We had a wonderful stay here! The ocean and mountain views were phenomenal, and we were very close to a lot of activities. The space was very clean and organized. We appreciated the well stocked kitchen as well!
This is a beautiful, spacious country side property. The kitchen is fully equipped. There is a complete spice rack, olive oil, some coffee, sweetener packets and creamer. Liked the 2 queen beds (one sofa bed) and a king. Most places here have full instead of queen. Bath was well stocked with shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Shower floor was non-slip. Hair dryer provided.
Our favorite thing was the free petting zoo. Many goats, sheep, ducks, dogs and a cat. They love people and will come up to the fence to greet you upon arrival. These guys are don't smell and they are not noisy. Something
else was noisy on the first night. Every 3 seconds, ko-key, ko-key, ko-key! It was loud and seemed to be right outside our bedroom window. We asked the owners, who live next door about it. Raul and Stephanie are so wonderful and kind. Gave us earplugs and said it was a frog. The following nights, the frog could barely be heard far away.
This home is very close to attractions like the Boiling Pots and Kaumana Caves. Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls are nearby. Kilauea is about an hour away. We had the live cam on You Tube running all night on the big TV, waiting for episode 33 of the Kilauea eruption. As soon as it blew, we got in the car at 3:30 am. and drove to Volcano National Park. The drive took less than an hour. For us, witnessing the eruption was a once in a lifetime experience.
High recommend this property!
We had an amazing stay at this gorgeous ranch house. My partner and I stayed for the weekend and had family come over for a barbecue. It fit us all comfortably and we all enjoyed the beautiful view and animals roaming around. 5 stars all around.
Lovely place, great views, convenient, clean, hellful owner
We had a lovely stay in this spacious and clean property. We were out most of the day with family, but this was a wonderful place to rest, relax, and unwind at the end of our day. Thank you!
Fantastic hideaway, very clear instructions and great communication. ADU attached to a garage, great layout of the home and very comfortable beds! Love the farm animals and the property looks out over all of Hilo to the Ocean! Close to Volcano National Park!
Stayed for a few days. House and property was nice. Enjoyed seeing the goats outside our window. Weather was nice and cool except for the last day. Wish there was AC for the warm humid night. No paved driveway.
Very clean and well equiped with all needed in kitchen.
Beautiful property, probably one of the cleanest VRBO’s that we have stayed in. Great communication with hosts.
Definitely 5* . Enjoyed our stay at this place due to well maintained, very clean, amidst nature unit. Would definitely consider it again in next visit. Big thanks to our host Raul for hosting us.
Despite our short stay, we were delighted with the coziness and peaceful surroundings. We especially enjoyed the outdoor deck. The host was quick to respond, check-in/out was an easy. We were thankful for the guide provided in the home, one of the best we’ve seen thus far. Would recommend buying groceries ahead of time if your goal is to relax and enjoy a ‘home away from home’ staycation.
Overall Great rental. Very clean, well organized and well thought out. Host was very friendly and accommodating.

This cute guest house was very clean. The home was well-stocked. The views are very nice. The home is up the hill from Hilo, but the drive down to town is easy. We would definitely stay here again the next time we travel to the Big Island.
This is a clean, spacious property with a great view and attractive furnishings. Upon arrival we noticed a minor concern and Rauel immediately came and fixed it. Otherwise we had no issues and just enjoyed being in such a comfortable place. The trip to downtown Hilo is easy; the owners' recommendations that we followed were spot on. We would not hesitate to come again or recommend a stay to others.

Clean, comfortable, well appointed and great views. My grandkids loved the goats and chicken. It’s a ways into town but cooler up on the hill. I would definitely stay here again
Our family of four stayed here for 2 nights and really enjoyed the place. The house is quite spacious with two bedrooms and a large kitchen area. It also has a nice view from the porch, which can be great in the evenings. (Watch out for the aggressive rooster that wants to be fed every time you have something in the porch).The place is close to Volcanoes National Park, Hilo Bay, Rainbow Falls and the Japanese gardens. We brought some groceries and cooked and ate at the place and had a good time.I will strongly recommend this place.
Spacious room, quite place with goats on backyard, and overlooking the ocean.
Pure aloha radiates throughout the owners and park like acres., Comfort and location very well equipped.
What a perfect place to stay for our Ohana vacation! The hosts were so welcoming and kind. The house was clean and more than enough kitchen utensils. Even had a rice cooker which was so convenient. Definitely the best place to stay when visiting Hilo, Hawai’i!
Property was very clean and the lanai had a beautiful view. Some cute goats would also run by next door in a fenced in property that was so cute. Wonderful stay for our family. Mahalo!
This home was perfect in every way for our trip. Comfortable, accommodating, picturesque, and we loved the friendly animals.
We loved this beautiful area and it was close to many of the hikes and places we wanted to visit. House was very clean and exactly as listed and host was very easy to communicate with.
My family of 3 very much enjoyed the peace and quiet, backyard deck (with amazing view) for eating meals, plenty of space, comfortable beds and clean linens, as well as the beach towels to make our visit effortless-- just what you want on vacation. The instructions were very clear for what to look for when at the home/parking and entering. The host/hostess understand what travelers are hoping for when on vacation-- Very relaxing, comfortable, quiet and peaceful. Location is up the hill from Hilo and removed from the city yet very close to several outdoor attractions, which is exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend--5 stars!!
My family enjoyed the time we spent there. Definitely will return in the future.
The home was perfectly clean and well stocked with linens, bedding, kitchen items, and toiletries. The host was extremely responsive and pleasant.
Very cute, clean, looks new. Really nice linens. Owners are very friendly. Good location. Nice view. Had every amenity we needed.
Convenient location with space to relax.
We loved this house! The hosts were great. It was very clean, nice sheets & towels, very modern. Great view of ocean from the deck also. We booked our stay here for the first 3 days of our vacation.
We needed more rooms at the end of the week when the rest of the family was arriving so we had to move to a larger 5 bedroom house thats was horrible to say the least. We quickly called this host back and told him we wanted to come back if he still had availability and thank God he did, so we went back for the remainder of our trip and had an amazing stay. . We will be coming back for sure!
