Reviews

  • Apr 08, 2025 Absolutely beautiful! Dolphin Manor is a clean, well-equipped, spacious house. Each room was nicely decorated and very comfortable, and the backyard scenery is absolutely beautiful! We hope to return someday because it was perfect for us and our adult children. Sandra S
  • Mar 19, 2025 5 stars! The constant sound of ocean waves, spectacular sunsets, spinner dolphins swimming by, and humpback whales spouting, all from the comforts of your open air living room, made this the best rental ever! Accommodated our 17 guests in comfort. Matt R
  • Jan 09, 2025 It’s needs a safe and sealing fan don’t work But ocean view is amazing Patricia Barajas
  • Nov 10, 2024 This house was roomy enough to accommodate our large group. It is a lovely home with views to die for. The location has pros and cons - it is walkable to everything, but if you are like us, we had lots of big cars and the parking area was small and the road was very busy to get out of the driveway. Nicole Goodman
  • Sep 27, 2024 An absolutely stunning view in a beautiful, spacious home. Home is equipped with everything you could need. We loved our stay and would stay again! Lindsey Cox
  • Aug 15, 2024 It was a great place to be. Thank you for hosting our family. Samuel Kang
  • Jul 06, 2024 This property was perfect for our family of 11. Most in Hawaii for the first time. It was worth every penny to stay in beautiful Dolphin Manor. We loved being all together enjoying the shared spaces, especially the lanai which was very safe for our youngest grandson of 19 months. Plenty of bedrooms, most with a view of the ocean and very nice spacious bathrooms. We made wonderful memories on this trip of a lifetime! Carole THOMPSON
  • Jun 22, 2024 The pool is a bit small and it needed a cleaning when we got there but they handled it right away. The sounds of the ocean were worth the price. It was great for everyone room to have its own bathroom, kitchen was beautiful, double washer and dryers were awesome. The stay was perfect Julianne Fendley
  • Jun 15, 2024 We really enjoyed the property. The pictures were somewhat misleading for the size of the parking area and the pool. There were 14 of us and enough hot water was the only issue after a day at the beach and everyone needing to take a shower. We loved our trip!! Valerie Vought
  • Apr 03, 2024 Dolphin Manor was a perfect getaway for the women in our family! We all had our own bedroom and bathroom! The view was stunning, the house is well equipped and we enjoyed every minute! Dorothy Davila
  • Feb 14, 2024 What an amazing wonderful place. We had 12 stay very comfortably and really enjoyed ourselves. The proximity to restaurants and coffee shops was great. Angela Kimpo

  • Jan 08, 2024 The location is perfect! On the main drive where shops and restaurants are, but far enough away that you don’t get much noise. People in the area are really friendly and helpful. The house was stocked with enough towels, and kitchen supplies for our party of ten. Dishwasher pods, laundry pods, body boards, fishing rods, beach towels. You name it. Before going grocery shopping come to the house and check out the pantry. We tried to replace everything we used, and left back stuff for others like paper towels and dish soap etc. We loved the view. The hot tub was great. It was quite windy most days we were there, someone did come and clean out the pool when we asked if someone could come clean it. We did have an issue with one room, there was a smell in the bathroom, but it was addressed immediately and fixed. Our group of 10 had a great time. We would love to come back to this house again!! Thank you so much! Jessica Narain

  • Dec 18, 2023 This was a great place for our extended family to spend time together. We all had space to be together and space to sleep in our own rooms. The view and sound of the ocean was extra special. Jacquelyn Senekerimyan

  • Nov 14, 2023 We stayed at Dolphin Manor for a week (9 adults, 1 toddler and 1 child) and had a fantastic time. The place is beautiful, with amazing views overlooking the ocean. The house was clean, and well equipped with everything we needed, including a high chair and cot, pool and beach toys, and beach towels. The pool was small but was perfect for what we needed, and had a beautiful view. All rooms had ensuites, and the laundry was great with two sets of washers and dryers. The host was excellent and very responsive. The place is very close (short drive, or walk) to shops and restaurants and beaches. We would definitely stay there again! Jill Newby

  • Aug 01, 2023 An amazing large home right on the ocean. Beautiful views! House layout is perfect with an open floor plan from the large modern kitchen to a huge dining room leading into the living room with huge glass doors that open to amazing views of the ocean. The 5 bedrooms (each with their own bathroom are spacious and have balconies that have ocean views (all of except one bedroom). There is a media room with a large sofa and ottoman that we used as a 6th bedroom. The house is very spacious and comfortably accommodated our family of 15. The open floor plan allowed for great family time together and the beautiful ocean views were truely breathtaking…I could have sat on the patio or balcony taking it in forever. Lots of anemities-fishing poles, boogie boards, snorkel gear, high chair, pack-n-play. Private parking for 3 large SUV’s. We had a great Vacay…It was had to leave on checkout day but we are taking so many great memories with us. I highly recommend this beautiful home. Denise Oancea
  • Jul 20, 2023 The most beautiful place in the world!!! So peaceful, quiet, and spacious. There were 14 of us and we had lots of room and privacy!! Melisa Rice

  • Jun 30, 2023 Perfect set up for two families with teens. Mornings on the porch sipping Kona coffee were priceless. We also loved the private snorkeling spot right in front of the house. Use the large flat rock for entry 🌊 We can’t wait to visit again! Pavlina Mitchell
  • Jun 17, 2023 My boys and I have been going away every summer for over 10 years. We meet up with my brothers and their families in different states. This summer it was Hawaii at the Dolphin Manor and I said to the kids, "I don't think we will ever be able to top this place." The kitchen is my dream kitchen and was stocked with sharp knives and top-of-the-line pots, pans, dishes, and any kitchen gadget you could think of - rice cookers, coffee/teapots, blenders, grinders etc. But it was "nature bathing" for tired souls from the east coast that got me - ocean therapy each morning, sunsets each evening, walks to town, etc was perfect. Thank you for a memory that will last a lifetime. Nina Dickerman
  • May 13, 2023 This house was amazing! Beautiful Ocean views! Big bedrooms each with their own bathroom. Each room had its own AC - however the main living area/Kitchen area did not have AC. It was cool enough in the morning and evenings with the windows and doors open, but a little warm during the heat of the day. Location was great and easy to find. Laura Graham

  • Mar 18, 2023 Beautiful view from the place! Great location close to Kona downtown, very walkable. The pool is smaller in real life than on the picture, but overall matched the description. Overall would recommend this place! Alpha Ding

  • Jan 15, 2023 What an amazing place to host our organization's retreat! The host was super responsive with literally everything, allowing some of us early access (early flights!) and granting late check out. There weren't any coffee filters on site and they came twice in the same day to make it right. Couldn't have been more pleased with their care, from start to finish. Mahalo! Jeremy Allen

There were lots of places for our party of 9 to spread out around the house and patios. The pool is very small so we didn't use it much. We were able to get to our destinations easily. though we did need to drive to every place but the farmers market. I would love to go back and stay again some day. Theresa M

Jan 15, 2023 What an amazing place to host our organization's retreat! The host was super responsive with literally everything, allowing some of us early access (early flights!) and granting late check out. There weren't any coffee filters on site and they came twice in the same day to make it right. Couldn't have been more pleased with their care, from start to finish. Mahalo! Jeremy Allen

Aug 15, 2022 We had a wonderful stay, the view was incredible!!! We had a wonderful stay, the view was incredible!!! It was so hard to leave. There were lots of places for our party of 9 to spread out around the house and patios. The pool is very small so we didn't use it much. We were able to get to our destinations easily. though we did need to drive to every place but the farmers market. I would love to go back and stay again some day. Theresa M
