Charming Tropical Hideaway, Best Snorkeling, Pool, Hot Tub

Tropical Hideaway is a charming Hawaii-style downstairs studio apartment in a lush garden setting, with ocean and sunset views, plus a chemical-free swimming pool with waterfall and private hot tub. Tropical Hideaway is just a three minute drive from fabulous snorkeling, kayaking, and diving experiences at Honaunau (Two Step), and close to Kealakekua Bay & Ho'okena Bay. Recently upgraded.

The beautifully landscaped garden is filled with mango, papaya, banana, likikoi, lemons, pineapple, figs, limes and other fruit trees and flowers. Relax in the back to nature environment or explore the island by day and return to your cozy retreat by night. Private hot tub and outdoor shower. The Studio is screened in the Hawaiian style (no glass), so as to be open to the tropical outdoor setting, pleasant breezes and nature's wonders. Explore the awesome beauty of Hawaii's active volcano or the upcountry pastures of Parker Ranch and the cowboy country of Waimea--each just a 1.5 hour drive.

Tropical Hideaway is located on the west side of the 'Big Island' of Hawaii about 20 miles south of the town of Kailua-Kona, 1 mile off the main island highway near the 'Painted Church,' and 2.5 miles from the 'Place of Refuge' National Park at Honaunau.

Rates: Studio $145 per night + tax and $130 cleaning fee for 1-2 persons, 3 night minimum with advance reservation. (Futon couch also available for a child 10+ or third person, $15/night additional for 3rd person.)

It was a privilege to stay in this space while we explored The Big Island. We are always looking to feel closer to the locals and experience what it is to live where we visit. We felt close to nature and our host had great recommendations that made our trip exciting and relaxing. I love an outdoor shower! We easily made food at “home” and had everything we needed for our island adventures. Being close to Two Step was such a treat.

Loved our stay here - truly, it was as advertised - a tropical hideaway indeed!Kathy and Mark made us feel welcomed and offered anything we needed. Including apple bananas and other fruits grown on-property.The coqui choir sang all night long and made our stay memorable. Two step - the best snorkeling in all of Hawaii in my opinion, just a few miles down the hill - and we were able to go each day of our stay.We even took in the Saturday evening mass at the painted church an were greeted with beautiful Aloha and leis.Highly recommend this lovely location.

Kathleen was a very welcoming host and had everything we needed for our stay. A great experience to be out in the jungle with an outdoor shower and with surrounding screen windows in a private area that gives the stay a true getaway feel. Just be prepared to experience all the sounds of the jungle with roosters and frogs. Would stay again!

Tropical hideaway

Great location, just a short walk to the painted church and a quick drive to Two step or Kealakekua Bay. The outdoor shower was a treat and we loved the screened in windows to hear the sounds of the coqui at night and have the moonlight shine I. With the warm breezes. Fresh bananas every morning from trees on the property was appreciated!

Jungle Retreat

Relaxing and had everything we needed to cook and recreate. Jungle setting and elevation made it great for sleeping - cooler and the short bits of rain were great! Could smell flowers from hot tub. Appreciated the garden/jungle setting with views down to ocean from backyard. Wonderful location since we love snorkeling. Two Step and great snorkeling nearby. Painted church within walking distance was wonderful and so inviting! Another amazing thing was having the fresh bread stand at the bottom of the driveway. You gotta try the Ube and white chocolate chip cookies! We hope to be return guests!!

Very nice hideaway in abeautiful setting. Very private. We loved watching the sunset through the palm trees and laying in bed looking at the ocean. Fresh fruit was a plus as was the pool and hot tub. Kathleen provides lots of extras to make your stay comfortable. Close to lots of beaches, snorkeling, hiking and other sites to see. If we get back to the big island we’d enjoy staying here again.

Authentic Island Vibe!

It’s hard to choose a place to start when everything is so wonderful. The space is adorable and has everything you need for your stay. We used it as our home base for exploring the island, the close proximity to excellent snorkeling was amazing. We spent one day just at the space enjoying the hot tub and bbq, watching the sunset from the garden. I loved being serenaded to sleep by the tree frogs and gently awakened by the birds. Kathleen is a wonderful host and gave us a tour of the extensive tropical garden. I would stay here again!

Lovely place

We loved everything about this place. We slept so well here. The coqui frogs are loud but we like sleeping to loud waves or rainfall. You can hear cars on the road sometimes during the day but they didn't impact our stay. We made good use of the hot tub, pool, and outdoor shower. The pool was bigger then we thought it would be and deep. The sunset views were great. We'd return.

Wonderful Stay

We loved the atmosphere of this great, laid back place. So fun for us as a couple. Location is easy to access, a little cooler than sea level, pleasantly breezy, close enough to play at numerous beaches, and visit the entire island. You have plenty of privacy, but Kathy the host, and Mark, the caretaker are quickly accessible and ready to help when needed. Friendly, willing to offer suggestions. Yes there are insects, frogs, and roosters talking at times, but we found them funny and relaxing after the initial introduction. Facilities are completely adequate for preparing meals when you want to. Bed is comfortable. Outdoor shower and hot tub were fun.Really, our stay felt magical, relaxed, and thoroughly enjoyable. We both loved it and hope to return next year.

Perfect tropical hideaway

This property is on a hill with a bit of an ocean view, better when at the pool which was a beautiful small saltwater pool that was ten feet deep! The hot tub on the porch was nice for relaxing and listening to all the birds around you. It's mostly open air with an outdoor shower... loved it!! Kathleen is a photographer and her stunning photos decorate the rooms. The yard is lush with all types of tropical plants and trees. Lots of bananas and papaya they set out for you. They have a washer and dryer and lots of gear you can use. I would definitely stay here again!!

Romantic Tropical Hideaway

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the tropical hideaway, conveniently located a few minutes drive from two step beach+many coffee shops and about 30 minutes from Kona(which is you ask me, is the perfect distance from the busy tourist town). The space itself is beautiful and private, although the space is below Kathy’s living quarters, we truly felt we had the whole property to ourselves on our honeymoon and barely saw/heard anyone the whole week we stayed. The sunsets from our private hot tub were gorgeous, the home is well stocked, and the frogs put us right to sleep at night( bring ear plugs if you never have slept in a place with frogs as they can be loud to some people) . Kathy was a great host, giving us a tour when we arrived then leaving us to enjoy our privacy. She is responsive and very helpful of what’s locally around. We came for our Honeymoon and wished we could stay longer! 100% would stay again on our next visit to the BI!

Paradise!

We have nothing but good things to say about our stay at Tropical Hideaway! We had everything we needed, and it was the perfect place to enjoy beautiful Hawaii! We loved waking up every day to such a beautiful view, and going to sleep to the chirping of the birds, frogs, and bugs! The privacy of the property was awesome, and it was still such a short drive to great snorkeling and our other adventures! The hosts were so kind and ensured we had everything we needed, and gave us some good pointers for things to do on the island. We loved the fact that the place was just screened in instead of windows, it allowed for a really nice breeze and even without heating and cooling we were always comfortable! We enjoyed using the hot tub every day, and the grill and cooking appliances allowed us to cook several meals while we were there. We loved the ease of recycling and composting as well-everything is set up for little waste! We highly highly recommend this stay, and would love to stay here again if we make it back to Hawaii someday!!

A learning experience

Some good things here - cute place, easy access, charming looking, private enough, outdoor shower works great, pool access, lots of beach stuff to borrow, washer dryer available, and kitchen is well enough stocked, and general area interesting. Some not so great things here too, and in our opinion non-disclosures. We made the mistake of booking several months in advance, sight unseen for 4 weeks because we love the island and even the coqui frogs, so we thought that based on the description of this place, it would be similar to our previous location just south of here. But this place is a lanai (no glass on windows and main door), and I'd say just one step up from glamping - we had geckos inside and (one night) a cane spider in the bathroom sink. So this place is subject to little critters getting inside and doing what they want. The biggest problem though was roosters, to which the owner claimed ignorance and said they were new. Earplugs are not enough against the piercing noise of the highway or (especially) the roosters crowing day and night. Felt that we were dealt with in bad faith by owner and company when we had to leave after 4 nights of no sleep, and the experience cost us some stress and money and time to research a new location. The owner opined that our sensitivities to noise were the problem but that is demonstrably false, and other hosts give us 5 stars. We weren't the problem. Might be good for a short stay if you win at the rooster roulette, but not for us.

Antwort von VrboOwner am 12. Nov. 2024

I am sorry that staying at Tropical Hideaway didn’t work for you. However, I need to set the record straight for some of your comments. The description on VRBO states that there are half walls with screens (no glass), the photos show exactly what it looks like, and other reviews comment on the indoor-outdoor space and enjoying nature’s sounds. The roosters had just arrived across the street—they are feral and roam the wider area. We may see them briefly every 3-4 years. It seems they started crowing around 3am, but since I sleep through the night, I did not hear them and didn’t know they were around until you told me that your wife couldn’t sleep. On Oct. 4 when you were going to Hilo and might find somewhere else to stay, I immediately offered to refund half of your rental cost that I received for the 24 nights that you wouldn't be here. It was two more days before you said that you weren’t coming back. That refund was money that I didn’t get back. VRBO took 12 days to refund your money, with me calling VRBO several times and regular updates to you on the VRBO site of the refund progress. I don’t consider any of this ‘dealing in bad faith.’ I was supportive of you in every way that I could. Of the 45 reviews on VRBO for my place, 42 are 5 star reviews. On other booking sites I have a rating of 4.83 stars for 210 reviews. I've been in business for 22 years, and I want guests to have the best experience they can have. One can’t please everyone, but my track record is good.

We absolutely loved our experience at Paradise Hideaway! It was so peaceful listening to all the nature sounds and I loved how everything was closed in with screens instead of windows! Everything was very clean and Ms. Kathleen was very kind and made sure we had everything we needed.

Special place in Honaunau

Kathleen's place is a wonderful, relaxing hideaway. The inside is screened all around so you feel like you are always outside in the air, even when snuggled in bed. Hot tub outside your door, swimming pool a few steps away. Walk to the Painted Church, 5 min drive to Two Step and the Place of Refuge. Love it.

Relaxing, Truly tropical getaway

We loved our private ohana.Pictures are accurate to web site. Even though there are other people living here still very private and enjoyed working on our sun tans by the pool.The temp of pool in Jan was 75 degrees,which I found prefect We were treated to various fruits during our stay.We enjoyed the breeze that drifted various flower fragrances into our ohana as we slept at night.This is the tropicals and no windows but we found very few little creatures to bother us,we found geckos so entertaining .The hot tub was fantastic to enjoy before and after a day of exploring.This is a great location for snorkeling and hiking.We appreciated the quiet evenings as you are staying under the main house so be mindful not to be loud and as we appreciated the same as you can hear when there is only screens.The road is close but this is a quiet road at night,only the chickens ,frogs and some dogs so if you are a light sleeper you will need ear plugs.Over all I give this hideaway 5star.
