Aug 10, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A Great Place To Relax The house was exactly as advertised-right on the ocean. Our evenings were spent having drinks and enjoying the scenery. The pool was great for our kids. Unfortunately the hot tub was not working at the time, which was a bummer, but normally it would be running. The rooms were nice. The house is a little ways from restaurants and grocery stores, so be sure to stock up on food before getting there. Nice walks from the house as well. Be sure to watch the sunrise at the end of the road if you're awake at that time. ##### Ed S.

Reviewer Comments: We would have loved to have found salt and pepper, olive oil and vinegar, foil and plastic wrap for staples in the home. These basic items are missing. The pool is much small than portrayed in the photo. It is a narrow lap pool.We did love the location and the sound of the waves splashing nearby. ##### Linda S.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is absolutely gorgeous, and if you're lucky enough to have a clear morning, the sunrise setting can't be beat. We had not realized that the house was not air conditioned, and upon arrival it was HOT, but truly as soon as you get things opened up it cools off pretty quickly. The property manager was very responsive to questions - the hot tub wasn't working and she was able to tell us what to do immediatley. And FYI there is an alarm system panel inside the door, but no alarm to set (this is not mentioned in the house book). The only thing we did not love about this property was how far it is from everything. This side of the island does not have as many restaurants or shopping areas, and it is a long drive to anything, anyway. I would recommend this place for a "get away from it all" vacation - the kitchen is well equipped and the home and yard really invite you to stick around and relax. ##### Carene O. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pearl D. Feb 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Memories A fabulous location and home which met our requirements. We enjoyed our stay so much that we would like to return to continue our experience. The photos are accurate and describe the house better than words. The garden is thoughtfully landscaped providing a variety of plants and seating areas to encourage thoughtful serenity. The house is well equipped, however I suggest that the filthy fan kept in the bedroom closet be replaced or cleaned. The TV did not function even when following the instructions provided but we simply used our streaming device so it was not a problem. The hot tub only had jets functioning for two seating areas which worked out as it was just the two of us. The location is very good - 18 minutes from Hilo; 25 minutes from Volcano. Restaurants and groceries are 15-20 minutes drive. Overall it is a quiet neighbourhood. However, be very aware that the empty lot adjacent to the property is used as access to the shoreline by some shady characters who live out of their vehicle. We observed these unpleasant individuals daily when the weather was fine. Fortunately the weather worked in our favour and the wind and surf were high so the vagrant did not appear for the last few days of our stay. ##### Pearl D.

Reviewer Comments: -25-30 minutes from Hilo, if you don't like driving to get anywhere, don't get this house. We were fine with that because we wanted a little more quiet and private.-Scenery out back is beautiful. Sunrises, waves hitting the rocks, and volcanic rock is really cool. The master has a really nice balcony with even better views than the yard. No beach close though.-Pool is small but clean and it was a perfect temperature for staying cool without getting cold. Hot tub was clean and nice.-(Visited in August) House was hot with no A/C and the fans are just not enough to keep air moving. The fans need to be upgraded to be bigger in the main room and higher flow in the lower bedrooms, in my opinion.-The windows and doors need to be fixed for being able to lock and close better. If it's all adults, not a big deal. But we had a 5, 3, and 2 year old. We ended up carrying a mattress upstairs to have them sleep in the large master on the floor because we did not feel safe leaving them downstairs. No A/C meant you need windows and doors open. Not ideal for young kids on the main level with the master upstairs, or at all if you're into your kids' safety in a place you're not familiar with.-The neighborhood isn't the best. It's also not the worst. There's a mix of nice places and complete junk. You're not going to feel like everybody is on vacation if that's what you're after. It's very much full of locals, which isn't a bad thing. It was quiet for us, no funny stuff seemed to be going on anywhere.-I usually don't have a problem with tech, but the TV is funky and in my opinion, a vacation house should have something that's easier and newer than what this probably is. We could not access some of the popular apps most people use and couldn't login to others.-Overall, the house is useful and comfortable enough. Plenty of open room and patio space to relax. The kitchen is fairly well equipped, could be a little better.-There is plenty to do around ##### JP A. Stayed 9 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer B. Aug 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We loved our time at this property. The house cools down quickly once you open all the windows. Check in was super easy and our two questions were answered quickly via text. The home felt like a destination unto itself. Watching the sunrise and turtles in the AM and relaxing in the pool at night were perfect ways to bookend our Hilo-side adventures. ##### Jennifer B.
