There is also a laundry closet with washer and dryer close to the bedrooms for your convenience. Upstairs you will find an even more impressive view of the ocean from the covered lanai and from inside. Here is a living room, dining area and open kitchen. Also upstairs is a study, SMART TV and another bathroom with shower. The gourmet kitchen is finished with Quartz counters, stainless appliances, dishwasher and a Viking gas range, fun for cooks!.

Return to the big island
I brought my family to Hilo (to be followed by Kona) as it had been more than 20 years since my last visit. This house was a perfect choice--solitude with a stunning lava cliff coast...sitting on the deck overlooking the gorgeous water color and turtles swimming was beyond therapeutic. In addition, the lush yard in the front/sides did feel like authentic Hilo. The layout of the home was functional and decorated well and had a perfect vibe. I enjoyed my nights sleeping with the windows open (no AC) and listening to the ocean and rain showers and frog songs. Only negative was when the blinds are open at night when the wind picks up they tend to bump back and forth on the windows. Also, it's a bit of a drive to get into Hilo town but this is definitely tolerable because we sought solitude in a gorgeous location. Rental staff was accommodating and checked in with us by text, etc. I would definitely rent this home again if given the possibility (and will secretly dream of purchasing one similar to this one someday!)

Great view
We love the uniqueness of the house. The views were outstanding. We loved walking outside on the lava cliff walls when we got there. The only thing we didn’t like was a bit of drive to everywhere you had to go. But we were prepared to travel. It was a nice launching point for a lot of the things we wanted to do on the Hilo side.

The pictures do not do justice for how wonderful the house and the views are. You are right on top of the ocean and can watch sea turtles from the balcony. We can’t recommend the Maku’u Farmers market enough and really enjoyed Kaleo’s down the street. Overall wonderful stay!

great views and beautiful home
We had an amazing experience at this property! The unique and functional layout, with living space upstairs and bedrooms downstairs in an incredibly peaceful location, was absolutely perfect for two couples. The secured driveway with parking and above-average amenities were impressive additions. The unforgettable views of marine life from the lanai truly enhanced the overall charm of the place. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home, outrageously gorgeous view.
Do I really need to say more? The views are stunning. The house is amazing and the area surreal. Loved the proximity to all the gorgeous sites in all directions. Coffee on the porch in the morning was amazing! Truly a tropical paradise with birds constantly singing, rain touching the sky daily and you in the middle to see it all. Thanks for the vacation of a life time.

Slice of paradise
While already familiar with the area, we were astonished at the absolute beauty of this property. At least as good as advertised. We stayed 14 days and if boredome ever began, a few minutes being mesmorized by the view fixed that. Dont miss Pele's kitchen for breakfast. We will plan to return. Suggest a roll down shade or 2 for the deck and some pull down shades (like bedrooms) for the living area.

This property was amazing!
This property had so much personality and the views were stunning. We spent hours on the back deck relaxing and enjoying the view. The house is set up nicely and It was really well stocked so we didn’t have to spend extra money on some kitchen essentials. The heat in Hawaii definitely takes getting used to but there were plenty of fans provided to help alleviate that. The host was very responsive when I had questions. My only criticism would be the pillows were terrible and the beds could benefit from memory foam toppers to make more comfortable. I would highly recommend this rental if you love watching the ocean…we even saw dolphins 2 mornings in a row. If we return to Hilo this will be the house I would want every time.

Super cool house on the cliffs
We stayed 3 nights in May. Pros: The house was lovely, very cool to have the living space and the bedrooms on separate floors, the porches were great for coffee and happy hours. Well appointed kitchen. the guide books in the house were super! Awesome views from the house and the cliffs below. Cons: Trade off for the privacy is that the neighborhood the house is in is a 30 min from Hilo and most restaurants, sights, etc. So it took a while to get anywhere, definitely not walkable! And beware of the Coqui frogs! SO loud all night long making it hard to sleep. Bring ear plugs.

This place is a heaven and we cant get over it! Located by the gorgeous shoreline with enchanting sunrise views the home comes with all amenities you can possibly imagine. Kicthen is fully stocked (not even one thing is missing). Nice, bright lit 2 bedrooms downstairs + 3 bathrooms.Also has a mini library, board games, bluetooth sound system. We will definitely come back. My only gentle suggestion would be to update the upholstery.It contains damp smelll which goes away once you open the windows.

We really fell in love with this house
My husband, our daughters (13 and 15) and I spent five nights in this beautiful house in July 2022. The architecture is simply unbeatable beautiful: the round building, the covered outdoor staircase to the upper floor, the covered porch on the second floor ... The entire interior is very high quality, tasteful, beautiful and lovingly put together. You really find everything you need. The kitchen is also wonderful with the large gas stove and the generous equipment, dishes and glasses so nice that the food tastes twice as good. The beds are comfortable, the view gorgeous, the fans under the ceiling quiet, you can hear the sea rushing. The bathrooms are also individually designed and very pretty. Everything was absolutely clean and very well maintained. And the direct location on the sea was breathtaking. We really fell in love with this house. The nature on this side of the island and also on the property is lush and green and beautiful. Of course, part of that is that it rains frequently, but that didn't bother us at all. The rain was always warm and pleasant. We really enjoyed staying away from the resorts on the west side of the island. For this, we gladly accepted the longer drives across the island, for example, if we wanted to go to Kealakekua Bay or Hapuna Beach.

My family had a wonderful stay in the perfect location. Quiet and peaceful, watching waves and sea turtles. We couldn’t have asked for a better location and home to stay in. The board games were a pleasant surprise, as a family we play every night at home and it was wonderful to continue that. Thank you so much for sharing your property and allowing us to make more vacation memories.
