Ocean View and Sounds!
It would be difficult to find another property with this view and sound of the breakers hitting the cliffs below. We obsessively watched for whales and saw plenty. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! The only thing notably “wrong” was that the main house is also a rental and it sits very close to this one. If this was communicated in the listing, we didn’t catch it—it should be clearly communicated as it changes the experience at the house. When the other guests are outside, we could see everything they do. We were fortunate as there were other guests here only 2 days of our stay and they rarely went outside. We however, were outside 90% of the time watching for whales and enjoying the amazing views! The location and property is amazing!

Our stay was amazing. Watching the ocean waves and whales (in season) every morning and evening was memorable. The space is perfect for (2) couples or a small family. 20 minute drive to Hilo. Would very much recommend.

Paradise
The treehouse was magical! At the end of a cul-de-sac, gated we were in our own little world. Had multiple whales breaching and playing right off our lani. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay on the Hilo side of the island. Central for all the sightseeing places we wanted to visit. Home came equipped with everything we needed and more. We will definitely be returning!! Mahalo!!

This is a very easy review to write for our stay at the Treehouse at Hakalau -- five stars! Easy drive to the restaurants and shops in Hilo. Amazing hikes in the state parks up and down the coast. The dark blue sky at the observatory at Mauna Kea was super cool (figuratively and literally). Don't miss Volcanos national park, and we even spent a day doing the more touristy activities and beautiful beaches on the Kona side of the island. The local food trucks are great - best smoothies and fish wraps at What's Shakin'. We also had a blast watching the humpbacks breeching and playing right off-shore in front of the deck. We just had a great time at the Treehouse! Thank you!

Beautiful Quiet Ocean Cliff House
We had a terrific time staying here! We loved watching the birds, plants, geckos, stars, milky way, and waves. House was quiet, clean, and comfortable. There's lots to do within a short drive and the owners have a lot of great suggestions. Hakalau Beach Park is a short walk away(you do have to go up and down a slightly steep trail). Also close to Akaka falls and the fantastic Hawai'i tropical bioreserve and garden. Yes, the Island of Hawaii has bugs, but here they are very manageable, and not the kind that bite(and for some of us bug bites can be a problem). The owners have left some specific practical tips for how to make the bugs even easier to manage.

Really Nice But Needs AC
We really loved this place. Such a beautiful and quiet location. You could hear the ocean and lots of birds. It was lovely. However, the sun shines in the two sliding glass doors and it’s above a parking area. It got really warm. Well, I’d even say hot. Sweating hot. We ended up getting another room elsewhere for one night because it was so hot. It really wouldn’t cost that much to add a window unit or portable ac unit. Or at least have blinds or curtains over those glass doors. It really needs it to be comfortable. Otherwise, it was nice and had everything else one might need.
