Property floor plan
Ocean views and posh yet comfy furnishings will whisk you away to vacation paradise the moment you enter Kona Blue. The first level features a spacious entryway and foyer that leads to the dining room. With seating for eight, it's the perfect space for a festive dinner party. Relax in style in the open concept living room where you'll find soothing neutral decor and spectacular views of the pool and the sparkling blue ocean just beyond.
To the right of the living room you'll find the spacious kitchen, which is furnished with an eat-in area and all of the cooking essentials you could imagine. With ocean views, tons of space and lots of seating, you'll be inspired to whip up a great breakfast, blend a tropical smoothie or savor a cup of Kona coffee for you and your guests.
A large large laundry room with a full-size washer and dryer are near the kitchen, as well as the cozy fifth bedroom, where you'll find a plush queen bed, air conditioning, lanai access and ocean views.
Upstairs at Kona Blue you'll find all the comforts of home—and then some. Choose from four well-appointed bedrooms, including the "red room" which has a king-size bed, air conditioning, a quaint loveseat and private balcony, a room with two twin beds, air conditioning and serene mountain views, and a beautifully decorated room with air conditioning and a kitchenette. A spacious dual entry bathroom connects the two guest rooms while providing plenty of privacy.
The deluxe primary suite features air conditioning, a king-size bed, queen sleeper sofa, a twin daybed, walk-in closet stocked with lots of baby gear, and an en suite bathroom. The private lanai is a wonderful place to sip your morning coffee while taking in gorgeous views of the Pacific.
Gather your guests and watch a movie in the media room, which is also equipped with extra sleeping space for little ones in need of a nap.
Outdoors at Kona Blue, beauty and relaxation await you. Take a refreshing swim in the oceanfront pool, sip Mai Tais while relaxing on a chaise lounge, or lie down on the soft green grass and soak up the sun. Kona Blue has a plethora of furnished lanai space. With balmy tropical breezes and ocean views, it's perfect for hosting a large dinner party, or a romantic al fresco evening for two.
Kona Blue's three-car garage is where you'll find everything you need for a fun day at the beach, including chairs, umbrellas, coolers, boogie boards and more. A short five-minute walk and you're at Keiki Ponds Beach, where adults and kids will love exploring the warm tide pools while catching glimpses of minnows, shrimp and sea shells.
Kona Blue is only a mile from the Kailua-Kona Pier and to downtown, which is known for being a shopper's paradise. You'll also love exploring the area and its many significant Hawaiian cultural landmarks. Both the Hulihee Palace and the Mokuaikaua Church are located on Ali'i Drive. King Kamehameha, I spent his last years living near the current site of what is now the King Kamehameha's Kona Beach Hotel, until his passing in 1819. The Ahu'ena Heiau, located on the grounds of the hotel, is an iconic landmark and reconstructed temple rebuilt by the late king and is on the register of National Historic Landmarks.
Watch the cruise ships from the Kailua-Kona Pier, where you'll have access to Hawaii's best scuba diving, kayaking, and dolphin and whale watching. Buy fresh tropical fruit at the farmers market, enjoy shave ice or a cup of Kona coffee. Dine on a light snack or a gourmet meal, buy an inexpensive souvenir or a piece of fine art, book an activity, or hang out at the beach. There's plenty to do in and around Kailua-Kona. The pier is the official starting and finishing point of the Ironman World Championship (held annually in October), and a great place to watch the sunset.
Kona Blue is a beautiful vacation home located on Hawaii's majestic Kona Coast. Here you will find the perfect mix of beauty, tranquility outdoor adventure. We hope that you will make it your choice for your next Hawaiian vacation!

Kona Blue was a great home. It had lots of space and the ocean front view was incredible. I really liked that this is in a gated community too so that made it even better. We only ran into one issue and that was the first night the AC in the area over the garage wasn't working so it made that area unusable as it was 86 degrees in there. I was impressed though that they were able to get a technician out the next day on a Sunday to get it fixed. After that the AC ran great and kept it nice and cool. The outdoor Lanai lights didn't work but we didn't really care as we didn't really spend a lot of time outside at night. The last thing that we were not happy about is that the pictures online show different setups of rooms and different decor than what actually is. The outside Lanai had different seats and no rockers, the grass area outside is made to look a lot bigger than it actually is too, the main hang out room downstairs was setup differently with different furniture, and the several rooms upstairs were also laid out differently with different decor. Some updated photos would be great because our first impression upon arrival wasn't good. Overall it is a great house with lots of room. We would stay here again if we come back, but please get updated photos so everyone who rents this house can see what it actually looks like and not be surprised upon arrival.
We are so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Kona Blue! We apologize that the air conditioning did not work in the garage area and were glad we were able to get it fixed quickly. We understand that this issue should have been addressed prior to your arrival and regret our lapse. We will also make sure that updated photos are placed online for future guests, so they can have an accurate depiction of what to expect when they arrive. Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention and we hope that you plan on staying with us again soon!
Wow, it sounds like you and your family had an incredible time at this VRBO property! From the spacious gathering areas to the stunning views of whales in the backyard, it seems like every detail was perfectly designed for a memorable vacation. And with access to amenities like beach chairs, pool toys, and fishing poles, you truly had everything you needed right at your fingertips. It's great to hear that you felt secure in the gated community and that the property was conveniently located near downtown Kona and good restaurants. The heated outdoor shower is definitely a nice touch for rinsing off after a day at the beach or pool. I can imagine why you didn't want to leave - it sounds like paradise! Thank you for sharing your positive experience, and we hope to see you again soon at this amazing VRBO property.
50th wedding anniversary
by Judy TWe just returned and everyone had a great time. We were three families and everyone had their own space. The kids enjoyed exploring in the backyard on the lava rocks. There was also a small sandy beach close by that the 7 and 10 year old enjoyed. The sunsets were fantastic. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio with our coffee in the mornings and soaking in the view. It was a great place for the whole family to reconnect.
Great multi-generational spot, amazing views!
by Megan HThis was a fantastic place for three generations to gather, enjoy the pool, watch the sunsets, cook meals in the HUGE kitchen, spend time reading, and as a launching point for the island. Home is STOCKED with everything a family could want - tons of beach towels, a full cabinet of beach toys and umbrellas and chairs, and kitchen is well stocked. Home is tidy but not too modern (tiled countertops vs granite, for example) which was perfect for us. And the VIEWS!! It was amazing to cook dinner most nights with the extended family and watch the sunset and hear the crashing waves. A short walk away is a really nice extra-large tidepool (we saw fish and a turtle) for swimming with sand "the keiki pools". No walking to boogie boarding or surfing. Property management - Elite Pacific - was EXCELLENT and I would definitely book with them again. Example - garbage bins were full and they addressed it right away, inc other small maintenance items. Room configuration - one extra large master suite complete with living room and huge bath, another en suite master with ocean views on first floor, and three bedrooms at the back. This worked well for the 3 generations but may not be as great for three-four couples traveling together who all want the views. We loved the Kona Blue - great house in great locations with views to die for, a nice pool, well stocked with everything needed for an island vacation, and excellent property management.
Gorgeous yet comfortable
by Jennifer PThree families joined together in the beautiful and spacious house. There was plenty of room for everyone, and the house is perfectly located for quick runs into Kailu-Kona, as well as longer drives across the island to sites near Hilo. The children and adults in the group loved the pool and the easy proximity to the tidepools that are formed in the lava rock behind the poperty as well as the larger Keiki Ponds that are walking distance to the house. There is also a small sand beach walking distance to the property. The property management team was communicative and friendly as well. We would all rent this house again.
Ocean front!!!!
by Cindy CGreat house and location!
Kona
by Laurie GIt was lovely. We had a ball!
Great great location!
by Sloane RGreat great location! Amazing access to the ponds for young children. There is quite a bit of foot traffic on the public access path which borders the houses. LOTS and LOTS of children's toys, pool toys, bedding, etc. Most well stocked house. Only downside was there were quite a few ants. Would definitely stay here again!
This is a beautiful house in a beautiful setting. Right on a picturesque beach with a small private pool for cooling off. Rooms are large, beds are comfortable, the place was very clean. The kitchen was very well equipped with cupboards marked where everything is. The property managers are very quick to respond and were very helpful with all the Hawaiian COVID requirements, which can be confusing. The only issue we had was there was a bit of a grumpy neighbor that called security when we were just out playing a family game on the lanai. Houses are very close and the quiet hours of 9pm to 8am are strictly enforced. So great if you like peace and quiet. Perhaps too much of a restriction if you want to do anything on the lanai at night.
Kona Blue Paradise
by Michele MWe stayed two glorious weeks at the Kona blue house. It was all we had hoped it would be and a wonderful place for a family gathering with many activities at your fingertips. The weather was beautiful and the sunsets every evening are over the top. Every evening we sat out and enjoyed dinner outside and watch the sunset. The house was well stocked and clean.
What an experience
by Glenn DHaving been to the big island multiple times we were excited to stay in a home like this. It easily accommodated 10 people. The kids could walk each day to keiki ponds and swim with ease if the gorgeous pool wasn’t enough. The home was stocked with games and all the necessary items needed for a trip like this. Boogie boards and goggles and snorkels and beach chairs galore. Would love to come back to this place. Quick 3 min drive right into town for great dinners and hangs. We even found a beautiful Little Cliff jump into the ocean right in front. We are all ocean friendly and swimmers so if you aren’t this way maybe don’t do it! Especially if the tide is working. Sunsets out front were as good as any I have seen…still waiting for that perfect green flash though. 10/10 experience and easily defeats staying at a big resort! Thanks for everything. Shoots.
Great for family vacation
by Gloria AWe enjoyed our stay very much. The house is well-equipped with lots of space. We all loved the location on the water, the pool and the nearby beaches. The management company was very responsive.
We loved this property!
by Misty HOutstanding customer service and beautiful setting!
Fantastic Stay
by David SWe loved Kona Blue. The neighborhood is quiet. The houses are lovely. Our property was spacious with fantastic outdoor spaces. Kitchen well equipped. The property management team was superb. They were quick to answer any and all questions. 5 stars!!!
Great location
by Joann BWhat can I say the picture are a true example of the house. Very well set up...bedrooms are great...has many pool and ocean toys...pool is amazing.....will being staying there next year...can not wait!!!!
Kona blue is a great home and has a breath taking view from the backyard.
by Sebastian RThe location is prime. It is a short drive to the "downtown" area, 20 minute drive from beautiful beaches and walking distance to the local breweries. The house itself is massive and has ample amount of room for a large group of friends or family. There were 9 of us in total and we were not crammed at all.
Excellent view
