Welcome to this private air conditioned Oceanfront Studio located between Hilo, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, and black sand beaches! Just 35 minutes from Hilo international Airport, Rainbow Falls, and more! This is an affordable way for singles or couples to enjoy an oceanfront experience where they can watch whales, dolphins, sea turtles, and benefit from the ever present cooling trade winds and wave sounds. When traveling to Hawaii, staying on the ocean greatly enhances the experience!
Enter through the hand carved teak door and enjoy your own private air conditioned oceanfront studio. Located on the lower level of this grand oceanfront home you will experience this great neighborhood of fine homes. If you plan on seeing many of the best sites the Big Island has to offer, we feel this is right in the middle of it all without being in the hustle of a commercialized area. Explore black sand beaches, Volcano National Park, multiple water falls, and the recent lava flows! Mable floors and other fine touches throughout lead to the perfectly framed ocean views! A 40 sq foot Lanai with 2 chairs is perfect for taking in the ocean breeze while spotting dolphins or seasonal whales. The large overhang above the deck makes sure that even on the wet days you can enjoy the outdoor lanai. There is a queen size high-end Murphy bed that is sure to give you a great nights sleep after a fun day of Hawaiian adventure. This bed is also unique in that it pulls down horizontally so when you lay down you face directly toward the sea! A fully stocked bathroom with extra beach towels and fine soaps is our standard! The kitchenette includes a fridge and freezer, microwave with convection oven and air fryer feature, dishes, coffee and utensils needed to enjoy a small meal. We think you will find this little luxury studio is a comfortable and affordable way to have a great oceanfront experience.
We have a 5 star rating! Come let us earn your 5 star review too! I am dedicated to making sure your experience in this little studio is the best possible! I want this to be a spot you will look back at fondly and want to revisit!
Guests have access to the studio on the lower level of the home. The rocky beach is accessible from the side yard.
From the moment you arrive we will completely respect your privacy. That being said we live on the main floor above and are ready to assist with anything you wish! You may hear "apartment" style noise above but never loud parties or music.
The beach behind the home (and most of the east side of Hawaii) is rocky. You can still walk along the coast but good shoes are recommended. The waves come in too strong for swimming. There is an olympic size community pool and kids splash parkl in Pahoa Town that is free for our guests to use. There are some sandy beaches to the north in Hilo and to the south in Kehena and Pohoiki (the worlds newest beach). There is so much to do and see in this area its hard to list it all. We can create custom recommendations for our guests based on what type of activities they wish.
Big Island is BIG and having a car is ideal! That being said, there is a bus line within walking distance. We are always happy to suggest activities and places to eat!
The studio is about 170 sq ft and the deck is another 40 sq ft. This place is best suited for 1 or 2 people.
Mahalo!

We really enjoyed our short stay here. It was clean, quiet, and comfortable. We mostly were here just to sleep but the view - wow! - an amazing way to start and end each day, with sounds of the waves crashing. We would definitely stay here again, thank you!!

Driving there can be tough if you’re coming from Hilo between 4-6pm on a weekday. Also headed to Hilo in the morning is rough. Plan accordingly. The room is epic. If you catch a strong wind or storm during your stay, it’s almost intimidating. The waves are right there. We don’t think we could have picked a better location for what we were looking for. Falling asleep to waves crashing. Private parking. Easy access. Great shower. Pull down bed which is incredibly comfortable. Would highly recommend it for any couples

We selected this location based on the price, location to Volcano National Park and mostly ocean front. We were not disappointed! The place is tiny but it was just the 2 of us and we spent most of our time sitting on the deck. The waves are incredible and crashed on the rocks just outside all night long. This is not a swimmable location but that was not what we were looking for. It was perfect for drinking wine at night and coffee in the morning in between our exploring of Big Island. We also discovered the greatest breakfast cafe in Pahoa that you should check out. Pele’s Kitchen. This is a place I would certainly stay at again or recommend to a single or a couple.

We enjoyed our stay here. It’s a bit off the beaten track but that adds to the charm. Right on the ocean with beach access a few properties down. Clean and comfortable. It’s small but has an excellent bed. Joe was very responsive to our requests and provided more coffee when asked. Definitely recommend Joes place

We didn't spend much time in the unit but it was the perfect place to put your head down and get your Zs before heading out and about. The sound of the ocean at night was a plus. Very nice and helpful host!
