What a beautiful little slice of heaven! So well appointed and clean! We were so appreciative of all the little touches. The welcome book and all the recommendations were so helpful. I would definitely recommend a stay with Tiffany at the Salty Mermaid! My family can’t wait to return again.

Our stay was very relaxing. The kitchen had plenty of utensils to cook if you were staying there long. It was great having both Keurig & Mr Coffee machines so you could take advantage of local coffee sold everywhere. The master bed was very comfortable! Loved sitting out on lanai for drinks and sunset.

Tiffany, thank you very much for offering your house for us to stay and use as our home base as we explored the beautiful island of Hawaii. We took some of your recommendations and got a great feel for the island! The Keauhou farmers market and Ho'oulu market (both just a couple minutes down the road) were very special! You have a beautiful place, and we're thankful once again that you let us in!

Tiffany gave us recommendations for our family to explore during our stay that made the trip so much more memorable. Shop at the Farmers Markets, you will not be disappointed. The home has a very well equipped kitchen, grill space, beautiful patio area and walkway to the pool, beds are comfortable. This home is a islanders home so be aware A/C and Central A/C are not the same. Grateful to live the island way with a few comforts of home.

Meet the Host

Aloha! Nice to "meet" you! I know that you will have a fabulous time in this sweet little coastal village of Kailua-Kona. As avid traveler myself, I have stocked the condo with all the essentials you will need for a comfortable stay. I am a lifelong Alaskan who loves to travel to Hawai'i. It's been a dream of mine for a long time to own a place in Hawai'i and because of the opportunity to rent it and share the beauty of the islands with others like you, I can! Mahalo for your business, I sincerely hope your stay with us is the paradise you're looking for.

Notes
1. OCEAN view AND golf course view right over the 8th green - VERY rare! Watch the golfers go by during the day, and take in the breathtaking Hawaiian sunsets at night, all from the comfort of your own ground-floor lanai.
2. One of the largest two bedroom units you’ll find in Kona at 1,200sf!
3. California King in master suite - you’ll sleep like a teenager.
4. Memory foam queen in guest room - REALLY comfortable!
5. Pull out couch for two additional kids, if needed (4 adults max allowed).
6. Coastal-Beach décor unlike any other - light, airy, and modern! You’ll love the beachy feel during your stay here.
7. You can grill right on your own lanai. So convenient! Most complexes have separate, common BBQ areas you’re required to use.
8. Ground floor (below ground) unit does not have A/C but stays quite cool, and has excellent airflow with a ceiling fan in every room. There is virtually no road noise - very quiet and tranquil. Find your inner peace.
9. Chef’s kitchen, fully stocked, and newly remodeled with new KitchenAid appliances. Bring your favorite Keurig cups, we provide the machine!
10. Spacious walk in closet in the master en suite for all your gear.
11. Several toys included for your use: beach chairs, beach towels, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, beach umbrella, soft side insulated cooler.
12. World-class Hapuna Beach is close! Consistently rated by Conde Nast Traveler magazine as one of the best beaches in the nation! We can vouch for the rich turquoise blue, calm, clear waters, super fine, soft sand and clean facilities. There are fresh water showers, restrooms, clean picnic areas, and a volleyball net. Lots of people enjoy this beach, but it’s not overly crowded. Only about a 30 minute beautiful, scenic drive. There are other beaches closer for your convenience, but we highly recommend you visit this one at least once on your trip. It’s a “must-do” in our book.
13. Snorkeling. So much amazing snorkeling very near by.
14. Sheraton Kona Resort’s HOOLA SPA is a short walk away. “Hoola” means “to heal” in Hawaiian. Treat yourself! You deserve it. Call (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) to schedule your time for peace and relaxation with specialized Hawaiian treatments, some in the open air, listening to ocean waves in the background. Pure bliss and luxury. (WE INCLUDE A SPA GIFT CERTIFICATE IN YOUR PACKAGE. THIS IS “MAKANA” - OUR GIFT TO YOU.)
15. Sheraton Kona Resort hosts the Haleo Luau Dinner and Show. Watch the graceful hula dancers, the fast-moving Tahitian dancers, and the spectacular fire dancers, outdoors under the stars on Monday and Friday evenings.
16. Sheraton Kona Resort also offers a very cool Manta Ray Viewing Experience - see and swim with these gentle giants of the bay. It will surely be the experience of a lifetime.
17. Kona Country Club is a short walk away - one of the islands premier golf experiences! This championship course has been ranked a “Top 100 Greatest Public Course” by Golf Digest. The only natural obstacles are the turquoise blue waters and lava rocks. Golf for Women magazine, ESPN, and ZAGAT Guide recognizes this course as one of nation's top golf facilities and it also has a rating of "excellent" as voted by players in America's top golf courses. Call (Phone number hidden by Airbnb) to reserve your tee time.
18. The charming seaside town of Kona with the boutique shopping, adorable trolley to take you from place to place (can be caught just a short walk from Keauhou Punahele condos), and many fishing, snorkeling, cruising, volcano hiking adventures await!
19. Three hundred fifty days of sunshine average a year! That’s right, chances are GREAT you’ll have sunshine and warm days on the “gold coast” - exactly what you want while visiting the islands. In fact, Kona boasts the most perfect vacation weather of all the islands!
20. Grocery store, movie theater, and hospital all nearby for necessities, fun, and peace of mind.

Note: A $75 charge assessed for early check-in or late check-out, and only when available. Please message the owner to check availability and gain approval. Mahalo.
