We know you will enjoy watching the ocean or spotting whales (season permitting) from the private lanai (porch) at the front. The kitchen is well equipped for you to prepare any meals.

This rental home is situated in a duplex (two family home). There will be other people staying in the other house, however these units are very well separated connected only by a carport (no adjoining walls).

Our location in East Hawaii is a tropical rainforest area. It does rain here periodically. It wouldn't be so beautiful and green without it. Additionally, East Hawaii is known for its beautiful waterfalls, hiking trails, and stunning ocean cliffs and is not known for its beaches. There are several beach parks in the area such as Kole Kole (1 miles away), Honoli'i (8 miles away), and in Hilo (10 miles away).
This farm has two free-roaming dogs on the property which help us protect against wild pigs. Don't mind their bark! They are very friendly and will come say hello when you arrive.
The owner lives on the same property nearby and is available to answer questions 24 hours a day (direct cell phone number provided after booking). However, most reservations will be self check-in, with detailed instructions provided. Your host will assume you want privacy unless you reach out.
