Lovely home enjoyed all the kitchen amenities. The house was perfect space and the pool was wonderful to cool off.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was conveniently located with proximity to Hilo and Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The house was well-appointed with everything one would need. We particularly enjoyed the pool and outdoor space, which was very private.
This is a fantastic home. Very comfortable. The outside pool area is really relaxing. Kitchen is well stocked, beds and sofas are comfortable. Private setting with beautiful landscaping. We would definitely stay here again.
We had a great time staying here. The accommodations were exactly as described. We really enjoyed having the pool and the hot tub. It would be more convenient if there was an outdoor shower to rinse off before pool or hot tub. Loved this house. We will be back again.
Great house, extremely clean, quiet, and exactly as advertised. The grounds were really nice and well maintained. No issues whatsoever. Definitely recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying at Paradise Retreat. If was clean and well cared for. The pool and hot tub were a great bonus. It was hard to keep the kids out of the pool! It was close enough to Hawaii Volcanoes Nat'l park to go every day and really explore.
Absolutely perfect. We all 5 adults loved our stay. Home is well maintained and clean. Kitchen fully stocked with everything to cook and grill. Spa was so nice to relax in and spend time on Lanai. Highly recommend.

This rental was exactly what all rentals should be. The house was beautiful, the pool was perfect, and the vibe was Ola!!! Thank you so much.
Property was as wonderful as the pictures show. It was great to have space to spread out and be together. The family loved having the pool and the big yard to play in as well as the hot tub. The kitchen was well stocked for at-home meals. The only slight drawback is that there was the AC didn’t extend to the two smaller bedrooms so they got quite warm/humid for sleeping.

We have stayed at this rental for three years in a row. It’s a fantastic place to relax and is conveniently close to the volcano. We love spending time in the pool and jacuzzi. The rental is always clean and well-stocked. We highly recommend this vacation rental.
Fantastic property! Fully stocked with everything you need. Clean, comfortable, beautifully landscaped with a wonderful pool and hot tub. We were almost tempted to stay on the property the entire time we were on the big island. Close to Hilo, Volcanoes National Park, black sand beaches and waterfalls. The Paradise cliffs are just a few blocks away, and a wonderful place to watch the sunrise every morning. Property manager was responsive and available, They even mailed us a pair of eyeglasses that got left accidentally. Would definitely stay here again!

Very clean, quiet location, beautiful home with a great pool. It was awesome to have air conditioning. We go to the Big Island every year and this is one of the few Vrbo’s that we stayed at that has AC. Management team was awesome and went well out of their way to make sure our stay was enjoyable.
Very much enjoyed our two week stay in this house. Very secluded and quiet. The geckos at night chirping was so loud and enjoyable. The grounds of the house are so beautiful. Only issue was there is no rail on the pool. Made it difficult for my wife to get in and out of the pool. Enjoyed all the local small restaurants and we also cooked too. Made for a very memorable family trip.

We had a wonderful stay at Paradise Retreat, it was exactly what the title says, a Paradise retreat. We all enjoyed the pool and spa especially after a morning of snorkelling or sightseeing. The house was very clean and had all the amenities you would need. A fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. The beds were really comfortable and I can not fault the house in any way.
I can’t imagine needing anything else than what this house provided. The house was spotless and immaculate. The outdoor space was enormous, and also pristinely maintained. The little details around the property really made it feel like home - the local artwork, the Hawaiian decor (which was so comfortable). There were plenty of extras around the house so we didn’t need to shop to get extra supplies, small condiments, aloe, beach supplies (chairs, etc). The instructions for the house were very clear and the recommendations made for places to go were spot on (we went to several of them). Overall, this is probably the most idyllic place we have ever stayed. My 7 year old loved splashing in the pool and the hot tub was always nice and warm. We will definitely be back! Loved the house so much!

We enjoyed staying here in 2022 we had to visit again. This home is clean and had everything we needed.Just being on the property is so relaxing with the pool and jacuzzi.We liked the layout of the house so much we are looking into building one off of this design. Our family never felt crowded the complete stay was just wonderful. We plan to make this a yearly visit.Communication with Property management was prompt. We would definitely recommend this property.
The property was clean and well-maintained. The outdoor space was a true highlight, and we spent most of our time outside! The pool, lanai, lawn, and tropical plants created an ideal lounge space in paradise. The house is stocked with kitchen gadgets, linens, puzzles, games, pool toys, and lawn games. There were even a few pantry items, so we suggest checking in and assessing what is on hand before doing any shopping. We appreciated the eco touches (like solar panels, recycling, and composting). And every interaction with the Salt Water Vacations team was excellent! They are friendly, professional, and quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again!

This is the 3rd time we have stayed at the Paradise Retreat and again were not disappointed. The home is extremely clean and tidy, responses from on-island contact are always prompt and helpful. The pool was amazing as usual. This home exudes every bit of tranquility you could ask for and all the amenities to boot. Amazing roadside Huli Huli chicken stands, farmers markets and downtown Hilo are only minutes away as well as all the wonderful sights in Volcanoes National Park and on the other side of the island. We plan to continue to come back and stay at Paradise Retreat again and I highly recommend it to anyone else wanting a wonderful, extremely clean and fully stocked home to stay at while exploring all the Big Island has to offer.
