Very friendly couple who was accommodating and gave good suggestions for nearby attractions. Property was clean with a beautiful view (can’t emphasize this enough) and good breakfast prepared by the couple. The road to getting to the property is difficult to find in the dark and is hilly (recommend a car in good condition with good brakes), but the lady came to a nearby easy to find intersection to lead us to the property. Would definitely recommend this property as long as you are okay that it is not in the most well lit area but has beautiful views!

We enjoyed an idyllic adventure at the Beautiful Edge of the World bed and breakfast. Kurt and Caena were the ideal hosts. They provided us with a welcoming atmosphere into their home. The breakfasts provided were healthy and delicious. The setting on a coffee plantation enabled us to enjoy nature while relishing their warm hospitality.
The only challenge is that to reach the inn requires driving on unpacked roads. It was raining when we first arrived and our GPS stopped working. We called and Caena drove out to meet us and lead us to her home. The next day she led us out to the highway to ensure that we were familiar with the route. After overcoming this minor problem, we had a marvelous time at the Beautiful Edge of the World, which truly lived up to its name.

Kurt and Kana were wonderful hosts. My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our stay with them! Kana made us a wonderful breakfast each morning. We got to try lots of tropical fruits they grew on their land, and the coffee was amazing. It was so peaceful and quiet, we could hear the waves from the few miles away the beach is. Kurt recommended some really good places to eat and beaches to go to. The sunset from the lanai was so gorgeous. The view was breathtaking. The bed was comfy. We also liked the water pressure in the shower. Also whatever soap they have for guests in the shower smells amazing and the shampoo and conditioner made my hair feel soft and look shiny. If we ever find ourselves back on the Big Island, we’re definitely going to stay here again! I would recommend The Edge to anyone and everyone.

Great ocean view from the large, comfortable porch(lanai). Wonderful breakfast! We had the smaller room but it was sufficient and the living room and lanai were very comfortable to hang out. Bathroom was not in room but just a few steps down the hall and large and private. Jungle road to get there is awesome. A little hard to find at night. Jungle noises, mostly frogs, in evenings was nice. Roosters at 3:30 am not so nice but we got used to it. I had thought from the write up on it that we had use of the kitchen but it didn’t really feel that way but we did have our own small fridge to use. There were coolers and swim and snorkel stuff and beach chairs to use which was great. Easy access to good snorkeling and points south but a lot of traffic to go toward Kona. Overall it was a great place and we would stay there again. Nice hosts.

Overall, the place was great. The hosts were wonderful. Spectacular view!

Only negative was the drive to the house. The last half mile through a one-lane path. The path was difficult to maneuver as the terrain was rough and had steep sections. The rain made it even more difficult.

Didn't end up being an issue, but one note is that they only take check or cash, no debit or credit cards. This was identified in the communication, but can easily be overlooked.

A Beautiful Edge is a great retreat away from the busier area of Kailua-Kona. The owners took really good care of us and offered suggestions for activities and loaned out beach chairs, etc. We stayed in two different rooms and preferred the \"Crow's Nest\" because it was the most private. The view from the lanai is extraordinary and such a great place to have breakfast or relax.

bad and good experience

It was reported that the room has a private bathroom, in fact, the bathroom and the toilet were outside the room and another couple living in another room in the house and they bathroom and toilet were broke down, so they entered our bathroom and toilet without asking our consent and without the landlord informing us that although we paid for a private bathroom in the room. the gust has even used our bath towels and it is not nice. Also, we have been traveling all over the world and it never happened that during all the days of staying, we stayed in a room that he is in a private home, they were not replaced bed linen, towels, and even the trash cans in the room and bathroom were not emptied even once.
Beyond the difficult experience of not getting basic services, I must note that the landlords are very nice people, the breakfast is special, the landlord gives tips for trips in the area every morning and let you use the sea equipment he has at home and umbrellas for rain. and the view is so beautiful from the house.

Wow, the views!

First, I must say that if you're not familiar with the area, trying to get to the house at night the first time is an adventure in itself. We eventually found the house, and Kurt and his wife greeted us warmly. Both were gracious hosts throughout our stay, and a great source of local knowledge in terms of things to do in the area. Our room was large and spacious, with spectacular views from the room, balcony, and breakfast area; we really enjoyed working on our bird identification skills during breakfast (and watching the \"Christmas Geckos\" in the nearby fruit trees)!

In our opinion, the accommodations were well worth the nightly rate. My partner and I are already talking about our next trip to the Big Island, Captain Cook, and A Beautiful Edge of the World B and B.
