This home, and surrounding area/view, were spectacular! It provided a true feel of what one expects from an Hawaiian island. The driveway was magnificent, built up by foliage. The home was gorgeous, and the view was indescribable! We could have spent the entire stay sitting on the wrap-around porch looking at the ocean and landscaping. The pool was great. Truly an amazing experience.

A beautiful, well-maintained house that feels like it's in the middle of a rainforest, but is still easily accessible by car. The open-floor plan of the main living area + kitchen invites guests to spend time together, but the three main bedrooms provide sufficient privacy. Everything around the house is in good working working order, which shows how much the owners care about the property. The garden is absolutely magnificent!
This was one of our favorite places in Hawaii - we had a great time and would love to come back again for a longer stay.

We had such a special vacation. The house is a work of art with open beams, tropical woods, lava stone hearth. We were in the pool everyday and roasted marshmallows at the campfire overlooking an 180 degree view of the ocean. Beautiful cloud formations, eastern view sunrises and colorful sunsets. A bird watcher’s dream. Very private and exquisite landscaping. We look forward to coming back. Thank you to the owners for being very helpful and responsive.

Book this place if you’re looking to get away from the crowds and the noise. We forget that life can be so peaceful and beautiful but this property will remind you that you need this kind of life every once in a while in your life!

We loved our stay in Pahoa. The home is located on a beautiful property with a view of the sunrise every morning. We loved grilling and having dinner on the patio, playing pool in the billiards room, and just relaxing on the deck. The bedrooms were comfortable and accommodated our group with plenty of room to spare. The owners were very responsive and a pleasure to work with. We will be back!

Lovely location, great view, feels very private (trees do a good job of making it hard to see other houses). Stayed here 2 years ago, and enjoyed it so much we came back. Couple nice restaurants in Pahoa and Hilo isn't far either. Jim and Meagan are very responsive and helped us when we ran into issues (neighborhood power was out for a few hours when we arrived).

My wife and I brought our two daughters and their husbands to enjoy a week of island paradise. This place delivered. We had a magical time. The place was beautiful, and the location was ideal for getting to waterfalls, beaches and volcanos. Our only regret was not having another week to stay.

We stayed here for 5 nights and I wish it would have been 25!
Comfortable beds, wonderful air conditioning. We spent several hours just staring at the ocean and even saw dolphins, whales, and turtles right out the back.
Black Sand Beach, Volcanos, and Green Sand Beach were awesome waypoints when we could pry ourselves away from the amazing views and comfort of this home.
We can't wait to come back!

This is the perfect Hawaii getaway spot on the Big Island. Has absolutely everything you need in the house and it is on the ocean, quiet yard, and fantastic lanai. Even got to watch whales right from the lanai. Highly recommend.

This place looked even better in person! We really enjoyed our time on the East side of the island and were sad to leave this fabulous house. We made some great memories! We truly couldn’t wait to get back to the house after our excursions and spent most evenings in, just listening to the waves and enjoying the comfortable living room with the best tv content we’ve ever had at a rental. We could have just stayed there all day and been perfectly happy. Thank you so much for the wonderful time!

This was a perfect spot for the start to our Big Island trip. The location was quiet, and private. The house was great, the grounds are beautiful, and the view is amazing. Easy access to the Hilo side adventures. Thanks for a great 4 days!

Two weeks in paradise...this beautiful oceanfront home and property is well deserving of all its Five star reviews. Impeccably clean, well furnished and 100% peaceful! The descriptions are accurate but do not give justice to how spectacular this property really is...
Mahalo to our hosts for sharing their world class property!!!

This home is amazing! The property and the view alone make it 5 stars! We had daily activities planned, but on the 1 day that the rain was coming down in sheets, we were quite content to laze around on the deck and stare at the ocean all day.
Three days during our week we saw whales right off the shore.
Make sure that if you are bringing small children or elderly guests, that you carefully read about the spiral staircase inside the house – it could be tricky.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Great communication by owners. Gorgeous main room with soaring ceiling around beautiful lava chimney. Outstanding views/sounds from the waves on the rocks out front. Plenty of space to stretch-out indoors and out. Well-appointed kitchen. Comfortable beds and linens. The kids loved the bunk beds, air hockey table, and pool! If there were one thing that we'd change, it'd be adding some solar heating to the pool during these chillier winter months.
Thanks so much for sharing your home - we'd definitely return to this property in a heartbeat!
