Gorgeous Gated Retreat Near Ocean w Pool & Deck!
Beautiful home, well maintained. Host was very proactive and even let us know that the area the home was had a power outage prior to our arrival which fortunately resolved by the time we arrived. Pool was a great temperature for dipping into after laying in the sun. Spacious living area. We would happily stay there again.

Beautiful home with pool, on Kaloli Point
The place was gorgeous, we enjoyed the pool and lime tree!! Would stay again. great location to visit my brother.

Kai Malolo - Amazing Eco-friendly Oceanfront Home!
The view alone is worth the price! Everything was so lush and beautiful! We felt like we were in our very own private resort. We enjoyed the spacious house itself and the outdoor area. The pool was great and the beds were super comfortable! This was a great base to explore the entire Big Island of Hawaii! I would recommend this home to anyone! Just book it already!

Oceanfront near Surf Beach with Pool & Sauna
We had a great stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was perfect—close to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The host was friendly and responsive. Would definitely stay here again!

Oceanfront gated estate w/heated saltwater pool.
Such a beautiful, peaceful and private property. Postcard views everywhere you look. Clean, comfortable, and well appointed. It was hard deciding each day if we should head out and see the various sites or stay and enjoy the house. By far the quickest responding hosts we've ever had the pleasure of staying with. Our stay couldn't have been any better. We can't recommend this place enough!

Cozy unit with A/C
We enjoyed the private and peaceful location and it worked out well for our brief stay on that side of the island with a reasonable drive to some areas that were just too far from the west side of the island. The bed was comfortable and we appreciated the AC as my husband gets hot and sweaty at night without it. The frogs were loud at night but the fan helped cover the noise so we appreciated it. We didn't get the chance to meet our hosts but had a great stay overall and would happily stay again in the future.

Peaceful Private 2BR 2BTH Hideaway
Wonderful rural location tucked away but not a far drive to Hilo, Volcano National Park, several beaches, farmers markets, other beautiful places to explore. The Airbnb had all needed amenities, really comfortable bed, plenty of space, games and books to read, a nice picnic table outside with a tent garage for the car so your luggage doesn’t get wet if it rains when you arrive, and even a robe and slippers which I am a sucker for - makes me feel so cozy when I am away from home! More than happy with our stay, we hope to come back!

Hilo Shangrila Oceanfront Home w/Pool, Hot Tub
First trip to Hawaii and Big Island. Jessica’s place was perfect for our trip. We were family of 4 with two adult kids - bedrooms were perfect and the apartment across the driveway was essentially its own little home. The view is incredible - worth it for the sunrises alone. We watched turtles in the surf every day. The pool, hot tub and grill were all great - we only wish we had more time! Kitchen had everything needed to cook. It’s about 30 mins to downtown Hilo but an easy drive. Easy to get to Volcano National Park and other sites. Some of cabinets and doors are a little tired but this did not affect our stay at all. Would 100% stay again and sincerely hope to return.

Tiny Hawaiian Home with AC & Washer/Dryer
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This place felt like home in a very quiet and beautiful neighborhood. It was so perfect for our needs. 2 hours to South Point area/Green Sand beach. Less than an hour to Volcano National Park. Half hour to Pahoa beaches and geothermal ponds. Super clean, well stocked with amenities, very responsive hosts. I would absolutely stay here again.

Uhi Wai
The home was gorgeous, clean, stylish, and thoughtfully designed. Located in a very safe and peaceful neighborhood, it was easy to find and felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. The host was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the stay, which made everything smooth and stress-free. While there was no A/C, opening the windows at night brought in a cool breeze that kept the space comfortable. We slept great and felt completely at ease. The home had everything we needed and more! Perfect for relaxing after a day out. We loved the natural light during the day and the quiet vibe of the area. It’s a great balance of comfort, beauty, and convenience. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-managed place to stay.

The Jungle Getaway
Ron was able to accommodate for us during a last minute booking, and did so with very helpful instructions. He turned a stressful situation into a very pleasant experience. Place was nice and looked like pictures. Price was very fair and expected. Would recommend.

Private Home w/ Garden near Black Sand Beach
We absolutely loved The Sugar Shack! It was more than what we expected - the house had everything we needed, and the flow was seamless. Even though we arrived pretty late, the instructions on how to get to the house were very clear, and we found it without any issues. It felt like we had lived there for years, which made it so perfect for us. The location was fantastic - about an hour away from Hilo, nestled in the beautiful SeaView subdivision. We had the opportunity to check out an event at the SeaView park, which was a lot of fun. Plus, we were close to Volcanoes National Park and some stunning black sand beaches. We highly recommend The Sugar Shack - it was the perfect spot for our stay!
Wild Coastline Near a Bali Style Beach House
The property was wonderful. It was clean and in a quiet location with amazing views.

Fire Pit Soaking Tub Enclosed Lanai Artisan Home
Beautiful house with tasteful furnishing. A bit cramped if the tv is pulled out because the tv is set up on a rollable cabinet but still very beautiful and comfortable place to use as base for exploring the volcano national park. Host is friendly and communicative.

NEW- Hula House w/AC - 3 Bedroom - Hilo Town
Simone's place was exactly as described. We appreciated the welcome gifts and local recommendations. The home was well stocked for common items and very walkable to downtown Hilo.

Breathtaking Oceanfront Home on Lava Rock Beach.
Beautiful home, the waves put me to sleep every night as well is the comfortable mattress. Kids enjoyed playing Pac-Man and watching the Nena from the back deck. Coffee and the sunrises were the best. Thanks a lot!

Hilo Horizon: Cool, Comfy & Convenient 1BR Retreat
Overall, the host is extraordinary receptive and reactive of a host - what you'd like for in an Airbnb host, especially with all the selection there. Location is can't beat, and the ease of everything also stood out. I didn't like the outdoor screen on the porch (it was molded and badly broken, surprising considering it wasn't caught previously). The host had it fixed brand new within 24H. I would say the unit is smaller that photographed (I was surprised, but it was comfortable for one person). Would be tight with two. You should also know it appears to be an addition onto the back of the garage (although the finishings are top notch). That just means there are two other units that you'll need to be aware of from a noise perspective. Private ish yard area by a quaint outdoor porch. Really appreciated the touch and proactive nature of the host. Made the 3-week stay in the end a 5-star stay despite early challenges. Well done.

Enchanted Volcano Forest Escape 3BDRM Rental House
Lucky to grab this location for a few days. Accommodations were great for three parties of folks. Especially great one couple could bring their dog. Unfortunately, we missed the volcano eruptions, which started the day we checked out for home. They seemed to have everything you might need and super cozy, including the reclining couch sections were comfortable enough to sleep in!!

Jungle Home AC/Hot tub/ Near Fissure 8/Hot Ponds
Great location and available amenities for our party of 6. We would definitely stay at Julie’s place again whenever we are near Hilo.

Spacious and Beautiful 3 bdr home.
Great experience staying here, felt like on Bali a bit considering the semi-open house architecture and a garden full of fruit trees. The house is large, spacious and we loved especially the outside part where we spent most of the time exercising in the morning, having meals, reading, taking photos of colourful birds passing by and in the night stargazing accompanied by a symphony of forest noises! Absolutely wonderful. We met also the owners and had a nice chat, learning about the best spots to visit in the area. last the local guide book we found on the table was extremely useful!!! All-in-all we had a great time here! Fully recommended!

Keaau retreat
Larry was incredibly responsive and kind! The house is tucked away from central kea'au and hilo, the neighborhood is very quiet. Parking is available. There are many roaming chickens around the property but that is just Hawai'i in general. The stay was very enjoyable :) the place is definitely cabin vibes but it was nice to retreat after the busy festival weekend.
