Family-friendly vacation rentals in Kona

Great place for family of 4. We felt completely at home. Would have liked a larger lanai but was fine for the 4 of us. Very nice to supply beach chairs. Beds were very comfortable and loved having the ceiling fans. Kitchen was nicely stocked

I’ve stayed in hundred of Airbnb’s and thousands of hotels and this was by far one of the best locations due to our experience with the host. We enjoyed a peaceful honeymoon and loved the views! Highly recommend staying here for your time in Kona. Great location and clean space.

Everything was perfectly fine, we stayed a couple of nights during our honeymoon and enjoyed the Pineapple Express! Pretty house and surrounding. Albert gave us some recommendations for activities and food, which was very helpful!

This was the best first Airbnb experience. We were celebrating our 10-year anniversary with our 3 young kids. This home was just beautiful. The photos do not do enough justice. The home was super spacious and TV in both rooms. Our 5yr old enjoyed the jacuzzi because it was shallow and warm. The pool was huge with a diving board. It was nice having the outdoor kitchen and grill. We were able to prepare our food while also watching the kids swim. We enjoyed her papayas, avocados, and mango. Ms. Sandra shared with us her organic eggs from her chickens, Kale, beets, basil, and lettuce from her garden. Every morning when I woke up, I couldn't wait to open the curtains and windows to see the view and hear the birds. I could go on and on about this place. Thank you Ms. Sandra. It was such a pleasure meeting you and spending time in you beautiful home🙏

We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed our stay! The spacious Villa was super clean, well maintained and the beds were comfortable. Lots of beach items to use, short walk to the community pool, tennis court and barbecue. Quiet and peaceful with a very relaxing feel. Seth is a great host! Would diffinetly stay here again.

We had a wonderful time at Cooks Landing! Our first impression was 'WOW'. At first we were skeptical about some of the photos seeming dark... but the pictures do not do this place justice. Beautiful home that is located in a beautiful private community. It was clean and well stocked with plenty of extras that you may need from either home use or the beach. We loved the location, which was located not far from a key highway intersection that could take you to your Hawaiian adventure. The Ocean Club (pool) pictures do not do it justice either! It had a great design that overlooked the ocean that was perfect for watching the sunset with a Mai Tai in hand! I would say that the pool is family friendly too. It had shallow depth & a spot that toddlers could play in. It had a bar, restaurant, and tasteful live local music. 12/10 would recommend this place. A very big MAHALO to Jim & Kristi for opening this beautiful home to people.

My family had a great time at Kevin & Cindy’s. The unit was great and the location was perfect for accessing all of the Kona activities and restaurants. We used the pool every day and the whole experience was lovely. Hosts were very communicative and helpful. 5/5!

We loved our time at this house. It’s set on a beautiful, lush property very convenient to everything on the Kona side of the island. The house was clean and very comfortable. There were tons of beach recreation supplies and the hot tub was a welcome addition! Adam was really responsive and had some great suggestions in the guest book. There’s a neighbor dog that barks in the morning, so that may wake you up if you’re a light sleeper, but otherwise this was a great place to stay while exploring the island.

Great location! The house was very clean and well-maintained, with stylish and comfortable furniture. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back.

The location was perfect! The beach was very close and there were many restaurants and shops just down the street. The inside was immaculate and was the perfect stay for my mom, daughter, and myself. There were so many amenities and items that were useful in the house, such thoughtful hosts. We would definitely stay again when we come back.

I had a comfortable stay. I loved the local bread and produce in the kitchen. Avocado toast with banana and papaya was amazing sitting on the front lanai. The bed was quite relaxing with lots of soothing pillows for a perfectly restful sleep.

Great stay! Best host I’ve ever had in all my stays with Airbnb. Responsive, communicative. Went out of his way to make sure we had all we needed; for example, purchased a brand new high chair so we wouldn’t need to pack one. Really nice home. Pool was great.

Wonderful location, private with beautiful grounds. Loved watching the wildlife in the mornings. Kitchen was well stocked, had a bit of trouble with the stove, but finally figured it out. Everything looked exactly like the photos, so no surprises. Would definitely recommend, especially as the host was very helpful and responsive.

I am a return guest at this lovely Airbnb. Everything is as described, and Lorelle goes out of her way to make sure to help you optimize your staycation. Do not hesitate to book and do not believe Cassie’s review. This is my second visit and the unit is definitely not dirty! I will be back again hopefully sooner than later! Thanks Lorelle!

Beth was a terrific hostess! She always responded warmly to us. Her home and lanai are amazing! And the EASY walk to Manini Beach was the huge cherry on top. Thank you Beth for the use of all the beach toys and snorkel gear!!

Quick responses and very helpful when issues came up.

Very clean floor, spacious rooms and patio. Located in a convenient place (short drive to Kua bay, Hapuna and the Volcano, not as dense and packed like Kona). Not many things to ask, since the instructions were clear. Very comfortable stay, one of the best airbnb we've ever stayed.

Ninik’s condo was perfect for our party of six (four adults and two small children). It is well furnished, tastefully decorated and offers a well equipped kitchen. The location is very private with only a short walk to the clubhouse and swimming pools. We would gladly rent this property again.

We had the most amazing stay in Kona at Richard’s place. The house truly felt like home away from home for a week. The pool and outdoor area were fabulous with breathtaking views of the ocean. The inside was perfect for our family from the dining area to the tv area to the game area where we gathered to play some of the games Richard had on hand a few of the evenings we were there. When we go back, we definitely want to book Richard’s place again! We sure miss being there this week!

Just what we needed! Beautiful, comfortable, quiet and well appointed. The grounds were lovely. It was a bit far from any restaurants or shopping, but not a big deal if you’re up for a good walk to town in the morning.

Great townhouse equipped with all we could need for our stay. Townhouse is really clean and comfortable and the complex itself is really well maintained, quiet and not crowded. There was always space at the pool and at the courts. Location is great, close to Kailua, few minutes walk from one of the best snorkeling beaches on the island. Brad is a great host, thoughtful and very responsive. We are looking forward to coming back!

My family of four had a wonderful stay at this condo. It was wonderful to have two bathrooms and the kitchen was perfectly equipped. We found the condo spacious and enjoyed eating n the lanai. The resort is nicely landscaped and has two pools and two hot tubs. It was close to town and walkable to shops and restaurants (lots of people walk in the wide shoulder of the road). Michael was responsive and proactive, unlike some other “hosts” I attempted to work with on units in similar resorts. Thank you for a great stay!

We loved our stay at Mary’s place! Although it was a little more remote than expected, we appreciated the access to the different beautiful beaches in the neighborhood. The snorkeling at Manini Beach was spectacular! Because we had our 8 month old granddaughter with us, we also spent a lot of time in the beautiful pool. The “glamping” aspect of our stay was fun and we enjoyed the sounds of nature, particularly our rooster alarm at the crack of dawn which certainly helped us get our days started. We would highly recommend Mary’s place and wouldn’t hesitate staying again when on the island.

Yumi and Gen were accommodating. The originally booked timeshare resort was not available, so they found another nearby location. Communication was easy. There was a slight check in issue at resort - my name was spelled incorrectly, but with confirmation number we were fine. Wished the resorts rooms had better sound proof walls, better mattress, sheets and pillows. Also air conditioning was an extra $13/day charge at the resort. But the hosts cannot change the amenities of the resort. All in all, good stay for our needs to explore Kona! Friendly hosts!
