When you stay at Ho’o Maluhia you know you’re in paradise! The sweeping views of the Kona coast immediately sets the tone for the day. The house is beautiful and the layout is perfect for multi- generation families, friends or a couple for a romantic get away. The 2 stories with the 3 bedrooms (each having their own bathroom) is a luxury and the 2 ground floor bedrooms with patios is a bonus. The master bedroom & bathroom is amazing, large layout with many designer features and well thought out, located on the main floor. Shared living area is spacious with quality and comfortable furniture. Kitchen is open design and well stocked with a laundry room with a commercial grade washer & dryer. Honestly, we spent most of our time on the large balcony over looking the Kona coast, enjoying meals together or outside in the beautifully landscaped backyard catching some Kona sunshine or in the pool. Location is ideal. Close to downtown and easy access to main highways to explore the island. We were a multi-generation family of 6 with 2 elementary age grandsons and stayed a week. My 8 year old grandson sums up our stay…Nana you know what my favorite thing is…..the pool! Ours was the beauty of Kona right from our balcony! The booking was easy, great communication and responsive management staff. We will definitely be back!

Fixing ice maker not so much Ordered new ice maker but not replaced while we were here. Ice from store bag placed in ice bin but cubes too big to fit through the dispenser outlet. Stuck together and froze Part of ice outside the freezer melted onto floor Not a big deal
