Oceanfront Manini Beachfront Getaway - Minutes to Kona Coast / Captain Cook
Summary:
Wake to the sound of water and step onto the lanai while the Kona Coast comes alive around you. This oceanfront Captain Cook home gives up to eight guests four bedrooms, 2. 5 baths, and a front-row setting for slow coffee, salt-air dinners, and sunset color over the Pacific. Grill the catch of the day, gather in the light-filled living room, or set out for the clear water at Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park. Ho'okena Beach Park and South Kona's coffee country make easy day trips when you want to explore. Back home, a full kitchen and washer and dryer keep a family beach week simple. There is no air conditioning here, so the home relies on ceiling fans and ocean breezes. This is for a family or group that wants the Big Island to feel close, quiet, and beautifully real.
The Space:
Vaulted ceilings, broad glass doors, and cool flooring keep the living space bright and open, with the water always in view. Four bedrooms and 2. 5 baths sleep eight, while the full kitchen, breakfast bar, washer and dryer, and garage make longer stays easy. The home is not air-conditioned, so open doors, ceiling fans, and the ocean breeze set the rhythm indoors.
Guest Access:
Guests at Manini Beachfront Getaway enjoy a private entrance with a lit path for easy arrivals after dark, along with garage parking. This oceanfront home features beautiful sea and water views, outdoor seating, and a patio or balcony with a BBQ grill for enjoying meals while taking in the coastal setting. Inside, guests have access to a full kitchen and laundry facilities for added convenience.
The Neighborhood:
Captain Cook is South Kona at its most unhurried: coffee farms, lava coast, and deep-blue water without the bustle of a resort strip. Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park is the signature outing here, known for clear-water snorkeling, kayaking, and history. Ho'okena Beach Park is another favorite for a relaxed beach day. Plan on driving for dining and supplies, then come home for the kind of sunset and surf soundtrack that makes a South Kona stay feel wonderfully removed from the rush.
Getting Around:
Kona International Airport is roughly 35 to 45 minutes away along the scenic Kona Coast. A rental car is recommended for exploring local coffee farms, shops, dining, and beaches. Kealakekua Bay and nearby snorkeling spots are close by, while most other South Kona destinations require a drive. Parking is available on site for this home.

Beautiful view and comfortable home
The view is beyond amazing. The landscaping is so beautiful and we loved the frogs and geckos. The location is unmatched and the Manini Beach Park just a few steps away is all you need for a perfect vacation. Sunsets every night!

Paradise
The most beautiful location and view of the bay from the lounge. The house was well equipped with everything you could need.
We had such a great time on the island, even got to see an erupting volcano (very blessed with the timing of that on our trip)
Dolphins, turtles, and ray in the bay. AWESOME

Paradise getaway
Walking distance from a private beach, overlooking the ocean, this paradise getaway proved to be even more magical than its pictures represent. In a quiet, tucked-away hamlet, my family enjoyed the proximity to the Volcano Park, the black and white sand beaches, and then coming home to this spacious yet charming abode. The pantry and kitchen were well-stocked. I also appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella and mat for our excursions.

Big Island Vacation
Highly recommend this place. Beautiful house overlooking the bay. Very short distance to beach park with incredible snorkeling. Has a local vibe after driving down very curvy road to the bottom of mountain.

Gorgeous home and location
Fantastic home and location in Captain Cook. Felt like we were in a treehouse on the bay. Well appointed home and kitchen with everything you could need. Incredible views and spacious enough for 6 adults and one kid to do everything we wanted. Plenty of fans to keep the house cool and we truly had a magical stay!

View from deck is better than the pics. There is also a back deck with private garden view. Great snorkeling from the house. Super chill part of the island.

New Year's Holiday
Our holiday home on Kealakekua Bay met more than muster for our family of 6 ranging in age from 5-79. The house was pristine and furnished all desired amenitites. We had a direct view of the bay through wide, open, living room doors and lanai, and a short walk to the snorkeling area at Manini Beach. As Midwesterners, we could not have hoped for a more "exotic" Hawaiian experience.Highly, highly recommend.

Third time visiting this house!
This was our third trip to this house and it was as perfect as before. It really is a beautiful place to stay on vacation. I posted a review after the first year and nothing has changed from that. It really is fabulous!

Wonderful!
What could be better than waking up to a beautiful view of K- bay ? This home has everything you need to enjoy a sojourn in Hawaii. We’ve stayed in the bay several times, and loved this the most for its indoor/ outdoor walls & view. Hope to stay again! 🏖😊

Puako
We LOVED this house! It isn't 'fancy' - but the location is unbeatable. We spent most of our time on the lawn or on the beach - or sitting in a tide pool (at low tide) with a beer. The snorkeling was better than on our booked snorkeling tours. The house is very well equipped and very comfortable. I would go back in a heartbeat!

Great spot on the bay
The house was just what we needed - clean and comfy, close to the water, great views. We used the kayaks a few times and that was a highlight of the trip - we'd have used them daily if the weather had been calmer. Really enjoyed the opportunity to get into the water right from the house. Owner was communicative and helpful. Thanks!

Beautiful quiet cove, & not touristy
There are beautiful areas to ride the bikes & great kayaking & snorkeling.
Home is quiet & has an incredible open feel & ocean breezes that flow through the house when you open the large glass doors. We enjoyed our breakfast on the back patio while planning our adventures for the day, surrounded by lush green & beautiful flowers.
Enjoyed a glass of wine at the end of the day on the front Lanai watching the waves crash on shore. A rare and beautiful home.

Embrace the experience of this property. We didn’t turn the tv on once. We kayaked and snorkeled and swam with the spinner dolphins. Loved this property and can’t wait to come back!!🦎🌴🌺🐠

Great home in quiet, beautiful location
Tucked into a quiet neighborhood on a single lane road fronting a marine preserve with great snorkeling and kayaking just outside the door. Comfortable and thoughtfully furnished, a short drive to great food and a large market, kitchen is ready for cooking. Kayaks, snorkel gear and bikes provided for use are all in great shape. Perfect if you want time away from crowds and are interested in local history. Farmer's Market up the road on Saturdays. We will definitely come back!

Snorkeling Paradise
A beautiful view of the bay. A comfortable house with great amenities. It had just about everything we could ask for. A quiet neighborhood, we could hear the surf crashing at night. The owner was helpful with info about local activities. It was a short walk to 3 really good snorkeling spots. Short kayak trip across the bay to a great snorkeling spot, Capt. Cook. Short drive to another great snorkeling spot, Two Step. I would stay here again.

Wonderful Home to Escape To
We loved our stay in this house--it is a great location right across the street from the Bay. We were lucky to swim with dolphins in the bay several times. The house is convenient to most locations including the Volcanoes and the North Shore beaches. We did not venture to Hilo as it was raining there most of our trip while it was beautiful every day in Captain Cook. The house is very well equipped and we enjoyed the kayaks quite a bit. The owner was responsive to our needs and we could not have been happier. We never wanted to leave!

Amazing Experience!
First time staying in a VRBO. Wonderful experience. The home was beautiful, the location amazing. Oceanfront views out the front, with dolphins each morning in the bay. Jungle and tropical atmosphere in the back. A perfect escape! Very private and quiet (except for the birds each morning -lol!) Property was well-maintained and very clean. Communication with the property manager via text was very convenient and they replied very quickly to my questions. I would definetly go back to this property!

Excellent
Rick's house on Kealakekua Bay is spacious and beautiful. It is well designed, immaculate and it has everything you need for a great vacation. The old school Hawaiian style beach is a short walk down the road for swimming and relaxing . The house has great views of the bay, sunsets, the surf and even the Captain Cook monument across the bay. The area is full of Hawaiian history and archaeological monuments. It is well located right next to the bay with a great market at the top of the hill and a couple quaint villages near by for dining. I would definitely go back here. Thanks Rick! It was an easy relaxing week!

Gorgeous view
Location was perfect and the view was amazing! We kayaked from the house to the Captain Cook monument, Lani the local kayak rental man down the street was a huge help getting us in the water! Close proximity to Two Step which is great for snorkeling and short distance drive to green sand beach, black sand beach and pebble beach. The home has no A/C but this seems to be typical of many Hawaii homes. It was warm, but we adapted. During the day we were out exploring the beautiful island and at night you would get a bit of a breeze off the water.
