Hale Lani ~ Big Island Charmer with Panoramic Ocean Views ~ Near Best Beaches

We loved staying here. The home was comfortable and quiet - yes there is highway noise but we were not bothered by it - we all slept better than we have in months! The beds were super comfortable and having the air conditioning to keep us cool at night was wonderful. The central air really is a game changer for night time and not that common in Hawaii, in my experience. The home was stocked with every pot, pan and utensil we could have needed, including a rice cooker that we used almost every day. Tupperware also! We fired up the grill one night and that was fabulous. The kitchen is kind of separate from where the TV is which was great for grownups cooking and chatting while the kids watched tv. I was trying to make a mental list of all the exceptional things about this place when I was there, because I was so appreciative of things like loads of bath towels (good, decent sized soft towels!) and great water pressure. The water got hot fast and worked well when both showers were in use. Unlike my own house! Haha. The patio was so wonderful - we sat out there for many meals. The plumeria tree gave us flowers every day and the kids loved watching the anole and the birds. Incredible view. We used the beach toys, cooler and beach towels daily. It was so great to have those things available to us! Overall the home has such a comfortable vibe, it's well decorated and there were many sweet touches all around the home, including in the yard. The hosts were awesome communicators.

Everything was absolutely fantastic per usual with Nick and Nicole! The best hosts ever!

This was a good find for our honey moon. We had a fully stocked and clean house. The view was exactly what we were looking for. We wanted coast and Mountain View both and we got it. It’s 39 miles to the top of Mouna Loa beautiful views with sunsets. The traffic noise was a bit disappointing the first day then we got used to it and it didn’t bother us anymore.

Fantastic bbqs and sunsets. Until next year….

Hale Lani delivered on all the must haves for our vacation. The location was ideal for access to the beach, sunrises and sunsets from the patio, exceptionally comfortable living space and amenities. We’ve stayed in many vacation rentals and this one truly checks all the boxes, from little things like dishwasher soap and trash bags to the bigger box which is it”feels” like your best friends house. The decor is truly island based which adds to the aesthetic-so much better than the functional but vanilla condo complexes. Host was very responsive - no issues at all. Very clean and definitely a kitchen you can cook in. Will highly recommend to friends headed to the Big Island.

Attention to detail! The hosts thought of literally everything you could possibly want or need to make their place your home away from home. Notables: Central AC, comfy beds, fully stocked kitchen, thick towels, huge bathtub and walk-in shower, full size washer/dryer located in utility room that looks like a closet (next to sliding patio doors). Excellent food and drinks at Seafood Bar & Grill 1 mile away. Very prompt communication with hosts, who were super nice. Also, they won’t add extra junk fees to your stay like corporate condo rentals do!

We had a wonderful stay. There was plenty of room for us to spread out. Outdoor space was terrific with great view.

Second trip to Hawai’i, second time staying at Hale Lani. We love the location of and the view from this house. It’s well-equipped: beach umbrellas, beach chairs, fluffy beach towels, good kitchen, grill, outdoor seating, and a smart tv if you want to watch something other than the sunsets. Aloha Nicole and Nick, thanks for sharing the house with us!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. Nicole and Nicholas went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable and well supplied in the house. All of the little details that make the difference were handled. We arrived very late in the evening to a fresh loaf of bread and butter, a bottle of wine, and coffee beans for the morning. What a joy for a late flight. The view on the lanai is to die for and the proximity to the beaches is wonderful. We have been doing VRBO rentals on the Big Island for the last 7 years and this was the best rental we have stayed at for both the property and the hosts. Thank you - we plan to return!

This was our second visit to Hale Lani and we love it! The location is excellent for getting to all the spots we love, and the house and hosts are delightful. We will be back! Aloha!

I love love love this home. I have stayed several times. Location is great. A few friends and family for a retreat and to enjoy the beautiful Hawaii island. This place is magical. The owners are so kind. The home is clean with a great view. Love it.

Loved how clean and well stocked the rental was. The beach umbrellas and chairs they provided were super helpful. Beautiful oceans views (just don’t expect a lush tropical landscape, this is the dry side of the island). 5-15 minutes away from lots of awesome beaches. Hosts were great with communication and provided lovely touches like a bottle of wine, freshly baked bread and a bag of coffee. And only 15 minute drive to cute town of Waimea. Only downsides are a bit of traffic noise, master bathroom doesn’t have a door and a few ants (but the hosts were upfront about it and they leave as soon as fast as they appear)
