Kid-friendly vacation rentals in South Kona

One of the best Airbnb’s that we stayed at! Mattress was very comfortable, kitchen had everything and Justin was also kind enough to put in a window AC since the living room AC wasn’t working! Recommended!

We had a fantastic stay! Beautiful home, quiet and conveniently located. This is truly a beautiful property and we would be glad to stay again.

Had an incredible experience at Joe's Jungle Treehouse. I wanted something quiet, more remote yet not too far out, with a jungle vibe. And this place is just that. I loved it and hope to be back in that hammock again soon! Thanks Joe!

I had an absolutely wonderful stay! The space was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable visit. The host was incredibly kind, responsive, and made check-in a breeze. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch Airbnb experience.

We had the dream family trip of a lifetime. The kids loved the pool—morning, noon and evening except when we went off on adventures. The neighborhood was quiet and within walking distance of a rocky beach. The house was roomy and well stocked with two large, long dining tables, one indoors and the other on an enclosed porch outdoors. Perfect for family dining. Joe and Anna were lovely hosts, pleasant and informative. We’d definitely recommend this home to anyone.

Jenne’s place is everything described in the posting. The view was awesome. We enjoyed the garden, the trees and the birds. The welcome cookies was a nice touch - kids enjoyed it. Overall wonderful stay. Would definitely return next time we come to big island.

Lucky to grab this location for a few days. Accommodations were great for three parties of folks. Especially great one couple could bring their dog. Unfortunately, we missed the volcano eruptions, which started the day we checked out for home. They seemed to have everything you might need and super cozy, including the reclining couch sections were comfortable enough to sleep in!!

This place was fantastic. The view is amazing- ocean, stars, mountains, it literally has it all. It’s super family friendly, tons of stuff to help you if you are traveling with an infant, toys, yard, safe space, play pen— everything you could need. It’s in a great spot with beautiful beaches ten minutes away. The hosts are so incredible. We grilled out on the deck watching the stars, picked fruit in the yard, enjoyed Kona coffee. If you stay anywhere else on big island you are missing out. This is a must stay and an incredible experience. We will return ❤️

Thank you kindly for the opportunity to stay in your home. We appreciated your great location in Kona! Hope to stay with you again next time.

Really loved our stay. We made great use of the beach and snorkle equipment provided. Loved being close by so many beaches includng Honaunau. Place was clean, wifi was fast, and was especially nice to have a washer and dryer.

I’d make up a reason to go to Hawaii just to stay at Megan and Vicent’s Airbnb again. To start, they were excellent hosts - very responsive before arrival, and available for questions and suggestions once we arrived. The house itself is so peaceful, comfortable, and roomy that it sometimes made it difficult to mobilize in the mornings. The interiors were killer, too - everything I’d include if I were decking out my own island home. Thanks again for a fantastic stay!! - Brian

I really enjoyed my stay at Jon and Mariluz’s place. From start to finish, they were incredibly friendly and helpful. The home was spotless, quiet, and peaceful, with a beautiful view that made my stay even more special. The bed was super comfortable, and I had some of the best, deepest sleep during my time there. What I loved most was the perfect balance of being close to town and the beach while still enjoying a quiet and serene atmosphere. Jon and Mariluz also shared amazing suggestions for places to visit, which made exploring the area even better. Anything extra I needed, they provided with warmth and kindness. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with wonderful hosts!

We began our 17 day tour of the big island at Dennis (Max) place and ended our island time on his property in a different unit. Both were excellent. 1000 ft elevation so out of the desert heat of Kailua- Kona. 15 minutes from the airport up the mountain in a neighborhood. We appreciated having a kitchen and ability to create a meal there. Bed was comfy and linens were lovely.

We travel frequently with our teenage/ adult kids using Airbnb or other home rental services. We've only come upon a handful of hosts and homes that really seem to understand the needs of the traveler. Priscilla and Rob's home is one of them! I unfortunately did not get to meet Priscilla on this trip, but Rob went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and yet also give us our privacy. The home is clean, organized and has all the essentials and more to make meals, and enjoy your time. The hosts provided a lovely welcome gift of food items for breakfast and snacks, as well as some beautiful produce items. If you know how expensive groceries are in Hawaii, it tells a lot about the generosity and caring of the hosts. Thank you Rob and Priscilla for a wonderful week! We made wonderful memories.

Exceptional host! Had a wonderful time in a great setting! Would book every time we are on the big island!

Lopaka’s place was absolutely wonderful for our first trip to Kona! The instruction is super clear about how to find the place and how to park. We did snorkeling/swimming at Kona and we were able to the laundry which was amazing! Waking up in the morning was fabulous with nice ocean view, singing birds. There are great coffee shops which was less than 5 mins walk. Highly recommended the place and will definitely come back next time to the Big Island!

Great place, great location, calm area, secure and clean (except limescale and water marks in the bathroom). Fully equipped kitchen to cook properly. We would suggest to add a coffee table in the living room and a little table on the balcony.

Great place to stay. Clean and sizeable. There was a stocked kitchen and two bathrooms. There is snorkel gear, a body board, chairs, umbrellas, cooler, and towels available for use. There are restaurants, gas station, and groceries very close. The area is beautiful. Checking on and out took no effort. The only downside is that it was far from many of our activities. We picked this location because we had a conference at Westin Hapuna resort which is about 20 min away. Most other activities were 40-90 min away however, since we spent a lot of time on kona and Hilo. Totally recommend if you can handle a bit of driving.

Vacation with Girlfriends. The view from the Lanai was incredible! Holly was always responsive and communicated with clear instructions. Wonderful place to stay!! We will return to this Beautiful Home that she shared!! Thank you Holly!!

Jenna was very responsive and the condo was extremely clean and easy to access with the keypad. I appreciated her giving great recommendations for restaurants, beaches, and local things to do! Would definitely stay at the condo again.

This sweet condo was just what we needed! The pools and little porch were great and the ability to walk to the bench and see the sunset was perfect. It was so great to be able to use the umbrella and beach chairs on our outings. Great spot!

A great place to stay!! Beautiful location, and quiet. the only downside was there was very little space to set toiletries, suitcases, etc. It was still very well worth the stay, though, and we really enjoyed it!

This condo is right on the water - nothing but a strip of lawn between you and the water. It has a nice lanai ( balcony) with a dining table and chairs for four and a couple of lounge chairs. The kitchen is reasonably well kitted out. Paul was exceptionally responsive and nice.

Great base for traveling around Kona and the Big Island. Lots of space. Good lighting and comfortable living room. Host was responsive when we arrived and unit had not been cleaned. Second bedroom is in loft space so sounds from whole unit can be heard (not great for light sleepers). Appreciated beach chairs etc but they could use an update. Has a/c in all rooms but temperature regulation in various spaces was somewhat difficult.
