Incredible ocean views right out your back door. Everything was amazing, including how well stocked everything was from dishes and pots and pans the knives to beach towels, the chairs for the patio, you name it this place had it.

The only place to stay on the Big island
This is my second stay at this property, I love the property. If you want to be in the middle of the action this is not the place if you want to lay back and enjoy the island this, is it. 1 hour away from VNP and an hour from Kona if you need to go into town, close enough to Hilo for a day trip as well. The small pool and view cannot be beat to complete the deal. The house is great, the bedding is nice, plenty of towels, kitchen is very well stocked. I cook most of our meals. Yoga mats everything you need for day beach trips. It's the perfect place to relax and recharge.

To best describe a stay here - draw a 3 inch circle. This circle is everything you do in life - work, play, eat, sleep, social gathering, moving around - everything. Now hit a spot with the pen - just a little dot, about 1/4 inch outside the circle. This is it - everything away from you but within reach IF you need it, but all peace and quiet and calm and comfortable. Just so nice and the opportunity to totally disconnect. Loved it!!!

The definition of perfect
The definition of perfect in two words - Rick's Place. I honestly don't know how this property could be any better. The house and property, the view, and the location are absolutely ideal. That said, this property probably isn't for everyone due to its remote location. However, if you are looking for peace and quiet, an incredible ocean view, and a house that is well apportioned with everything you could possibly need, then this is your place. You can see whales, turtles, and whatever else decides to make an appearance in the ocean right off the lanai. The geckos and yellow bills were fun to watch. Rick's Place is a special property and I cannot say enough good about it. My partner and I are looking forward to coming back.

A little slice of heaves....
Rick's Place is phenomenal! Process was smooth from start to finish. Can't say enough good things about this home! We arrived after dark and didn't realize there would be such a long a drive down to sea level BUT it was so worth it when we arrived! Dan had the house lit up and wonderful Hawaiian music playing for us. The outside lights with motion sensors guided us in with no issues. We were surprised to find the home so open with the sea air and breeze flowing in all windows. This ended up being one of our most favorite things about the place, just the fresh sea air! We unpacked quickly and rested only to wake up to the most beautiful view. The pictures in the post don't do it justice. The waves crashing on the lava wall became our favorite sound both day and night. We enjoyed sitting out on the overlook reading and watching for fish and whales and just the peaceful calm that goes along with Rick's place. We saw dolphins, reef sharks, fish, boats, swimmers and even scuba divers (at night too!) The pool was great!We had plans to explore the island but ended up rearranging our itineniary to accommodate being at the house most days which felt like home to us! Dan was responsive to our needs and an excellent host seen by the home's detail and can say it was the best stocked vrbo we've ever been to and I am not kidding! Outdoor shower was heavenly! If you're thinking about booking just do it, what a magical, beautiful place! Thank you Dan, we will be back!!!Mike and Angie

Supreme relaxation
Our 4th time to stay here. Love the location and listening to the surf at night. We saw all kinds of marine life as well as cardinals, mynas and other birds. A windy road getting in and out,but all part of the experience. Dan is a great host, available if needed. The closest town,Ocean view, is a nice place to go for dinner or groceries.
A great place to go for relaxation and away from the party crowd.

Could write a book about this place. Such a quiet, relaxing & comfortable place, not to mention the amazing view! If you need a place to recenter & rejuvenate, this is it! Stayed for 5 nights & never left the whole time. Kitchen & grill perfect for making meals. The outdoor shower is to die for!
Dan is an absolute perfect host with great attention to details of this lovely hale. Kitchen dishes, pots & pans were clean & nice; towels were thick & soft; bed was super comfy.
If we're lucky enough to come to the Big Island again, we will definitely plan a stay here. Mahalo, Dan, for sharing such a wonderful home!

A piece of paradise—shared!
Excellent property! Probably the most well-equipped rental we’ve stayed at. Everything has been thoughtfully curated to make one’s stay enjoyable—it’s not fancy but immensely comfortable. The setting is fantastic—right on the ocean with a delightful plunge pool and plenty of shade if needed. It’s pretty private—minimal noise from intermittent construction and a rental house two lots over. Bring your food with you as the nearest stores are 15 or so miles away and carry the basics. Then settle in for a relaxing time! The night skies are awesome. The host Dan was accessible and helpful.

Incredibile and relaxing stay!
My husband and I stayed at Rick’s place for my 30th birthday and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The house had stunning views from every room and the area was peaceful and quiet. As soon as we arrived, we loved Rick’s place so much that we canceled the rest of our plans and decided to stay there the whole trip. We didn’t miss a single sunset or sunrise and even saw a pod of dolphins! Our host Dan was super responsive and so welcoming. We will absolutely be back!

This place was perfect. It is so quiet there! We loved the small pool to cool down in. The view was wonderful. I personally loved all the extras in the kitchen! It is so nice not to have to buy a whole variety of spices! I cooked all our meals and that stove is wonderful! We ate well, rested, laughed and had a wonderful time. Thank you so much! Oh I do have some advice…. Wear mosquito repellent!!! Even if you think they are not out. Wear it! I did not. And I suffered from it! Totally my fault though!!! This place is still worth it!!

Another Amazing Stay
This was our second time at Rick’s Place and we were not disappointed. We stayed on the property 3 days and explored the island other days but made a point to be back to see the gorgeous sunsets. Dolphins came by almost every day, and we even saw a shark. Dan is an amazing host and easy to deal with. We really enjoyed connecting our iPhones and playing Spotify through his stereo system. Nothing better than listening to your favorite tunes while enjoying the incredible views from the patio deck. The outdoor shower is so relaxing. We look forward to coming back for another relaxing vacation.

Ricks Place was Incredible!! We had a Great time and if we were just to relax here that would have been fine! Very comfortable with everything you need except food and theirs 2 markets just 11 miles to the south! Only here 6 nights but could have stayed much longer!

True paradise
Wow! The only critique of this place is that the pictures do not do it justice. Seeing the beautiful green roof as we came down the mountain was exciting. While the home is beautiful, the first moment that we walked out the back door, we were in awe of the ocean beating against the cliffs. We had a high surf warning, and enjoyed a front seat to the waves splashing against the volcanic rock on the patio. It was a wonderful welcome, and instantly put us in awe of the beauty of the area. This home is wonderfully located between Volcanoes National park and Kona. However, getting to Hilo was not an inconvenience. Being in the southern area of the island, it was easy to make both sides of the island very attainable. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend visiting Volcano National Park, Richardson’s Ocean Park and Rainbow Falls in Hilo, the Green Sand Beach, Black Sand Beach, and spending a day enjoying Kona as well. We rented a boat from Kona boat rental, and enjoyed snorkeling at Captain Cook and taking in the ocean. Couldn’t have been a more enjoyable experience and true getaway!! Thank you, Dan, for opening your home, and providing hospitality along the way.

オーナーについて
オーナー : Dan Lewis
I live on a nine acre farm above Milolii by the Highway. I made the big leap across the ocean from the tiny Northern California town of Angels Camp. I am now a full-time Hawaii resident. I have been a business owner all my working life. I had a fishing tackle/marine/gas station/mini mart deli on a lake for 20 years and I was also a partner in a stone masonry sales and manufacture yard as well as a mobile lube company. I enjoy meeting new people and love to meet my guests. I have made so many new friends from all over the country and world. I find this my favorite thing about sharing this home with others.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
Why is the house called Rick’s Place? The house was purchased from my good friend from Maui, Rick, who built it. For years, I would visit Milolii with him. Rick is an ultra-cool, amazingly artistic guy, and the architecture of the house shows his artistic flair and creativity. I have been blessed with friends and family who have helped us make it a truly loved special place, with most of the artwork furnished by talented friends.
この宿泊施設の特徴
The first time I visited Milolii, I wondered where where I was going, as I drove down the long road across the lava flow. But once I was sitting on the deck, overlooking the blue ocean and watching the humpbacks against the background of a red sunset, I understood the magic of the place. I helped Rick install the pool several years later, and that really made the house perfect. I'm pretty sure there is not another ocean front house anywhere in Hawaii or even in the USA with a private pool that is an affordable vacation rental. I love this house and you will be able to tell. It's not one of those vacation rentals furnished with cheap furniture and bare minimum of kitchen stuff. It is very well appointed and I do my very best to make sure you are comfortable in every way.
