Lovely. The hosts were great and the unit very clean and had everything
The Guest House was an amazing place to stay! It wasn’t hot at all, even without an air conditioner it stayed really cool in the night. During the day, it was the perfect little quiet slice of heaven (or Hawai’i!). I will be booking with Laura and Aki the next time I visit the big island!
Good env
The guest house was the perfect stay for us. It was private, spacious, fully equipped with all you could need and tastefully decorated. The grounds were beautiful and well manicured. We were able to enjoy our days out at the beach and then come back and enjoy a meal from the grill. Having a washer/dryer was another great addition.
What a lovely place to stay while the festival was going on! Orchid House is situated on a beautifully lush acre. Cottage is well stocked, comfortable and perfect for friends to share. Mahalo!
Was a great place to be close to Son and family for grandson 1st birthday! So clean and peaceful and room for our dog to run and play frisbee!
Really nice place. Beautiful grounds. The grounds keeper and cleaning lady were very nice and friendly.
Very nice place in a somewhat remote area, although there are neighbors. Small but comfortable house, excellent patio, and very beautiful yard, bordered by jungle. Feel asleep to the songs of the coqui frogs every night. Good market and shops in Pahoa, about 15 minutes drive. Hilo is close to 30 minutes away. A problem with the water came up a the day before our stay, but Aki and Laura had it taken care of before we arrived, and communicated very well. Very happy with the way they handled the unexpected situation. Great hosts!
Highly recommended! This was a move for us, not a vacation, so, like most moves, it was quite stressful but Laura was always kind & patient & understanding of our situation. Def made things SO much easier. And her home was so cute & cozy! Thank you so much!!!
Our experience was amazing from the first contact I had with the property. Aki & Laura made sure we had good instructions on getting to the property and access our guest house. Everything was clean and my granddaughters loved playing in the large yard and they had so many toys to keep them plenty busy.
Very clean,. Although, you must travel down LONG dusty road to get to location. Warm, although they have fans. I was charged an additional $15 for my young daughter, although we all slept in the same bed. Beautiful landscaping and secure. As a local, I would not recommend booking this location on VRBO.
We stayed there
We had a perfect stay in this beautiful guest house in Keaau. It was exactly as advertised. Check in was easy. The property was clean and well maintained. The owners are very kind and responsive. We loved the gorgeous backyard. One night we drove all the way to Mauna Kea to see the stars and when we got back we found that the view was actually comparable on a clear night in the garden - what an unexpected bonus! In our experience, we needed to factor in about 20 extra minutes of driving time for the activities we wanted to do (as opposed to staying in Hilo or Volcano) but the comfort, beauty, and serenity here was well worth it. We would definitely stay here again.
