Thank you for such a great house! We sure enjoyed our time there, and had a great time on the island.  We would definitely like to recommend your house to our friends and family.  It was very nice to find beach towels, chairs and umbrellas handy. Thank you for that!  Otherwise everything was great.  I hope we get to rent the house again in the near future, it was one unforgettable experience.  Once again, thank you very much!  -- Natasha & Josh Grillo,  San Diego CA, April 2011

The White Sands Beach Home was perfect for our group.  Everybody had their own space for quiet times, and the upstairs was a great gathering place.  Being across from the beach was a big plus for our 9 yr old granddaughter.  We were greatly appreciative of the beach equipment available.  The boogie boards and noodles were used extensively, as were the small cool cans for our picnics.  The extra fridge in the entry hall was a nice touch, and all three washer/dryer units were put to work and did fine.  All supplies were adequate and easy to find (you have plenty of paper towels - Smile).  All in all, we were very pleased with the home and its location.  Everything went very well for us.  I appreciated your frequent contact to check up on how we were doing.  It was fun working with you, though we never had any major problems.  When we get back to BI, will definitely have you in mind.  Mahalo   -- Bill Jirsa, Fresno, CA April 2011

Thanks again for a great stay. We had a ton of fun and the kids loved the snorkel beach, the turtle beach and the wave beach!! Watching the sun go down over the water every night and sitting out on the deck eating dinner are fond memories that we will take back to Australia. We made use of the washing machines, the wave boards, snorkel gear, full cooking facilities etc, etc. - it just made our stay hassle free. We will be back.... -- Damien Angus, Australia  Oct  '10

We loved the Beach house!  It was a great value.  It was the perfect location for us because we fell in love with White Sands beach.  We especially appreciated the beach equipment – chairs, towels, and coolers – that you provided.  I loved having the washer and dryer right downstairs and it was great that you provided detergent.  Everyone loved the open floor plan and the double shower.  We also appreciated the ziplock baggies for sandwiches.  We will definitely recommend the Whitesands Beach Home to anyone who will listen.  Mahalo!  --  Jennifer L., Framingham MA  Aug. 2010

For all the houses we have rented on Maui, Kauai, and the BI, your accommodations are the most fun. Over the several years we have stayed, you’ve been a great host and has always made for a memorable experience over the years. We plan to return every year. My adult children loved it.
This is my favorite place to stay on the Kona side. We love the local flavor of beach and boogie boarding across the street .  We love watching the kids doing their boogie board maneuvers all day.
We enjoy our short night walks to Pahoehoe park where we’ve seen everything from impromptu hula practice, to small musical groups, and kids fishing with flashlights out on the reef as well as AA meetings. The snorkeling is pretty nice in front as well.  The beach across the street was our favorite though, especially before 6 am.  -  Ben and Mary, Cambria CA,  July 2010

The home was more than roomy enough for our group...  The ladies especially loved all of the kitchen furnishings and utensils.  The sleeping accomodations were perfectly adequate for us;  the bathrooms too.  There were more than enough towels and wash cloths, plus all the beach towels.  Thanks for providing all the laundry supplies.  The beach across the road was magnificent.  Several mornings there were only a handful of us on the beach or in the water and we regularly saw Honu (sea turtles) there.  Thanks for a wonderful place to stay, and for being a phone call away if we needed anything.  We’ll be back! -- John Tutor,  Lyons  CO  June '10

We loved your place!  We liked it much better than being in a hotel.  The kitchen was wonderfully outfitted.  From dishes and glasses to appliances to paper goods to odds and ends… great!  The White Sands location is terrific.  We loved the proximity to the markets, restaurants, shopping, and the routes out of town.  The lanai is one of my favorite features of the house.  I also really appreciated easy laundry access and supplies, and the neat, well-maintained appearance of the property.  It is a lovely house.  We would love to return some day!  --  Nancy W.,  Bellevue, Nebraska  June 2010

We had a great time and really enjoyed the beach house. It was a very comfortable place to stay and we appreciated all of the little extras. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. For instance, the coffee bean grinder was great since I bought some freshly roasted Kona beans and was able to make a great cup of coffee. The location was very convenient.  The home facilities, space, location were well worth the price.  Thanks for a great vacation.  -- Dan Maltbie, Mountain View CA  June 2009

I want to say thank you so much for a perfect vacation, the White Sands Beach house was more than we expected. It was stocked with everything anyone would need.  We ended up with 17 [people], very comfortable, clean and had everything anyone could ask for.  Your crew did an excellent job in the preparation before we arrived. Thank you very much. We look forward to the next trip and working through you.  Terrie & George, Dripping Springs TX, August ‘07

Thank you so very very much for letting us stay at your place at White Sands Beach. We had a wonderful time and found your place to be the perfect place for this large family to visit a tropical paradise together, an unprecedented experience. There was enough space and the house was more than adequately stocked with everything we needed. I can't tell you how much, as the "organizer" of the trip how much I appreciate your follow-through.   – Lee Family, Carson City NV, August ‘07

We all had a great time and loved the Whitesands Beach Home....across the street from a great body surf spot, a mile north to check out a good left [surf break] and a mile south another good and easy surfspot... It was not too sunny which served us well as we did not get burned or too hot. Did I mention all of the green turtles we saw!  - Mike Muller, Woodside CA Dec. 07 / Jan. 08

Everything was great.  The location was awesome.  It was great being able to walk right across the street.  We could wait for the sun to come out and hop across anytime.  With two little ones it was nice not having to pack up to go.  I could have used an electric griddle in the kitchen for pancakes.  That is the only thing I can think of that I missed from home.   Thanks again, The Shriver Families  -- Jan./Feb. ’08, Templeton, CA

We loved being right across the street from the beach.  In addition to it being so well 'stocked' both inside and out (boogie boards, beach chairs, W/D), it just had a great feel to it.  The place just screamed 'have an awesome time here!!'. Mahalo, Kim Jackson -- Mar. '08, Calgary AB

As always we enjoyed the Whitesands beach home. We will be back next year, maybe with more friends. The best sunset beach - you don’t have to go far – is Whitesands across the street.  See you next year, Holly Twerdy, Boston Nov/Dec '08

Loved the place. Great location & amenities. We had no problems and had a fantastic time. Thanks for working with us on the late checkout, it was much appreciated.  Jamey Kurbat, Glendale, AZ – July ‘07

We recently stayed at the White Sands Beach House and thoroughly enjoyed it.  The penthouse is particularly delightful and more than satisfies the desire for an exotic home-away-from-home.  It feels both homey and extravagant… Had a great time and will recommend the Beach House to friends.  Eric Russell and family, Bellingham, WA  - June ‘07
