RELAX AND ENJOY! FIVE STAR ACCOMMODATIONS AT AFFORDABLE RATES!

This house was perfect for our needs. We were a group of friends-couples and singles. We had adequate room to afford privacy as well as the common living space. It is designed with the common living space on the upper level to take advantage of the view and breeze. It is beautiful, has a magnificant view and an on-site (next door) caretaker who is always available to give advice and assistance. None of us had ever been to the Big Island before, so we had "an agenda" of things to see. We traversed the island from one end to the other. We snorkled; swam with manta rays; drove up the lovely Kohala Coast; visited a coffee farm; visited historical sites; Waimea and Hamakua Coast; Hilo, drove back on the saddle road; Volcanoes National Park and a lava boat ride to see lave flowing into the ocean. (rough ride-be prepared to be pounded). It was a daily challenge to leave this house to tour the island. We would have loved to just relax, listen to the birds, smell the flowers and gaze at the scenery. Next time we will spend more time just "hanging out". We would definately return and would recommend this house to friends.

We have stayed at countless vacation rentals over the years and this is one of the best! The house doesn't have a bad view from anywhere and you truly feel like you are in a beautiful treehouse overlooking the blue ocean! One week is not long enough! Don't bring too much. You would be fine to bring 3 days worth af clothing and a swim suit. Flip flops and one pair of sneakers for a volcano trip are plenty. Very laid back town. Shop at Safeway if possible- choice mart is close but pricey. Rent a convertable.
Dan the caretaker was a great host! Thanks for the memories of a great vacation!

My family just spent a week in this beautiful house. It was such a wonderful place to have a family vacation. This house is so amazing. The views are spectacular. The photos of this house are so true but once you see the house and where it's located it's even more impressive. The area is quiet and peaceful. Everything we needed was right there at the house. The house was very well maintained. We just brought our clothes and moved in.

Dan, the caretaker, is such a wonderful guide. Having him right next door was just awesome. What ever we wanted to do he had great suggestions. Have to say he never lead us wrong one time. He gave us suggestions for the best places to snorkel (best times also), best places to eat (be sure to try the local places),best places to buy groceries and best beaches. If you have a question about the area he had an answer. It was like having our own private guide. Be sure to try the Coffee Shack for breakfast or lunch and Big Jake's for BBQ pork.

We loved our vacation home and plan to come back soon for another family vacation.
