Kealakekua Bay Vacation Rental house

2 years ago, my daughter approached me about my upcoming 60th birthday. Where did I want to go? We kicked around ideas like a month in Italy or an Alaskan cruise. I had just returned from a week at the Dolphin Bay House with another couple, and since I could chose anywhere, I just wanted to go back there. I wanted to dive with the mantas on my birthday (we had 10 of them show up!) I’m very well traveled, and I’ve fallen in love with the Big Island, specifically this area near Kona. If you’re going to visit Hawaii, the Big Island is the best, and Kona is where you’ll want to be. There’s so much to do on the island, whether you’re here for golf, scuba diving, sightseeing, or simply recharging. There’s no place I’d rather stay than this beautiful home in this magical setting. I was traveling with my entire family, including a 2-year old granddaughter. The house was perfect. The location was perfect. The neighbors were friendly. We had a 2 minute walk to the bay for swimming, kayaking, diving and snorkeling. We loved walking around the block taking pictures of the beautiful flowers. The sunsets were fabulous.. The best golf course on the island is only 15 minutes away. The house is simply gorgeous! It was completely remodeled since our last visit and is worth six stars on a scale of five! The house is roomy and well appointed, with a gourmet kitchen – top of the line everything throughout. It should be featured in an architectural magazine! The beds are comfortable (with 7 of us; the house was perfect for us with separate area downstairs for the couple w/ the small child). The master bath is unbelievable! I wanted to take it home with me! The neighborhood is so safe, that we felt like we didn’t have to lock our doors at night. We ventured to Hilo and later to Maui, and found the comparison between the people strikingly different from the folks in Kona. This has to be the friendliest place in the world! I’ll never return again to the masses of Kaanapali. My future trips will bring me back to the serenity of this little spot of heaven on earth.
The owners are wonderful and very easy to deal with. The reservation and payment process was seamless. This is their second home, so they make sure it's beautifully maintained and appointed, ensuring every comfort and luxury for their visitors. They sent a list of recommended shopping locations, restaurants and babysitters (they knew we had a little one!). You couldn't ask for a better vacation experience!
