Hidden away on the hill side with coffee farm around and beautiful views over the ocean.
The best coffee ever and delicious breakfast served by fantastic host. The host also knows the island very well and is full of advise and information. Very interesting and very helpful.
I would recommend anyone to stay at this fantastic place.
Kurt and his wife were excellent hosts; they were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the island and things to do. We loved the daily farm-to-table style breakfast, the variety of fresh fruit was incredible! The room was well furnished and the view from the patio was simply breathtaking. We can definitely picture staying here again in the future!
Kanae and Kurt are wonderful hosts on the Big Island. They have great advice on what to do and see, breakfasts were delicious, and they have beach and picnic equipment you can borrow.
Our hosts kurt and hana are the best. They're very informative and treated us like family. Their home breakfast meals were much better than 5 star hotels. I would definitely recommend their place. Very quiet and respectful atmosphere. The place is a little tricky at first to get to driving, but once you do its easy to remember.
The hosts were very kind and gave us good advice about local activities. Breakfast included fresh fruit from the property. Do not miss the breakfast! Enjoyed watching the geckos. Nice view of the ocean. Comfortable bed. The drive to the property is a bit wild, but you get used to it. Very nice stay.
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.
We had a fabulous experience at Edge of the World, exactly achieving our goal of escape from the hub-bub of Oahu. Kurt and Kanae are very friendly, warm and welcoming (and interesting!) but also discreet, leaving us to our peace and quiet. The views are amazing, and Edge is conveniently located to Captain Cook and all the surrounding activities and excellent restaurants. Breakfasts are wonderful with coffee grown on site, yum! We highly recommend!
Edge of the world is a great place to stay as a base to visit big island for a good budget. Room was big and clean and view from the balcony was awesome! Road to get there is a bit bumpy, but we could do it in a Camaro so any car can make it!
Wonderful hosts. Our breakfast and coffee was harvested on the property. It was all very delicious. The view was magnificent and we felt very immersed in nature. The setting is jungle-like and there are piglets and chickens and cats and a horse and a donkey roaming around the property. We loved it. We will definitely return!
Kurt and Kana were fabulous! Friendly and easy to talk to, and they take excellent care of their guests. The road to their place is a little intimidating at first, so Kana met us in her car and led the way. Great view, lovely breakfast (all home grown) and reliable recommendations for things to do in the area.
We loved staying at the Edge! Kurt and Kana were both the kindest, nicest hosts I have ever met. The breakfast every day is delicious and the room is wonderful, stocked with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The ocean view from the balcony is great, especially during sunsets and under the moonlight. The recommendations offered by Kurt were very helpful throughout our trip, and it was always great to wake up to both of their smiling faces. Highly recommend staying here!
It was a fantastic and unforgettable stay at the beautiful edge B&B。 Kurt and his Wife is among the best host you can expect: Comfortable bed, delicious breakfast and a lot of advice for touring the big island. Definitely will recommend to friends
Very friendly and helpful people. Mary and John substitited for kurt and kana. They looked after us so well. Good local knowledge.
The drive down to the property is great fun. Lovely location.

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.
This stay was like coming home for Christmas. Kurt and Kana are wonderful hosts. Starting each day of exploring the big island with Kana’s AMAZING breakfast was the best part of the day. Kurt gave us excellent sight seeing tips including doing a circle tour of the island. We loved it. The place is located up above in the mountains and the ocean is spread below - fantastic views! Our room was very comfortable , well appointed, and whatever we needed was provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Edge and would love to come back some day!
