Awesome view!
This place was cozy and definitely has an awesome view even from the bed. It was cloudy when we arrived, but the morning was gorgeous. Only wish we could have spent a little more time there and enjoyed the outdoor shower more thoroughly.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Lookout Ohana.
We read the very detailed property description and immediately knew this was our kind of place. No frills but with eye for detail and excellent use of space. Away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to have access to a variety of restaurants and shopping. Also easy access to main roads if you are going to explore the Big Island. Host Amanda was prompt with responding and contacted us several times with much appreciated extra information.

Restful Retreat
Our 7-day stay was everything we hoped for. We enjoyed all the amenities, the treats/snacks and most of all the privacy. After a day in town or at the beach, it was wonderful to be up in the hills to relax on the lanai. Amanda and Michael are first-class hosts and made sure we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend The Lookout Ohana to anyone visiting the Kona area.

Read the information carefully and study all the pictures, this property is not for everyone.
We knew that the property was up a very steep path and there was a raised bed and an outside shower but even if you are fit, a light sleeper and short in stature everything was challenging. The metal roof cracked loudly as the temperature reduced overnight making sleep difficult.(not their fault). There was no hand washing facilities other than a very large kitchen sink. They brought a bowl for shaving There was a step up into the toilet and it was also raised. As it was raining you were unable to sit outside in comfort. Inside there were raised chairs again a challenge for small people.The Linau was not fully covered and the picture had not shown the fridge and microwave outside, again it was no fun using them in the rain, wind and cool temperatures. We were not prepared for no cooking facilities. I couldn't see the ocean from the kitchen as it was over 2 miles away and the vegetation had grown up. We decided that we would leave after one night and understood there was no obligation to refund anything. An expensive mistake but luckily we found somewhere near the ocean. We did not meet the host in person but her husband was very helpful.

a piece of paradise
I was a little surprised by the trek up the hill - not far and i was able to do it with my new hip. It was very tranquil, and the owners had many details to make you comfortable. I wished we stayed longer and could have had a BBQ with them or something. The bed was comfortable and the view amazing. Nice and quiet.

The listing was just as advertised. The host left a few snacks for us as treats and coffee. The outdoor space with the shower was unique and added a lot of character. We also loved the decor with painted walls of ocean creatures.

Quaint, cute little place, very relaxing.
Hosts were excellent. No AC but it's cooler up higher so the fan and window worked great. It's a very cute and all you need for a place to end your night. The outdoor shower was pretty awesome though. Would come back any time.

Retirement trip
We had an amazing stay at this Vrbo. It was clean. It was quiet. The owners were amazing and offering help with luggage. The view was absolutely hands-down one of the best views we’ve ever had. It was secluded, sunset's were amazing. This Vrbo is away from all of the hustle and bustle of touristy stuff. We truly enjoyed our stay so very much and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet private getaway not far from amenities. Thank you so much for this beautiful oasis to explore big Island from.

Perfect little Oasis
Perfect little Oasis for our 1 night in Kona. Enjoyed everything about it. Only thing I would suggest is to add a box fan to the property to cool the room down in the evening. We loved it.
