Howard is such an amazing host. Very responsive whenever we had questions and gave great advice on activities on the island. This place is even better than it looks in the pictures. We were blown away by the size of the bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. The covered patios and decks is where we spent so much time in the mornings and evenings after exploring the area. We also enjoyed a few days just hanging out at the house, going for bike rides, playing pool etc. Our girls already asked when we can come back before we even checked out. We will absolutely be back and would recommend this home and host to anyone contemplating on visiting Big Island.

The house is a palace, with tile done by a superb craftsman all thru the house. The bedroom and bathroom doors are stained wood with stained glass. The art in the house is incredible....with paintings done by an elephant (no lie), and wood masks and sculptures. Several fruit trees on the property too. We picked and ate starfruits daily.

It had everything we needed. A bit farther out of Hilo than we expected, but that is our fault for not looking closer.

The host is great about communicating. I loved having the extra space for my family and it’s wonderful they have everything you need to take to the beach. We enjoyed having bikes to explore around the area. The only draw back, which is also a plus, was extra driving to get to places. I liked the quiet area.

The house provided a lot of space. We loved the many lanais and its proximity to the ocean. Being outside of Hilo, it was peaceful but close enough to easily get to Hilo or Volcanos National Park. Our host was very responsive to our questions.

Loved the lanais all over the house. The yard was incredible with all the sites and sounds - loved the frog melodies. There was nothing else we could have asked for. Being close to the shore with two cool places to watch the sunrise and waves was a bonus. Host was responsive.

We had wonderful experience at this property. The home was big and spacious, and overall very clean—plenty of room to relax and feel comfortable. One of our favorite parts of the stay was the beautiful fruit trees throughout the property. We also loved being just a few blocks away from a spectacular ocean view and sunrise spot. Everything went smoothly on our stay.

Just WOW! This is the best VRBO I have ever booked. The place was too great and was better than we thought it could be. Not only was the house magnificent, but the grounds were like paradise. The host communicated when necessary, but was never overbearing. The location was perfect, with beach cliffs just a short small and town and many attractions within a 30 minute drive. We are already talking about coming back.

A comfortable and welcoming accommodation with an absolutely fantastic garden, as its own little slice of paradise!The weather was hot and very humid, the fans provided helped but some AC would be most welcome.

This is a beautiful home sitting on a beautiful property. Very spacious, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. Wonderful porches and patio's to sit out and enjoy the day.With no AC, the house can get a little warm but cools off later in the evening.The house was nearly perfectly clean and the floors are beautiful; however, the floors need a thorough moping which I would image is due to the windows being open for airflow.We would certainly recommend this property for future stays and would stay here again ourselves.

We like to travel a lot and this was the best house so far. The house is amazing. Check-in was quick and easy. We were able to drop off our luggage before check in time which was very helpful. Bedrooms are very spacious. We were able to pick a lot of different fruits in the yard.

Awesome place to stay when in Hilo. Has everything you need to keep everyone entertained even when you are at the property. Billiards, dart board and basketball hoop kept the kids busy. Also, had bikes to ride to go to the beach nearby and tour the neighborhood. But the best thing about this place was that you can try the fruits from the trees in the backyard. Bananas, pineapples, strawberry guavas and passion fruits. Very delicious!Howard was a great host as he was very accommodating and answered all our questions and was very friendly when I went over to meet him. We would stay here again if we ever go back to Hilo.Mahalo plenty!

Beautiful house with plenty of space. Outdoor equipment (bikes, surfboards etc) available. The neighborhood was nice and an easy walk to the ocean, but a bit of a drive to get to a town for groceries and supplies. Good communication and suggestions from the host.

Beautiful house for vacation and retreat

The place is located in a quiet and peaceful area. It is only about 20 minutes from Hilo. The place is amazingly beautiful and spacious. It is filled with arts the owner collecting from traveling many places in the world. The house is fully equipped for both short-term and long-term stay. The garden is beautiful with many fruit trees to admire. Highly recommend for travelers/visitors looking for quietness, peace, and nature beauty.

Great house and host with caveats.

House was well kept and clean. Layout was great for us, beds were comfortable. The multiple patios were wonderful and the majority of our time at the house was spent at one. Loved having the bikes and would ride to Paradise Point in the mornings to catch sunrise. It really doesn’t get any better.So the caveat…no where in the current listing does it mention no AC. Mornings and evenings are fine. But if you’re there in the late afternoon, it’s uncomfortably warm in the house (if leaving house earlier in the day and closing sliding doors per owners directions).Yes, there’s some warning about bugs. We didn’t find them bad, and if you’ve ever lived in a hot humid location, it shouldn’t bother you. But if that’s a foreign concept to you, take warning.
