Our stay on Hawaii Island was wonderful. The Balinese style was unique. The location of the house across from a beautiful black sand beach was perfect. We walked to the beach with our morning coffee enjoying the sunrise and then again after our return from being out and about. The climb down can be a bit difficult especially after the rain, so be careful. Point to note, you will encounter people who are nude as this is an optional clothing beach. The fans and the breezes kept the house comfortable. I can see why the owners requested you take off your shoes; black sand can get everywhere. The rain shower was great to wash everything off you from top to bottom. We prepared several meals at home instead of eating out. The kitchen layout allowed the two of us to be in there together. The whole area lost electrical power on the day we were leaving. The owners were very gracious in allowing us to stay past checkout to clean up when power returned, but we had to catch a flight so we couldn’t enjoy their hospitality.
Really cool place. A lot of attention to making it unique. Beds were super comfortable.
Only downfall was there was no internet service and upon arrival we had to leave to get service to find check in info then go back.
So secluded yet close to things. Such a fun experience!! Really cool house. So relaxing

Great communication with the hosts, from booking to arrival and departure. Nice traditional house with tons of space, and almost across the street from a black sand beach. Great location for a base to explore Kilauea and other spots on the big island.
Fantastic Host that was very quick to make our stay the Best. Great Location on the Ocean for Whale & Dolphin watching and one of the best beaches on the Island steps away. What more could you want.
The Bali house was a great place to stay. Very clean and quiet. If you haven’t stayed in this area before you need to know it’s remote, which we love. Bring your supplies before arriving as the nearest town is about 20-30 minutes away. We have stayed in the area multiple times and the Bali house offers great views of the ocean and quick access to the clothing optional beach. At night it’s nice to listen to the frogs and the ocean with very little artificial noise to interrupt. I would stay here again.
Quick responses. Better than expected. Loved the location.
An amazing place. Super tranquil. Kehena beach has amazing black sand and a few naked people, lol. The market was great and the little country store down the road was nice to have. Every night we fell asleep to thousands of geckos and fringes signing us to sleep. 100% recommend this place.
Property is lovely but the current upkeep of the grounds and house us in need of some TLC. The furniture is not that comfortable however the beds are very comfy. The inside lighting does not offer enough light at night. The appliances were all very nice and easy to operate. The explanations of how the house operates was lacking, id: TV, lights, fans, hot tub, close up, etc. A book or a PDF with instructions would have been helpful.
Exactly as described. Loved the property
Great location with ocean views and access to nearby beach. Perfect spot to unwind and get away from busy resorts. Lots of space for friends and family. The Bali House is cool!
This is a great, unique place to stay. I liked how the owners gave ideas on places to go and eat. The view was great but the photos of the grounds made it seem like it would be bigger than it actually was. The living space was great however! It is definitely rural with geckos and critters in and around the residence, but they kept to themselves. Over all it was a nice stay.
The house was GREAT and BEAUTIFUL!!! Close to a black sand beach in a wonderful neighborhood!!
This place is so absolutely perfect for a getaway as a couple. A few steps from the beach is amazing. We didn't hardly want to leave because sitting on the porch watching the water felt like a worthy excursion in itself.
The place is very private, with foliage and structures keeping other properties out of view. But you are quite close to other properties, and can hear them. It was not a problem or disruptive at all, but may be helpful detail for other guests.
This property is true to the listing. Perfect location for watching waves and having the ocean and frogs lull you to sleep at night. The bedrooms in the main house share the main bath and not totally private to others in your party. But for a couple it is super awesome! Was nice to go explore the island during the day and come back to a quiet neighborhood on the beach to relax at night :)
We had a wonderful stay at the Bali House, the view was awesome, comfortable place to stay. The hosts were great. Def a top pick stay!
Great location and lovely spacious place. Would definitely recommend for larger groups for the layout or smaller ones just for the location.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay at the breathtaking Bali house (December 2023). Tim and Iliahi are amazing hosts. It's a bit far from everything, but this can also be a great thing. I truly recommend this place.
