Great view

Great neighborhood. Quiet and beautiful view. This was a great location for what we wanted to do. Comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen. My only problem was we were trying to play games at the dining table and the lights were very dim. We used our cell phone flashlights to light it up more.

Great out of town location

This was a great house in an out of town location for those looking for peace and quiet. No cell signal really and the beaches are more rocky than sandy but the locals are nice and there is a great farmers market. The house was awesome and communication with the owners was stellar.

Wonderfully off the map!!!!

I wanted to be able to relax and cleanse from my Oahu life, for my 30th birthday. I couldn't have found a better place! Mahalo nui loa e Andre! We were truly "off the map", which is what I wanted. There was more than enough room for my ohana to be comforable. The value is beyond words! Only recommendation I have: darker curtains in the downstairs master bedroom. Other than that WE LOVED EVERYTHING!!!!

Comfortable and Accomodating

Andre was extremely accomodating. We had a booked at a hotel in Hilo, only to find out that is was not such a nice place to stay. I contacted Andre at 7pm and on the same night, we were arrived to this rental. We booked the two studios as the 3 bedroom was taken. None the less, we spent two nights here. The beds were comfortable. Lynn was very informative about things to do. They have information for local services like a personal chef, massuse, or tour guide available at the rental. We had a great time while we were there, and were much more comfortable staying here than the place we had originally booked in Hilo. The prices are unheard of. Our stay was very reasonably priced. A word about Hawaii... there are bugs and they are to be expected. If the lights are on, they will come. Lynn was nice enough to warn us about this. We quickly understood what she was talking about. If you are afraid of bugs, this is not the place for you. We were not expecting the bugs so it was a bit of a surprise for us, but we dealt with it by keeping the doors shut and the screened windows open. The rental itself, is clean and modern and comfortable. The beds were comfortable. We would stay here again. We had a great time. Thanks Andre & Lynn.

My family of 4 had a wonderful stay for two nights at this property. The home was spacious and well-stocked, and the location was perfect for exploring the Kalapana/Pahoa/Pohoiki area. Check in was a breeze, and communication from the owners was extremely helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

Unique place to stay

We enjoyed this house. It is really unusual in a good way. The whole area is very earthy and unique. This house fit the 5 of us easily and has what you need. We drank the water through a Britta, but they suggest you don’t. Keep that in mind if you are worried about it. The thermal pools are a variety of hot temperatures. They would be more fun when it is cool out. We happened to go when it was hot. The views from MacKenzie State Park are amazing, and the beach nearby has a little bit of a steep hike down (we didn’t have trouble) and clothing optional…keep that in mind. Overall, the space is great. The covered porch is wonderful in the morning. The hosts were helpful as well.

Peaceful and relaxing

This great property was home base for our recent week in Hawaii. The house itself is lovely and open, with lots of room for our family of 4. We loved having breakfast on the lanai, and popping down the street (10mins) to sit in the ocean thermal pools at Isaac Hale in the mornings. It is a ways outside of Hilo, so if you’re looking for something close to it all, this is not it - but we found it just as easy to travel into Hilo, the volcano national park, and even Kona on various day trips. Then to come home to our space and have a home-cooked meal. Would highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for peace and relaxation during your Hawaiian stay.

We had a great time at the big house. Plenty of space to spread out. Incredible lanai, walkable neighborhood, and beautiful scenery. FYI The house is shared with two other tenants, so we had to try to manage the kid noise, but otherwise we had an awesome stay. We will definitely be back!

Peaceful Home

We are a family of five and stayed here for five nights in August. The pictures don't do the house justice. I suggest the owners post more photos of their beautiful home. We were very comfortable and revelled in the spaciousness. The kitchen is upstairs, which is different. My only complaint is that there isn't a dishwasher, so we had to put the kids on dish duty. There isn't air conditioning but plenty of fans. After you open the windows, there is a wonderful breeze and the rooms cool off. The only night it felt a little warm was when it was raining and the humidity was high. We were unable to open two windows for more air, but we survived just fine. A number of people complain about the coqui frogs who call out to each other most of the night. It is true, they can be loud, (I brought ear plugs). I would much rather fall asleep to frogs and wake up to a rooster than to traffic and loud music any day. We took advantage of the large porch for reading and just enjoying the quiet. If you happen to be up late at night, look to the sky, and you'll see the Milky Way and all the stars. Mila the housekeeper was very helpful. The house was spotless when we arrived. It is located in a more remote area, about 20 minutes from Pahoa, but we didn't mind. We enjoyed exploring the area.

Spacious and comfortable home

Home is spacious and very comfortable and was very clean. Beds were very comfortable. The only downside was no AC. The fans and ocean breeze help greatly though, but at times it can be very warm inside. Owner was great to work with.

big-spacious house. a tad far from east side island activities and Hilo. would have liked bbq cleaned and grill supplies. we took care of it. house was clean. lanai wonderful. However, one of the kids woke up one morning with insect bites all over his back. First morning, i had bites all over my feet. maybe this is coinicidence and unrelated to the house? not sure though. liked the activity list on the fridge. owner was nice and greeted us on arrival. big island is beautiful.

Roomy, comfortable home near Kalapana.

Great location to use as home base to explore the volcano area and a few isolated, uncrowded beaches along the Kalapana/ Pahoa coastal area. The home was clean and tidy! We loved sitting out on the lanai in the morning to have our Hawaiian breakfast with fresh pineapple and Portugese sausage!
