Great views, sky & ocean especially, from the huge comfortable screened porch and lovely, airy space, thoughtfully appointed inside and out. Our host Linda patiently responded to all our queries during the days prior to our stay & greeted us on arrival. Everything was in working order, hot water took awhile to reach the tap but it got there. Night sounds were a mellow and soothing mix of crickets and the steady sea breezes, with a very occasional coqui chiming in. Just 5 minutes to Hawi town for groceries, cafes, espresso, cute shops or a tank of gas. Very relaxing and pleasant stay. There was a shy, very reclusive little gecko patrolling about the place during our stay, cute and charming to our way of thinking!

We really enjoyed the peace and quiet. Beautiful cabin that my friend and I had a wonderful time rnjoying the amazing ocean view, the artisian town of Hawi, amd the amazing stars at night.

This was a perfect cabin experience. Whale watching and shoreline hikes during the day. Sunsets from the screened porch and amazing bird song every morning. Definitely would return.

Very nice rural rustic cottage with access to coastal hiking. Very quiet (except for the wind). Super dark nights for stargazing. Friendly hosts and dogs, (Specially Goldie). The weather was a bit rainy, but we enjoyed our week.

We loved the house design and the decor is wonderful. The view of the ocean is great, you can walk to shore for sunset pics. Great star gazing at night! Close to the many of the beautiful valleys in the area. This is a great spot to explore this end of the big island. Also as a plus for dog lovers, they have very happy dogs on site if you miss your pooch ❤️. Linda was very helpful before and during our stay. Mahalo

We were only there several hours but what a spot for a longer stay. We stayed somewhere else the night before and were thrilled when we got her. The hosts were super nice as well. I’d stay here again but for much longer.

The peacefulness of this place is hard to describe. Off the beaten path and away from the chaos of the tourist destinations. The hosts were all great people, very friendly and helpful, and with great stories to about the area. They pointed us to some local spots that fell right into our style of exploring. Hawi is a charming little community with all the essentials. The dogs were great friends as well. Perfect place to sit on the porch and take in the breeze and sunsets.

This is a wonderful vacation rental with an incredible view, sweet dog friends and great hosts! Feels a little off the beaten path for good privacy and retreat space. We truly loved our time here!
5.0
A great stay overall. A beautiful house with all we needed and more. Recommended if you like to be on your own yet not far away from Big Islands beaches and coastlines.
2.0
A unique property away from the hustle and bustle of other towns and resort areas - great for seeing the north part of the island and wanting quiet.
2.5
We had a great time staying and visiting with family. A couple things I have to note would be that the tap water was undrinkable (even for coffee) during our stay. The owner provided us with a large pack of bottled water which was nice but inconvenient. Hopefully that was only a temporary issue.
The second thing was that I got a couple bug bites during our stay. But this is common in Hawaii so I’m not complaining. Just don’t come here expecting five diamond hotel cleanliness.
Overall we enjoyed the accommodations and would stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay on the north end, away from the resorts but still close to many beaches and hikes. The house fit our needs well. Didn't miss a/c at all. Watching the sunset over the water while eating dinner on the back porch was our favorite. Our hosts provided plenty of beach towels, boogie boards, and beach chairs to use. Would stay here again.

The owner is super responsive and generous. The views are amazing. The house is so isolated that the stars just pop.
2.0
We had a delightful short visit to Hawi and got to see many, many whales and the red moon!
Having the moon shine into our room was spectacular.
We walked each morning down to the ocean.... and another Wow!
It is remote... so if you are looking for something not in a bubble, this is the place.
Thanks Linda!
