First off, the property manager Dean appeared to be very nice but the rest of my stay was horrible!!!! I'm a female traveling alone and had reserved the place for 10 day. My car was parked in front of the room I was staying, so I would think that's the first hint that someone was staying there. Second, the property manager knew I was scheduled to be there for 10 days. I made my reservation on the 7th of October. I had a few issues with my plans but confirmed the stay by by 9th of October. I sent a message on 16th of October and again on 1st of November about things I may need for my stay since it's so far from Hilo and Kona (1.5hrs approx to either). I did not hear from anyone until 11th of November, the day I checked in! Now it gets interesting. I had just stepped out of my shower and had just dropped my towel to start getting dressed ( sorry for being so descriptive) when I heard the lock on the door opening!!!! I yelled out "hey" and hid around the corner quickly grabbing my towel. I have no clue how far this person entered the room but it scared me (as far as I knew this person had started to enter the place). I did not here anyone knock or announce they were entering. The door closed and I wrapped myself with my towel and went to the door to see who had opened it. After some checking around it turned out to be the construction worker from upstairs and he was quickly walking away from my room. There were multiple stories from the manager...first it was "he was sent to see if the room was empty so it could be cleaned (8:30ish am), then it was the housekeepers husband (he was not on the property that day), then it was the managers wife said it was empty so the construction work could use the restroom. Per the owner the video shows that he did not step inside but I cant verify this because I was scared and hid around the corner. I would think that him opening the door is enough to be concerned. There was also construction going on upstairs starting at 8am. I have this on video and the VRBO staff could here it when I called. There was hammering, sanders, what sounded like a saw and of course walking around and what appeared to be dropping stuff on the floor. I did not feel safe staying here alone at this point. I requested a refund since this all occurred and find a new place to stay. The owner said no because the construction worked did not step all the way in. If I was your wife or girlfriend wouldn't you be concerned?

My first time , very clean ,comfy and homey. Propery was family friendly and property had all amenities. Easily was able to communication with property management with quick response. Price was also affordable.. ThankQ

We had such a lovely stay here. It was a great jumping off point for our daily excursions. The managers were helpful and quick to resolve some accessibility issues we had which was so fantastic. I would definitely stay here again.

Awesome time!

We rented Starfish which is a downstairs unit and to be blunt the noise (stomping and perhaps just rapidly moving around) from the upstairs unit began each morning at 6am. For a vacation this was a little early to be woken up each morning. The other thing of note for us is that the layout of the furnishings is odd in that you can’t view the tv from the bedroom, like at all. All that said, the property managers were nice, the bed was comfortable, and the sunsets were beautiful.

This property is meticulously maintained. It is close to the main road, so it's easy to get onto the Belt Road and head in any direction.

clean and close to amenities just like I wanted worked out great

Beautiful location, well maintained grounds, very generous and friendly hosts. Loved the space.

Friendly property managers and a great spot!

This property is a great value and near our favorite part of the island. Easy drive to South Point, south side beach parks, southwest beach parks, and incredible hiking in Volcanoes National Park. Two grocery stores within a couple of blocks.
