We came to Hawaii for a family vacation. This home was exactly what we were looking for. My family and I enjoyed the home and pool. We would definitely go back! I highly suggest this home.

Beautiful, landscaped property with 2 master suites and a pool kept two families feeling relaxed and at home. Located in the tropical Puna section of the Hawaii, it was a nice place to retire each night when we finished a days exploration of the island. We will definitely be back to this enchanting island and will stay in this beautiful hale when we return.

We visited House of Paddles with a group of friends and kids. The house and space was beautiful. Plenty of room for everyone. Property was as listed. The only downside we experienced was just with the cleanliness of the pool. I think it would help to have the pump running for more than four hours a day, especially with a group of people using the pool and all the plant matter around. The lack of AC wasn’t an issue for us, but if you’re sensitive to heat know that this place is warm! You can get a nice breeze though at night, but we were blessed with calm warm days. And if you get warm, just take a dip in the pool. Thank you for a beautiful vacation. Will definitely return!

The house is beautiful but not dusted very well. The dish washer leaked all over the kitchen. The smoke detectors weren’t in the living room or off-suite. The pool was awesome for the grandkids to use everyday.the permits on the door for renting are expired. The headboard in the first bedroom has the metal coming off and is very sharp (someone tried taping it but it is not a great fix). Location is great and would use the house again!

We had an awesome time! The house was beautiful and the surrounding area was breath taking. We took walks daily to the cliff on the next street over the view was amazing!

The house was fantastic, if a little out of the way, set in a jungle like area. We booked this for the pool but found we could not get in or out safely. The ladder was totally wrong with a long step down. We were very disappointed. Didn't like the Roku streaming TV. Missed the playoff games.

I almost don't want to leave an honest review so nobody else will rent this place ever. This home is a beautiful oasis for your vacation. The master suite with the outdoor shower is incredible for just enough privacy. The layout of the home is perfect with roomy bedrooms and a huge living area for family. The lanai and pool were our favorites every evening after a day of adventures. Just a quick walk to the ocean. The location is in a quiet neighborhood that is a great central location to Hilo one way or Volcano Park the other way. We had lots of exploring time while staying here. This home made the second place we stayed at in Kona seem like a slum (and it was nice too). We didn't read the instruction book well when we first got there so we missed the part about keeping food scraps in the freezer to keep bugs from getting in the trash but after we saw it, dug our food scraps out, and knew what we were doing, it was all good. Maybe a little note in the kitchen about that would be a good reminder for future guests who get too caught up in the magic of Hawaii to follow directions straight away.We will definitely be back again and hope to be able to rent the House of Paddles. I've never stayed in a better VRBO rental.

The house had pretty much everything we needed. Loved the private backyard pool and used it every afternoon and evening. The location allows you to travel to so many day trips in all different directions on the island. The kitchen was great and the bbq very convenient too. Highly recommend you seriously check this out for a fabulous vacation getaway.

Very beautiful wood used through the home. The pool was wonderful to cool off in after a day exploring the Hilo side of the island. Loved the ohana bedroom!
