Captain Cook House | AS SEEN ON HGTV BEACH HUNTERS! Oceanfront, Amazing Whale Watching and Snorkeling

2 Bedroom House in Captain Cook

Welcome to Koni Kai, Hawaiian translation: Passionate Sea. Koni Kai is a beautifully designed, very comfortable oceanfront home. Considerable time and effort has been spent to ensure Koni Kai is equipped with everything one might want/need while on vacation.
Koni Kai is perched on an ancient lava flow on the South Kona coast in Milolii, the oldest fishing village in Hawaii. If you are looking for nightlife (other than some of the best constellation viewing on the planet), then this is probably not the place for you. If, however, you are seeking a luxurious personal refuge that promotes relaxation and rejuvenation, then you have found your perfect vacation destination at Koni Kai. Located 30 miles south of Kailua-Kona and just an hour’s drive from Volcano National Park, Koni Kai provides the perfect home base to lounge all day on the 1000 square foot sundeck, explore nearby black and green sand beaches, experience the dramatically different eco-systems in the rainforests near Hilo, or hike the volcano to search for petroglyphs and watch active red lava flow into the ocean. Regardless of how you choose to spend your days, you will be welcomed back to Koni Kai with some of the most beautiful sunsets in the world, the perfect backdrop for the dramatically rugged landscape.
In the winter months (approximately November thru March), you will be able to sit on the sundeck and watch Humpback whales migrate, spinner dolphins perform and the occasional green sea turtle swim up to say hello. Some of the best snorkeling, diving and fishing can be found directly in front of the house due to a coral reef that spans the north side of the bay.
While we would hope the majority of your vacation is spent “un-plugged” from the chaos of the rest of the world, we understand there will be occasions when you need to check-in, so complimentary Wi-Fi internet and high-definition satellite television are provided. A brand-new, state of the art water filtration system, to include UV light, has been installed. The kitchen includes a Wolf gas range, Kenmore oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher and every small appliance we could think of. There is also a laundry area with a brand new Whirlpool Duet hi-efficiency washer and dryer.
Koni Kai welcomes you with much Aloha, now and for all your future Hawaii visits. Please contact us with any questions you may have – we look forward to making your stay as pleasant and memorable as possible.

Summary: Gorgeous out-of-the-way house right on the ocean. Peaceful and relaxing. Worth every penny to stay here!

katherine d. Apr 19, 2025 07:32:10 AM

Summary: It’s a beautiful open home with lots of privacy from neighbors and freedom to explore the ocean. Lovely ocean views and sounds. We mid jump in the ocean and used the snorkel equipment provided. Lots of yellow tangs, parrot fish and the Hawaiian state fish. Not ver many see urchins. Comfortable beds and a peaceful place!

Lori A. Mar 2, 2025 08:22:22 AM

Summary: You know the place is great when her husband texts the kids and says the following: Mom picked a beautiful spot for our last 7 days! We can walk 100 yards to snorkel, and the VRBO is almost unbelievable. Aloha!!!

Dawn W. Feb 23, 2025 08:42:11 PM

Summary: A perfect place to relax and unwind.

Margaret C. Feb 21, 2025 05:11:17 AM

Summary: We stayed 5 nights. We were aware that we needed to grocery shop before arriving and did so. However, there are always a couple of items that you are unsure if they will be left behind by previous renters such as cooking oil, butter, various herbs and spices. This after arriving we needed to pick up a few items. We went to the Oceanview Market that others had written about. We later realized that the closest markets and gas stations are actually back north. A helpful detail to know. This house is perfect for one couple. I would not want to be second couple or have a child with me. The open layout of the house is wonderful unless you are wanting privacy. With just the two of us privacy was not an issue.The kitchen could use a few more utensils such as garlic press, salad spinner, brownie sized baking pan.However, most items were there and we were able to make do and work around missing items. The snorkeling is indeed just two lots away. Although, at this time of year, you need to wait for a very calm day to enter safely. If was not until day 4 that we were able to get in. When we did, the snorkeling had a nice variety of fish and few human companions. Initially, we spent a great deal of time driving to other locations to snorkel, take historical tours, and National Parks. Near the end of our stay we discovered MilioliiBeach Park. On the weekends there is a food stand open with great food and the best prices on the island. The longer we stayed the more.

Summary: Throughly enjoyed the home for our six day stay. I'd highlight the back deck for the sunset views and the 24-7 ocean waves. We even saw a few whales as they went by (usually the hour before sunset) A great place to star gaze if you happen to be here on a moonless night. You do get used to the long winding road/drive down to the property (although it can be intimidating after dark). There was a nearly constant ocean breeze during our stay. I'd recommend opening the screened windows and slider doors for the fresh breeze to flow thru the house. Only a couple of mosquitos were encountered outside the whole week. We'd love to and plan to stay again.

Summary: Loved this location. The sounds alone transported me to a relaxed state. The road from the belt road to the property is a mountain path covered in asphalt so driving at night is slow. The drive is more than worth it. There is a beach a short drive and short hike away that can't be missed. There was one person on the beach other then me when I walked down. It was the best beach I saw on the island. The home is clean, well kept, and begs keeping the doors and windows open at all times. There are coffee farms and volcano access within a short drive on the main road. I will return.

Rebecca S. Dec 23, 2024 06:19:08 AM

Summary: Great location, right on the water.

Sharon V. Dec 2, 2024 04:09:31 AM

Summary: Loved it

Michael L. Nov 25, 2024 04:58:47 AM

Summary: This is exactly what we were looking for in our first trip to the Big Island. On the ocean and experience the lava flow from the Volcano National Park. Sarah was fantastic and super responsive. The house was amazing. We were able to fall asleep easily to the crashing waves against the rocks. Full disclosure, if you aren't used to Hawaii roads and switch backs, please note the drive to the property may be a challenge for you but no different than the Appalachian area on the mainland. The lanai was amazing to play cards, watch the sunset, and then the amazing night sky with so little light pollution you can take in all the constellations. We were very pleased with our visit to the Big Island and staying at this property.
