Are you traveling to Hawaii Island and looking for a great place to stay? I have friends with vacation condos and homes that would love to connect with you directly to save AirBnB and VRBO fees and pass those savings on to you! If you found this page through my work on "365 Things to Do in Kona" on Facebook, these owners are fellow Big Island devotees and I can attest to their love of this island, Aloha Spirit and hospitality in their homes.
Instead of getting lost looking for a place to stay on the "big sites", support the 365Kona hui of vacation property owners and check out these properties based on where you would like to stay on the island! Mahalo!

Oceanfront Home Overlooking Kahala'u Bay
Hale Lula O' Nai'a at Kahala'u Bay
Average price per night: $500
Have you ever wanted the quintessential ocean front vacation experience complete with swinging under a palm tree while waves crash nearby? We had a chance to stay in this gorgeous home for four days and I did not want to leave!
Waking up to the sun coming over the waves and watching the sunset in the evening on the lanai while sipping a glass of chardonnay was heaven. Take a look at the video and you can check availability at www.VRBO.com/987045
