Located right at the Pacific Ocean \~ Bali Temple offers 160-degree Ocean Views and a wonderfully relaxing and peaceful Hawaii experience that will leave you fully rejuvenated. Bali Temple is truly a unique and special place to spend your time in Hawaii, and is known for its dramatic setting, beautiful architecture, and luxuriously well-appointed amenities. Bali Temple is located adjacent to the 1993 lava flow which has created 160 degrees of glorious, expansive Pacific Ocean and whitewater views for your enjoyment. There is a private black sand beach a few hundred yards away to enjoy year-round sunrises and sunsets and watch the humpback whales breaching during the winter months. Bali Temple enjoys a fully equipped modern kitchen, double vanity sinks, 6’ spa bathtub, granite, gorgeous Mahogany wood trim accents, expansive picture windows looking out to the ocean, large mirrors, a covered lanai, Tempur-Pedic mattresses, 100% cotton bedding, and thick bath towels. Bali Temple is located on the top floor of a 2-story house and is fully contained with its own entrance, stairway, and amenities. It is 100% private. Ocean Temple, VRBO # 1247897, is located on the main floor of the house and is fully contained with its own entrance. Cottage at the Ocean, VRBO# 654541 is located in the separate cottage next door. There is a laundry room off of the house with its own entrance that all guests have access to. Contact me to learn about special rates when renting more than one of these properties at the same time. All units are ideal for 2 people. We offer a sanctuary setting, where guests come to retreat from the hustle and bustle of their worlds, to deeply relax, recharge, and renew themselves amidst the beautiful natural setting that surrounds us. All guests are asked to maintain this sacred container when on the property. When my visitors depart Bali Temple, they feel refreshed, invigorated, and much more vibrant than when they arrived. The air along our coastline has been measured to be the cleanest in the United States! The lush greenery and scenic coastline areas are inspiring. There are many spectacular sites to visit during your stay: visit Kehena Beach, a gorgeous black sand beach where you may be lucky to swim and snorkel with wild spinner dolphins, and your (non) clothing is optional. Check out the numerous Volcano Touring activities such as: Volcano National Park, Lava Tree State Park, and Lava Hikes. Experience an abundance of shopping for the true tastes of Hawaii with its abundant selections of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish, flowers, and unique gift items at either Maku'u Market in Pahoa (Sunday morning), the Kaimu Market (Saturday morning, and ½ mile away from Bali Temple!) complete with authentic Hawaiian music and locally made crafts and treasures, and the Hilo Farmer's Market (7 days a week). Acquaint yourself with the Island flora with a tour at the Botanical Gardens, sightsee and explore numerous waterfalls, Whale Watch from the lanai, indulge yourself with fine Dining, and dance it all off at Ecstatic Dance on Sundays at Kalani, and then the Drum Circle on Sunday afternoon at Kehena Beach. There are numerous Yoga Classes, Pilates Classes, and massage therapists ready to treat you! Dining options from Bali Temple are numerous: Right in the neighborhood is an authentic Ava Bar, serving up the local and relaxing Kava beverage, with the Kalapana Village Café right next door, open til 9pm. Kalani Honua is 4 miles down the Red Road for delicious meals too. 9 miles up the road is Pahoa Town, with numerous options in Italian, Thai, Sushi, Mexican, Kaleo’s Bar and Grill, coffee shops, etc. Hilo is 30 miles for many more choices. If you are seeking a retreat from the rest of the world, amidst luxurious accommodations, and a perfect springboard location to the rest of the island's activities, in an Old-World Hawaii setting only Lower Puna can offer, then Bali Temple is perfect for you. I look forward to your visit at Bali Temple…see you soon! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a zoo - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Composting - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Humane treatment of captive wild animals - Local artist showcase - Recycling - Unit size: 1,000 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78600000/78591100/78591003/610e2668.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Temple Tree Retreat - An Adventurer's Oceanfront Paradise!

We enjoyed eating and listening to music during open mic at a bar in Pahoa. We also were able to spend a Wednesday night at Uncle Roberts bar and market enjoying the music and atmosphere that area is known for. The trip to the Volcanoes National Park is an easy hour drive and well worth the trip. This is a great location if you're looking for some relaxation and discovering Island life independent of commercial excursions and tours. ##### Beth R.

Unique and private, beautiful and relaxing. We enjoyed 5 days of rest, scenic tours, casual dining and exploring. We wouldn't have changed anything. The only reason we put 4\*\*\*\* for location is that it is quite remote and off the main highway (though roads are all paved), but it does mean a good 30 minute drive just to get onto the highway to proceed to other areas like South Point, Volcanoe, Hilo, etc. We loved the driving but it does factor into your vacation and daily travel itinerary - don't expect to find a restaurant close by, and it is Very dark at night! ##### Lise H.

We settled in comfortably after a little difficulty finding the place in the dark: the sign was higher than headlight range and the street has at least 5 houses. We were pleased that all of Rachel's guests were considerate people while that was not true of one resident house and one guest house on the street.We cannot recommend this place highly enough: truly unique.

The unit is fully stocked with everything you need. It is clean, and serene. The location is right by the ocean and the lava fields, and the full moon shone down in the evenings. It is near beaches and markets and is a fun area to explore. Our host was helpful and responsive. We would stay again in a heartbeat if we return to this part of Hawaii. ##### Sriram S. Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark B. Feb 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful HQ to explore SE Big Island The Bali Temple is a nicely appointed upper-story of a charming house on the SE shore of the Big Island. It has all the "equipment" necessary to hang out, cook for yourself, read, relax. Excellent internet. Washer/Dryer on premise (but, be warned, no TV). Great view of an amazing lava field, and beyond that, the ocean.People younger and more spry than us were out walking on the lava field; it's a short walk to the ocean. Folks were fishing, and actually coming home with fish! There's no beach there, so no swimming within walking distance, but dramatic waves crashing against the lava.Staying here and exploring the neighborhood, you'll see a lot of lava, some of which looks like heaps of cinders (a'a) and others areas like frozen licorice pudding (pahoehoe). Toss in a visit to the Volcano park and you'll be a lava expert, too! ##### Mark B.

Balcony overlooking the ocean! Lava to walk on outside the back door! Beautiful artwork inside and amenities galore. Such a comfy master bed - posturepedic. Wished the other bed options were better: thin mattress on lanai bed, thick foam and hard option, or squishy couch not a pull out. Teen slept fine on lanai bed but older side sleepers might not. Loved the squishy sofa - so cozy for chatting with my love face to face. Views are awesome! Birds were chirpy so ear plugs helped and windows quality that blocked sound some. The night sky stars were incredible! The use of binoculars were much appreciated to soak in the incredible views. There is a circle window that lets you wake up to a view. Would stay there again for sure! A must stay! We can’t wait to return. Mahalo for such an incredible experience! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alan C. Feb 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Little Slice of Heaven A beautiful and immaculate upstairs residence surrounded by lush flowering trees and overlooking a spectacular lava flow running out into the ocean. The Hostess spared no expense or effort in remodeling this peaceful home, and her love for the Big Island and its culture shows. Everything at the Bali Temple was as advertised or better, from the soothing decor to the amenities like folding beach chairs, fully functional kitchen with microwave and gas stove, quality bath and beach towels, two coolers, board games and puzzles, and thoughtful details I can't even remember right now. Hint: check inside all the drawers!We visited in February and only really needed the air conditioning at night, and didn't see one bug inside the house. Definitely bring close-toed shoes for walking out onto the lava, and don't forget a flashlight or two: there's nothing like stargazing from the lava at night, but it's very dark at the Bali Temple! Sunrise was the best time to spot whales, and there were plenty to see.The WIFI works well, although we had no trouble with our Verizon cellular service.The Hostess was friendly and responsive to our questions and sent a complete package including a welcome letter several weeks in advance.Overall, an excellent and relaxing stay. We'll definitely return again! ##### Alan C. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nelson J. Aug 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### I saw the ISS In this harmonious abode, one is greeted by an aura of pristine serenity that resonates deeply with the meticulous care poured into each facet of its existence. The custodian of this sanctuary, imbued with an ardent spirit, reverently crafts an offering that emanates not only tangible goods but an intangible essence, a testament to her reverence for the holistic experience. As one ventures beyond the confines of this haven, they are embraced by the gentle embrace of nature's embrace, a symphony of tranquility that dances in tandem with the heart's rhythm. The external vista, a kaleidoscope of undulating beauty, mirrors the inner sanctum's ethos of mindful harmony, forging an immersive tapestry where the senses and soul are interwoven in a sublime ballet. ##### Nelson J.

Yes Spent four nights here recently. My first VRBO booking, let’s just say everything you see and read in the posting are anccurate and exceeded my expectations. YES! That is the view in the pics. Here are some details: View: Amazing, even in the rain Bali House: just like it says, a zen and well done decor with an inviting layout. Location: quiet, peaceful, off the beaten path. THIS IS NOT THE LOUD OBNOXIOUS PACKED WITH PEOPLE RESORT AREA. This area is to leave that behind. Accommodations: could not think of anything that wasn’t there or available to us. Directions and instructions: not one issue, just read them. Host: R was great! Thank you so much! Bottom line: we will be back!!! Note: I read most of the reviews prior to booking. The “one star” post was a douche bag for sure. Let the shower water warm up, it will be fine. MJ ##### Maximilian J. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melody A.

Being able to wake up to sunshine, lava and ocean was unmatched. Met a few neighbors walking the lava who raved about the owner. ##### John A.

The only downside/complaint is the downstairs guests slamming their doors all night and early morning. ##### Nichole P. Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne S.
