Blue Makai
This is a classic Hawaii oceanfront home. If you're looking for modern, then this isn't for you. Reminds me of how the Big Island was when I was a child.... which is exactly what we were looking for. Was everything the listing shows it to be. Peaceful location. We would come back to this home again.

We had a great time. It's right on the ocean, the kitchen had everything we needed for some ambitious meals, and the sliding doors were a pleasure to operate.

Restorative retreat
Blue Makai was everything we were looking for -- private, beautiful, low key residential street. If you want to be near night life, music, or able to easily walk to dinner or shop at unique local businesses, etc, this is NOT the place for you. The closest places to really purchase food (the General Store is very bare bones) are malls with chain stores in big resorts that are almost 10 minute drive at minimum. That said, its isolation was part of what made it heaven for us. We loaded up on groceries and cooked IN every night, watching the sunset over the gorgeous ocean and lava rock. Terrific host, helpful check in, every desired amenity and incredible location on the water with tide pools, snorkeling and turtles right out the back door!

The best home!
I almost hate to leave this review, since I want to return again and again and don't want other people to book it up before me! This is the house I have been looking for in Hawaii. On the water, quiet, a real home. The kids played in the tide pools all day long, we ate every meal outside on the porch, and the management company was easy to work with and responsive. We have stayed in a lot of places in Hawaii (condos, homes, resorts) and this is by far my favorite. Hoping to return next year

Secluded beach retreat with lots of turtles
Great place to stay. There are loads of turtles on the beach every night and a few to swim with during the day. Very secluded, we saw 3 people all week. Thank you for sharing your little piece of paradise with us!

Turtle Beach
Our time in Hawaii at this home was perfect! Everything about it from the home itself, where is was located, incredible snorkeling beaches 5 minutes away and the friendly neighborhood market just down the street made our vacation amazing. But what was truly the highlight was the herd of 30 or more turtles that came to visit and frolic in the water right in front of the home! I can't say enough about our trip. Mary our contact person was spot on with her knowledge of the area and was available when we needed her. The huge porch of the home is where we spent all of our down time. With August being the hottest month the porch provided the shade and the ocean provided the breeze making it ideal for hanging out. And the beds are really comfortable and cozy. Okay I've said enough. Just book this place you won't regret it!!!

Great house
We stayed here for 3 weeks and we had a great time. The ocean is behind the house, the lawn is great for the kids to play and the house very comfortable for our family. A great find!
