A Nice Getaway
Submitted: March 26, 2013
Stayed: March 2013
The house was clean and quite comfortable. The welcome bowl of fresh fruit was tasty and a nice touch. The location was conveniently close to the beaches, markets, etc. The owners were extremely informative about activities. The house was a delightful place to relax at the end of busy days. The grill, snorkel gear and boogie boards were most appreciated, as well as the washer/dryer. We would most definitely stay here again.

I really enjoyed my stay in the little cottage. It was very clean and comfortable and had every amenity I could have needed. Communication with the owner was excellent and I felt welcome borrowing their home. The directions were simple and accurate. The welcome fruit basket was lovely. Internet services were flawless, water was plentiful and fresh. The grounds were beautiful. I would definitely stay again and I'd recommend the place to family and friends.

My wife and I had a fantastic one-week vacation here. The apt locates in a quiet area, it's very clean, looks new. There are some maps and tour books. We found the blue book is very useful. The owner, David and Kiesten, are super nice. They allow us a late check out. We are glad choosing this place.

Our family of four needed something clean and affordable to explore the Hilo side. This house was perfect! It was beautifully clean and had a queen bed, double futon, and all the basics for a nice stay. The newer construction and vinyl windows reduced much of the frog noise this side of the island is known for. We spent some of our time in Hilo and some at the volcano and this felt like a pretty central spot. Would definitely stay again!

Comfortable Green Living

Kristin and David’s vacation rental is a peaceful destination within paradise. Staying at their home, you get a feel for what it’s like to live like a local: green living, few tourists and peaceful comfort. The location is in a residential neighborhood that is quiet and at night the sounds of nature come alive, something you won’t hear in Hilo or Kona. It’s a short drive to Pahoa where you can get some great Thai food, espresso, groceries and essentials. I really liked the “throwback” culture of Pahoa; hope it’s not commercialized anytime soon. Hilo is about 30 minutes away and has some beautiful parks and well-stocked fresh produce at the farmers market.
The residence itself has a nice design. The ‘traditional’ carport for enjoying the outdoors, a large wrap around deck and a very large yard great for examining local flora. The interior is new: kitchen cupboards laminate wood-flooring, vaulted ceiling, lots of closet space. It was clean upon arrival and there were plenty of cleaning supplies for keeping it so during our stay. The local hosts had fresh fruit and treats waiting for us.
The best part of all was the exposure to “sustainability”. I hadn’t thought much about it until I experienced it. Water catchment and solar panels for heating the water; ways to live green and reduce your dependence on utilities providers, and that’s just a beginning. It was a great introduction to green living and has impacted my thoughts on sustainability in my own home.
I have stayed in many homes on the islands through VRBO. I would highly recommend this property for 3 reasons 1) Green living/sustainability 2) local vibe and no tourist’s 3) comfort. If you need a fourth- its VERY reasonably priced!

My husband and I stayed here in August for 2 weeks to complete our home in the same subdivision. In addition to being very convenient, we really enjoyed it here. Everything was as we were told it would be, and exceptionally clean and well-kept. The photos really don't do this house justice. We had concerns about the amount of hot water due to it being solar-powered only, however, that was never an issue even on a rainy day. I ended up needing to extend my stay due to some delays with our house, and the owners were very accommodating. Also, no need to be concerned about the location in reference to activities in the area, as it's only 5 miles from Pahoa and about 16 from Hilo. You can play all day, and return to nature's peace here. There is plenty of beautiful scenery to visit along the Kapoho and Kalapana coastlines about 8 to 10 miles away, along with a couple beach parks in the same region. Hilo also has zoos, botanical gardens, ziplining, etc. I highly recommend this property, and would stay here again.

We loved staying in your home with our twin girls. Everything was clean and well stocked so we didn't have to buy much. The kitchen was perfectly equiped since we prepared all of our meals at the house. It felt like home away from home. Thanks again for everything.

Home away from home

Stayed: February 2011
I'm approaching the end of my six-week stay at David and Kir's vacation rental. It's going to be hard to pry myself away when it's time to leave. It is so comfortable and relaxing here. The home is only a few years old and is in immaculate condition. It has everything you need for daily living. The kitchen is stocked for cooking with some extras included (sharp knives, nice pots & pans, measuring cups, cheese grater, blender, rice cooker, etc.). There are beach towels, boogie boards, coolers, etc. in the storage area. There's a convenient washer and dryer, a Weber grill and a large wrap-around deck for dinners outside. Everything is very well-maintained and comfortable. The owners are extremely friendly, accommodating and eager to help with any questions or concerns. The location is convenient, about halfway between Hilo and the Puna coast and just a few miles from and excellent Sunday Farmer's Market. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend the property to friends and relatives. Everything has been just wonderful!
