Vacation rentals in Hapuna Bay

We had the vacation of a lifetime at Annie’s place! If you are dreaming of a true waterfront location, that has sea turtles for viewing every day, access to snorkeling in your front yard, sunrise and sunsets that take your breath away, and somewhere to fall asleep to the sound of ocean waves…then Annie’s place is for you. A quick run down the street to the general store lets you load up on homemade dips, gelato, and amazing fresh cookies made daily! You will also have to take it slow because the wild turkeys, goats, and local cats will greet you outside on the road of the Airbnb on a daily basis. The home is older but a true Hawaiian feel, offering all that we needed. We loved it all! It is close to several resort areas with plentiful amounts of places to eat, easy shopping, and a great free public black sand beach. The little town of Waimea is also fantastic and not a far drive that hosts several hidden gem places to eat that are unforgettable!

Peaceful Hale exceeded expectations! We stayed for a week with friends, using it as a base for day trips. I wish we’d stayed here longer instead of 2 nights in Volcano (though Volcano Treehouse was unique!). The outdoor showers, spacious lanai, and serene surroundings were highlights. It’s near activities yet away from big resorts. Kalia was incredibly helpful, offering advice before and during our stay. Her beautiful garden was an added treat. Mahalo for an amazing experience! Travel Tips: - Arrive early for public parking at Mauna Kea Resort beach. I lucked out going at 4PM. There can be construction noise. - Happy Hour at Seafood Bar & Grill - Waimea: Weds/Sat farmers markets; GJ’s Huli Huli chicken on Sat/Sun by Kamuela Liquor; Sandwich Isle Bread Company; get reservations for lunch/dinner at Merriman’s, get provisions at Long’s. - Great snorkeling at Beach 69, Puako Bay, and Māhukona Beach Park - Food trucks with shave ice, coffee, and malasadas are at Rt. 19 and Puako Beach Dr.

We had an amazing stay at Allyson’s condo on the Big Island! The apartment was spotless, beautifully organized, and so thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed – it truly felt like a home away from home for the week. From the kitchen supplies to the beach gear, every detail was carefully considered and made our holiday so much more comfortable and relaxing. The location was perfect for exploring the island, and we loved having such a peaceful, welcoming space to return to at the end of each day. Allyson was a fantastic host - so kind, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting the Big Island - thank you for making our trip so special! The best Airbnb we have ever stayed at.

Somtida is such a warm and welcoming host. She gave us many great recommendations about how to spend our time on the big island. Her house is beautiful and well kept, and the apartment we stayed in was nicely appointed, and had all that we needed. Also, the bed is soooo comfy! She made our honeymoon extra special by giving us local fruits, including her own home grown mangoes! They were so delicious! She made us feel right at home, and we would be happy to stay with her again!

Great little spot! Close to amazing beaches, came into a clean and well-kept place, extra things like detergent, etc and they had a surprise box of chocolates for us too. The neighborhood is quiet and we didn't hear a peep from downstairs. The front patio is amazing-- great sunsets. We would stay here again. One side note - there is no A/C. Plenty of fans, but it's good to know ahead of time. Thanks for a nice stay!

Lovely neighborhood, comfortable house, gorgeous view and backyard.

We absolutely LOVED this place and we would definitely recommend it. The apt is located on the golf course with a peaceful view. The apartment itself was beautiful with two full bathrooms! Ana's instructions on what to do was wonderful and helpful. We did most of the activities she suggested and they were awesome. Ana had everything we needed such as a beach umbrella, snorkeling equipment, two Big Island - Hawaii books, and kitchen supplies. We cannot say enough good things about her place. The apt. is less than 15 minutes from two of the most amazing beaches on the Big Island, Hapuna and Mauna Kea Beach Resort. The apt is also close to a supermarket, coffee shop, King/Queen Marketplace and more! Ana was lovely and easy to work with. We appreciated everything she did to make us feel welcomed and at home with so many thoughtful amenities. We had an amazing vacation and wonderful memories in her home. Thank you so much, Ana!

Amazing place that is exactly as pictured! We arrived at night and it was a little hard to find. There aren’t lights around so be aware of that if you are arriving at night. Also, it’s on a slant and you can only enter from the back door so you walk over mud and grass to get to the door. It can be a bit tricky and messy. If you aren’t ok with a few bugs (you are surrounded by beautiful nature), this place might not be for you. The place was clean and the view to wake up to was absolutely gorgeous! So peaceful. A unique place to stay! Mahalo!
