Welcome to the "House of Shimmering Water" - A two bedroom, two bathroom vacation rental located in Waiohinu (2 miles from Na'alehu) on the south-side of Hawaii's Big Island.

With the island's many diverse climates, the south-side offers some of the best weather and scenic beauty. Many of my guests have said that they feel like they are on top of the world when they arrive to the house.

It's truly the kind of paradise that you come to expect when visiting the Hawaiian Islands.

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

The home has 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths with an upstairs loft, patio (lanai), and covered parking on two private acres of grassland and tropical plants. The property's hillside location has breath-taking panoramic views of the ocean and valley below with some of the best weather on the island.

The interior has a natural wood decor with large sliding windows and is beautifully furnished with Asian/Zen-like furniture and artwork. Satellite t.v., a dvd movie and book collection, wireless internet, and a clock/cd radio is provided.

Each bedroom has a full-size (double-occupancy) bed with a skylight in the master bedroom. The master bathroom has a stone and tile interior with a shower/tub plus an extra large walk-in shower in the second bathroom. Linens & towels are provided.

The home is equipped with a full kitchen and a washer and dryer. There is also an outdoor BBQ and picnic area. The home supplies fresh county water (not water catchment) and has remote gate access. There are also several tame carribean sheep that can be seen grazing along the grassland.

LOCATION DESCRIPTION

Waiohinu translated into English is defined as "shimmering water". The town itself is a residential community located less than 5 minutes from Na'alehu in the Ka'u district of the Big Island which is approximately 1 hour from Kailua-Kona and 45 minutes from Hilo.

Local attractions include a nearby golf course, Big Island's only local winery, Punalu'u Black Sand Beach (Turtle Beach), Green Sands Beach (one of only two green sand beaches in the world), Volcano National Park, as well as several restaurants, galleries, and farmer's markets. The nearest beach is less than 10 minutes away and several hiking trails are walking-distance.

Also located a short distance away is South Point (the southern most point of the U.S.A), several natural hotsprings, Green Lake, and some great beaches for snorkeling and kayaking. Just one hour North of Hilo is Waipio Valley and the Hamakua Coast.

Big Island / Small Price / Beautiful Ocean Views on 2 Acres

Year Purchased: 2005

Why the Owner Chose Naalehu

It was our family's life-long dream to own a home in an environment like this.

The Unique Benefits at this House

You really do feel like you're on top of the world when you arrive to the house. It's truly an amazing experience to be able to wake up in the morning, look out at the horizon, and see 180 degree views of the ocean and valley below. The nights are just as beautiful with millions of stars that light up the sky. The location of the house has easy access to many attractions while still providing lots of privacy and solitude.

 

Owner's Map of Naalehu

I currently live in Northern California and frequently visit Hawaii on my free time. My mother was an active member of the Ka’u Preservation that continues to preserve one of the last remaining black-sand beachfronts on the Big Island which is home to an amazing ecosystem of sea turtles and other marine life.

    • Hi Aaron, I just wanted to write to say thank you and let you know that we had a wonderful time - your house is breathtakingly beautiful. My partner and I, definitely will be back when we have a chance to spend more time. It couldn't have been a better impromptu vacation. Cheers. Suzana

    • Aaron, We loved it! I believe our first words were "WOW"! You have a beautiful home in a wonderful setting/grounds. The week went way too fast! We found it easily. Suggestions/recommendations from you gave us a lot of good info. We did go to Kilauea Lodge, though not on Valetines, and it was delicious. We went to the Na'ahelu open market Wed. morning and got good produce. We can't think of any suggestions at this point, everything was well thought out. Also we can't imagine staying anywhere else on future visits to the Big Island. We just hope you'll have the availability at the "House of Shimmering Waters". Thank you again for sharing your home. Regards, Chris + Clint
