Beautiful Ocean Views 5 Bedroom Sleeps 14 Walk to Beach, Pool, AC, & Game room

The "Akai Beach House" is a beautiful 5 bedroom 4 bath home that sleeps 14 with ocean views, a pool, air conditioning and a large game room in the garage. Enjoy ping pong and foosball, or relax on the couch and watch TV in the game room. Magic Sands Beach - the best sandy beach in Kona - is an easy 5 minute walk from home offering swimming, sunbathing, boogie boarding and beach volleyball. (Note: Magic Sands Beach gets it's name from the fact that if there are large storms/waves the sand may disappear from time to time and then comes back.) The home has two full kitchens, one upstairs and one downstairs with two separate living rooms. It is like renting a full 3 bedroom and another full 2 bedroom house.
Perfect for multi-family and/or a multi-generational stay. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, full kitchen and living room. Downstairs, there are 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen and living room. There is a washer/dryer both upstairs and downstairs. 4 bedrooms have spacious California King sized beds and one has a queen. Additionally, there are two double/queen sized futon couches in the upstairs living room. Further, we offer several padded cots for guests to use throughout the home. Great ocean views and sunsets from the upstairs living room, dining room, bedrooms and pool. Watch the sunset while lounging around the pool! Pool has a nice deck area with a bbq for family cookouts. Great snorkeling and surfing are only a half mile away at Kahaluu Bay, just south of our home. Vast shopping and dining options are only 2 miles away at downtown Kailua-Kona to the North and 1.5 miles from the Keauhou Shopping center to the South. Accordingly, you can quickly access grocery stores and places to eat. You also can walk to Magics Grill (at Magic Sands Beach) for cocktails and dinner, with amazing ocean views. The house has ample parking and is located on a quiet street. We have plenty of beach toys such as boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels, and a wagon etc... for guests to enjoy. The house was remodeled in October 2022 with new flooring, AC, interior paint and many new furnishings.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a private pool and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as an outdoor pool or take in the view from a garden. This vacation home also features an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

Great Stay

House was great for family of 12. Very clean, spacious rooms, nice to have two kitchens. The layout was a little awkward at first with both downstairs bedrooms having attached bathrooms and the two teens sleeping in cots had to go into the others’ bedrooms for the bathroom or walk up the outside stairs to get to the one upper floor general bathroom (there is also a bathroom in the upstairs primary bedroom). Once we figured it out we made it work. The kitchen and outside tables both sat all 12 of us which was nice. The house is very well equipped with lots of laundry detergent, dishwasher tabs, dish soap, paper towels and toilet paper. Lots of towels too. A couple minor issues were responded to quickly. Great location - close walk to the beach and tons of beach supplies in the garage including water shoes and lots of snorkeling stuff. There were no games as described in the ad - only puzzles. We ended up buying a game at a thrift store and left it there for others to enjoy. A great stay overall!

Spectacular 70th bday family Vacation

Jeff,Thank you for making your Akai home.PROS:• The write up you provided in advance of the rental was great. It helped set expectations, shared valuable info about the property, nearby activities, stores, restaurants, etc. It also made clear what we needed to do pre-checkout.• We LOVED the proximity to the beach. We enjoyed daily excursions to the beach and watching melting sunsets. • Kitchen provisions were excellent once we addressed the absence of pans. We never really wanted for a pot, utensil, plateware, or flatware. • The pool was delightful. • Having an abundance of beach towels handy was also a nice touch. It helped keep little ones warm whenever they came out of the water.• For those of us that snorkel, having snorkel equipment available to use was terrific. We couldn’t justify packing it in our luggage.The beach chairs were great, as well as the assortment of boogie boards.• The high chair and cots, and porta crib were incredibly handy. We also noted but did not need the small inventory of diapers in the upstairs laundry room. Again nice touch.Loved every moment of our 8 night stay.

Family Vacation

Overall the vacation was amazing....the house, the location and everything in-between.When I began searching for a vacation home for our family of nine, I encountered some challenges. Initially, I attempted to book a smaller home, believing it would suffice. However, due to Hawaii laws, I was informed that I needed to book a home that could accommodate all nine of us. After continued searching, I discovered the Beautiful Ocean Views 5 Bedroom Sleeps 14 home and proceeded with the booking.Upon reviewing the charges, I noticed a 500 USD (over 700 Canadian) fee for an additional guest, despite booking for only nine guests in a property that accommodates up to fourteen. The property details did not indicate any fees for more than eight guests, which I found misleading. I believe such information should be clearly included in the property details.After contacting the host, I received the following response:Our house, like most in the Kona area, has a base rate that applies for up to 8 guests. After that, we have an extra guest fee of 50/night per guest over 8 with a maximum of 14. That amount was listed in the quote you reviewed prior to when you requested to book.While I understand and respect local laws, I maintain that this crucial detail should have been explicitly stated in the property description.Regards,

Hawaii Getaway

My family (7 total) and I booked this house for a family beach vacation. The home was absolutely perfect for our needs. The owners are very responsive. Instructions are clear and easy to follow. The home is stocked with anything you would need (outside of food). There were extra pillows and blankets, tons of beach accessories, coolers, chairs, etc. We all loved this rental and would absolutely stay here again if given the chance. You will not request this stay! The only advice is if you are booking this for the beach just know that in the winter there isn’t a lot of sand at the beach. It wasn’t a deal breaker for us as there are a lot of little coves to snorkel in around the town.

Thanksgiving in Kona

We were a group of nine staying at the property over Thanksgiving. One daughter and our three grandsons occupied the lower space, which provided them (and us) a nice separation. We gathered for meals and games in the upper living space. The pool was a huge hit with the boys. ( and adults). We made several walks to Magic Sand Beach and drove to a few other favorite Kona beaches. We all had a great time and the house worked perfect for us.

Pleasant vacation stay

We enjoyed our first time in the big island with our family of 8. We enjoyed the large space here. There were plenty of furniture to accommodate everyone. It was a plus having 3 bedrooms with its own bathroom. Occasionally we were welcomed by little geckos which our toddler loved to look at. The outdoor space is beautiful and our family got to enjoy the pool and hang out at the poolside. It was convenient two kitchens and washers and dryers on both the first and second level. We were overall pleased with our stay here.

House worked great

This house was great for me and my family of 11. You need to be aware that there are no indoor steps that go to the basement, you have to go outside for that, but it's very easy to do and it actually worked great for our family of six to stay down there and the rest of us were in the bedrooms upstairs and we all use the same kitchen upstairs. That was the only thing I wish I would've seen in the description before my rental. The washer on the first floor did not work and he said twice someone was coming and they did not show up so we were without a washer on the first floor all week, which was kind of discouraging with 11 people. Other than that, it was an excellent location. The house was very nice, the pool was fabulous and worked out well. The grill was nice clean and ready to use, and I would definitely rent this house again.
