180 Degree Ocean Views In New Spacious Garden Retreat With Pool

We arrived very late at night and found the location without problem. It is a bit of a hike to/from either side of the island, the speed limit is part of the cause, the speed limit varies between 35-55. The home is very well equipped, from linens to appliances, space and furnishings, and of course the pool. The grounds are well kept and beautifully planted. The view of the sunrise over the ocean is serene, it makes for a fantastic time lapse video. The nearest town was just fine for our needs, a post office, library, and sweet bread bakery is all one really needs. :-). All of the above and more made this home perfect for our group.

We are going to miss waking up to this beautiful view every day. The pictures do not do this home justice. All the plants and view are much more beautiful in person. We stayed here for 6 nights and wish we could stay longer. Many beaches around Naalehu that are just spectacular. Everything on this island is gorgeous. I cannot get the Big Island out of my mind! Will definitely stay here again.

The house was in a great location, clean, comfortable, had everything we needed and the pool and view were the best. We throughly enjoyed our stay, we would totally book again.

This beautiful, out of the way property is where we spent a lovely week during our time on the Big Island. There was plenty of space for two couples, plus plenty of room if there had been more! The kitchen was well appointed and we cooked most of our breakfasts here, and a few dinners (after a stop at the Farmers Market in Hilo and Suisan Fish Market!). After being in Waikiki and suffering in an apartment that never got below 78 degrees, we were delighted with the ocean breezes that traveled through this home and made it very comfortable. The lanai is where we spent most of our time, including incredible nighttime star gazing! A few dips in the pool after hikes were wonderful, too.

You will not need anything additional here. Plenty of towels for pool/beach use, soft-sided coolers for lunches, washing machine/dryer, grill ... I really cannot think of anything we wished we had! Communication was quick and prompt when we had questions. Thank you for everything and we hope to return to the Big Island someday!

Our family (two adults, two teens) stayed at the house for three days, and were very happy with the choice of the location. After the first few days spent in and around Kona, a more secluded nature of the spot was more than welcome. Plenty of space for everyone in the house, and the setting of the house is perfect--a beautiful little garden surrounding the structure, empty lots both to the right and to the left of the house (we barely saw or heard any neighbors while we were there!), and--just as advertised--no other dwellings between the backyard and the ocean, just the pool and the trees beyond. My teens were, quite predictably, completely taken in with the pool which gave adults a chance to lounge around and sip wine and watch sunsets in the evenings, or even sneak out for a short outing to the green sand beach (don't miss it--an amazing sight!) The black sand beach is only 15 minutes away, so we went there twice, first time just to check it out, and the second time to snorkel (go very early if you can--virtually no people, but lots of sea turtles swimming around!) The little town nearby is pretty cute and has a very decent bakery and local fruit and vegetable stands. At the same time, the location is not too isolated to allow for relatively easy longer outings, to Hilo and to the national historic parks south of Kona. All in all, highly recommended!
