Our stay at Kahikole was even better than we could have imagined. The photos don’t even do the property justice. The home is so unique, with a single entryway and vestibule that is open air and yet protected from the rain. This provided nice breezes throughout our stay. The home was very clean and well-appointed with very comfortable beds. We slept with the windows open and were lulled to sleep by the soft sounds of waves and the meditative sounds of the coqui frogs (may not be for everyone). We spent most of our days just sitting on the deck enjoying the birds and watching the occasional dolphin pod go by. The views are unobstructed and amazing, allowing for wonderful sunrises and sunsets. The water twinkled like diamonds. The grounds are well landscaped and maintained and there are lots of other places to relax and read a book. We also enjoyed making friends with the resident gecko family roaming around the house (may not be for everyone, but they are truly harmless and very cute). The internet connection was fast so we could get work done quickly. The added bonus was the fact that Salt Water Vacations accommodated our last-minute request for a late check out, which allowed us to enjoy this wonderful property up until we had to leave for the airport. 100% would recommend booking your stay here. I know we will be back.

We all absolutely loved it. The view out the back to the ocean was totally awesome. Every day we sat on the second floor back porch for the sunrise and to watch the waves crash against shore and in the evenings just to listen to it. The house itself was very very nice with great views everywhere. Everything we needed was there. We highly recommend this property. Would love to come back some day.

Everything about this home was incredible. Clean, well stocked, gorgeous views, comfortable beds/linens. The only down side is that it is about 5 miles off the main road but that's what also makes it so special. Would stay here again without question.

This home is a great spot for watching the sunrise in the morning or the whales in the afternoon. One of the best equipped rental kitchens I've ever seen. Very unique home with circular layout and wonderful ocean views from almost every spot. The private ocean-front location is "first in class"-amazing! Very convenient to visit Volcanoes National Park or to drive up to Hilo (check out the Farmer's Mkt. and Ken's House of Pancakes) and the coastal areas to the north. Only negative we experienced was the electricity being out one of our three evening there (out of their control, but a real bummer nonetheless). It is a bit of a drive to grab groceries, so you may want to plan ahead so you can maximize your time enjoying the stunning views from this property once you arrive!

This was our second stay in this home and it won’t be the last. The views, the house, the volcanic cliffs, the gorgeous yard, and the location. It’s in the perfect spot to nest and explore the entire island conveniently. Sitting on the cliffs in the mornings with coffee and evenings with cocktails watching the waves and the changing light from sunrise and sunset is magical. Make sure you grab supplies in Hilo before you go to house. The neighborhood is wonderful and always people walking or biking. Love the separation of bedrooms downstairs and the leisure areas upstairs. The house is so beautiful and relaxing and inviting we never even turned on the television or music. The waves and the coqui frogs were exactly the relaxing sounds we wanted!

Super relaxing and Amazing little House on the cliffs... Super quiet hideaway!!!

I brought my family to Hilo (to be followed by Kona) as it had been more than 20 years since my last visit. This house was a perfect choice--solitude with a stunning lava cliff coast...sitting on the deck overlooking the gorgeous water color and turtles swimming was beyond therapeutic. In addition, the lush yard in the front/sides did feel like authentic Hilo. The layout of the home was functional and decorated well and had a perfect vibe. I enjoyed my nights sleeping with the windows open (no AC) and listening to the ocean and rain showers and frog songs. Only negative was when the blinds are open at night when the wind picks up they tend to bump back and forth on the windows. Also, it's a bit of a drive to get into Hilo town but this is definitely tolerable because we sought solitude in a gorgeous location. Rental staff was accommodating and checked in with us by text, etc. I would definitely rent this home again if given the possibility (and will secretly dream of purchasing one similar to this one someday!)

We love the uniqueness of the house. The views were outstanding. We loved walking outside on the lava cliff walls when we got there. The only thing we didn’t like was a bit of drive to everywhere you had to go. But we were prepared to travel. It was a nice launching point for a lot of the things we wanted to do on the Hilo side.

We absolutely loved returning to this gorgeous home! Clean, well organized, cute touches, beautiful grounds, resident geckos! Amazing to be so close to the ocean and to have so much privacy!

The pictures do not do justice for how wonderful the house and the views are. You are right on top of the ocean and can watch sea turtles from the balcony.
We can’t recommend the Maku’u Farmers market enough and really enjoyed Kaleo’s down the street. Overall wonderful stay!
