Arriving at night, driving to The Edge down a narrow, windy, hilly road, following Kurt's explicit instructions left me thinking, what have I gotten us into and my husband thinking what has SHE gotten us into? No worry, it's just an adventure that ends up great! If you want comfort and informality, along with fabulous views from the rooms and... More

My sister and I really enjoyed our stay at the Edge and wished we'd been able to stay longer. Kurt and Kana are wonderful hosts and their home is comfortable and unpretentious. We liked the Nut Room--a great value for the price. The grounds are lovely and the views of the ocean are great. More

Kurt and family were extremely friendly and accommodating. We loved the room, the view and the whole house. We brought our two young kids and they felt comfortable roaming the grounds and enjoyed playing with Kurt's daughter Jenna. The breakfast was excellent, featuring fresh fruit and a variety of main dishes. Kurt was an excellent tour guide, offering great insights... More

We have stayed here four times and love it at "The Edge". It is a working coffee and macadamia farm in the Kona Coffee Belt giving such a sweet feel of Old Hawaii. Oh, did I mention that it has an absolutely killer ocean view from the lanais! Kealakekua Bay and Two Step Beach is close for kayaking, snorkeling and... More

This is an amazing place !! This was my third stay at A Beautiful Edge of the World and I'm sure it won't be my last. The hosts are great -- friendly, informative, and helpful (they even do laundry for people who stay three days or more, free of charge !). The rooms are comfortable and spotless. There are a... More

This is our second time staying with Kurt and Kana at Beautiful Edge and we'll stay with them every time we visit Hawaii. It's a spectacular location at the South end of Captain Cook overlooking the bay from a perfect deck to watch the sunsets. It's away from the tourist hubub of Kona, but an easy drive to any of...

My wife and I have been to The Edge 2 years in a row. Not only are the owners/family superb hosts but you cannot duplicate the view. If you are looking for activities or just relaxation, I recommend this B&B without hesitation. It may be the only place we will stay whenever we go back to the Big Island. More

Great to see you again, and thank you for your kind words. While it's nice (for us) to meet new people from around the world, it's especially nice to catch up with the lives of former guests. It's like seeing old friends again. In fact, that's exactly what it is. Mahalo ! More

Clean, nice people, really good food, lovely view, but a bit off the beaten track (you have to drive down a cliff through a jungle to get there!). But highly recommended. More

Nice review, but I'm afraid that the words "cliff" and "jungle" are misleading and may unnecessarily scare many folks away. Here's the facts -- There's a highway from the Kona Airport to two tenths of a mile from our B&B. (It takes twenty to twenty five minutes.) From the highway there is a county road leading to the Edge. Because... More
