Need to know:
We are located in a rural, agricultural area, please be aware what that may offer. Adjoining properties host grazing cattle. Feral pigs are abundant and can be vocal. Chickens, roosters, ducks, geese, and others contribute to the polyphony.

Pets: Guests are requested to not bring pets with them, (we respectfully ask you coordinate PRIOR to booking if you desire to bring a pet/service animal) but we are owned by THREE awesome boxers. While they have freedom to roam, we prefer they not be invited into guest quarters. Most likely, they’ll look for you in the morning. Because of them, we ask you to double check that the gates are closed when entering or exiting the property.

Smoking: We are serious about being a non smoking property. That starts at the county road as you turn onto our drive. Of course, most rental cars are also non smoking so that’s a help. We would sincerely ask that if this presents a problem that you find a place you can more fully enjoy. Violators will be asked to leave - immediately, and billed accordingly if room needs additional cleaning.

Weather: Big Island Hawaii boasts 11 of the 13 climate zones in the world, each with unique ecosystems and weather characteristics. Elevation, pressure variations, rainfall, wind and topography combine to create distinctive microclimates within those climate zones. Climates you may encounter include the humid tropical zones, from sea level to 450 feet, the arid and semi-arid zones, the temperate zones, and the Alpine zones, chilly areas above 10,500 feet.This is not the Hawaii of Waikiki postcards. Rain is what keeps us lush and green. Our normal year rainfall is 120-140 inches. While mostly at night, this changes during the year. Our local temps range from a low of 59 to a high of 80. We have our own Davis weather station on site and accessible via web or iphone app for current conditions. For anyone interested in historical data regarding temperature, rainfall etc, please visit Weather Underground Link station KHININOL2

                            This is a great place to stay to get away from it all, relax, and be able to explore the whole island. North of Hilo, but close enough if you need or want to run to town or head to the volcano side. A nice easy drive to the Kona side for the beaches without having to stay in the Kona ratrace. Great location: beautiful, relaxing country setting, comfortable with great ocean view for enjoying your morning coffee. The owners are very nice, down to earth people.The accommodations are super clean and comfortable. We felt at home as soon as we walked in. if you are looking for a nice,relaxing, get away from it all, yet be able to do stuff location, this is the place to stay. The owners are great people to share your time with if you want to and are a good source for tips and suggestions about the area. The description of the property is accurate and honest.

                            Recommended for: Sightseeing, romantic getaway, girls getaway, adventure seekers, people with disabilities.

                            Owner response: We like the convenience of our location although I guess it could make decision making more complicated which way to go. Thank you for educating us on a part of the world we've never been and a lifestyle far removed from Hawaii. We hope you enjoy many return visits.

                            We had the pleasure of staying at this location a couple of times recently. This truely is paradise! The property is located away from the usual touristy spots. However, if it is tourist attractions you want to see, there are plenty nearby for viewing. The location has tremendous views of the Pacific Ocean. The property is clean and well maintained. The owners pocess a wealth of knowledge of the Big Island and all the plces to visit and eat. The beauty of this location is you have choices! If you prefer the quiet and just want to relax and get away from the stresses of work and tourist commitments, it is here. With a beautiful pool right outside your door, relaxing is easy. If you want to visit the many tourist locations available on the Big Island, you also have that option. The owners have seen all the attractions on the Big Island. So overall, this location gives you the best of both worlds. You can choose how busy you want to be on your vacation.

                            Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+, families with young children, adventure seekers, people with disabilities.

                            Owner response: Always a pleasure to have you guys visit and spending time. You always seem to enjoy your golf outtings while Frances gets to relax poolside. Hope we see you again soon.

                          Owner info

                          Year Purchased: 2003

                          About the owner: We come from a military background and large families. We have been blessed to travel and enjoy the world. David was stationed in Hawaii in 70's-80's. Sophie first visited in 1989. David always wanted to return to Hawaii but as happens, life kinda got in the way until a significant life event in the late 90's, then returning to Hawaii became our goal. For those that know, Hawaii lives in your heart. We just didn't move here, we came home.

                          Why the Owner Chose Ninole:
                          This is the home in our hearts. Coming from large families and from the East Coast, you know you want family and friends to be able to come and visit - and you want that visit to be special. So we custom designed and built this house accordingly. Crashing on the sofa or maybe the little room down the hall, doesn't cry out 'Vacation in Paradise', so we built to give our guests that experience. That design is the 4 box concept. One box is our Master Suite (located at one end of the house), one box the living room, kitchen & dining (located in the middle), one box the garage, and one box the Guest Suites (located at the other end of house). Those guest rooms should offer a vacation experience, completely self contained. Close enough to be part of the family, yet private enough to getaway, while enjoying the amenities of a private resort. Some say our house is like a private resort. Living here does feel like living at a private resort. We love it!

                          The Unique Benefits at this Studio:
                          A 'Vacation in Paradise' for our friends and family, but reality said those visits would be few and spaced out, so why not think to expand our family (ohana). So with just a bit more thought we designed two suites that are completely self contained. Be an active part of the family, lounge by the pool, talk story, walk the property, be as inclusive as comfortable. OR, be as private and to yourself as you wish. Come and go by the rear entrance and all we'll see is your car coming or going. YOUR choice. Peaceful relaxation poolside while taking in gorgeous view of the Pacific. Watch the whales when in season. Welcome to paradise.
