The added picnic table was a very pleasant place for breakfast looking out to the ocean watching the whales beach and swimming around the bay.

This place has Hawaii home, all over it. We just loved everything about it from all the old history decor, to the crashing ocean waves! The gated property made us feel very safe, but it was as if we were in our own world!! Just not enough time or words to put it all in.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at Temple Tree Retreat, no one wanted to leave. I visit Hawaii every year and this is by far my favorite house on the Big Island. Highlights: Whale watching and listening to the sound of the waves and Coqui frogs at night. ##### Angie M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter H., Fort Wayne, IN Sep 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Unique, Special Experience This property provided a very special experience for us. The location is amazing, the listing/photos are accurate. The sunrise views from the bedrooms were magical. There is no AC, we were there the first week of Sept and it was 82 outside and around 87 inside the house. It was a little warm, but quickly cooled down in the evening. We would definitely stay here again! ##### Peter H.
