Kid-friendly holiday rentals in South Kona

Minh is truly a super host, attentive to detail and to her guests’ needs. She will make you feel at home from the moment you step into her beautifully decorated and fully equipped home. Communication is important to feel relaxed while on vacations. Minh was permanently in touch with us, making sure we were feeling comfortable. When we had problems with the water heater and the ice maker, she fixed them in no time. She even contacted a friend of hers to provide us with ice for our cooler. This friend also gave us fresh eggs from her hens. It was so nice to experience the hospitality of the people in the Big Island! The view of the sunset from the balcony is a piece of art. Her immaculate garden is a treasure. The beautiful color of bamboo in her furniture complements the colors of the sun and brings out the warmth of the house. Minh’s quaint home and hospitality brought peace, joy, and rest to our lives! We came back home renewed. Mahalo, from the bottom of our hearts!

Wow. What a spectacular place. A true eco-jungle-lodge-type experience. The location, the home, the host's communication and aloha spirit - everything was fantastic. Highly recommend 4WD / AWD car for the driveway, although we made it work with a sedan (kind of comical, actually). We are an adventurous family of four adults (2 grown kids) that likes experiences and lodging that would be the opposite of a cruise ship or resort. This place was perfect for us. We will be back!

Marilyn's place is flawless. My husband and I have been booking places through airbnb for a while and this was definitely the best one ever. I am very picky with cleanliness, and this place was spotless. Craig the home caretaker made sure to gave us all the information we needed, show us around, besides being super nice and friendly. The view from this tiny house was incredible, the place was exactly like the pictures, comfortable and had everything we needed. Marilyn's hospitality was amazing. She left us fresh fruit from her garden and a delicious cake on the fridge for when we arrived. Both Craig and Marilyn made us feel welcomed and made our experience perfect. We hope to come back someday.

Incredible place! Beautiful gardens. Walking distance to beach. Great location for day trips. Jill has an amazing attention to detail and the spacious studio displays all of her artistic prowess. It's truly a sanctuary to unwind and chill out. Do yourself a favor and book it for as long as your vacation allows.

Beautiful home and property, comfortable, the cleanest place we have ever stayed in. Attention to detail throughout the home. Host was friendly and responsive, we plan to stay at this location again in the future.

Beautiful flowers outside the door. Great instructions and super easy to get to. Great location close to Volcanos National Park and restaurants in Volcano.

Really nice apartment. Communication went really well and Pamela and Kenzie were really friendly in providing head lamps for the night at volcano. The location is awesome. It only takes 10 minutes to go to volcano national park. It is great to relax on the veranda and in the hot tube listening to noises of the forest after an adventurous day at the national park. I would definitely recommend this apartment.

The Sugar Shack was a great stop on our vacation. Gary was an exceptional host and showed us all the great snorkeling areas. We were very happy with the communication and all he provided at his rental.

The house in the clouds is so cozy and serene! We were greeted by the very friendly black cat Squeakers! It’s perfect for a night to stay at before hiking at Volcano National Park the next morning. Kristin is so friendly and responsive. It was so thoughtful of her to provide breakfast. Overall highly recommend!

While the roosters, frogs, and road noise were louder than expected, the provided ear plugs helped and the stay was comfortable. Kathy gave a nice tour of the property. We made good use of the snorkel gear at Two Step Beach, which is right down the hill and is considered the best snorkeling on the island. Hot tub was great and private. We appreciated the fresh fruit from the property every day. Tina’s bakery stand at the bottom of the driveway was incredible!

We really enjoyed Kathy’s condo. It was close to all of our snorkeling tours. Kathy is a very responsive host and gave great recommendations for food and activities. Thank you for a wonderful visit!

Beautiful views surrounded by ʻōhiʻa in bloom. Wendy was responsive and friendly. Would definitely recommend!

I absolutely loved staying here! The place was so cozy and welcoming. It had everything I needed and more. The location was fantastic too - close to Hāpuna beach . I couldn't have asked for a better place to call home during my trip. I would highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a perfect airbnb! This is my second time staying here 🤗

Very good place to stay and nice amenities.

Great house in a good location. Everything can be reached quickly and easily. The house has everything you need for your holiday

Ka'Haiya's place had a great zen energy, located in one of the last unspoiled corners of the Big Island, you can really disconnect and relax. Green Sand Beach is an adventure just down the road, Black Sand Beach is a quick drive. Being in the South Point, you have equal distance to go East to Volcano National Park or West to all the beautiful beaches. We also covered Mauna Kea summit and the East Coast on our short 5 days stay. Ka'Haiya is a perfect host, quick to respond and offered us great suggestions; we enjoyed sampling the fresh exotic fruits at her farm stand.

We loved staying here! The location was close to many things in the Kona area. The dedicated parking spot made it easy to come and go. The mini-split AC was quiet and kept the place cool. The in-unit laundry was great too.

Great space! We loved our stay. Terry,s place was very comfortable. The presence of beach stuff was very helpful!!

I stayed here for nearly a week at Kirk's condo and I am very satisfied with the place. It's located in a central area close to the Kailua Boardwalk and a few resorts. He's also transparent and very communicative on the check in and check out processes. I highly recommend Kirk's place if you want to stay in Kona. Mahalo nui loa Kirk!

Beautiful stay. Beautiful majestic views and conveniently located close to the airport and Kona activities. The place was clean and had everything one could need. The kitchen was useful for cooking our own meals and the bed was comfortable to sleep in. I also loved seeing the little animals in the neighbors yard next door. The place had extra towels, blankets and other supplies you may need that made this place a great stay. I highly recommend.

place was beautiful! spacious and very well kept. location was great just a few minutes from the hustle and bustle of the strip down the road. host was responsive and helpful!

Great value for money Perfect location walkable and overlooking the ocean Marie is very kind and checks in all the time. Very convenient and max value - only thing I would say is couch is not as comfortable to sleep on but again can’t beat the value for money

We read reviews about bugs and a bad smell, however we had no issues with either. Place felt very clean and smelled great, has all the amenities and appliances that we needed. Even had a boogie board in the closet that we could use which was fun! Overall great place, right by tons of restaurants and stores as well as the shoreline.

Very peaceful place to stay and quite close to Kilauea but near the coast too which was the perfect combination for us as we wanted to spend a the day exploring the volcano but also have the warmth of lower elevation and easily stroll to the ocean from our condo. Tom and Christen were very accessible by text and had great suggestions on sights to see and things to do.
