Mermaid Manor is a wonderful place to stay. The listing is accurate, but neither the beautiful photos nor interesting descriptions do this place justice. It is a truly special property. From start to finish, staying at Mermaid Manor is a dream. Our family of four (two parents and two older teens) stayed here in April 2026, and all agreed that we’d do it again in a heartbeat. You should not hesitate to stay at this lovely home when visiting the Big Island.

We truly enjoyed every aspect of our stay at the Mermaid Manor for 2 weeks! Our daughter's family joined us and everyone (ages 75-12) absolutely had the best time. Our favorite place to start the morning and end with a friendly game of Flip 7 every night was the spacious main floor lanai with the breathtaking views of the ocean, moon and tide pools! Our grandchildren loved the mermaid shower and our daughter and son-in-law slept outdoors every night on the king bed on the lower level and raved about listening to the waves all night. So comfortable and immaculate! Fluffy towels, well equipped kitchen, plenty of hot water and beds that were SO comfortable are just a few of the many things we loved. We explored all of the island on daily adventures and were fortunate enough to see the volcano erupt our first day there. We had a fantastic time in the tide pools right in front of the lower patio. Cynthia was a very responsive and helpful host. The house was PERFECT and we absolutely loved our stay!! We recommend the Mermaid Manor to anyone looking for a superb home to enjoy while visiting this beautiful island!

Mermaid Manor was an incredible place to stay. Waking up to beautiful ocean views each morning was truly special. The home was spotless, the bed and pillows were very comfortable, and there was an abundance of towels—something we really appreciated. The house is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a perfect beach vacation.The mermaid shower is a surreal, one-of-a-kind experience, and the tide pools were absolutely amazing. Kim was easy to reach and communicate with, and Jen and Joey were incredibly helpful and hospitable throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again.

Mermaid Manor is a slice of heaven on Earth. The pictures and descriptions don’t do it justice, far surpassing our expectations. Enjoy the million dollar views while playing and exploring the tide pools or relaxing on one of the three lanais. Clean with beautiful breezes. Beautifully appointed. Lots of amenities provided, including beach equipment and snorkeling gear. Walking distance to Kona. You won’t want to leave. Cynthia greeted us upon arrival and we immediately felt at home. Host was very responsive. We will be back someday. Get you zen on at Mermaid Manor!

Our amazing trip!
The property is everything they say plus tons more! You can see and hear the ocean from every room! Two outdoor showers!!! The tide pools were awesome! Becky helped make the trip unforgettable. She even helped us arrange a personal chef for an intimate birthday dinner over looking the ocean! A quick walk to downtown Kona or an easy drive if that is your thing! We will definitely be back!! Thank you so much!!

Excellent Stay
Recently stayed in Mermaid Manor. The pictures online dont do the property justice. View are excellent, property well stocked with fluffy clean towels, spices, dishes, etc. New kitchen, new beautiful countertops & flooring. Everything needed for a great day on the beach, towels, chairs, snorkel items....even a wagon to haul it all around:)Tide pools....our 5 YO Grandson loved exploring. Everything was perfect. Could have easily stayed a extra week or 3 :) Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

Wonderful location and views!
Was able to watch whales and different ocean life from the lanai. The host had everything there we needed from Kona bean coffee to beach towels, beach chairs, etc. The kitchen was fully stocked. Short walk to eat breakfast. Ate at Jackie Rays! Loved! The upstairs carpet definitely needs to be replaced. Nice and roomy. The mermaid shower was unique!

Idyllic ocean front property
Great location within walking access to Kona town. Two large bedrooms with on suite with amazing ocean views. Spacious living area & plenty of lanai space on all floors for ocean and whale watching, plus outside/ocean access via steps over small sea wall. Ocean can be pretty rough so exercise caution, but ocean access via sand beach a short walk away.Spent our nights in comfort listening to the crash of the ocean waves. Kitchen well stock with fruit tray/macadamia nuts treats as welcome bonus. Host very friendly/helpful and responsive. Garage a little tight for bigger vehicles or if you have multiple but there is some off street parking.

A Dream Vacation Home
Our stay at Mermaid Manor was extraordinary. The beauty of the home and its surroundings far exceeded what the photos capture. Ideally located near town but away from the tourist hustle, the house offers both convenience and tranquility. The spacious rooms, infused with a breezy Hawaiian ambiance, each feature large windows framing stunning ocean views. One highlight was the oceanfront area with its enchanting mermaid tide pools, where we spent hours relaxing in the shallow water. Experienced snorkelers will love diving off the lava rocks to explore a vibrant coral reef teeming with fish.
The property owner was incredibly accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed, and the housekeeper was exceptionally friendly, sweet, and welcoming. The house is fully equipped with all the kitchen essentials and more, including extra beach towels, blankets, and pillows. A must-do experience is showering in the mermaid shower at night, where the sounds of the ocean and sea breeze create a truly magical atmosphere. We can't wait to return to this oceanfront paradise.
