Kona Cliff House at Pebble Beach - a romantic getaway!

Kona Cliff House at Pebble Beach is a romantic getaway & perfect for all things ocean! Spectacular coastal views from every room in this fully remodeled penthouse. New custom gourmet kitchen stocked with your master chef needs.

Location absolutely does make a difference! Many claim 180 degree views yet few are like the Kona Cliff House located in Kona Paradise Community in South Kona, Captain Cook.

Our home is away from the crowds, is a coveted area for snorkelers, divers, paddlers and kayakers! Watch dolphins and whales right from the lanai. 37 miles/ 1 hour from Airport.

You will truly enjoy the 180-degree ocean views, ancient walls of the King's trail and watching the whales and dolphins from the home’s expansive Lanai. Pebble beach a few blocks below the house is a favorite of the local Hawaiian's because of its abundant sea life, wild ocean experience and ever changing pebble shore.

This quiet ocean community is away from the tourist crowds and is a very central location to some of the most visited attractions on the Big Island. Near mile marker 97 in Captain Cook, it is 25 miles from Kona Alli Drive, a few miles from Place of Refuge, Captain Cook Monument Bay, and Honaunau Beach and only 50 miles to Volcano National Park.

The entire Kona Cliff House at Pebble Beach will be yours to enjoy. It attracts athletic types who enjoy its secure gated location, fully fenced yard and up 4 flights of stairs (70 steps) to a terraced garden of Plumeria and Palm Trees, Jade plants, Orchids and Hibiscus flowers to an ocean experience one never forgets! We are happy to share it with our guests. We put a lot of love and care in keeping the property updated, and nice and clean.

Wifi, Hulu and Netflix included as well as a outdoor shower to rinse off from the beach.

Beautiful, up to date, and relaxing home in Kona Paradise
Keith and Kelly have done a great job with their home. Everything is meticulous and up todate. Their attention to detail is amazing. As a health care professional, it is very important for me that everything is just perfect, this place is such. The kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living room, kitchen amenities, and the home is located on the sea level where it is nice and cool. Private Pebble beach is just a couple blocks down the ocean. The view is stunning. This place is very priovate. The sun set is beautiful. My wife loves to sit on the hammock and view the open ocean that streches as far as the eye can see.

Quiet spot to relax and enjoy the Big Island
This home with a stunning view is great for a quiet, relaxing trip. We found everything was as advertised, from the 75 steps up to the house to the beach amenities provided. The location is a good distance from grocery stores and restaurants so stock up on food (no need for bottled water, the filtered water tastes great). The kitchen was really well stocked and there were plenty of helpful conveniences, from reusable grocery bags and a cooler to water bottles and trash bags. Fans made the temperature comfortable, and the shades darken the bedroom so you can sleep in. The lanai has a dining table, comfy chairs, a hammock and a nice Weber grill. Behind the house at ground level is a private outside shower and access to laundry. Pebbles Beach is just down the hill (but it is steep so you may want to drive), and from there you can walk to a quiet black sand beach. We saw spinner dolphins from the lanai in June. Be on the look for mosquitos when sitting outside. The location seemed to be sheltered from some of the clouds and rain that pass over the island. We appreciated the thoughtfulness of the hosts in providing everything we needed to enjoy our visit

Delightful & Comfortable House
Keith & Kelly’s Cliff House, Hale Pali was a comfy spacious home for our 12 day Big Island vacation. The beautiful sunsets from the large lani, the well appointed spotless kitchen and bbq, washer & dryer, walk in closet, open comfortable living room and dining area and bar style counter all made for a home away from home. Kelly was super available and communicative. This is a gem. Thanks guys for a great place!

Absolutely Perf
We have used Home Away/VRBO throughout the US and Europe for 15 years or so. Almost always with kiddos afoot. Our trip to Hawai’i Island for my husband and I was cancelled twice due to unforeseen events. But it was worth the wait. The first 5 days on Hawai’i Island was spent at this incredible property. We fell in love with this area south Kona…this property….and this neighborhood. It fit us perfectly. A few recommendations that are not the usual in tour books - plan a day when you do not leave the neighborhood. Take advantage of your immediate surroundings, including Pebbles beach, a hidden black sands beach, the lanai, paradise :) - back into the carport. The close neighbor will appreciate it. - Always have dinner at the house! It’s the best freakin’ view for dinner anywhere on the west side of the island. - when driving into Kona Paradise, on the first turn, if you see a sign that says “fresh fish” buy it immediately. - Do a Kona coffee tour - buy what you can at fruit/vege stands - visit the local beaches. Swim swim swim in these beautiful waters. - Most importantly, respect the Hawaiians and long time residents. That is my guiding rule wherever we travel. Do not act like a privileged traveler. Do not sweat the small inconveniences that may or may not arise. Ask questions that allow you to really listen and learn from from those around you.

Wonderful House!
We enjoyed are stay at the Kona Cliff House. The house was clean and very well maintained. Beautiful view of the ocean and we enjoyed the sunsets at night. Our only recommendation is to rent a Jeep for touring the island. we would definitely return to this house. We loved the adventures of the island and to relax at the house afterwards. Thank you for sharing your house!

This property has wonderful views, is very clean, comfortable and quiet. We ate in every night during our stay to be there. Pebbles beach just down the road kept us in awe during some big swells and a coastal hike just off the beach we’re a huge bonus. Thank you Kelly for sharing your property!

A steep drive down with many switchbacks, but you get used to it! Quiet with a beautiful view that makes the property truly charming. The dining options nearby are not great, so plan on grabbing some nice steaks or fish and doing your own cooking, but that just makes this getaway special. Get it for the two of you and enjoy each other's company (and the view) and just relax!

We really enjoyed this house, view and stay. It was very comfortable and well set up. We lived on the large lanai watching the ocean or close by on the beaches snorkeling. It is way far out from Kona, good eateries and bars. Go prepared to isolate.

This is a place to relax and enjoy a stunning view of the coast. Bed was so comfortable and it was very quiet at night. waking up each morning to the bird songs was heaven! Kitchen was the best equipped we have ever seen. Steps as mentioned are a workout!. Know that this remoteness requires a about a 30 minute drive each way to any services and you're are 45 munites each way to Kona.

Amazing rental house
The views from this home are incredible. Close to a pebble beach that is never crowded so perfect to pack up a picnic and spend a day lounging. The house itself is prestine and perfect for a couples getaway. Has just about everything you need. Their are small stores nearby but definitely stock up on essentials. Great small local restaurants also arent too far. Only thing is the stairs to get up to the house from the car port are no joke, so pack lightly if you can. My husband and I are pretty decent shape, but it got us the first few times! :) Also the driveway and road to the house are steep so if you're renting a car low to the ground be careful. We had a jeep and were very happy about it. All in all we consider it a top 3 in houses ever rented. The communication with the owners was also fabulous which is helpful. They were available to help us with questions when needed before and during the stay. Can't wait to come back!

Exquisite !
The Kona Cliff House offers a terrific step workout - no need for Peloton at this location ! Well appointed perch with expansive (and seductive) ocean view. Fully equipped house with painstaking attention given to assure maximum comfort. Outdoor shower and full laundry room on lower level is a big plus. Friendly neighbors. We look forward to a return visit. Mahalo Keith & Kelly !

EXCELLENT Stay at the Kona Cliff House!!!
We greatly enjoyed our time at the gorgeous Kona Cliff House! The house itself was absolutely delightful and the 180* panorama view from the lanai was spectacular! The house is exactly as described and shown in the photos. Beautiful Pebble Beach is just a short walk or drive down the safe and quiet street. During our week long stay, we traveled throughout the entire island and access to and from the house was perfect. We plan to return to the Big Island and when we do, we hope to stay at the Kona Cliff House again!

Wonderful time
The pictures of this property were right on. The house had everything we needed. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the appliances and utensils you could want. The bed was comfortable and the cross breezes kept it cool. But the part we will miss the most is the view. I can’t describe the beauty. And yes, we did see whales. We snorkeled at Two Step just about every day and it’s a 20 minute drive. Lots of fish, turtles and dolphins. The neighborhood was very quiet. If you are looking for a place to unplug and not be in the middle of the tourist scene, this is the place for you! Thank you Kelly and Keith for sharing your vacation home with us,

Elegant house; wonderful view.
We loved our days at the Cliff House - so beautiful to be up on the cliff looking out over the sea. The house itself is every bit as lovely as the photos suggest and was wonderfully equipped in the kitchen. Other than a drive down to South Point, we didn't do much touring around the island - it was just too much fun to be cozy in this house and watch the weather come and go. I appreciated the efficiency with which we got directions to the house, how to get in, and what to do when we left. We never did meet the owners, but had no problems.
