About this property

Magnificent! Private Pool & Hot Tub - 180 degree Ocean Views

  • “Wow.”
    That’s the first word guests say when they arrive — and it’s easy to see why. The beauty of this place will take your breath away.

    If you’re dreaming of an authentic Hawaiian escape, welcome home. Wake up to the scent of tropical flowers, the songs of colorful birds, and the peaceful rhythm of island life.

    This private estate is a true hidden gem — spacious, serene, and designed for total relaxation. Set on a lush one-acre property in one of Kona’s most desirable neighborhoods, you’ll feel completely removed from the bustle of town — yet you’re only minutes from pristine beaches, local markets, and the vibrant heart of Kona.

    At a comfortable 900 ft elevation, just four miles north of Kona Village, the air is about ten degrees cooler than the coast with refreshingly lower humidity. Open your windows to let in the gentle ocean breezes — no air conditioning needed, just pure island comfort.

    Enjoy complete privacy with no neighbors in sight and sweeping 180° ocean views that stretch endlessly toward the horizon. The fertile landscape bursts with exotic fruits and flowers — everything here thrives, and so will you.

    I live quietly upstairs and fully respect your privacy. I’m here if you need anything, but otherwise, the space is entirely yours to enjoy.

    Welcome to Kona Heavens Hideaway — your peaceful home away from home. Tucked into the countryside yet close to everything, it’s truly the best of both worlds: the magic of old Hawai‘i with the comforts of today.

This house is really a hidden gem, we loved our stay here. The fruit Sandra left for us are the sweetest I've ever had.The location is very convenient to downtown Kona.The layout of the rooms are a little funky to get used to, but totally functional, with 2 bathrooms and a lot of doors to go to the pool!Can't beat the private pool and hot tub! Watching sunset there, listening to the birds chirp and frogs sing, magical.Lastly, I will mention there is no dishwasher in the kitchen, or washer/dryer, not a big issue though.

Island living

If you're looking for an authentic island vibe, this is the perfect place to stay.Sandra was a fantastic host, and the property—nestled up in the mountains—offered stunning ocean views and lush, tropical surroundings. The outdoor kitchen gave us a true taste of island living, and the area was filled with beautiful wildlife. It was incredibly private and peaceful, a true escape.Our favorite part of the day was enjoying breakfast outside, taking in the breathtaking scenery and listening to the natural sounds around us.Highly recommend this magical getaway!

Amazing oasis!

My family and I stayed for a week at spring break and enjoyed our stay. This stay is the bottom floor of a large house and a giant back yard full of fruit trees. We enjoyed spending time outdoors, the ocean view and especially the fresh fruit and avocados. The hot tub was also very nice and we made use of the badmitton set and basketball hoop. Unfortunately the pool was broken during our stay, but we were given a partial refund for this and I'm sure it's fixed by now. After the crowded beaches, it was always nice to come back to this peaceful oasis. It felt very private even being in a neighborhood.

Paradise indeed

By far the best VRBO we have ever been to. Yes the kitchen is outside. Does it matter? No! It’s Hawaii! Delightful property, owner is very friendly and helpful. She was always prompt when answering any questions we had. Free tropical fruit and eggs. Pool is deep enough to practice your snorkeling or free diving techniques. Lovely neighborhood. Loved staying in the hills above Kona, it was always a little cooler up there. The standard by which we will judge all future VRBOs.

Memorable Kona Stay

Our family enjoyed our stay, with family members reporting that this was our best trip yet to Big Island. Sandra greeted us warmly upon arrival. She kindly left a few homegrown goodies for us in the fruit bowl, which was a big hit. The outdoor kitchen is very well appointed, and we did not eat out for any of our meals. Sharp knives, basic spices, proper cookware-we were not disappointed. The family grill master enjoyed having all the tools he needed to get the job done. Of course the backyard pool, toys, sunset added to the wonderful experience. The beds were a comfortable place to land at the end of the day. Plenty of linens, a spare toothbrush for the one who left his at home, toiletries-all much appreciated. The provided beach towels were thick and absorbent. The washer and dryer worked well, and it was so helpful to have cleans clothes when needed. And the location. Surprisingly convenient, to Costco, to the highway up the hill and down the hill, plus so many attractions with an easy drive's distance. Our family of 4 highly recommends a stay here while in Kona.

Amazing!

We have staying in many places found through vrbo but this one was exceptional. Beautiful setting, clean and well maintained property, easy to get to places from, space to run around... it had it all. We loved the privacy of the pool and gardens. My 12 year old twins loved the chickens! We would love to return for another visit!

Eleven days in Paradise

My wife and I loved our eleven days we spent at this home. The views from the home are outstanding. Each morning eating our breakfast from the outside kitchen and listening to the birds and watching the clouds drift over the ocean are priceless memories. The neighborhood and overall location of this home are excellent. We will be back again to the Big Island and staying at this home.

Second time here was as good as the first

We stayed here for the first time in April 2018 and loved it so when we planned a somewhat spontaneous trip back to Kona in November this was an easy choice. There are many good vacation rentals in Kona and we typically like to move around to have differing experiences each time. So it's a tribute to the appeal of this place that we came here again. Sandra and Ken are very gracious and informative hosts, and we've learned a lot about good snorkeling sites and places to eat out that we might never have thought of.

Wonderful property with a great location

Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay here. The property is spectacular and very private yet just a few minutes from the coast. Sandra made us feel very welcome and was very responsive to any questions. She had great suggestions for locations to visit! Everything about the property was great: the orchard (with massive avocados), the well-stocked kitchen, the pool & hot tub... I could go on and on. SO happy we chose this home over a resort property.

Wonderful Stay

This property was the perfect home base for our family's first trip to Hawaii. We wanted a mix of relaxation and exploration, and Sandra's property made both of those fantastically easy. Our whole family enjoyed downtime in the pool, hot tub, and yard playing badminton while the location made it a good jump off point for trips north or south along the coast or to head towards Hilo. Also convenient for airport, groceries, and restaurants. The house was immaculately clean, the kitchen was well stocked for cooking, & the beach toys, chairs, and towels were much appreciated. The memories of the lovely ocean view looking over the gorgeous yard's diverse and beautiful foliage mixed with the bird sounds will always linger when thinking of our time there!!

Like our own botanical gardens

We just loved, loved, loved our stay here. Such a beautiful spot with the view of the ocean and wonderfully landscaped yards. I enjoyed waking up early with my six year old and exploring the property for wildlife - birds, geckos, visiting wild chickens - and enjoying all the many fruit trees. My husband was in love with the outdoor kitchen. Our son thoroughly enjoyed all the legos and toys - when not in the pool which is where we spent most of our time. The unit had everything we needed, minus washer/dryer (unless we were absolutely blind), but as it was a shorter stay we managed without. Would stay there again in a heartbeat and hope that that day will come again soon! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful home with us.
