🌺 The Authentic Island Experience
Casa by the Sea offers a unique, immersive nature experience rather than a traditional, cookie-cutter resort stay. We pride ourselves on offering an unforgettable, budget-friendly adventure for travelers with an open mind and a love for nature.
Because we are immersed in a vibrant ecosystem, you will experience the authentic sounds of the island. You will likely hear free-roaming roosters, tropical birds, and frogs at night. The house is set far back from the road behind a natural vegetation buffer, ensuring excellent privacy and a wonderful "treehouse" feel.

📋 House Rules & Disclosures
* Maximum Stay: 7 nights.
* Hawaii Wildlife & Gecko Disclosure: Embracing the Tropics—Our treehouse is located in a lush, natural environment near Hilo & Volcano. You will likely encounter local geckos during your stay. In Hawaii, geckos are a celebrated and welcome part of the local ecosystem. Geckos are beneficial to Hawaii homes primarily because they act as natural, free pest control by eating common household bugs like cockroaches, ants, spiders, and mosquitoes. They are completely safe, clean, and viewed as harmless roommates and cultural symbols of good luck and protection!
* Resident Cats & Property Wildlife:
* Resident Cats (Nala & Torte): We maintain a managed feeding station on-site for my two friendly, fully socialized resident cats as well as a small feral colony which most likely you will not encounter.
* Cat House Rules: Nala & Torte are strictly outdoor cats. Please keep doors securely closed to prevent them from slipping inside. You may see them roaming the property—they love hanging out and sleeping on the deck! Please be kind to them, but do not feed them or allow them inside the rental house at any time.
* Treats & Feeding: The cats are on a strict, healthy diet. Please do not feed them human food or table scraps. If you would like to give them approved treats, just reach out.
* Important Safety: Please do not lock the cats inside the rental or any downstairs enclosed areas when you close up.
* Local Wildlife: You may also see wild chickens and roosters roaming the property. For everyone's safety, please do not feed or disturb any of the local animals.
* Property Security: For guest safety and property protection, exterior security cameras are active on the grounds only. They are located at the property entrance/driveway, the front door/steps, the cat station (staff only), and the back propane shed (staff only). There are no cameras inside the home.
* Registration: STVR-19-365359 / NUCR-20-1838
