About this property

Paradise Ocean View, 2Br/2Ba

This oceanfront, cliff-side property has all the views that you could ask for in a Big Island getaway! Located in Hawaiian Paradise Park, this 2 bedroom/2 bath home has views of the Pacific from all living areas. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware and dinnerware to make this feel like your home away from home. Off the kitchen, there is open space with unobstructed views of the ocean, perfect for morning yoga, being lazy, or as a play space out of the sun. Email your friends about your Hawaiian vacation from the convenient work area on the 1st floor – unless you get distracted from pressing “send” by the sounds of the waves outside. Next to the kitchen is the TV and lounge area, an ideal place to take in a vacation movie while still being able to feel the ocean breeze.
There is also a queen sleeper sofa downstairs.
On the ocean side of the house, there is a grassy area perfect for catching some rays or watching the waves crash against the lava rock. The property extends beyond the white fence, to where the lava rock meets the ocean. (Do not swim in water off cliffs – dangerous waves and rocks).

The bedrooms are located on the 2nd floor and each have an entrance to the upper lanai that faces the ocean. There is a TV, desk, and ample closet space in each room. The upper lanai has a seating area perfect for enjoying drinks while you count the whales. You will find a cozy reading area on the 2nd floor landing, if you need a break from whale- and turtle-watching. For your spontaneous trips to one of the nearby beaches, large beach towels are provided. The house is ideally located for easy day trips to Volcanos National Park, Hilo, the many beautiful waterfalls, and other attractions.
This vacation house truly has a paradise ocean view that you’ll want to make part of your Hawaiian getaway tradition!

Great location

Beautiful spot on the lava cliffs over looking the ocean. Even saw a whale!House is lacking in many things! Terrible pillows, shower leaked, no batteries in the TV’s remote, no ice, washing machine broken. So many little things that could have made it better such as salt and pepper, filtered water, etc

Surf sounds for a week

Wonderful place overlooking black lava cliff in a quiet neighborhood with nothing but sounds of crashing surf and coqui frogs at night. Beautiful deck and breezy view, easy drive to shopping, farmers markets and restaurants. Super convenient interaction with host, zero problems. Would definitely stay again and for longer!

Ocean Views, Sunrises and Breezes

We loved our stay. The ocean view, breezes and nighttime showers, singing frogs, and every morning awaking to the sunrise over the water were all about life on the island. The property was very clean, private, and quiet, with all the amenities of home. We would gladly return. Our only disappointment was that there was no good patio furniture downstairs or patio lounge chairs.

Relaxing in paradise

Arrived at the beautiful location. The house was clean and we automatically opened the windows and took in the view. Hearing the ocean crash against the rocks. I even spotted a spinner dolphin the next morning. I agree with the other guests that I wish one of the rooms had a bigger bed but it didn't effect our stay at all.

Another piece of paradise.

Overall the property was very nice. Clean and tastefully decorated with plenty of room to spread out for us 4 adults. Whales and porpoises were a common treat to see. Interacted with the property manager regarding a small issue and was amazed that they got the issue addressed and corrected quickly even though it turned out to be something actually out of their control. We have stayed in this area before and enjoy its convenient location and beauty.

Beautiful location

Beautiful property, right on the ocean. House is very clean and well appointed. About 30 min from downtown Hilo. Which is as perfect for us. Very quiet neighborhood. I recommend it! Never been to the big island. Visited the Kona side once during the week. Although the Kona side provides more attractions and activities. The Hilo side is very tropical and beautiful in comparison.

Wonderful in every way

The location of this rental is beyond what the pictures show. If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet, location right on the ocean, yet close to Volcano, this is it. Impeccably clean. Many thoughtful touches. Not overdecorated; simple and exactly what was wanted and needed. Manager was available and helpful. A winner all around. Note that both bedrooms and one bath are upstairs.

Serenity Now

Wake up to the sounds of the ocean and beautiful sunrise sparkling on water. Beautiful view all day! Comfortable with all you need to relax and enjoy. The house does get very hot during the day, however, there are plenty of fans to keep the air circulating and the house cools down in the evening. Our favorite part of the house is the upstairs deck. Perfect for morning coffee or a sunset glass of wine. The neighborhood is lovely and people are very kind. Highly recommend!

Exactly what we needed

My husband and I had a sudden change of plans and needed to rent a place very quickly. We found this gem and hoped it would work out. The property manager went above and beyond to make sure we got in as needed, and the rest of the vacation was blissful; from the comfortable layout of the house, the snuggly bed, watching the sea turtles off the back deck, to falling asleep listening to the crashing of the waves. Convenient (but not TOO close) to Hilo and other popular areas, we enjoyed our days unwinding and exploring the Big Island. We look forward to coming back!

Quiet retreat in a spectacular location

My wife and I loved the six nights we spent at this very nice house in June 2022. The house itself is very well-equipped, with nice furnishings and open spaces. The location is simply spectacular: on the ocean on a black lava cliff (10-15 feet or so). The neighboring houses are spaced out and largely out of view, and it is a very quiet neighborhood. The upper deck provides a great space to take it all in. The check-in was smooth, and we very much appreciated the "starter kit" of fresh coffee and various household items. We loved the chocolates, too! Kudos to the owners and management. We would certainly stay here again.

Beautiful oceanfront location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This oceanfront home is a comfortable place to relax and unwind. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly. We found everything to be in good working order. Our only disappointment was that the kitchen was not very well equipped. We like to cook and found the supply of cookware & dishes/cutlery to be sparse. No dishwasher was a bummer too. A very nice home in a great location but for us the kitchen was lacking. It gave us a good excuse to dine out more often ;-)

Great location to go see the waterfalls, turtles at Punalu’u black sand beach, Volcanoes National Park and so much more. The best part after each excursion was coming “home”!

Too beautiful to believe

Lives up to description and pictures. Everything you could need in the house including beach towels, chairs, and snorkeling gear. Very clean and the beds are really comfortable. If I had one unfulfilled wish, it would be a king size bed. Impossible to share a queen with my 6.5 foot tall hubby. But we each took a bedroom and our adult daughter was more than happy with the queen size pullout downstairs and her own bathroom. The location is very private and somewhat remote to various eating venues. But the breathtaking view made the remote location worth it. We loved everything about this vacation home and wished we could have stayed longer.

Whew…

…our long term Pahoa rental is in process of sale. VRBO search of a replacement listed this beautiful house (just down the street) first and it was love at first sight. The housekeeping upon arrival was immaculate, the window design enabled capture of the consistent ocean breeze, every appliance worked and the bed was extremely comfortable. We do have a ‘wish list’ (not to imply complaints): a dish washer, and two high chairs on the upstairs huge lanai would facilitate ocean viewing unobstructed by the safety railing. All things considered, this was the easiest search in 30+ trips to Hawaii and every bit as pleasurable as our ‘old reliables’ in Kona, and on Maui and Kauai; Mahalo Hawaii Life and VRBO!
