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!

We do manage a couple of condos that offer it, though.

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.

Time in paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our time spent in paradise. This beautiful home has a wraparound deck, which we love to have dinner on and our coffee in the morning. Views of the ocean from our deck and a short walk, leads you to the most beautiful spot to watch the sunrise each morning. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and the quiet of this location. The neighbours were so friendly I would wave to you as they walk in the morning. It was easy to get to the main road and to Hilo. We hope to return someday soon and recommend this beautiful spot to anyone who is looking for a local experience.Thank you so much for taking such good care of us while we were there! All the best from Canada! Mahalo🌺

The house is comfortable in a really nice neighborhood across the road from the ocean. You can see a tiny keyhole view through the neighbors trees, but I would not consider it an ocean view. It is however a very short walk to a path that leads to the ocean. There is a wonderful lanai on the property but no lounge type chairs to enjoy the sunrise, only the table and chairs for meals. The roof is extremely noisy throughout the day and night as the metal roof expands and contracts with temperature changes. A way to access the garage from the ground floor would also be nice. For example a wireless keypad. The pool was beautiful but a bit frigid during our stay.

Mahalo for your review, Kim. We are sad to see such a low rating and would be so grateful if you could send us a message and let us know why. We don't consider the little sliver an ocean view either, which is why we don't advertise it as such. The new roof does make some noise during temperature changes throughout the day, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do about that. Out here folks need to keep the roofs updated or else rust and leaks will develop. It sounds like you did have a nice time overall, and we are very happy for that :-) Warmest Aloha, The Salt Water Hawaii Crew Salt Water Real Estate, Hilo HI

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!

Nice house, no ocean view

This is a hard review. The home and pool are very nice but we rented for the promise and picture of the ocean.

Mahalo for your review, Robin. We are terribly sorry that Kaoli Sunrise did not meet your expectations. Future guests should note that this home, while right across the street from the ocean, does not offer an ocean view due to foliage on the properties on the other side of the street.

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!

Loved our stay

The house is in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Throughout the day, you get the relaxing sounds of nature with the waves crashing, numerous birds, frogs, and, my personal favorite, some rooster crows. The neighborhood is very friendly and there are always people out for walks and bike rides.The space is large and comfortable. The pool is much larger than expected, great for swimming, relaxing, or playing at any time of day. Spending time on the lanai is perfect in the heat of the day with a cool breeze coming off the ocean. We received a friendly message from our maintenance contact before our check in time but had no need to reach out.
