Conveniently located, hosts are delightful, fresh fruit and eggs each morning, takes a night or two to get use to coqui frogs singing. Rural feel to location. Close to our favorite snorkeling and breakfast spots.

If you’re looking for a home away from home that’s just 10 minutes from the best snorkeling, you have found the place. We were greeted by Tina and Keri with fresh eggs, papayas, avocados and bananas and coffee straight from their land. Everything is authentic, especially the kindness and care they bring, including the best muffins and cake and expert knowledge of where to snorkel. Their library of guidebooks on nature, hiking, and travel were awesome, as well as every possible thing you might need, including coats to use for a trip to the volcano. This area, South Kona, is a special place to relax and enjoy Kona coffee, and adventures with a rainbow of fish. A big Mahalo to Tina and Keri for a trip of a life time.

True Big Island Spirit

We loved this place that is tucked in on the west facing side with coffee, macadamia, avocado trees amongst other beautiful trees and flowers. So convenient to the beaches, snorkeling, volcano park, and not too far to get supplies or great food. Our hosts Tina and Keri were amazing. Fresh baked muffins (delicious), fresh eggs and fruit grown on their property. A perfect home base away from the crowds in Kona. A big thank you to Tina and Keri. Hope to see you again soon . Our granddaughter loved hanging with the cats and chickens every day and chatting up our hosts every morning. Mahalo

Clean, large, beautiful view, kind hosts

This is our second time in Big Island. We knew we want to stay around Captain Cook area because we like to snorkel. We didn’t expect being greeted with the most delicious banana muffins. In addition, Keri and Tina generously share their fruits and eggs from the garden. The animals were all so cute and welcoming (yes including the geckos) - part of the package😊. We had two teen boys with us and the unit are big enough for all of us doing our school and work (at times) at separate spaces. Gratefully yours, CKMW

A wonderful place to stay

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay on the Big Island. Appreciated all the thoughtful things you did, like leaving fresh fruit and delicious homemade muffins for our arrival! What a treat to taste the hand-picked fresh fruits grown on your property. It really made us feel welcome, especially with the late arrival and being pretty hungry after the trip. Nothing like a fresh taste of the island and the sound of the frogs outside, to let you know you've arrived! Plus, great directions, so we were able to find you even in the dark - also love the little lights outside guiding us to your place every time. Your suggestions for where we could find things and looking into the Manta Ray booking on our behalf, really saved us time and made our holiday so much more enjoyable. Loved the binder that you put together with restaurant and beach suggestions. Thank you for being great hosts and making our visit fantastic!

Came as strangers and left feeling like family. Tina and Keri are absolutely amazing hosts. Not only do they share their little piece of paradise but they also spoil you with fresh homemade muffins, fresh fruit from their property and eggs from their lovely chickens! Everything you could need was provided- chairs, cooler, umbrellas, towels etc! They had many guidebooks to help you find the best beaches, hikes etc. and were often around to answer any questions or give tips on where to go. We also enjoyed hanging out and getting to know them. Hawaii keeps calling us back and now we have a home away from home to go to! We can’t wait to return!

Friendly, beautiful, serene

Owners welcome is incredible. The home and view are very nice and comfy. We didn’t use the outdoor hot cooking facilities, but had everything we needed for our brief stay. Surprise of homemade muffins, fruit and coffee breakfast was delightful! We were close to amazing snorkeling, and easy access to Kona if/when we wanted. We spent three nights in the Lanai accommodation. - perfect for two. We would definitely book again.

Tina and Keri are gracious hosts, and we appreciated the homey feel of the place. The property information on the listing is accurate and there were no surprises. I recommend spot if you are looking for simplicity, a laid back feel and excellent proximity to many fun things to do! Fresh fruit, yummy muffins and fresh eggs are an appreciated touch as well!

Super clean unit Ultra comfy bed and pillows The host was ultra-sympathic, avalaible and helpful The cats, dogs and chickens were pretty cool as well Muffins were just EPIC !!! The location of this place makes it a really nice spot to relax at the end of your daily activities. We stayed there 2 weeks. We went to many beaches, the volcano, the Mauna Kea Summit and we played golf a lot. We enjoyed coming back before the sunset and relax outside on the lanai and admiring the view. 5 stars says it all !!!

It’s true what others said about the amazing warm homemade muffins and generous fruit platter greeting.

Our second visit to South Kona Hideaway!

A wonderful place to stay! This is our second visit, and it was just as good as we remembered! Tina and Keri have thought of everything you might need and provided it for your use. Immaculately clean, charming and cozy, and the sleep number beds are so comfortable! We got special enjoyment from the chickens strutting around the property and from one of the cats who seemed to know that our long stay had us missing our cats at home. The proximity to Two Step, where you can find some of the island's best snorkeling make this location, nestled among the fruit and coffee trees, just perfect! We'll be back!

Paradise Retreat - South Kona

South Kona Hideaway is truly a paradise retreat. From the start, we were greeted with the most delicious homemade muffins and a fruit plate picked fresh from the surrounding garden. The lanai apartment was spacious, bright, and thoughtfully filled with amenities. Our hosts truly made us feel the Ohana spirit. It was here that we could lounge on the deck, facing the ocean sunset, and not regret skipping a day of tourist sites. Situated in the Captain Cook coffee coast region, it’s close enough to the town attractions & beaches, and far enough to embrace the quiet and friendly neighborhood. And as much as we want to keep this gem our secret, we can’t help but rave about our stay and how much we look forward to returning.
