About this property

Kaloli Sunrise by the Sea - private pool, lanais, and home!

Kaloli Sunrise by the Sea sits just across the road from the big blue Pacific Ocean in a charming neighborhood on Hawaii's Big Island. Enjoy the wrap around, upper lanai with views of tropical landscaping and our private swimming pool. Dip into the pool anytime and cool down after travel adventures around the inspiring island. Fall asleep to the sound of the ocean, just across the street.

Kaloli Sunrise is a two story house with all the living areas on the second floor. The ground floor has a garage and laundry room, both for your use. The house has two bedrooms and hosts up to five guests. The primary bedroom has a large, four poster California king size bed, ensuite bathroom with two sinks, and a walk-in shower. The guest bedroom has a queen size bed and an XL twin bed. The second full bathroom is near the guest bedroom. There are all the pots, pans, utensils, and dishes that you would need to cook and enjoy local produce in the kitchen.

The swimming pool is above ground with a surrounding deck with a few lounge chairs. We provide pool towels. The upper lanai also has two dining tables with chairs so you can sit and dine overlooking the pool OR the backyard landscape. We provide a binder in the house with loads of local recommendations, adventure hikes, restaurants, and favorite things to do. We hope you enjoy Kaloli Sunrise by the Sea as much as we do!

Book with confidence—this is a licensed, legal vacation rental managed by professionals with decades of local experience. Always double check that you are booking a place that is operating legally in Hawaii - no surprises, just aloha!

Mahalo for your review, Shanelle. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. AC very rare in our area, where year round high temps rarely reach 83 degrees, and lows are in the 60s. We do manage a couple of condos that offer it, though. Give us a holler next time you plan to visit and we can point you to those properties :-) Warmest Aloha, The Salt Water Hawaii Crew Salt Water Real Estate, Hilo HI

The house is roommy, fresh, and very clean. Our family of four had a great time. If I were to nitpick I would mention the roof. Sometimes it makes crackling noise as if somebody is walking on top of the house. We got used to it by the second or the third day of our stay.

Simply put - This property exceeded our expectations by a mile as did the supremely kind people at Salt Water Hawaii Vacations. When looking for a VRBO, people want accurate descriptions they can trust. You can trust what you see on the page. The grounds are lovely and beautifully maintained. The house was immaculate. The kitchen had what we needed and my daughter loved the Viking stove. The pool was clean. The washer and dryer was clean and well maintained. Although there isn't air conditioning (and I hate sleeping hot) it was not a problem because the breeze flowed through the house (that surprised me). My daughter said her bed was the more comfortable than any VRBO property, resort or hotel we have ever stayed in. Thank you, Tara (hope I spelled you name correctly) for making my family feel welcome.

A true Hawaiin Gen

Everything about this home is beautiful and stellar. It is subsided enough in a quiet neighborhood right across from the ocean yet in a good location to get around the Big Island. We’re had the pleasure of a tsunami warning during our stay. The communication from the host company was amazing and they were there to help answer any and all questions during the event and anytime during the stay. I use VrBO frequently and this was one of my best experiences. Mahalo!

Ambiance & privacy

A delightful house on a quiet street. Good air circulation in the house (no AC), so open all the many windows and relax on one of two lanais while the interior cools down. The evenings were quite pleasant: Comfortable beds & evening bird/frog songs through the night (bring earplugs for sleeping!) Kitchen was well equipped. The pool was a fabulous way to relax after a long day of sightseeing. Would definitely recommend!
