Beautiful property as described. The ocean sounds were magical, and very easy to get to the black sand beach at Kehena! This is the real Hawai'i for sure.
Sitting listening to the ocean waves is very relaxing. The sun doesn't shine directly on the deck, which I truly enjoyed. I did want the chairs to fully recline. The Lava Flats are close by and worth a visit. The black sand beach has no easy access route that we were able to find. My next trip to the Big Island, I will look for this rental. I did find the key box a little difficult to open and the laundry room instructions takes you to the wrong side of the house.
Lovely place to stay. Had everything we needed.
Absolutely loved every second of our stay. Easy getting into the home & it was amazing. Thank you to our hosts
This is our second time hear, and you can beat the Views and the ocean sound.
Our home was perfect. We loved everything. Thank you!
The view alone gives this place a 5-star rating! The house and it's amenities reinforce this rating! We loved our stay here & would gladly visit again!
Beautiful location! The back balcony was my favorite part! Listening to the waves crashing against the lava rock cliffs was priceless!
My friend and I stayed at this beautiful house for several days in February 2025. This house is so close to the ocean that all you hear is the peaceful sound of the waves. I have never slept so good. The house is very comfortable and beautiful. You will not be disappointed in your stay here.
Amazing experience. Lots of driving.
The house was very nice and well equipped. The picture of the view on the listing doesn’t do it justice, truly breathtaking.
This property is fantastic! Beautiful and clean! So comfortable! The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. The bedrooms were perfect. But, we could not get over the amazing location. Stars! Whales! Rainbows! Waves!We did our grocery shopping on our way since this home is tucked away. Additionally, screenshot the entry code in case it’s dark when you arrive because cell service might not be available. I hope we’ll be able to return in the near future.
The back lanai has an awesome view of the ocean. Ideal for sunrises. We also saw dolphins and whales. Susanna was very helpful. Fantastic visit.
Lovely home in a chill neighborhood. We have stayed here more than once.
It has always been my dream to stay in a house right on the ocean, sitting on a lanai and watching the waves. This stay completely fulfilled that dream.
The house is very nice, beautifully furnished, and equipped with excellent kitchen appliances. It is located on a very quiet street, about a one-hour drive from the center of Hilo. There is a ceiling fan in every room, and with all the windows open, the ocean breeze allowed us to sleep comfortably without AC. I would highly recommend this house.
Excellent location. So wonderful we never left to do anything. Just sitting on the deck watching the waves roll in was mesmerizing and relaxing . It had everything we needed. It is showing a bit of wear in the year since our last visit and could do with a little maintenance on the very front door and sliding door. Overall, we were thrilled and already planning a third visit
If you are staying here it is for one reason only, the back lanai...and it doesn't disappoint!! The pictures can never do the listing justice and the crashing of the ocean sounds awesome. You most certainly need to rent a vehicle for this place. The only thing we felt that should be mentioned and isn't currently part of the listing info is that this place has NO air conditioning. For those of us who keep a cool cave of a bedroom at home, this is unfortunate. With overnight temps in the low 70's and humidity over 90%, if you aren't used to it, you notice it quick. If that's no biggie for you, then you are in for a treat here as the view and sounds are second to none!!
This was my second time staying at this location. It's a 5 star value in all regards. A beautiful home with a great layout in an amazing location. The delight of just relaxing on the lanai or going out becomes one of the most difficult choices to make. I will be back for a 3rd stay and have no hesitation recommending it to others.
This place is amazing and we will be going back soon.
Great stay. 2nd time and less to do from 2015. Lots of driving. House was great but in need of some TLC. Needs a new coffee pot and outer door hard to open. Love the sounds of ocean.
This house is a jewel box. Don’t stay here if you want nightlife, easy beach access, or Kohala type amenities. Do stay here for peace and quiet and incredible 180 degree views of the ever-changing sea.
This was our second time staying here, and we loved every minute of watching and listening to the waves crash on the epic lanai. Looking forward to returning next year.
This property was amazing. The views were spectacular. The owners were great at communicating with us and there were no surprises. Very clean and we loved the decor. It is off the beaten path but that was exactly what we were looking for. We definitely want to come back and stay here again. Thanks for sharing your little piece of heaven in Hawaii with us.
