| We recently (family of 5) spent a week in this house and had a fantastic time! I absolutely loved sleeping with the windows open, allowing the cool breezes and sounds of the ocean waves to drift into the house. In fact you are so close to the ocean, that you have to spray the windows once in awhile to remove the salt spray (it really improves your view of the sunrise from inside the house too!). The house was well stocked, and made for a perfect "home-away-from-home" for the week. The location in Pahoa is perfect for exploring the Volcano National Park and Hilo, and it is really close to the "end of the road" where you can hike in and see the lava flows into the ocean (you have to do this at night...so it is nice to be "close to home" for this one!). We even explored the west side (Kona, Kealakekua, Capt. Cook) using Pahoa as our home base, and the drives were not bad at all. I highly recommend this property, and we hope to be back in the winter one of these days, so we can watch the whales from the house. |

We had such a fabulous time! I almost don't want to tell anyone else about this place, because it was such a find. Most of the house is windows facing the ocean and you sleep with the windows open and the crashing waves beneath your bed. And while it rained constantly in Hilo, and was voggy at the Volcano, it was always sunny and beautiful at the house. Definitely drive through the jungle the 2 miles to the hot pools! An experience we won't soon forget. Thanks again.

| We just got back from our stay at this lovely house. We stayed from 3-28-0- to 4-04-09 and wished we could have stayed longer. The house is everything it appears to be in the pictures,it completly meet our expections. The views are amazing and you are just a few feet from the ocean. You can sit up in the bed and watch the sun rise. We sleep with the windows open, the breeze,ocean sounds and very comfortable beds made for a good nights sleep. Nice comminuty and neighbors. We highly recommend this house! Do visit the town of Pahoa, and walk to the lava flow. The blue book at he house lead us to a lot of great places to see. Aloha, the Jacksons |

| We had a wonderful time staying in this house for our vacation. Everything was as stated in the VRBO advertisement - the house was clean, comfortable, nicely appointed, comfy beds, nicely equipped kitchen. It felt just like a beach house should - relaxing and not too fussy. The views were amazing, and the ocean is RIGHT there. It was a perfect home base for all of our Big Island adventures. Highly recommend, will be back next year! |

Our stay of two weeks in this beautiful house gave us much pleasure; it is a lovely, well kept and lovingly decorated house with awesome views: the wide ocean during the day and awesome stars in the night. We hope to return again. Bruno and Ursula from Switzerland Nov. 4 to 18, 2008. |

| This is a very well kept vacation rental. Everything that was specified on the page was exact and true. The views were amazing, the area was just what I wanted to get to a lot of places in Puna/Hilo. The caretakers were very nice people to deal with. I would recommend this rental!! |

| This very well maintained and immaculate house was a perfect place for our Big Island vacation. Everyone in our family enjoyed our stay. The sound of the ocean rocked us to sleep. It was great to sit out in the porch at night to watch the stars, the beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Highly recommend this to anyone. |

| My husband & I and 2 of our friends just stayed in your beautiful rental house. It was a great location for checking out all the cool stuff on the East side of the island. The house had everything we could need and the views are amazing. It was neat to be able to watch the sunrise from bed in the master bedroom. We'd definitely recommend this home to anyone looking. |

We recently rented #173027 near Pahoa, HI. It was a wonderful place to vacation. The home was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The kitchen included basic ingredients and equipment which made meal preparation a snap. The view is fantastic, awesome, grand, spectacular and all other adjectives that are along this line. The sound of the waves 24/7 was music to our ears. We enjoyed watching the sea turtles from the home. We highly recommend this as a vacation spot. " Karen and Curt Bell, Michigan

Wonderful place to stay and the owners are awesome! We were grateful to be able to stay in this lovely and quiet home while being captivated by the sounds of the ocean. Short drive to Hilo and super close to the very quaint Pahoa town. You won't find a better place to stay for this price! |
