Oct 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and Quiet Communication from the host was above and beyond. She made sure that we had all of the checkin information before the checkin date. The home is well stocked with everything you need. Location is quiet and right on the water. It is a bit of a drive to any attractions but a great place to stay if you want to be close to Volcano National park (close-ish and on the water). ##### Candace C. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon H. Sep 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Seaside Tranquil Relaxation This seaside property exceeded my expectations. I enjoyed the gorgeous views and sounds of the ocean. I fell asleep each night listening to the ocean and awoke to a colorful sky as I watched the sunrise. The house has large windows and sliding glass doors that lead to a lovely lanai \[balcony\] with a table perfect for eating breakfast and lounge chairs, perfect for soaking up sunshine by day or stargazing by night. The kitchen is fully equipped with cookware including nonstick pans for the perfect eggs and pancakes. I was also impressed with the glassware selection since I enjoy my drinks in fancy glasses. They had elegant wind glasses, champagne flutes, coupe glasses, margarita glasses, whisky glassware and more! The host left us chocolate macadamia nuts as a welcome treat and we truly appreciated them. There were also quality toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner and body wash. There was also a very strong blow dryer and cozy robes! I felt spoiled! There is even a cooler and beach towels you can use if you decide to venture out. During my stay I ventured out to the Kahena Black Sand Beach and the hot pools at Pohoiki Bay where I enjoyed the volcanically-heated water!!!! This location was the perfect spot and provided such great relaxation! Do not hesitate, book it already! Lastly, checking in and checking out was a breeze and the host was a great communicator and ensured we had everything we needed. You’ll love your stay! ##### Shannon H.

Sandy was extremely responsive, helpful, thorough, and an excellent host. The house was perfect. The beds were comfortable and the house had everything you needed for a trip to the beach. We enjoyed the balcony and sunrises. The kitchen was stocked with everything to cook. We loved the espresso maker. Would love to stay again. ##### Sarah K.

The house is a little off the beaten path but totally worth the drive! The balcony feels private and is the perfect place to drink morning coffee while watching waves crash over the rocks. At night, the ceiling fans plus open windows (screened) provide great airflow - we were actually a little chilly at night! The host responds to messages promptly and provided us all the information we might need several days before we arrived. The house is stocked with everything you’d need for coffee, meals, and drinks; and small touches like flowers made it feel like home immediately. Definitely follow instructions and keep doors closed while any lights are on. We arrived after sunset, and a noticeable amount of gnats and mosquitoes got in that first night as we brought our suitcases into the house. ##### Jaedyn D.

I wish the bedroom door had curtains because the light woke me up super early (and maybe something to cover all the buckets when you enter), but it was a lovely stay. Beach access would have made it perfect (and we didn’t opt for the nude beach that was closest to the house), so we did a lot of driving. Comfortable bed, cute Christmas tree, tropical paradise. We didn’t want to leave! Thank you! ##### Deanna V.

A bit more rustic than expected. Absolutely stunning location, right on the lava cliffs with sound of waves crashing as background. Hosts responded quickly to address any issues encountered. I would absolutely stay there again. Enjoyed the geckos and chameleon...including in the house. Here's some downsides: - We lost power for about 6 hours. Transformer failure. With power out this meant we also had no water. Host brought water to get us buy. - No cell coverage (Verizon) at residence. - Internet connection dropped frequently. Drops were short period but this got a little annoying. - Place could use some TLC. Perfectly functional but don't expect elegance. ##### James A.

The unbelievable part was the incredible waves crashing just below the lanai, which boasted a table and multiple lounge chair options. We were always comfortable in the home that was quick to cool off with open windows. The sunrises were beautiful and the seclusion away from the crowded tourist areas on the island was exactly what we were looking for. We hope to return soon! ##### Ken F.

We’ve been to the Big Island many times but have not stayed in the Pahoa area. We loved it! A completely different vibe. The property was as was described right next to the ocean, waves crashing up onto the lava cliffs. The kitchen was well stocked, floral arrangements throughout the home to give a friendly feel. Plenty of towels and we’ll equipped beach equipment to use. Great internet service which is a plus in this remote-ish area. Sandy’s directions were spot on. She was prompt in responding to our questions. We will be back! ##### Deborah T.

Yes, it's right on the lava cliffs overlooking the ocean! And the sunrise greets you every morning. Lots of space inside the house and it has a large deck the length of the house that overlooks the ocean! Lots of windows that keep the house well ventilated. Lots of electronics that provide wifi, a landline telephone an internet phone, a wifi tv, and even electronic door locks and remotes for the ceiling fans. The manager is very helpful if you have questions about operating things Well stocked kitchen; dishes, pots, etc. Bathroom is spacious as well with a good tub shower combination. But, If you want to sightsee around, most everything is up around the Hilo area (35 to 45 minutes away). There are some things to see locally, but beaches have rough water and the road is a charming, one lane in places. Groceries are outrageously priced at the nearest store, stock up before arriving. Water is rain catch storage water, may be safe to drink but not guaranteed. It is treated (UV) and it seems as though most people trust it. We showered and washed dishes with it, but brought bottled water to drink. The house is a little rough around the edges, the salt water probably has worn it down both outside and inside. Bottom line: We grew to really like and enjoy the house. It has some interesting decor and nuances that give it some flavor. We found the secret, rough, roped trail to the cliffs about a block away (don't! get anywhere close to the cliff edge). Our neighbors were friendly, but respectful of our privacy. We spent a week and felt refreshed by the ocean waves and tropical breezes. ##### Mark O. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Deirdre S., Louisville, KY USA Feb 7, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gorgeous view! We loved our stay here. We felt welcomed by our hosts, but never intruded upon. There were some lovely surprises-- like top quality cook ware, beautiful dishes and very well stocked kitchen with sharp knives, garlic press and other rarities in vacation rentals (no oven, though there is a convection microwave). Wonderful coffee set up with an espresso machine and a very good drip maker, whole bean coffee and electric grinder. Basic spices also provided. The bath towels were huge and comfy with beach towels and chairs also provided. Many thoughtful little extras in the bathroom along with top quality shampoo/conditioner. The sound of the surf crashing is fantastic and even though houses are right on either side of you, just a few feet away, it mostly felt very private. There were also a few shortcomings-- the biggest being the lack of screens for the sliding doors and a few holes in screens on upper windows that meant we constantly battled insects and bugs. The house geckos were definitely well fed! The microfiber sheets are not a good choice in such a high humidity area, we often felt damp and sweaty during the night-- cotton would have been more comfortable. Overall, an excellent value in a great location, I highly recommend a stay here! ##### Deirdre S. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pat W.

Directions and check in were accurately and perfectly described in our instructions. Any amenity we needed was available, and more. Our hostess checked in with us at arrival day to ensure everything was fine. Comfortable stay, beautiful spot with crashing waves all day and night. ##### Marcia S.

The place is a bit weathered on the outside but that's to be expected when you are literally just yards from the Pacific Ocean. I would recommend this place for parties of 2. ##### Scott B.

What a wonderful place. Able to come back to our recluse on the ocean each night ##### Laura G. Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas M.

It is impossible to beat the sounds and sights of the powerful crashing waves just feet away from the home. This accommodation gives you access to a remote location and experience rarely accessed by typical tourists. The home has a full kitchen and set of appliances. This is a home in the jungle and you must be okay with sharing the home with a few geckos. The host Sandy was very helpful, provided clear instructions, and was quick to respond to questions. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Nicholas M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jihane K.

Host was helpful. ##### John B. Stayed 7 nights in May 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan R. Apr 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### On the Ocean! Fantastic location for the price. You can't beat it for relaxing and listening to the ocean. The house was very clean and well equipped. Sandy was always quick to respond and did a great job of making sure we had what we needed. We would definitely stay there again. ##### Susan R.

The hot tub was enjoyable as it rained almost the entire time we were there. If you are looking to get away from it all, this is your place. If you want to be close to town or restaurants, you will probably be disappointed ##### william b. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lenise R. Mar 11, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Island Getaway! My husband and I stayed here for a Hawaiian getaway and we loved this location! The remoteness we liked, along with the small towns that were near the house. One thing to know is that when it rains (which it does a lot in this side of the island) is that the rain is loud on the roof so if you’re a light sleeper, be sure to bring earplugs! Sandy was a wonderful host and we were very happy we chose to stay here! ##### Lenise R. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ilikai Hotel & Luxury Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Ilikai-Hotel-Luxury-Suites.h3479.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beachcomber Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Waikiki-Beachcomber-By-Outrigger.h21123568.Hotel-Information) > > [Wailea Beach Resort - Marriott, Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Wailea-Beach-Resort-Marriott.h20303.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Waikiki-Beach.h2766.Hotel-Information) > > [Moana Surfrider, A Westin Resort & Spa, Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Moana-Surfrider.h15534.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Waikiki-Beach.h25227.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Paradise Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OHANA-Waikiki-East-By-Outrigger.h14848.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Resort-Maui-At-Wailea.h14336.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Hawaiian-Village-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13857.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Reef Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Reef-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h23249.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Waikiki by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Waikiki.h7795.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Croix](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hotel-LaCroix.h49776.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Waikiki.h7385.Hotel-Information) > > [Palms at Wailea Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Palms-At-Wailea-Maui-By-Outrigger.h13093.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Waikiki-Beach.h22539.Hotel-Information) > > [Prince Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Prince-Waikiki.h287.Hotel-Information) > > [Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Embassy-Suites-By-Hilton-Waikiki-Beach-Walk.h1509657.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Hawaiian, a Luxury Collection Resort, Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Royal-Hawaiian.h19184.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Wailea Maui, A Waldorf Astoria Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Grand-Wailea-Maui.h7867.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Princess Kaiulani Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Sheraton-Princess-Kaiulani.h18246.Hotel-Information) > > [The Twin Fin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Twin-Fin-Hotel.h34498.Hotel-Information) > > ['Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Alohilani-Resort-Waikiki-Beach.h21781.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Kea Lani Maui](https://www.expedia.ca/Kihei-Hotels-Fairmont-Kea-Lani-Maui.h8765.Hotel-Information) > > [Aston at the Waikiki Banyan](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Aston-At-The-Waikiki-Banyan.h20880.Hotel-Information) > > [Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Waikiki-Beach-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h5306.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Vacation Club The Modern Honolulu](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-The-Modern-Honolulu.h3855608.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Shore Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Park-Shore-Waikiki.h13853.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Waikiki Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-OUTRIGGER-Waikiki-Beach-Resort.h13791.Hotel-Information) > > [Wayfinder Waikiki](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Wayfinder-Waikiki.h6640.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Honolulu-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Waikiki-Beach-Resort-Spa.h19988.Hotel-Information)
