Big Island Green Sands House

You’ve found it here, on the southern shores of Hawaii. Live amongst the locals & experience authentic Aloha spirits.

Natural Green Sand Beach is down the road. Giant turtle nests nearby on a Black Sand Park. Hawaii’s pristine coastlines, water falls & an active volcano beckons your inner explorer.

Great Property
The property was very nice and in the perfect location for our needs. The only issue we had was the guest bed was not comfortable and thought to be very old or poor quality.

Well appointed home in an excellent Location
Very clean and beautiful modern home. Well designed with high ceilings, an open living area and a large well equipped kitchen. It is located in a beautiful location between Kona and Hilo. Easy access to the main Highway made it easy to visit nearby attractions like the famous Naalehu Bakery and Black Sand Beach as well as the Volcano National Park, and many parks,hikes, and beaches near Kona and Hilo. Excellent Value! Mahalo

Amazing property!
House had a great open floor plan in the living spaces and private sleeping areas. Kitchen was well equipped, and we loved the back porch to get morning breeze while sipping on coffee. Very convenient location to all the attractions around the area. Very clean home!! Thank You!!

The house was great and we had 7 of us. We fit comfortably and everything we need was there. Nice quiet neighborhood. We had to drive awhile to get to our activities, but it was well worth it. Communication was amazing when we had a few questions - reply was prompt.

Good stay
Quiet location. Modern, clean accommodation. The security seemed a bit over the top but one gets used to it and it wasn’t a hindrance. For frequent Hawai’i travelers, you will be glad to know that the area is not rooster-heavy… but there are coqui frogs.

Smartes Haus mit sehr gut ausgestatteter Küche
Neues Haus, sehr gepflegt, sorgfältiger Umgang wird erwartet und durch klare Regeln festgeschrieben. Viel Kontrolle durch Ring-Sicherheitsysteme, es blinkt und klingelt ziemlich viel. Eigentümer wollen das zukünftig etwas reduzieren. Garten ist noch nicht angelegt, Überdachte Terrasse etwas klein für 5 und mehr Personen. Discovery Harbour liegt nah an vielen landschaftlichen Attraktionen der Insel, ist zumindest im Frühjahr aber sehr regenreich. Selbstversorgung dank toller Küche sehr gut zu realisieren! Vermieterin freundlich, zuverlässig und hilfsbereit. Meldet sich bei jeder Frage umgehend zurück.
