Sunset paradise

We absolutely loved staying here. The nightly sunsets were stunning. We loved all the amenities in the kitchen as we cooked and/or grilled each night. We made use of the cooler, blankets and chairs for our daily visits to the beach. We enjoyed coffee and reading on the deck every morning. We loved our time on the Big Island.

Lush Hideaway in Kohala

We enjoyed and appreciated: - the comfortable, relaxed vibe; - well equipped kitchen, and stocked with spices & condiments; - great sea and sky views; - the expansive deck with a counter and stools to enjoy the view to the sea; - the orchid garden is so beautiful and lush, in contrast to the dryer surroundings; - I loved the bath in the primary bedroom; - and the reasonable cost. -

Great location on the Big Island

Fantastic sunset views from beautiful garden and lawn. Perfect for a family of four. Well equipped kitchen, comfy for downtime. Plenty of beach toys. Great location north of Kona, enjoyed the dark, starry skies. Good communication with owner. Highly recommend.

Tranquil & Tucked Away From Resort Areas!

This beautiful, spacious, Hawaiian house was our home-base for our week stay on the Big Island. Has everything you could possibly need including all beach necessities! Our favorite beaches were Mauna Kea and Hapuna. Beds & linens were very comfy. No air conditioning but multiple fans in every room. We all got the biggest kick out of the wild turkeys roaming the yard. And the Hawaiian book collection was impressive, basically a library, information on everything!

Perfect Hawaiian Retreat

Simply excellent. The many 5 star ratings are well deserved. The location was perfect for following the sunny weather wherever it maybe. The house was clean, well equipped, comfortable and felt authentic. Richard was a great host, both before and during our trip. He afforded us privacy and providing local insight as needed. Thank you Richard.

Great getaway

Great hidden spot. Has everything you need. Fans in every room but does get warm during the day but we were out exploring so not as warm in late afternoon/early evening. About 30 to 45 minutes to restaurants and shops. Macadamia factory/shop is close to house. Koholoa Burger and Taco is good for quick lunch and ice cream.

Loved Aloha Hale!!

This was the cleanest and best stocked VRBO that we've ever stayed in!! The house is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The view from the deck and the lawn is spectacular and we enjoyed giorgeous sunsets every evening. It was the perfect homebase for exploring the north coast. Pololu Overlook, Hawi, the Kohala Mountain Road, Keokea Beach Park, Pu'ukohala Heiau, Hapuna Beach, Spencer Beach Park and lunch at the Lava Lava Club were terrific. Communiation with our host was great. He was easy to reach and provided us with loads of useful info. We look forward to returning!

Great place to stay in the Northwest part of the island

Beautiful beach cottage with lots of charm and character. Great view of the ocean. The house has everything you need. Richard is a great host and communicator; very nice and accommodating. The house does get hot during the day, but it cools down quickly at night. It shouldn't be a problem if you plan to do activities outside the house during the hot hours of the day. Again, great house and wonderful host.

Little Paradise

This was our 4th time on the Big Island and was my favorite lodging so far - would love to stay again. There are a variety of hang-out spaces throughout the house which was nice for our group to be able to spread out. The views are spectacular, and the property feels very private despite having neighboring houses (well-blinded by fences/plants). The landscaping is really unique and well-maintained. The beds were comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure. Well-stocked kitchen supplies and beach gear made our trip even better! The location is great as it's not a far ride to Waimea where you can find major grocers/pharmacies and great restaurant options.

Relaxing atmosphere

After three days of family wedding festivities, this was the best place to stay. Quiet, nice house and great view. No AC, but plenty of fans, breeze from the ocean, and cool evenings. Even some Geckos outside to delight my grandson.

Outstanding vacation spot

This house was perfect for our family vacation! Awesome beachy decor gives the home a surf shack vibe, but nicer! Comfy beds and pillows, great water pressure, loads of books about Hawaii, sand toys, beach towels, coolers, snorkel stuff, just bring your suit! The perfect location for exploring Kohala and areas North of the big resorts. We didn’t want to leave!
