Great house and probably the most amazing views in all the Hawaiian islands. Cemille was a great host and highly recommend this property. Cannot wait to go back again!
Beautiful view of Waipio Valley, very comfortable house. Kitchen has every appliance you can wish for. The caretakers are really caring and made our stay really pleasant and they are very responsive.Mahalo for making our magic stay even more blissful.
This home has a stunning view. All four of us walked in then stopped in our tracks and just stared when we saw it. During our visit to the big island we also stayed in Captain Cook and Volcano and this location had the most âHawaiianâ feel of the three due to the lush, green surroundings along with the ocean view. Cemile and Derrick are the hosts and are helpful and responsive. Checkout was a breeze. The instructions were simply âenjoy your morning and leave by 11:00.â This home overlooks the Waipio valley and I highly recommend taking a tour of the valley.
Lovely spot with epic view of Waipio valley. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the property managers are friendly and helpful. The listing says the beach is just a 10 minute drive away ⊠and itâs true. But youâll need 4WD and nerves of steal. Itâs certainly worth it when you get to the beach.
Wow! Just wow! This property is amazing! The pictures do not begin to show the beauty of the view from this house! The grounds are meticulously kept! The fruit trees and plants, we had planned on going back to the botanical gardens outside of Hilo but there was no need, everything was growing right there! Is the House a little dated yes and I was a little uncomfortable with no coverings on the windows but there truly is no one else around. The house was super clean and the AC kept it cool which is what my biggest issue in booking was! The Host Cemille and Derrick are absolutely amazing! Fresh fruit every time we saw them! So nice and helpful! We hope to be back very soon!
This property had the best view on the whole island! It was almost too good to be true. This is your sign to stop searching, and just book this place! You do need a jeep or truck with big tires to get to the property and you have to drive very slow for the last few minutes of the journey, but itâs totally worth it. All of the plants and flowers and fruit trees were so beautiful! The rooms are a little outdated, but still very accommodating. Everything that we needed was there. Camile and her husband live downstairs and also manage the property so are there if you need anything. They are wonderful people. We truly enjoyed talking with them everyday and appreciate the fresh fruit that she brought us. Hope we get the opportunity to return one day!
A gorgeous and comfortable house overlooking the Waipio Valley. We loved waking up tot ye magnificent view and exploring Honokaâa, the Botanical Garden, Waimea and the beaches on the west side.
My husband and I stayed here years ago for our anniversary and loved it so much, we came back! We brought our family and some friends and their kids. It was a great set up for all of us. And lovely location! Breathtaking views of the valley and the ability to easily get to the quaint town of Honokaâa. We specifically chose this location so we could have a central spot to come back to after exploring parts of the northern area of the island. Highly recommend!
Unique setting overlooking the Waipio Valley. Stunning views in an immaculate well-appointed home with all you need to enjoy the serenity. Easy communication with owner and property manager made our stay a 5 star stop on our vacation. Weâll be back!
The waipi'o area is amazing. You must do the Shuttle tour. This house has a deck you never want to leave. Cemile is so helpful, kind, and interesting (even though you almost never see her or hear her.) This for sure is a return place for us some day.
Fantastic home. Clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The view was absolutely stunning. Cemile was so kind and available for anything we needed. Would absolutely return and stay longer.
Great location. We wanted seclusion and it did not disappoint. I see some reviews complaining about the road to the house but that is what I loved. The connecting road is a little steep and bumpy but to get away from the crowds or tourists' areas, I can put up with a little rough road. We rented a Jeep because we planned on going to hard-to-reach beaches, etc., and did not have any problems. I do have to mention that the description of the property is not correct on the Vrbo page. The very first words in the listing says, "Entire house", which is not entirely true. There are other people that live in the house on the first level. However, the care takers that live there are very nice people and helpful. They were helpful in getting us in the house because the door lock code that was sent to us was wrong/old. In addition, the book of instructions inside the house also has an expired code. These are all minor things that did not cramp our style at all.Thanks
This is an amazing home, with breathtaking views. The house is as advertised and more! Cemille and Derrick are amazing hosts who are available for whatever you need and truly fantastic people who love the beauty of this area. If you are looking for a place to stay that is quiet, secluded and an authentic Hawaii experience this is your place! The house itself is great for a good size family, we had 7 people and it was plenty of room. The outside shower was by far my favorite, an absolutely amazing way to start your day! Just a magical place. If you want a resort experience this is not the place for you, but if you want raw beauty and amazing accommodations this is the perfect place!
We really enjoyed our stay here. We wanted something off the grid with ocean views and this completely filled the bill. We were able to enjoy the shops and nearby businesses yet have time away for just family time.
Absolutely stunning views, Lots of amazing flowering plants all over the property. Derek was also really helpful answering questions and explaining things which was really appreciated.
Lovely place, amazing view. Property manager couldnât have been nicer. We spent our days exploring the island, resting, and enjoying the lovely lanai. Perfect.
Married 33 years Dan and Janet bought the property with Dan's brother John and wife Lori. Dan sold a home on Kauai at a golf course for this property with a beautiful view into the Majestic Waipi'o Valley and the ocean.
