Swim Under your Mika Taki Waterfall, in the Clear Cool Spring Fed Pond
Location: Hilo, Hilo District, Big Island, Hawaii, USA (Reeds Island; right in Heart of Hilo, yet Secluded)
Accommodations: Estate, 4 Bedrooms, 4.5 Baths (Sleeps 8)
You want luxury... YOU'VE GOT IT! The most fantastic home in Hilo, right on a pristine stream with huge spring-fed swimable ponds. You can swim up to and under 2 waterfalls. A truly inspired interior, made aesthetically inviting by an expert interior design team. Mika Taki contains the ultimate in amenities, antiques galore, Japanese motif, views, spacious. You will not believe the attention to detail. Like staying in a private five-star hotel!! In Hilo, yet fully surrounded by nature and beautiful grounds, over one acre of tropical splendor. Look no further, it has it all. Why stay in a hotel when you can immerse yourself in such beautiful, memorable surroundings.
Because Mika Taki is furnished with Japanese antiques and lots of glass, it is not appropriate for children under age 8 and no more than 2 children at a time. We suggest you look at our other houses which are more casual and fun for the young ones. (Mika Kai - VRBO listing #16924 or Mika 'Alua - VRBO listing #46139).
Note: Mika Taki is in a residential neighborhood and to be good neighbors we do not rent the house for large parties. We do not allow more than a total of 12 people on the property at any one time - subject to loss of deposit.

"Mahalo for opening your home to us!! We thoroughly enjoyed our Hawaii vacation! We loved our stay. We were able to visit many wonderful sites on the Big Island. Staying in your home made it so much easier for our family, as compared to our stay in a hotel in Kona. We love the Big Island with all its wide variety of flora, fauna, climates and sights to see. Mahalo."

"It is always a blessing to come into a beautiful and peaceful home. Our family's get-together celebrating our grandson's high school graduation was enhanced by the 'home' you provided with all the loving ambiance inside and outside. Noi and Jamie, thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful 'heaven'. May this place lend more magical moments to everyone who stays here...I pray that you will continue to lend your aloha to others who desire to have a quiet, relaxing and enjoyable experience at Mika Taki."
