volcano eruption that happened just as we arrived! Thanks for this lovely experience.

Great place to stay way from all the noise of Kona. Woke up every morning to birds singing. Beautiful view of the ocean from the back porch, saw whales close to the beach. Overall, the home was as advertised and was worth the cost. It was more home than my wife and I needed for this trip, and could comfortable support three couples if desired. The host was responsive to our messages and very friendly. I plan on staying here again if given the opportunity.

Very nice home and great amenities! The hot tub was awesome and the proximity to swimmable water was super. It was cold but it is February😋 The space was plenty big for our family of four and great for entertaining on the large lanai. Loved the kitchen! And AC in the bedrooms was a bonus! Great location for food trucks which were next door! It is pretty loud outside with the airport only 5 minutes away and the Suisan Warehouse across the street. The building has pretty great soundproofing but just make note😋 Kaleo was an absolutely amazing host and I will definitely be staying here again in the near future. Mahalo-

Jason’s rental was amazing! Air conditioning was great, very clean and comfortable. A lot of great amenities including boogie boards, snorkel great and even a cooler for the beach. Layout of the home was awesome bedrooms were on opposite sides of the house so we didn’t feel like we were on top of each other. Loved this rental!

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 studio vacation rental hide-away is so beautiful and well-equipped (4-poster bed, gorgeous bathroom with a giant bathtub, roof top deck, hammock) that if you wanted a couple's honeymoon or anniversary stay it is really perfect for that. The owners level of detail is pretty amazing--coffee makings, bath soap and shampoo, patio hammock, and good linens. We were able to ask for the bed linens to be laundered with unscented soap and this request was met with no problem. The plentiful windows bring in a beautiful amount of light. The outdoor surroundings including the varied bird sounds create a jungle-like ambience. Caveats: Because of it's location, for tourist activities like Volcanoes National Park or Mauna Kea you do have a to do a lot of driving, so be prepared for that. If you end up needing healthcare, be aware the closest urgent care is a 45-minute drive.

We stayed 4 days here with extended family in the smaller home on the same property and it was great. The kitchen was well stocked, there was plenty of space for our family of 5 (larger group was 10 total) to spread out. The best part was the beach across the road with good snorkeling (stronger currents so be careful) and lagoon with turtles. Plenty of outdoor gear to borrow- SUP, kayaks, small boogie boards, water shoes and snorkel/fins. Would definitely stay here again.

...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 has done it again! This was our second year staying at Terry’s well equipped and beautiful condo. Again we enjoyed daily whale watching right on the beach as well as sea turtles feeding on the shoreline. You will be in need of nothing at Terry’s hideaway as he has truly thought of every guests’ needs. In fact Terry reached out to us prior to our arrival offering to pick up anything we needed as we had a late flight. Our flight going home didn’t leave until late at night and Terry allowed us to check out late as well! Mahalo again Terry. Stay blessed 🌺😌

Marc was very responsive to any questions I had. Comfortable bed and felt like home away from home. Loved having my morning coffee on the patio listening to the waves. Would stay here again

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 had a great stay here. Absolutely beautiful view from the unit over the ocean with gorgeous sunsets. Easy, short drive to Kona for restaurants and other shopping needs. Well equipped kitchen and easy parking. Only minor issue was there were no shades to block the late afternoon sun in the unit. We'd happily stay here again.

Kelly's place was a great spot in Kona. The condo was exactly as listed and had easy check in with a provided code. There was a quick snafu with check in that was quickly resolved by Kelly's responsiveness. The sand/pool area was a wonderful place for sunset and tide pool viewing. Would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to rent again from Marco. The condo was well equipped for cooking and relaxing. There were only two of us so we couldn't comment on the sleeper sofa. The washer and dryer were convenient and worked well. Marco always responded quickly to our questions and concerns. The views out to the pool and shore were excellent.

Our stay was great. The place is laid out nicely and easy to use. We liked to eat breakfast and dinner on the lanai every day. There is a pretty decent view of the bay from the lanai.
