The floors could have been much cleaner, and the bed more firm and more comfortable.

Great little apartment with a wonderful view of the Kona Coast. We loved sitting out there and looking at the view with all the unique birds and beautiful flowers and everything. I liked that I could use the washer and drier, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The t.v. and sofa room were really nice. It was very private and a good location.

One evening we had friendly, but loud neighbors. But, that can happen anywhere.

The most important thing for us is always the view and this property delivered. The wide ocean and mountain scenery are beautifully framed by the colorful and well-manicured gardens. Private patio seating is a lovely place to take in the panorama and sunsets/sunrises. We enjoyed spacious quarters, a comfy bed, lots of hot water, birdsong and the company of our gracious host Viviane who generously offered us some of the bounty of her gardens. The property is secluded and quiet with no road noise, but is conveniently just minutes down the hill from the Choicemart grocery in Captain Cook. Local dining gems are Shaka Tacos, Rebel Kitchen, Teshima's, and Gypsea Gelato and coffee.

Our stay was perfect. The only thing that could have been better is if we were able to stay longer.

The best part of this stay was the view it offered when we woke up. We came in while it was dark and had seen pictures of what to expect. To see the view live was amazing. We loved sitting outside in the morning and enjoying our coffee and the vista. There were many breakfast cereal choices available.

The place was lovely and comfortable! The view was stunning. The lodgings were clean and comfortable. It was nice having a kitchen. The breakfast was do it yourself. Fruit, cereal, bread, eggs, and milk were provide, which was perfect for us.

We were upgraded to the couples suite and loved the privacy! The views were amazing and it was the most relaxing part of our vacation. Viviane was so nice and gave great recommendations for where to go and what to eat. In hindsight we wished we would have stayed a day or 2 longer!

Full size refrigerator was stocked with milk, bread, butter, jam and other goodies. Kitchen was fully stocked with utensils for making meals. Grocery store was just up the hill. Our unit had a separate room for luggage. View from porch was breathtaking.

It took one night to get used to the sounds of the nocturnal creatures.

Extremely scenic, quiet and felt remote although it was very close to the center of town and restaurants. No surprises. Guest responsibilities were posted and trip hazards were identified by the host during the individual welcoming orientation.

I would have loved to have beach amenities such as, beach towels, snorkeling 🤿, beach toys.

One of the great location views in the world.

Nothing comes to mind.

The Captain Cook Belle Vue was a real surprise for us. The location was great with a stunning (!) view of the ocan 1000 feet below. The hostess/ owner was really nice and helpful. She had great information about recreational ideas for us and took time to give helpful hints.The deck and lawn areas were great for suntanning, relaxing or watching the sun sink into the ocean. The bathroom and shower are spacious and the internet is great. We also were happy with the grocery store and the restaurants in Captain Cook. It seemed really laid back compared to the hustle of Kona and is far closer to several of the best beachs on the island. This is a small family business on 4 acres of bautifully land with trees, flowers and birds. For us it was the best B&B find we have had in 15 years coming to Hawaii. We will go back again.

Beautiful location, with an amazing view and gardens. Viviane was a wonderful and welcoming hostess. I appreciated the fan in the sleeping area--those coqui frogs are *loud* and the white noise was very helpful. Loved the recommendation for takeout from Shaka Tacosz for dinner--it was delicious and perfect.

The only issue I had was that Apple Maps advised I was at the location when I was about 300 metres away. Mitigation - pay attention to the location instructions.

Away from the madness that Ironman brings to Kona

Vivienne was a superb host providing everything you could possibly require. Location and view absolutely stunning

Maybe could use a little updating, but then we also liked the down-home feel of this place, which I’d take anyway over a high rise hotel in the tourist area. The rooms were clean and comfortably furnished, and the refrigerator was stocked with custom gluten free breakfast bread and cereal. We were able to use the washer and dryer to launder our clothes before repacking for the trip home.

Amazing location, with the best views!
