Captain Cook hideaway
The property is nestled away from traffic yet close to the water. The apartment has ample space for three generations, as was our situation. Beds were comfortable. Food prep was easy. Snorkel supplies were available. We did not want. Catherine and Anna were available to assist as needed with dining recommendations, beaches and anything else.

Lovely spacious home with bea views of Kealakekua Bay
We had a wonderful time at Anna’s place. The kitchen is amazingly well stocked and we enjoyed many meals on the spacious lanai. Views from the upstairs open room were stunning and a great place to do yoga! Every night we walked down to Manini Beach to watch the sunset. Such a special place. Anna made us feel so welcome and was really helpful in getting us oriented. They had chairs and some snorkeling equipment that we borrowed and you can rent kayaks and paddle board right down the road to paddle to a beautiful snorkeling site near the Captain Cook monument.

Excellence in Hospitality & The Perfect Family Vacation spot!
The first thing to mention is the Hospitality that Anna provided to our family. 7 adults and 2 children felt overwhelming but Anna was quick to put our hearts at ease. This was essential for us to make our 1st ever family trip a special one. We also met Catherine who was equally as wonderful. They were both so helpful with every question we had and yet also made it feel very private for our family. The house is very spacious with lots of comfortable beds. All the ammenities a family needs. The Lanai was our favorite place to relax with room for all. Overlooking all the beauty hawaii has to offer (including an ocean view) A short walk to a community park that had everything we could hope for. Beautiful setting, snorkling, relaxing, having a picnic and enjoying the perfect hawaiin vibe. Our son proposed to his girlfriend at this park with the most beautiful sunset ever created! This place is a hidden gem!! The home is located about 30 minutes from shopping and tourist spots. And about an hour from popular beaches but this was exactly what we were looking for. There are closer beaches so be sure to check those out before deciding to do a more crowded beach. Overall the experience provided with this home and Anna's warm, kind, and thoughtful hosting was nothing short of perfection. Thank you Anna (and Catherine) for everything. We all feel like we made new friends 💗

Happy Holidays
Our family had a very pleasant 3 week stay here. The property was well-appointed for our needs. We appreciated having beach/snorkeling equipment and towels available for our use at the beautiful nearby bay, as well as coolers for hauling groceries and refreshments on road trips. There were activities and sights to enjoy on foot or by car. Our host was helpful in suggesting places to visit or picturesque places to eat, and also graciously shared with us some of the fruits and flowers found on site. Whether looking for a day to relax on a warm porch with a good book or a base camp from which to set out to explore all the sights on the island, this is the place to be. Mahalo Anna!

We had a great time! Traveling with "twenty-somethings" and not "twenty-somethings" is a challenge and the home gave us enough space that everyone could relax or socialize without feeling intrusive. Anna is a wonderful host that is quick to respond to any questions or concerns. Access to Kona or the southern point of the island was convenient from this location. Manini park and water access is just down the street and other beaches are a very short drive. Highly recommend spending vacation time here.

We had an absolutely wonderful 10 day stay at the house! It was very comfortable for our party of 8 people. The house is beautiful and has everything you need. We ate outside on the beautiful deck for every meal. All the furniture is also very nice and comfortable. Nate the caretaker and Katherine were super nice and helpful, they brought us great banana bread that Katherine made and fruit from their garden. The bay and very nice park are only a few minutes from the house. We are very happy we stayed there and love the area and would definitely stay there again!

Anna and Catherine were accommodating and communicative for our needs during our 2 week stay in Captain Cook HI. This home is a Quiet property in a near jungle setting several minutes walk to Manini beach with great views of the sunset and ingress for snorkeling. The property has an excellent Deck with secluded garden view (and visible ocean in the near distance) was our favorite spot in this home.

Amazing Hosts & Amazing Neighborhood
The hosts treated us like family. They were so gracious and kind. The location was outstanding and the views were spectacular. This is a perfect Hawaii spot where you can get the small town island feel and the neighborhood people were all so very nice as well. We loved going down to the beach in the morning to see the wildlife...so many fish, turtles, dolphins, crabs. We went in October and the water was perfectly lovely. The home was spacious for our group and we were able to host our children and grandchildren. This is a fantastic place to snorkel because of the coral and clear water. We were blessed so much by the people and the comforts. The home had everything we needed to host meals at home some of the time when we just wanted to relax. We also saw the stars and a meteor shower during our visit (for those who could stay up later ;) We had an incredible time and would definitely return here in the future. Thank you Anna & Catherine.

The house was very spacious, comfortable, and clean.
We stayed one week and it was wonderful. The location is perfect, peaceful, and away from all the hustle and bustle. Anna the homeowner and Catherine the care taker were very welcoming and accommodating. They’d left delicious bananas bread upon arrival and gave us a nice treat on departure. The house has everything that you will need. Including snorkeling gear and beach accessories. The only complaint we have is to how warm the house was but the week we were there was a big heat wave and the warmest Hawaii has been in years, but even then Anna gave us helpful hints to help keep the house a little cooler while we were gone during the day. The views and sounds of nature were amazing. The bay side is just a short 5 minute walk. My husband and I got to swim with dolphins, which was truly amazing. There were at least 20 dolphins swimming all around us. The snorkeling is also amazing. There is so many tropical fish and my husband saw a manta ray. I highly recommend this vacation home!

We deeply appreciated this beautiful location within a short walk of Manini Beach & wonderful snorkeling in Kealakekua Bay. Having snorkeling equipment & boogie boards available was an added bonus. When plumbing difficulties arose, we were grateful for the caretaker’s quick response. One surprise was that laundry facilities were not available to us (the description needs to be updated), but again the caretaker was very responsive.

Beautiful and peaceful
If you want the true QUIET, rural Hawaii experience this is the place. It was a short walk to the bay where you could snorkel, see dolphins, and relax at Manini Beach. Anna was a great host and provided us with anything we needed. There was snorkeling gear, sand toys, float tubes, and kid body boards to make the beach experience a fun one. However, the neighbors are VERY close and do not tolerate any kind of conversations outside. Our group was larger so it was a struggle to keep everyone quiet enough so the neighbors would not get angry. This is ideal for a quiet group, but I would not bring little ones to this location. Overall, we had a blast but would recommend this home to a smaller, quiet group.

Thank you for your stay. As I said before you have a loving fun good natured family. Yes, this is a quiet community. Many large group guests come here and are just fine with everyone. Mr. C has a beautiful booming voice that can be heard 2 blocks away. He and I talked about that several times. Having other family members over to have dinner is fine, who are staying at another location. Yet when one voice is loud and 8 plus kids raised their voices to be heard the sounds amplifies. Multiple times after being asked to bring your voices down several neighbors got upset. In 22 years, I have not heard volumes at this level. I built our home for my extended family our Ohana. I love to share our home with others. More people want vacations that are rejuvenating holiday in a private home in a neighborhood rather than the high prices of a hotel and eating hotel food, yet we need to remember to respect the home, property the area as well those who live here. And to be respected in return. You are good people with generous hearts and need to be honored and respected. When you are in this area again will you give me a call? I’d like to spend some time with you. sincerely Anna

We found the property to be peaceful and relaxing. Wonderful hosts, everything was easy. Well appointed kitchen and barbecue on the deck with a huge lanai.

The snorkeling and beauty of the bay was breathtaking. One of the best things about the house was the location, which felt private and not at all touristy, but it was easy to get to Kona and nearby markets and restaurants.

Perfect location for hunkering down
Vacationing during the pandemic isn't easy, but this house is great. It's secluded, yet it only takes two minutes to walk to a park/snorkeling beach, a rocky swim beach, and the launch points for kayaks/captain cook trips. The kitchen was big/equipped enough to cook for our large (14) group; the wifi reached everywhere in the house; the onsite caretaker and owner were friendly and super-helpful recommending places to see, grocery stores, and restaurants to order from. we loved the privacy. the house was cozy like it was our own home. our two weeks here flew by all too quickly. on the amazing, we're-so-glad-we-found-this-place side: 1) the snorkeling at manini beach was amazing. it's in the same kealakekua bay as captain cook, but it's two minutes away and free. 2) the waves at the rocky beach brought so much joy to our family's swim times. 3) the seclusion from other people brought us peace, and it made us feel safe during this pandemic. Three things to keep in mind as you look at this place: 1) wow, there's lots of insects in this part of hawaii. Most of them didn't bite, but it was disconcerting how they flew/crawled around us on the lanai each evening... 2) the upstairs loft area got pretty hot, and it didn't really have enough fans/cooling options.

Best place on the island
This is a paradise within a paradise. We stayed here with our family, my parents and my brother’s family and we had the best time. Each morning we would walk to the bay or wharf and swim, snorkel or just relax and enjoy the breathtaking scenery before we set out for our days adventures. We would come home to a dinner on the lanai and watch the sun set and soak in the sounds of the tropics. It is also very close to gardens, coffee plantations, a Historic National Park and so many more gems. Our hosts were gracious and brought joy to our conversations, we were immediate friends. They bring the true meaning of Aloha into the home. It was truly a beautiful place in so many ways. I can’t say enough. Thank you!

Great Hawaiian family getaway
Spacious two story property had tons of room for my mom, 4 daughters, my working husband and I. Tucked away down a windy road dotted by coffee farms and a honey farm lies this hidden gem! Short walk to picturesque Manini Beach for serious snorkelers is rugged Hawaii at its best with picnic tables, tons of coral and lava rock complete with a local friendly caretaker & amazing sunsets but wear bug spray! Also a fruit stand is walkable and short drive to Two Step snorkelers beach next to nat'l park with famous tiki statues... Painted Church and Greenwell Coffee Farm are both nearby, free and must-see! Property is adjacent to owner house and above caretaker apartment had strong wifi for my family, roomy kitchen for cooking and seating. Enjoyed plumeria, hibiscus and bright flowers all around house with lots of friendly geckos on open lanai! Lovely and accommodating hostesses on-site, shared laundry room. Fun local farmers market Sundays, and Gypsea Gelato hand makes everything delicious! This is a real-life neighborhood for an authentic Hawaiian experience not a hotel but we loved it as home-base for Volcano Nat'l Park, Black Sand Beach with turtles, Hapua and Magic Sands beaches (boogie boarding), and beyond! One week wasn't enough on Big Island. Be adventurous and live aloha like a local!

Captain Cook house review 2/27/2020 Property ID 72296
The setting is lovely, first rate, non touristy and very near a small, quiet park with picnic tables and swimming access to the ocean (no sand beach). The owner, Anna, is very helpful and attentive. The house is pleasant with a very well equipped kitchen and a large living area and lanai.  The biggest problem was noise from the construction, the building of a major addition to the house. The noise was quite disturbing during week days especially on the lanai. Anna responded by directing the noisiest construction noise to the far side of the property, but it was still noisy. This was exacerbated because many in our party spent all day at the house. The toilet situation was inconvenient at best, as only one of the two bathrooms is accessible from the main hallway, making it inconvenient for people on the third floor, and causing midnight waiting lines. The second bathroom is accessible only from in the master bedroom, making it generally inconvenient . The third floor area was very clean and neat, but consisted of one large room with 5 beds providing little privacy and was a bit noisy. All and all the beauty of the locale and most features of the house made up for the inconveniences we encountered.

I apologize again for the construction noise. I know that those who chose to stay at the house during the some of their days here because of age and mobility that this was not the best situation. I’m glad that other family members were able to enjoy themselves and venture out swimming in the bay and doing other sightseeing. After hosting guests and extended families from all over the world many requests were made for the great room to have more individual beds. So that the Great room/ 4th bedroom was made to respond to those requests. Again I deeply apologize for the construction which shouldn’t be finished by the end of March 2020. I hope to make changes In the house that will better meet the needs of those staying here. Mahalo nui loa, thank you for your feedback. Anna

Location, location- great and not so.....
Lovely gathering place to get our family of 3 adult children, with their partners and our almost 2 year old grandson. The young adults did not like the distance from places, i.e. sandy beaches, and going out. Parents loved the quiet home where we could listen to birds and frogs, and the proximity of the Kealakekua Bay and Manini Beach. Wonderful breakfast and dinners on the large lanai. Fans in every room kept the house cool enough at night, and we were off exploring for most of the days. No family vacation is without its low points, but all in all, a wonderful tropical treat. Anna was so helpful, as we did not arrive to Kona until 1015 at night, with milk and coffee and pineapple with banana bread for breakfast, and had lots of beach toys. We would come back.

Mahalo Judy and Steve. You have a wonderful family. I’m glad you enjoyed Kealakekua Bay. Many people come here From all over the world to take advantage of not having to get into the car to jump into the water for a swim and snorkeling with dolphins In the bay. I just saw a spotted manta ray playing close to shore, and a mother and baby whale spouting near the Captain Cook monument. We love being away from the bustle of town in our magical tropical setting, yet close enough to zip in when we want to. A hui hou ...You are always welcome to return Malama pono. Take care Anna
