5.0 / 5.0
We stayed for a week on Big Island and wanted to see the sights on the North and South sides of the island. This home was off the path enough to give a sense of being secluded was yet accessible for travel into Hilo and Kona. The only suggestions would be to have outside lighting for illuminate the path. The walk to the home was uneven and the bottom step on the side deck was loose. It would be difficult for someone needing handicap accessibility.
4.0 / 5.0
Our recent stay at the Waipio Glass House was an absolute treasure, and it's all thanks to the mesmerizing view from the balcony overlooking the ocean. From the moment we stepped onto the balcony, we were spellbound by the breathtaking panorama that stretched out before us.
The charming little geckos added an extra touch of magic to an already enchanting setting.
The thoughtful inclusion of beach gear truly set this rental apart. From beach chairs and umbrellas to body boards and coolers, Vacasa had thought of everything to ensure that guests could enjoy a hassle-free beach experience. We particularly appreciated the quality and condition of the equipment provided, which was clean, well-maintained, and ready for use upon arrival.
One little setback: Vacasa didn't provide washpods for the laundry. It was surprising to learn that they cited cost and complexity as reasons for not providing this basic amenity.
If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind retreat where you can immerse yourself in the beauty of the natural world, look no further than this enchanting property.

We will stay here again, the valley tour was magical and Honoka’a town was amazing. I can’t wait to bring my family here to share this experience.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved staying at this home. It's very comfortable and the views can't be beat. We love the neighborhood, walking to the Waipi'o Valley Overlook, down the road to the wonderful Waipi'o Valley Artworks. The food at Good Eats across the street was delicious. Be sure to stop by.

I don’t usually write reviews since I don’t like being an accidental marketer, but I totally enjoyed the glass house and want to give a shout out. The house is nicely furnished and stocked with helpful and convenient everyday products. The view of the Pacific is magnificent. I’m an older traveler and I spent a lot of time just sitting on the linai watching the astonishing play of light, water and wind. When the sun shone on a distant squall, the rain became sheets of rainbows, a phenomenon I hadn’t seen before. The kitchen is convenient, the beds are comfortable and there is a small garden in front of the house that was fun to explore. I stayed for a month and was always comfortable and happy. I’d rent again.

So nice to sit on deck and watch horses in pasture with the ocean in the background!
4.0 / 5.0
Comfortable and clean, with marvelous views of the ocean. There is a horse property just past the back of the Glass House. We loved watching the three horses munching grass, and trotting up and down every day.

Nice home with great views, lovely lanai to enjoy morning coffees and afternoon drinks. Love the sounds at night, frogs and horses . Not as close to Waimea as we initially thought.
5.0 / 5.0
The promotion on this one did not exaggerate. The view looking over the ocean was spectacular. I'm a big fan of relaxing, watching the ocean, and listening to nature. When I wasn't seeking shopping, waterfalls, and snorkeling opportunities, I was sitting on the deck enjoying the view and sounds.
This was the last part of our two island trip and we were in need of this break from the grueling hikes and long drives. Waipio Glass House offered the perfect end to our trip.
2.5 / 5.0
This house has a wonderful lanai where you can sit and watch the ocean while you eat your meals. You are a short drive into a historic village and a longer drive into Waimeao and Hilo for dinners out.

Quiet, calm and gorgeous!
This guest house offers a beautiful view, complete with ocean background, some forest and field, horses and geckos! We really enjoyed being able to relax and unwind on the deck after a day of activities!

Clean, comfortable and well located
The views from this house and the proximity to Waipio Valley (and Holoka'a) are exceptional. The beds are comfortable, kitchen functional and tidy, everything was clean and well appointed. Internet worked great, we did yoga and ate breakfast on the contactless check in and check out worked flawlessly and when I needed the support of the management company they were quick to respond, friendly and helpful. We particularly enjoyed the nearby fruitstands between the house and Holoka'a. One note to other visitors, though it looks like there is expansive yard space from the pictures, that is an illusion, the space behind the house belongs to a neighboring property and is fenced off. The tiny yard space that belongs to Glass House is the territory of some intense spiders and webs and mosquitos that make it pretty uninviting. The geckos and clean upkeep seem to have kept them out of the house, thank fully. With Waipio Valley closed to visitors, we were really at a loss to find a hike or a walk nearby, it seemed like we were surrounded by private property. This is also a long way from beaches, I would not consider this a great launch point for a beach vacation. It was, however, a good spot to see a different side of Hawaii than what is offered at the resorts. From here we went to Waimea several times (Merriman's Restaurant is worth more than one visit if you have time and $ and you are a foodie!), to the gorgeous botanical gardens, to Akaka Falls. All in all we had a lovely stay and this served as a spotless, comfortable home base for the non-beach focused portion of our trip.
