    Take note..we would definitely stay here again. Large home well appointed and generally very clean. Pro's..listen to the ocean 24/7, although close to public access, we felt very safe here, and well away from tourist traffic. Cons..its out there a bit, no stores nearby to grab the little things you forgot. Like I said earlier, generally very clean, but we found a big dead bug as we put our bags down when entering the property which taking into consideration where you are, its kind of to be expected. Would definitely stay here again in the future.

    We loved hearing the Ocean every night. Walk from home to Makuu and Puna Trail for hiking. Walk out backyard to sit on lava with ocean views. Feel lucky to see whales and sea turtles from there. The entire home was perfect especially outdoor and walk in bathrooms. Mahalo Mele Kai.

    The location of this place is great, we love this neighborhood. We first stayed here about 8 years ago. There have been some very nice upgrades to it since then. New mattress, couch, outdoor furniture and ceiling fans. Place was clean, plenty of starter products and toiletries that got us the 2 of us through the week. Sunrises from the lanai were fantastic. Definitely would stay here again.

    Graceful island retreat. Stunning views. Unique architecture and home interior design. The hot tub was so relaxing. The hubby loved the outdoor lux shower.

    The property more than met my expectations as I found myself saying wow a lot during our stay. Paradise Cliffs is just beyond the backyard. It was beautiful. HPP is a beautiful and strategic place to stay to explore all the wonderful places on the Hilo side of the island. There are lots of birds, lizards, & geckos all around the house & the geckos know how to get inside the house. Its cool. I hope to return again in the future.
