What a wonderful place to stay while visiting Kailua-Kona, HI. We had the pleasure of staying at the Kona Sugar Shack for 10 glorious days. The grounds are well kept. The home is just like a "home away from home". John and Jae have furnished the property with a Hawaiian flare. We stayed in the Anniversary Suite. We are a family of three and were very comfortable. There is a king bed in the master bedroom, two twin beds in the living room and a puna bed on the lanai. The home is directly across the street from a very nice snorkeling spot and Magic Sands Beach. I can't say enough about Vicki the house keeper. She was at the property almost everyday cleaning or doing something. If I had any questions she was there to answer them. Jae handled the reservations while John was at the property almost everyday as well. He was very helpful with sightseeing suggestions and just made us feel right at home. We absolutely loved this home and the ma-halo feel when you walk through the door. Thank you John, Jae and Vicki for a wonderful stay!

We stayed at Kona Sugar Shack for the last three nights of our two week Big Island vacation. We stayed at several nice places and the Sugar Shack topped them all. We stayed in the Anniversary Suite, two adults and one child. It was plenty big for all of us. Beautifully decorated, well outfitted kitchen, compfy furniture and a huge outside deck made our stay just simply delightful. Jae was wonderful to work with and easily accessible if we needed anything. The view off the deck was stunning and the location of the place is perfect for getting to shopping and beaches. We would definitely return. Ahhh, lovely to remember!

Amazing experience! I highly recommend the Sugar Shack to family and friends. My husband and I spent our week long anniversary in the Honeymoon Suite and enjoyed every minute. Our room was immaculate and had many special touches that made it feel like home. Jai and John were such excellent hosts and gave us insider tips on where to go and what to do. There is great snorkeling just a short walk from the Sugar Shack. Such a quiet and relaxing place to spend our honeymoon! Thank you Jai and John! I don't know why anyone would stay in a cookie-cutter hotel room when, for about the same price, they can stay at the Kona Sugar Shack.

We were so happy to stay at the Sugar Shack. Clean, good location, FULLY stocked room, relaxing environment. It made our trip to Hawaii extra special. I highly recommend this place. Great for a family.

We were in the Anniversary Suite. If you are coming with more than two in your party, beware its a little noisy in the living area (where kids would sleep). There is also only air conditioning in the bedroom, not the main area. Just something to consider if you have light sleepers.
