This view is gorgeous. The house was very comfortable for our multigenerational large group. We really enjoyed the open air ability to open the back wall and the pool was great to have! There was not an outdoor shower, but everything else was great. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds comfortable. Being directly on the rocks was so cool. All in all amazing place to be right in the middle of Kona and 5 minutes to beaches and restaurants. The house is walkable, but easier with cars.

Was the perfect place for our family of 13 to gather and celebrate my husband’s retirement. The sunsets, ocean views and spacious room within the house made for a most enjoyable stay. We really appreciated the AC in the bedrooms. Convenient location to nearby sites. Thank you for making our trip so memorable.

The constant sound of ocean waves, spectacular sunsets, spinner dolphins swimming by, and humpback whales spouting, all from the comforts of your open air living room, made this the best VRBO ever! Accommodated our 17 guests in comfort.

Perfect set up for two families with teens. Mornings on the porch sipping Kona coffee were priceless. We also loved the private snorkeling spot right in front of the house. Use the large flat rock for entry 🌊 We can’t wait to visit again!

We really enjoyed the property. The pictures were somewhat misleading for the size of the parking area and the pool. There were 14 of us and enough hot water was the only issue after a day at the beach and everyone needing to take a shower. We loved our trip!!

A family celebration
We had a wonderful stay at Dolphin Manor, the views are amazing night and day. The outside living area is compact but adequate for the 12 of us. especially with the doors that open to the lanai from the living room. Lots of restaurants and shopping within walking distance since parking is expensive and tight.

This property was perfect for our family of 11. Most in Hawaii for the first time. It was worth every penny to stay in beautiful Dolphin Manor. We loved being all together enjoying the shared spaces, especially the lanai which was very safe for our youngest grandson of 19 months. Plenty of bedrooms, most with a view of the ocean and very nice spacious bathrooms. We made wonderful memories on this trip of a lifetime!

Perfect Location
This is the perfect location for your stay in Kona! Dolphin Manor was within a 15 minute walk of downtown Kona and a 30 minute drive of five different beaches that we explored. During our stay, we also were able to drive to the north point of the island to visit Havi and Akaka Falls.
In addition to the perfect location, this home has every amenity you could need during your stay. Just show up and have a great week! There is an awesome kitchen, which we used every day on our long stay over Thanksgiving. All of the cooking utensils and amenities were present. We also enjoyed fantastic sunsets every night from the soaking pool and back area. We recommend this property to anyone traveling to the big island. A fantastic home away from home.
Love, love, love.

Best family vacation to date
My boys and I have been going away every summer for over 10 years. We meet up with my brothers and their families in different states. This summer it was Hawaii at the Dolphin Manor and I said to the kids, "I don't think we will ever be able to top this place." The kitchen is my dream kitchen and was stocked with sharp knives and top-of-the-line pots, pans, dishes, and any kitchen gadget you could think of - rice cookers, coffee/teapots, blenders, grinders etc. But it was "nature bathing" for tired souls from the east coast that got me - ocean therapy each morning, sunsets each evening, walks to town, etc was perfect. Thank you for a memory that will last a lifetime.

If I could give the house 10 stars I would! We will be back!
First let me start off by saying we have been to Kona many times and each time we rent a home so the whole family can enjoy and reunite. Typically when we do so a few of the family members draw the short straw with a tiny dated bedroom, not with this house! The bedrooms are spacious, well equipped and most of them feature an incredible ocean view! Not to mention that they all have independently controlled air conditioning and attached bathrooms!
Our favorite part of the home was the location, it was close to everything we visited. Especially restaurants, we walked to Huggos on the Rocks and it was less than 10 minutes away! We especially loved the back "Lanai" to BBQ and watching the kids playing in the pool was amazing. The parents were able to take turns keeping an eye on the kids while the others enjoyed Moscow Mules with the provided copper cups!
On the days we stayed home and prepared meals at the property we were happily surprised to find a very well stocked kitchen and ample space for 5 of us to participate in meal preparation. Lastly as I mentioned we've stayed in a number of places on the Island and found this home to be the cleanest of the lot which was greatly appreciated!

Stay away!
We had booked this house & given them the deposit. Months later the owners realized the Kona Ironman had been moved to a different weekend and cancelled our reservation. They then re-listed for an insane amount of money & decided to price gouge. We knew a rental would be expensive for IM weekend, but the new amount was outrageous. VRBO said the owners aren't supposed to do that and they'll make a note to reprimand them (I'm sure they care). So FYI if you're ever looking to book through VRBO, know having a reservation and deposit means nothing & it can be canceled on a whim. I would stay far away from this homeowner because who knows when they'll pull this crap again. Don't say you weren't warned. We were just going to badmouth VRBO & the homeowner to friends but they asked us for a review on how our stay was, so here we are.

I will address each problem separately. First, realize 3 of our party were healthcare professionals and ALL 8 of us travel extensively and rent high-end VRBOsand 5 star housing and stay at 5 star hotels. We are SEASONED TRAVELER1) All of the areas of the house that were made of wood - especially the laundry room was RIDDLED WITH TERMITES! The inside of the house was clean and maintained, but it was really disconcerting to see the window area in the laundry room full of termites! 2) The sink fixtures in the bedroom sink were deteriorating and the knobs fell off of the sink in my bedroom repeatedly. 3) The furniture was "resting" at best. They looked dirty. 4) The TV in my bedroom did not work. 5) My bedroom had one chair - none by the work area.6) The road noise was HORRIBLE even late at night. Young drivers playing their boom box sound systems at full blare. The bedrooms on the road side were unpleasant because of the traffic noise. It was not "soothing."7) There was head lice in the pillows in one bedroom. Luckily it was a former hair stylist and 3 healthcare professionals that identified the problem and the two people in that bedroom had to pay 30 each for the head treatment! We did NOT stay at any other property during this visit to KONA.8) One of the bedroom (Room 1) had an unpleasant odor in the bathroom (almost like garbage).Although the kitchen and laundry machines were updated and great, it did NOT make the overall experience so disappointing.

Great location Amazing sunsets
This beautiful home a little over 1 mile to downtown Kailua Kona was chosen for our annual family gathering- this year 12 of us. Pros: It was perfect for walks to the beach (Kailua Bay) and town, running along Ali’i drive, and picking up groceries. The 5 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms provided great private space. The views oceanfront were gorgeous, ocean sounds, sunsets, sighting spinner dolphins. Our family enjoyed searching the tidal pools. Kitchen was roomy and we had yummy meals.
Cons: the home did not level up to 5 stars due to details and expectations that were unmet.
In the kitchen there was a broken cork screw opener, the coffee maker was quite awkward- took awhile to figure out that you had to reload a small white gizmo to make it functional, a separate ice maker with no directions that we never did figure out. (Fortunately there was ice maker in refrigerator). To our surprise there was NO Salt and Pepper, common items to have available… a Keurig coffee maker with no complimentary pods.. The outside grill had broken starter and required manual start with igniter. It seemed odd that in house directions received before check-in we were advised that there would only be cleaning items to last 3 days. Also it was felt Agency “over managed “ with directives, yet fell short with follow through At check in we needed to call for house code which had not been provided. For a house accommodating 12, hot tub very small (2 people)..Overall, we had a great time!

Beautiful comfortable home
Ample space for adults, toddlers and teens. Clean. Great views right off the ocean. Kitchen had every appliance we needed with lots of frig. space. Double washer & dryer made it easy to keep beach towels and clothes clean. Easy access to trolley to tour downtown shops and access the beach. Ideal spot for large family gathering. Pool not as big as I thought but turned out ok since we had little ones
