The Malia Bree at Onomea
Enjoy Hawaii's beautiful ocean views and the tropical landscaping in this private home with gated entry. Our open-styled kitchen/family room with high ceilings and skylights provides for great family time and spacious comfort to relax in. Spend hours on the wrap-around deck enjoying the tropical breezes and Hawaiian ambiance.
Sit back and have breakfast on the lanai and be mesmerized by our spectacular sunrises, watch for the humpback whales from the patio, or see the cruise ships make their way toward Hilo. Be dazzled by our incredible night sky and plan for an evening of stargazing high upon Mauna Kea.
Centrally located in East Hawaii on the Onomea Scenic Route, often called the most beautiful place on the Big Island, you will find yourself in old Hawaii. Not a room, not a section, but the whole house is yours to relax in, with the heart of Hilo town about 10 minutes away, serene Akaka Falls and Honomu Town ten minutes away, and the must see Volcano National Park a scenic 45 minutes away.
The Hamakua coastine's best-kept secret is our unique tradewind weather that encourages most of the rainfall to occur in the early mornings and evenings, leaving the day fresh and clean with sunshine and breezes. You will not be disappointed by the colors, plants, museums, gardens, and tours. Many of our attractions comes with no costs other than your camera to help you savor your memories.
Vacationers and those here on business have loved the high-speed internet connection with wireless capabilities. Keep in touch with family and friends, instantly sending them pictures of your daily adventures. Our free long distance digital services adds another route to share moments and catch up with old friends. Slow down, relax, enjoy life, and take the time to re-connect.
Honeymoon, enjoy your keiki (children), or write a book. The ocean views, tropical landscaping, and peace of old Hawaii at the Malia Bree will surely inspire you to not only "Be On Vacation," but "Feel on Vacation"!

Ditto to what everyone else has said...except we didn't experience the wild pig! Viewing the night sky-including Jupiter from the visitor station on Mauna Kea was quite spectacular--also the Botanical Gardens and of course Volcano Nat'l Park. Enjoyed the diversity of this side of the island--now we're headed to Kona/Kohala to relax on the beach. The home was just delightful for us and or four young children!!! Jim and Jo Ellen

The soft sounds of the rain at night lulled us to sleep and the birds chattering woke us up every morning. It was truly a tropical retreat for us. The house is very comfortable and made a great base station for our daily treks. Guy, Leslie Anchorage, Alaska .... Laurie Washington, DC

Lindy & Tina, My brother and I had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful, peaceful, and quiet home Malia Bree. The setting and views are fantastic. Combined with the subtle sounds of the rain, birds, and other creatures, it was like being in a rain forest. Our stay here was refreshing, truly a nice getaway. Dealing with both of you was such a pleasure. I would highly recommend the Malia Bree to anyone. Time sure passes by quickly, however I will always remember my stay here. Mahalo, Dave San Diego, CA

We have traveled all over the world, and truely this home is one of the loveliest residences we've ever encountered. Thank you so much for sharing your home with total strangers. We have cared for it as if it were indeed our own home. The wild boar that acted as our alarm clock was delightful, we laughed ourselves silly. He made a slight mess, but I couldn't shoo him away. We are quite sorry to be leaving here. Thank you again. Remy and Gary

What a wonderful home in such a tropical neighborhood. This vacation home offers so much with a great location--loved the smoothies across the street and we loved the close proximity to Hilo and the Volcano. The rain at night soothed us to sleep. Thank you for such a clean organized home away from home. Warmest Aloha, Brooke, Josh Pattie and Dan
